Is there anyone out there brave(or stupid) enough to use combat routines on their main account? For dungeons and raids only?
Trying to get a feel on what people are using after the last banwave.
I'd like to play on my main, but I'm only able to play with a CR atm.

Thanks.
 
Yep i've always botted on my main account. I just don't care if it gets banned I just like to play.
 
I have been using CR's in all their forms since I found out about it on my main account. I just dont like to play the game without it anymore. If i get banned, fuck it, i play something else.
 
I play with CRs as well on my main acc and got banned the last two ban waves (rerolled twice now from scratch). So your are not save if only using CRs.

Yup I only ever use CR for PVE. Was hit twice with 6 month bans. My main account was hit with first 6 month ban, then another one on this 6 month ban, but you can just keep making accounts on same bnet and keep all mounts and titles, so you dont really lose much

but 2 ban waves in the same year is a bit stupid, probably time to get a new bot

What I lose in all the work I've done since launch.
I lose all my toons, my guild, all my items, my legit gold and much more.
I used CR for PVE and the GarrisonBuddy from January to March 2015 and wasn't hit by the banwave in May.
From everything I have read, Blizzard is able to detect HB now, even botting in the safest possible manner.

I will not be botting on my main.

Thanks for the replies!

Are there any safe bots out there?
I haven't found any.

Botted full time on my main account I've had since 2003 and (knock on wood) avoided both banwaves and random bans despite bot levelling my chars to 100, BGFarmer all my honor gear, and using Enyo/CR to get 3 chars to 2500+ rating.

The key thing I have always done is 100% monitored my bot running on a laptop next to my dekstop, responded to tells, chatted with players often in zones and in BGs, and used manual overrides anytime anything got stuck. I was communicative and overly polite at all times. I would communicate bg objectives, complement players on healing and running objectives, and encourage in chat often. I really do think almost all bans come from player reports, and HB is not as compromised as people think.

I pretty much never play the game without at least Enyo/CR of some sort running.

What I don't do:

I never bot raids/dungeons (Although I tank using enyo and a CR, again, always being helpful and polite), I never do farming routines, I never farm gold, and I never farm mats. I never do anything outside of BGs that gives me an unreasonable risk of exposure, and I exclude 10man BGs as much as possible. I try to blend in with the crowd.
 
Yep I botted on my Main account been going for 10 years started with glider then buddy from around start of Cata until WOD, Got banned for 6months when they hit us hard,

I even used honorbuddy again after i got unbanned after 6 months to re gear my warrior and rogue in bg's just did a yolo 24 hour botting session,

So far I've not been hit again for botting but I did stop 2 days after the 6 month bans ended in Nomember so maybe I got very lucky this time.

I planned on botting my Shaman a day before the new banwave hit with Kick's profiles but i was tired and went to sleep without setting it up, Next day I see a new post saying that a banwave has it again...

I'm no expert,and i do NOT MEAN TO SOUND LIKE A DOUCHE, just want to add to the conversation but i've been botting since glider in tbc and i've been banned ONCE. It was confirmed to be player reports, and i didnt get touched in any of the 2 banwaves this year.
 
For all those who have not be hit in the banwaves, were you playing at the time of the banwave?
Also, which bots/plugins were you using?
i wish to use Enyo/CR and garrison buddy.

Anecdotal fallacy – using a personal experience or an isolated example instead of sound reasoning or compelling evidence.

Totally agree tomcruise, I also only botted with manual movement as the others have said, responded kindly, been helpful etc etc .banned twice for the use of HB. I believe its detected as soon as its attached and Blizz waits until it makes sence to make more $$ off of us. rinse and repeat for profit. WE are being botted now.
 
The only two forms of botting I ever do anymore are Enyo/CR and Questing bot to level new alts. I was capable of avoiding the May banwave, but I got hit with the December banwave. My account won't be available to me again until 6/16/2016. They stripped me of all currency and items that they *think* I gained while botting. If that's any indicator of what I'll see when I open my account in June then I will have zero gold. That means they would have stripped me of my puny 75k that I earned from questing and selling stuff from questing. This is my first time being banned since I started botting in late 2009. I think I'm done with WoW and HB now though. As they've said, two or three banwaves in less than a year? I think HB is less safe than it used to be.

Edit: Just did a little thinking after I made this post and I want to add that back when I started botting, when HB was a lot safer than it is now, I used to bot BGs 24 hours a day for one or two days just to get honor gear. I also used to use Gatherbuddy 24 hours a day for a couple of days a week for resources. I also used to run the fishing bot all day long. There were a lot of things I used to do back when HB wasn't detected (it may, or may not be, but I feel it is). The things I did then I don't do nowadays, and yet I still got banned. I think I got detected on one of the two days I ran Questing bot for about 6-8 hours to catch up on quests on my boosted hunter. I know they'll deny it until their dying day, but I honestly believe that Blizzard now has a way, some way, of detecting HB that Bossland GMBH can't code around. So, now any botting done is highly suicidal. It's simply a matter of time before you slip up and get tagged, flagged, and/or banned.

It may be anecdotal but it's also not false, or I would have been caught as well. There is no logical argument that can be made that I would be banned and I've botted for YEARS and other people bot for 2 hours in another way and get banned instead. Blizzard doesn't magically "like" me more.

Part of it could be blind luck, but then I suppose I would be quite lucky indeed.

Anyone in this thread asking about using "CRs only," then adding that they'd also used/would like to use GarrisonBuddy, who THEN complain about being banned later, has no one to blame but themselves. It's blatantly obvious that if you use CTM or automated pathing (those are logged, and are the exact same logs as every single other Garrison Botter so it's very, very easy to easy to track) you're putting enormous risk on your account simply because of that fact.

Listen, OP, if you want to use CRs, then use only CRs. No fishing, no Auction House, No farming, etc. See how that works for you. If you're going to add Click to Move profiles or Questing/BG profiles to the mix, you're asking for player reports, and 9 times out of 10, those are what start to stack up to get your account investigated. You're absolutely going to get flagged in some way if you automate your movement. You are not safe in your Garrison just because other people can't see you, as those profiles all use the exact same coordinates that can be cross referenced later by Blizzard. It's a simple check. Think carefully about that, and adjust your HB usage accordingly.
 
Good point, I will only use the CR with manual movement. No BGs, just questing, dungeons and raiding with the CR.

No bot or ***** is safe sorry...
 
got banned my self this time 6 months for using CR only for 1 hr on my main account.
 
You will get banned. Just don't f'ing use hb on a main account. I don't know why you people bot on accounts you hold dear.

It was blind luck.

"Richard Feynman (a physicist) used to go up to people all the time and he'd say "You won't believe what happened to me today... you won't believe what happened to me" and people would say "What?" and he'd say "Absolutely nothing". Because we humans believe that everything that happens to us is special and significant."

All the evidence you need has already been handed to you by the developers: https://www.thebuddyforum.com/honor...ent-regarding-recent-banwave.html#post2117776

It's amazing that people keep coming up with their own silly theories, like Taran32 above.

If you knew anything about detecting software you would realise there can never be a 100% hit ratio, some people will avoid detection by luck, sometimes companies purposefully avoid banning everyone to create doubt.

Please learn some basic facts instead of resorting to personal anecdotes and silly uninformed theories based on no evidence
