A nice little story here that you guys might enjoy. It's something that I've still got the ticket open for waiting for a GM to hear it out. It's been very annoying and stressful to me for the past 50-60 minutes and I thought I'd share it with you guys, as I've never before seen or heard of anything like this happening.
I play on a PvP server of course. About an hour ago I joined up a group in STV for a quest, began killing some of those Gorillas near the cave (most of you guys know the area). And I realized near us was a bot. It was a level 42 mage.. I had remembered somebody mentioning a bot in the area so I asked by name if this was the same bot, and it indeed was. So I killed it a couple times, had a little fun, then gave up. Not a minute after my last kill of it, what I believe to be its master--an actual player--showed up.
This guy was also, strangely enough, a mage (level 40). And he was good. Very good. (He gave me and a 44 rogue a challenge, though only managed to kill me twice out of about a dozen battles and never once got my rogue friend down.)
Well after we dealt wih him a few times he went away. After a couple minutes we decided to kill the bot again and, once again, he shows up to kill us. And this time he had a friend with him (another mage), who by its behaviour and very precise movements and patterns I can well tell is a bot. Next thing I know I've got both bots and the real player on me and my friend, and we're in a tough battle.
Though it was hard overall to deal with 3 players, my friend and I finished them off. Simple enough as bots are easy to kill. We start questing again to get the required items, and then after about 5 minutes he shows up again with both bot friends. And after another tough battle, he begins to flee towards Booty Bay to avoid death.
So we get near BB and manage to get him killed before that. But seconds after he dies, Bot1 springs to life and starts killing me--this time obviously controlled by a person. Challenging as it was to kill her, as this guy was extremely skilled at mages, I managed it, and I ran to the mouth of Booty Bay to regen and rez my pet and rest for a few.
Only moments later Bot1 shows up again, controlled by a person still quite obviously. But she doesn't do anything, only tries to lure me and my rogue friend out. We've had enough PvP against this guy for now and don't bite. So just a few minutes later strangely enough a random enemy approaches us and begins banging on us at the mouth of Booty Bay, ingoring the guards. I looked at the name and it was identical to Bot2's, save the fact that the word "Mage" within the name was changed to "Shaman" and it was, of course, a shaman.
So after about an hour I'm sitting here now in Booty Bay with a guy and his 3 bots after me. If I leave I'm as good as dead. And the GM is taking way too long to respond.
Have you guys ever had anything similar to this happen? And have any of you even seen 3 bots and their master at once? (lol)
