Watcher is as accurate as I can possibly make it. I believe that when someone is quite far away from you, or there is lag (either you or them), your client does not receive much data about them. This can sometimes cause friendly players (1) to show up as enemy players (0), simply because the default is 0.

There is also the 'stealth' mode character classes that have the ability to hide. These classes may not show up on watcher or mobfinder but I cannot be certain as I have not tested it.

Hope this helps.

Flying above mobs and then killing them (using whatever spell) works?

I thought mobs always went into evade-mode?

[jester_im]

No, if you are on top of them, they dont run. they just try to attack you but fail. You gotta be on top of em though.

No offense but that didnt seem to be clear, mind explaining some more?

Get aggro on the mob, fly up a little and you're safe.

[HansW]

i never tried this myself nor will i. but thats how its supposed to work. There are positions over the mob that allow you to kill it while it cannot attack you and it does not evade either.

make sure nobody is around, activate the fly mode or disable the gravity (set to 0). Teleport to the mobs position with pos.z=pos.z+x . where x is something you need to figure out for yourself. try different heights.
The easiest thing would be to build an addon that keeps you over the mob at a defined height.

Does this same trickery work for dungeon bosses?

[jester_im]

Yeah it does. You gotta find the right place though. Bear in mind, its very tricky to pull, and you run a very high risk in doing so. If you care about the account, don't do it. It really isnt worth it. Especially if you are like 40/65 or whatnot.

Well the few times I got to try soloing keeps, before getting banned, I had no problems finding "the spot". Actually I just ran into the keep, put on fly mode, flew through the floor and aggroed the boss on my way up and then just started killing him. The boss always came under me so I didn't really have to move around or anything.

[PharmerPhale]

Some keeps are wierd but yah - Unlike the C.L.I.T. this, "THE SPOT", is pretty easy to find.

If you're confused see below.

Does Mythic watch Vale kills more closely then open world stuff?

Sounds like most the bannings involve being reported. I was guessing interesting stuff happening in an instance have a somewhat higher safety level.

[PharmerPhale]

TBH, I have never been to an "instance" in warhammer, just SC, oRvR, and PQs. Honestly, I myself believe they are too busy to monitor players or even look through logs. And it makes alot of sense, look at it from a business angle.

You've got Group X of players all paying subs. You've got the smaller Group Y of players also paying subs but cheating. As long as Group Y doesn't anger Group X you can continue to profit from both parties.

DONT GET CAUGHT CHEATING BY PLAYERS!

[TheDipper]

Seeing as how there's no anticheat at all, and the server doesn't appear to care at all what you're doing at a positional level... Mythic currently couldn't care less unless someone reports you.

If someone reports you then it's basically required that they ban you, otherwise if Mythic looks like they don't punish cheating, they can lose way more subs than just yours.

Kinda like why they've banned almost 20,000 accounts for gold selling.
