Alternative to Sarkoth. Lets discuss

[antrox]

hello every1,

so.... patchnotes might fix/nerf/remove sarkoth. it is too popular that it is not gonna be nerfed tomorrow.

any other alternative for it?

to be honest. i got a good goldfind gear for inferno act1 to fight vs normal slow enemies. maybe we just need to make a enemie-searching bot and run a 2 minute run for 200k+/hour?!!?

NM Core of Arreat runs (until that gets nerfed into the ground too)

[jsizzurp]

I can confirm that it is not nerfed in any way.

It's really not as popular as you might think.

why do you talk in "present tense". the patch is not our yet and we are talking about the incomming nerf tho.

Dank cellar was left untouched... same checkpoint, feel like there is the same spawn rate and loot are the same.

The servers are up and patched.

[antrox]

i am EU tho. 12 hours to go still

[jsizzurp]

well guess what, EU gets the exact same patch.

[antrox]

yeah... but still.

it is better to be prepared for the near future. to think about another place which could be even better, might help us a lot .

so. any idea?

[jennahazee]

Leoric Mannor maybe?

[MonsterMMORPG]

yep

it is good that they did not nerf further sarkoth

[antrox]

sounds nice. i farmed gold there some weeks ago on my own before i uesd a bot.

another idea?

Hey Guys, I like where this conversation is going but we have hurdles we need to overcome.
First and foremost. We need to find an effective farming location that isn't "known" so to speak or commonly used...
Once that's been established we need to develop 5 different programs for each of the classes (unless you want every other class QQ'ing over this).
Then on top of all of this, you need to be secretive about EVERYTHING. Limit distribution to people who contribute to the project via testing, development, coding, etc.
Because once Blizz finds out, its all for not and getting patched. I'd love to see nothing more than to run a successful bot program and never have to worry about upcoming patches nerfing it and making it un-viable.
So here's the steps that need to be taken;
1. Get 4 or 5 project managers for each class and bot.
2. Get teams to develop and test the bots and decide upon what programs specifically your using (autoit, AHK, etc).
3. Develop programs, runs, and distribute to the select few who deserve it. Then KEEP IT A SECRET.

No.

Blizzard already knows about Sarkoth and every other bot. There is never any way to keep anything secret.

[supacoopa]

Obviously Blizzard knows about Sarkoth. I'm talking about developing something that runs almost autonomously with randomization and efficiently.
A lot of time and effort, but untraceable.
