It used to matter, used to make a company look bad. Apathy has really taken a strangle hold on absolutely everything.

Apathy.. That's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I used to own Sinus's account lmao
You know, I'd really like it for SE to raise the cap on the barspell formula from 500 like they did Temper and enspells. That and introduce an iLevel version of Shedir Seraweels.

I'm all for this if they either change the Elemental Enfeebles formula or give BLMs T2 Shock/Burn/etc only accessible to them (not subjob).

Most definitely, though JSE / merits do let BLMs get decent values on the T1's. Just make the T2's start at level 60+ so won't generally be SJ accessible and have a formula that scales off elemental skill. Heck I'm for giving nukes a base magic damage bonus based on elemental skill.

gear/merits definitely help the -stat aspect some, but it reeks of how RDM's dia3 used to be a joke of DoT, even with its great defense down properties. I'd like to see them be at least a respectable DoT...not helix level, that's completely fine that SCH has a unique tool, but in my book they should be at least on par with a Poison II or something.
Take the Crawler nest S , teleport from Npc :

I also had a bit of confusion as to where to find them, so I briefly composed this scribble:
Location of new apex mobs in Crawler’s Nest (S), map 3.
Center H/I-8 is exclusively apex fungus, G-9 and D-7 is crawlers, E/F-8 is Beetles, E-7 is scorpions, and the square is a mix of all.
Apex elementals spawn based on weather.

The one crawler area already bottomed to hell and back.
Wonder if they are going to do a new area next month.

I highly doubt the bots have taken anywhere near all the mobs, it was wall to wall 200+ when I was down there.
It only takes a handful of bots to make it inefficient, and with asura, there are probably 30
I mean ***, they pack 20 bots into the apex eft moh camp and there are only 17 spawns lul

I don't think you know how many monsters there are down there.
Even if by some insane feat bots managed to dominate enough pops to make it bad for anyone else, it would then leave all the other camps free.
Lack of Apex problem has been fixed.

That's not how it works. New camps means more bots. They don't spread out, they just make more to fill the space.
Every spot they don't take is a spot they can't sell. Even when a spot isn't being sold it has to be occupied. Open spots makes the value of spots decrease. Can't have that.
I don't have an account that's ever been in CN_S guess I have to do that so I can see how many are there (so far, it is only day 2)

When I ran down there some people in the square were killing via gathering 20-30 mobs -> Aeolian Edge spam.
There were indeed an insane number of mobs. Albeit idk how far they can be moved before they despawn.
I also think the new camps will reduce competition and hope it isn’t as bad as ‘bots trying to take every single open space’. I really want to believe our community isn’t that spiteful towards the average player.

Just to give you an idea of how many mobs are in this area. It's way more than I imagined. Very crowded indeed.
After reading some of the comments, it seems people think botting MXP = RMT, but I'm not sure that's the case. What if some people botting are doing so while they're at work because they don't have time to manually do all of their jobs? Also, what's the difference between easyfarm and automating gear swapping via gearswap? I'm willing to bet most people complaining about bots automate other aspects of the game. Seems kinda hypocritical.
They are hypocrites. They know they are. Let's not.
Thanks for the advice, but I'd rather point it out. Don't be a hypocrite because one form of cheating isn't better than another.

See now that would be a very interesting discussion...sadly these days opening that can of worms just means socktime™

And I'm assuming it's not the good sock time. Wink wink nudge nudge. :-)
Anyway, not looking to beat that dead horse. Just being Capt. Obvious.

You're seriously posting an old comment that was so obviously sarcasm? Wow, you're good. Good work detective!
Baaad.

Yes there are definitely different levels of cheating so this is silly. Especially when mass botting can easily affect other players compared to a gearswap. We've already hit the bottom of morality on this game, people openly posting completely automated 18 boxing crap or listing mlvl cap via constant botting and putting it on their profile proudly. At least we can poke fun at it and realize how ridiculous it's gotten. Any other game would have their crusaders ready for war to ban them but not these lawless lands.

I don't know how me pointing that the bowl in the back of Crawler's nest is botted led to some cheating crusade.
My problem isn't with the people who actually play the game and use EF while they are off at work or something. Mine is with the the RMT who immediately take the best area (140 crawlers). And bot it to hell and back.
I honestly think that SE needs to to put something in place that if you're not in a non city zone for a extended amount of time it automatically disconnects you.
Or at least zones with apex mobs
