Less time, work, family... and some interest, how RNG works. Right now RNG is shit. Week of 24/7 farm of Ghom on T4 and i got only 1-2 legs, which i can wear. Other is totally crap. Dunno, maybe in other game types such as bounties, rifts, questing etc., i can get much perfects legs, but i don't believe in it. Now i know, that perfects have a couple of players. Now i know, that Blizzard still don't know and don't hear, what community needs. Loot 2.0 was awesome at early periods of game. Since T1 - is totally shit of Blackthrons, Pender's Purchase, Stolen Rings, crappy swords and amulets... Forgotten Souls at all.

I already wasted enough of my life playing other blizzard games. The grind they build into these games is borderline criminal in my opinion. I do enjoy fine tuning the bot and finding the most efficient setups, and making money in the process is also a bonus. I think it's a win/win for the botter/buyer. Both get what they want and get to spend considerable hours of their life away from these time wasting games.

SoH has 2.06% chance to drop if a legendary sword procs...

I'd be stupid not to bot or quit. Since being banned means quitting, no real risk. Plus seeing how far I can push it, 24/7 and bragging in game I find it fun

Edit: in general chat the other day I bragged that my bot overnight finally gave me Rorg, it's time to be banned

Since RoS came out, I’ve had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted to try. This requires some items to achieve. These items don’t drop. I mean, I’ve been looking for one specific item since RoS came out. Dumped all my shards on that slot. Joined shared loot runs. And after a month I couldn’t take it anymore, so I started botting. And now it’s been almost a month, and… that item still hasn’t dropped. I’ve something like 400 FS in my stash and alts with inventories full of items that might, perhaps, at some point come in handy for future builds I’ll want to try (or followers) – but I won’t start playing other characters because I know that the minute I do is the moment when that one item drops, with all the wrong stats. It basically came down to this: either I quit, or I bot. So I bot, and basically ‘play’ the game for 30 minutes a day when I sort and salvage my day’s loot. Occasionally I get a small upgrade (like half a percent more CC or something). Most of the time though, it’s not even that exciting.

Execatly my words and thoughts.....

150 more forgotten souls, still no shard or fate of the fell.

I bot because in the last 200 paragon levels I haven't seen one Crusader Set item drop. T2+ actIV+rift farming. This game is broken. Blackthorne's drop way to frequent and screw with the set item times (face_tinfoil hat).

I actually enjoy watching the "bot" play the game more than actually playing it.
