an NPC boss that gains exp whenever he kills a PC and becomes stronger and stronger over the time (and keeps his level when he dies - like a normal player does) might be an interesting experiment.

I think that would be interesting, however I think there would probably have to be some point at which he resets. If a boss were like that and initially was so powerful only a lv50 player could beat him, and the purpose of the boss was to guard a special rare item... if you kept losing to him and he kept becoming stronger and stronger until only a lv80+ player could beat him, someone else might come along at lv60 and expect to have a chance at winning, but instead get handed his ass.

Gawd - I never understand you guys - if you want a game that can play itself, buy The Sims

I don't like botting. It's not honourable to get a high-level-character without working up a sweat

matt is the more botter of this game!!!
i have see more than 10 times he USING BOT...
he attacking more then 10 monster near he in the same time, i have search for this, and this is the Keyboard Targeting Bot, at the sourceforge,the user that use bot to level up fast, nedd to be banned FOREVER!!!

Indeed that user are evil.
And i don't think that patch works with current svn

ok, if u can use, i will use too...

well, i don't use bots, but sometimes with one of my old characters i would walk into an east area, tape down the attack and autotarget buttons, and walk away... that might be misconstrued as botting.

i haven't recieved any complaints about it, though, you all know me, and that i'm a real person. i'm really set against bots, especially in areas where people come to train by hand (THE BAT CAVE!!!) that just clean the area wherever they are. whenever i see one, i just attack the creatures around them to get them away from the bot, to at least slow the lvling process dramatically.

Who cares?

The real problem is that you resurrected a 2 year old thread!

This thread is two years old!?
(Oh sorry that was probably off topic hehehehe........ )
