Pre-Subscription question

[thedoge]

Just had a few questions,

I read that the development of this bot might be discontinued soon, but subscription options are still available - is it going to be continued or not?
Does the bot allow for full start>end questing? or would I have to manually rush the bots?

1) EB closed shop for almost a week but was revived due to the overwhelming response from the userbase. They hired an additional developer and to offset the costs moved to a slightly higher monthly only subscription. So as of right now there are no plans that the bot will be shutdown again.
2) The bot does not support questing at the moment, developers are working on that as the next major update to EB. Could be anywhere from a few weeks or more until we see at least a beta version containing a QuestBot. So for now you can select specific zones to bot in, it will not update zones based off level... I think most people just manually rush their character to A4 and bot Dried Lakes a bit to level.

Good to hear it is still going, but would rushing with your main not be an immediate flag and impending ban?

I meant more rushing playing... skipping quests, not playing inefficiently. I mean you're going to have to do most of the quests in order anyways to level. And you're not going to be able to farm Dried Lakes 25 levels under the zone level so you can't rush your way to A4 merc at 25 and expect to just bot your way up. I think playing well you can get to automated botting level within a day though (long day). Obviously don't use your main character to just run through the bosses.

I wonder, who would actually try to farm dried lake underleveled? that is not what I mean, I mean full quest through a difficulty, with manual instance grinding. For example, let it run through up to ledge, set it to farm ledge for 30 minutes for levels, then let it finish A1, and quest to crossroads, then grind crossroads for 30 minutes for levels, finish A2, go to A3 and quest til docks, farm docks for levels, etc... obviously setting the bot to farm those instances for levels would be manual but the questing should be automated. Not sure if what I am saying makes sense or even is on topic. The original question is; Can this bot fully quest through a difficulty? My impression thus far is no.

Yes and no. EB has had a questing bot for a really long time, that worked fine. Could afk 99% all the way through. After the xpac, support for that plugin was discontinued. There was a second dev hired on, and he is currently working on a full questbot, that should be ready relatively soon.
