What is Firy?
Firy is one of the first bots for Guild Wars 2.
From what I have been told, by different people, it is the most advanced and best bot for GW2 at the moment (September 11
th).
It is made by the MmoLazy team who has developed bots for
World of Warcraft and
Tera as well.
At the moment my character is only level 53, so I cannot test it for end game content or end game farming, however, I might update the review later.
What do MmoLazy say about Firy?
- Firy runs on all windows system from XP to 7. Although we recommend Windows XP SP3 or higher.
- You’ve got knowledge with .NET ? We let you develop your own plugins for Firy in order to load it in the bot.
- In addition to all Firy features you can also watch the way your characters are running directly from our website.

Review
Setting it up - 3 out of 5
I think the bot is somewhat easy to setup, IF you have used a bot before. The combat system is fairly simple, but will require some tweaking to be very good. For those of you who used Immortal Bot for D3, it is somewhat the same! The reason for it to get only 3 out of 5 is because of difficulty of setting up combat and fighting routines.
Creating paths – 4 out of 5
Creating a path is very easy. The automapper and the radar make it very easy to create paths.
XP per hour
I am currently doing 40000 xp per hour which gives me 1½ hour per level. At level 55 that is and my first ever profile created with Firy.
Collectables – 5 out of 5
The bot has the option to deposit collectables which makes it very suitable for gathering and farming at end level. From what I have heard on IRC, people are already working on farming routes for level 80
Gathering and grinding – 4 out of 5
Gathering works flawlessly and combined with the collectables option, I can really see this bot doing wonders at level 80. Furthermore, I see how well it is grinding mobs at a little above my level and it is like watching a hot knife going through butter.
Issues
I have personally experienced some issues along the way and here are some of them. However, remember that the bot is NEW and therefore, most of these bugs will hopefully be fixed sooner or later.
Water
The bot DOES NOT like water - at least that is my experience with it! The only times that I have had issues with it has been because of water. So to be just, I will try to create a new path that doesn’t go into water.
Poison clouds etc
The bot does not move away from clouds, like “jungle troll” poison clouds, which restricts it quite a bit in my honest opinion.
No multiple mobs “profile”
At the moment there is no option on how to react if the bot encounters more than 2 mobs. In my opinion that is a bit of an issue as it should do things differently when there are more than 2 mobs.
EDIT: Apparently the “need ground targeting” can be used for AOE situations. I haven’t tried it yet, if someone has, please let me know how it works.
Crashing
A known issue is that the bot is/can cause gw2 to crash, however, the developers are aware of the issue and working on fixing it.
To sum it up
Firy is a very promising bot with some issues. The fact that it doesn’t really handle water well is an annoyance to me and something that the devs must work on fixing. The same goes for the lack of moving away from poison clouds etc. That being said, the Bot DID level up in 1½ hour, from pure grinding for me. It did send collectables to my collection and the vendor options worked flawlessly for me and managed 2 levels from first time usage
The bot has a great potential and with some minor fixes it can be really outstanding. Also keep in mind that the community is new and there are not many user created addons out yet.
So all in all I would give it 3½ out of 5 – close to 4 out of 5 , but I had a crash so that takes ½ a point away.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions.
