Curse

No similiar thread's on this it appears. Anyways, it's become quite clear to me that there is a very popular bot being run in JQ. They are N/Mo Blood spammers with a skill bar something like this:

Vampiric Spirit
Vampiric Gaze
Dark Pact
Blood Drinker
Life Siphon
Reversal of Fortune

This build seems to be very popular which is funny as it is not that good. What lead me to believe they are bots is that I notice that they never move out of AoE, no matter how much you throw at them. Also, they are unresponsive to PMs. I remember a game where there were 4 of them all attacking the same quarry, all balled up together, and we throw AoE at them and not one of them moved. Another give away is that after they spawn at a portal, there appears to be about a 2 second delay before they cast their first spell even if you are standing right in front of them.

Anybody else notice this?

I need to start playing JQ, have yet Dhuum banning people (ingame, youtube doesn't count) ^^

PS: you DID report them, I hope?

Even funnier, take a Mesmer in and shut them down. They become useless, haha. They are (1) against the EULA and (2) easily defeated it makes me laugh that people use them in JQ.

(if they are on the other team) just report em. if u are feeling over achieving, document it with screenshots and/or video and e-mail support

I generally don't care cus they seem to mostly be on the luxon side, and they are terribly ineffective. It's just kinda funny, was curious if I was the only one that noticed.

Ive seen a few like that with the same build on the kurz side also but i wasnt sure if it was a bot or bad players. Sometimes bad players do the same stuff as you described and the 2 second delay at the portal could be lag causing that. I will pay more attention to them next time I play jq to make sure before I report.

I could probably name them all, I've seen so many.

Heh, I PBlocked/thieveried/larcenied about 4 of them last night, and all they did was stand still and get raped by the shrines. Also saw one of them with RoJ instead of Vampiric spirit.
