There usually is a bot cleanup each reset , but I didnt notice any bot reduction this week - quite the opposite. About one hour after servers opened after reset I found a series of bot farming on the island I usually go to for excavating (a new one spawns after the first has exhausted life energy), making impossible for me to do what I was there to do. And, however quick, a bot cannot get to sailing level in an hour.
Also, same day half an hour before, yudia had a crowd of bots running around (usually you see none or just one or two) - I was there for a una task and they were coming non-stop.
Today I went to Atlas for a rapport quest and this was after 5 mins
I just stayed there to kill them just because I always wish for world pvp when I see them around stealing my relics - although I’m no good at pvp - and I goy some small satisfaction in killing them
I actually outlined why no bot clean-up this week is a huge problem in another post; basically bots cannot be allowed to progress to Thronespire or else they will be able to use hacks to complete the content to reap 15k+ gold in rewards. This is pretty much the bot “endgame”, and it a huge reason why orange honing books and legendary Grudge is so cheap relative to where its price was.
