Botting on EU accounts from the US

[Demonspawnn]

I live in the US and have botted exclusively on US accounts, but I have thought about trying out some EU accounts, due to the fact that I can get them considerably cheaper. Before I commit to it, I have a few questions though...

1. I have heard from multiple people that EU servers tend to be less risky as far as bans, and that first offenses are usually 72 hours instead of perma-bans. Can anyone confirm this/give me your experiences for people who have botted US and EU?

2. Will playing from a US IP on EU servers work? Will I be more at-risk for a ban?

3. What is the gold selling market like? On my US accounts I usually get $0.5-0.8/k selling to resellers. How is the price on EU? I'm willing to take a hit on my profit if it means more account security. More uptime = higher overall profit.

4. Last of all, if I do make accounts on EU servers, how can I make sure it is an English speaking server? I have no experience on EU servers at all, so I'm not quite sure how this works. Are servers divided by language?

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to respond!

1. Usually it is like that yes, if they aren't 100% sure that u bot.
2. I'm botting on US from EU and i think it doesn't really matter.
3. Price on EU is like 0.3-0.4$
4. You see at server selection English,German,French etc.

You can also choose to use a v p n (hidemyass.com or strongv p n.com)to mask your IP being from the US. A whopping $15 a month and your IP can be amsterdam all day every day.

I bot primarily US servers, but I use a *** to help a euro buddy of mine that bots but knows nothing about the game.

On US theres more risk but more reward, just depends on what your philosophy is.

Thanks for the replies. I'm still planning on running the majority of my accounts on US servers, but I'm probably going to get 2-4 EU accounts going. High risk/high reward is where the money is at, but a few low risk accounts will help in case of bans on my US accounts.

Hah I was thinking of starting up some US accounts as the price on EU is so rubbish.

Yes, Blizzard - EU have more relaxed approach to botting, infractions, appeals and the general population of Azeroth seems to be more understanding.

2. Will playing from a US IP on EU servers work? Will I be more at-risk for a ban?

Doubtful. I play with a EU IP on both EU and US realms and I never ever had issues related to the origin of my IP. Sometimes you may experience a bit higher than usual latencies due to geographical distance and raid times may not be very convenient for you, but that's all. You may need to provide at some point a Photo ID to prove who you are, though.

3. What is the gold selling market like? On my US accounts I usually get $0.5-0.8/k selling to resellers. How is the price on EU? I'm willing to take a hit on my profit if it means more account security. More uptime = higher overall profit.

Gold is typically cheaper on EU.

4. Last of all, if I do make accounts on EU servers, how can I make sure it is an English speaking server? I have no experience on EU servers at all, so I'm not quite sure how this works. Are servers divided by language?

They are divided by Language. You will see different tabs, showing the realms in groups like English, German, etc. Always go for the Full or Locked realms, as these have very high populations and lots of potential customers with lively game economies.
