What is the point of VMware

[PapaBash]

if archebuddy can run over proxy, spoofes your HWID and Mac? With those 3 modifications there is no further benefit to use VMware or am I missing something?

There is always a chance that archebuddy can be detected. To stay safe i only play my main through glyph and my 2 bots on vmware with proxy.

vmware is always safer, you have a differend HWID and MAC, plus you can just set a VPN to the entire system and not have to worry about anything .

Main advantage is you can run two game clients on one machine. Other is VPN, sometime proxy can leak. But, not worth headache, I couldn't get VM to work and gave up.

Archebuddy already switches your mac and HWID for every account in the accountmanager according to out. The vmware also doesnt help if archebuddy is detected - vmware or not all accounts are gone.
The CPUID for your Chip is the same in the VMware as in the original host system.

Can you not start 2x archeage via archebuddy on the same PC? I didnt test it yet, but there are several people that say, that they are using e.g. 2x AA on a single VM which would be technically the same.

The leaking part is valid though, but I am also having such difficulties getting AA to run properly in a VM enviroment, that it is hardly worth the time.
