Is that legit? It's absolutely legit because A-Net directly said, yes it's ok What's not ok is to use a 3rd party tool 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL Found the guy making thousands of gold multiboxing bauble farm. Relax, chief. I never said otherwise and this is clearly not an exploit. Still, ANet should really do something about it as multibox AFK farm is not a good look and it's gotten to the point where it regularly disrupts the normal flow of the map. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue D Phoenix.7260 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Guess someone's pissed at heralds,lol. You can complete T4s on other weeks too, why do it during bauble week? Plus this is one more reason why gw2 is a casual game, though its not much gold you get some gold while also working irl. What i hate, and absolutely despise in a game is multi boxing, I seen many players with multiple accounts just afk farming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just accusing people of illegal actions like AFK is going nowhere. It also violates at least 2 rules of conduct and this is the point where the mods usually close the thread 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm sure we'd like to stop further discussion against bauble farming. There's a lot of gold on the line here! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gems bought with gold, are already paid for with real cash by someone. Whoever owns those gems after that purchase is not of their concern. My point is, they are missing out on Gem sales. Why spend money in the cash shop if you can just bot with no consequence? Edited January 11, 2022 by Voltage.8027 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't against the rules the other times they killed farms like this. Once it grows to a certain proportion, it's clearly not intended and they usually get around to fixing it sooner or later. For example, the engi turret farm in the centaur village. They added those frequent area effects to force people to not stand in one place AFK farming. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiviana.2650 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 The fact that this has been on the general forum page for all this time means anet is going to nerf it. So like doric farm, istan farm , every other farm it will be nerfed into oblivion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why spend money in the cash shop if you can just bot with no consequence? *Sigh* Every gem paid for with gold in the store is bought by someone else for real life money. Yes, there are the gems from achievements, but that's every 5k AP and it's only $5 worth of gems. It's in no way, shape, or form going to change the price of gems even considering all the players above 30k AP (which would be 3k gems that comes out to $37.50 USD or not even the box cost of the game when it initially launched.) All these bots, afkers, etc. do is drive up the cost of gold to gems which, in turn, makes it more appealing for people to mass buy gems and turn them into gold (Or just turn what they have left in their wallet into gold.) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaoda.1653 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 The bauble should be removed from those mob drops - when AFK'ers affect the map's metas or bosses, that's when it becomes a real problem (and it has). Something has to be done. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
