Apologies if its been done before, but i'd never seen any bots up in Granite before. There weren't a lot so i didn't take too many screenies, but they seemed to run from the armour crafter (probably using him as the merchant, because its easier to program?) to the Tasca's Demise sign, then side step to the right and run out.

One thing I did notice a lot of was groups of characters, usually several Mo/W's at level 2-4, accompanied by a single warrior (runner/supervisor i'd guess). I have no real idea but I'd guess its some sort of powerlevelling staging area for bots?

Hmm, I wonder how a warrior can solo/kill a boss mob there.

Solo? Man, with seven Monks, no one can die.

At least a full ring of spawned lvl2 Mo/W's (on the way to SoJ?)

Actually that's pretty smart.
Even if they're only level 2-4 they can still fire off a heal now and then so the botter probably makes them heal him, no other action.

That way they always stay out of aggrorange while still healing him, he's immortal.
I want that too ='(

Yea, maybe they just keep casting Reversal of Fortune and Healing Breeze on the tank. They probably have Vent/TS too >.<

They aren't bots only want SoJ and then go back to Droks and get power leveled.

But as well as the low level monks, there were lone Mo/W20's taking the path in the first picture.. I can't imagine much you could do with a bot in Tasca's Demise.

We all know Legit monks go there for SoJ - But the Bots have to get it too.

There are single Farmers that are lvl20 and "farm ready" still there, and there are the "getting SoJ" farmer groups - the ones with a few lvl2-3 monks with a warrior (for running to Mineral, and helping kill the Guiles I'd suspect) and 1 lvl20 monks to actually Farm through the non-guile tengu groups when they get there.

At Augury Rock I saw several level 2 Mo/W today.

How do they even get there, I mean just doing the one mission they have to do to get to the desert would surely give them so much XP that they would be higher level.




^ I just went back, that's from Augury Rock International district.

Majoho you need 3000 xp to get to lvl 2 (correct me?)
They stand at the start grp only does mission so only the +1000xp and that gets them there.
