Questions from new tankleader owner.

[Holster99]

Hi there
I have only played with tankleader for a few hours but I have some questions to the more routine players.
My first basic thought is that Tankleader plays much worse than I do, therefore I ask you guys how to optimise those very few optimisations points there are in Tankleader.

What is the best form for aim / targeting?
I use the new experimental + clever mode.. I don't believe it is very clever. I am considering to use the tier or closest. What are you guys using?

Are you guys using the wait 20 - 30 sec before moving? I believe it even more shows I am a bot + I am way behind the other players.

I have botted in WoW and EvE, so I am not new to bots.

The bot will play worse than you no matter what. A 100% botted account has 44% win ratio; it is very easy WG to find these accounts and keep watch on them. I know I have a 100% botted account EU server 7k battles 44% win ratio and only has 2.5mil exp total on the account. When I do hand play I get flamed in game chat because of my statistics. A Hand played account will have 50-60% more exp gained and an easily 10-11% better win ratio than a botted account. The bots soul purpose is to farm exp and credits not to win you Clan War invites. If your botting to gain amazing statistics then do not bot it will only crash it. Just leave the settings alone and farm farm farm.

here are some notes http://www.thebuddyforum.com/tankleader-forum/112559-risk.html

Hi Holster,

yes atm the bot isn't very clever (dev's workin on it in TL2) just some ideas for better understanding...

1. When the bot moves right from the start of the match, it will definitly ram other players, try to navigate around them and ram more players, so the chance of being reported is very high ---> solution tunr the spawncamping on
2. Targeting mode clever suckz atm, because the bot decides every few seconds which target to fire at, which means if there are more than 1 target it can possible be that he switches targets without shooting a single round especially when the enemies take cover behind rockz or buildings ---> solution targeting mode nearest distance works for me the best

Don't hatin, but if u are a experienced boter most of the things said should be obvious for u but anyway have fun boting the game since it's a really hard grind without it and in the high tier tanks 8+ it is even nearly impossible without spending real money in the game... that's the way Free-MMO-Games work

greetz fl4sHb4nGeR?!

Hi guys thx for your reply.
I was nice to see that the clever wasn't very and it wasn't just me.

I am not hating, the bot is farming rather a lot of silver, due to the l?we, but, in my case, it halters with xp.. the xp are moving slowly.
Thx for the win ratio information, that is a awesome information.

I noticed there are a few difference in how bots are constructed. Tankleader and my wow bot (they got sued by blizzard) reads data from the memory as the game goes along, the eve bot I used read the screen. It simply moved the courser over the screen and read the info. Very interesting to watch.
I do not know what I expected, but I was thinking the aiming was sort of the fps games where the targeting is based on data in the memory and not by auto targeting. Since I would love some more kills on the tanks so I can harvest more xp.

But the bot plays when I cant be bothered.. and that in it self is awesome.

And I'm playing without premium account and it seems not to have any effect, other than lower xp and silver...

Lowe/IS6 will get you banned bot at your own risk you need to bot tier 6 or below. Teir8+ bracket is death for bots

If you are new with WOT, maybe you need to check first, what tank you want to use after bot is grinded it up and only way to get that information is read their tankwiki. It take some time to read but its better concentrate than scatter your effort around. If you have invite or promo codes use them to get premium time, but like fellow botters allready said, "higher the Tier, higher is risk", maybe TL2 improve things, but its not silverbullet what take out risk.

Thx for info...
I played WoT since beta, but now "hard core" I got a little tired of the hours you had to put in to do clan battles. eg I do not have a tier 9 nor 10 yet. That is why I bought Tankleader to get a higher tier tank.

I understand the risk get higher at higher tiers because people might actually care to spot bots more often than on lower tiers. Even though I was on a tier 3 map and there where around 4 bots on my team. (20 - 30 sec pause before moving is a real tell-tail)

I have decided to aim with distance, I believe it might be the way to go - any thoughts on that?

I can believe that tankleader becomes more efficient with premium, but it grinds prefect for me without premium, even though it is slower than on premium.
