I have a suggestion for anti bot system.
The main reason Bot exist is because there are some people that want to do RMT in this game by selling silver or item in this game. So basically if we make the requirement to trade more hard, then there will be less bot.
So this is my simple suggestion to reduce bot:
- Block all 1:1 trade, and basically you cannot trade anything at all by using 1:1 trade or via token, so Every trade must be made via market place.
After all trade can just be made only via marketplace, you can control the transaction more detail. But the problem is right now all people can still trade via market place.
So my point is just make a system that make the people that want to sell their item via marketplace must fulfill some certain requirements.
Maybe it will be like this.
The requirements to the character that want to sell their items via marketplace:
- Only character above level 150
- Must finish minimum of X main quest and X side quest
- Must complete the minimum of X collections
- Must join guild
- Must have companion at least level 100
- Must have minimum of X friends, and receive X likes
- etc
That’s it, I think by using that system the character that can trade via marketplace is only original character.
So what is the purpose of token? Just make the purpose of token is to increase the number of stuff that we can sell via market place.
For non token user just 1 stuff, and the token user can sell 5 stuff at once.
Or if you want to make it more extreme, when people meet that above requirement, they must undergo some test, like the awakening test at alchemist character.
They must face dungeon boss that is so hard to beat alone, and need to beat by joining party.
By doing this system, I’m sure the bot will find another online game to do RMT, because trading in TOS is so hard because of this system.
That’s it, it is simple right?
It will be more fun like this hahaha
