Are VPNs Foolproof?

[Marodox]

Hey guys,

I am currently using HB and plan to start some gathering and questing. I was just wondering if it was worth getting a VPN, preferably PingBuster, to use while I am botting. I would not jump between IPs often to make it look realistic. If somehow I got banned, what are my chances of getting the account back if I used PingBuster correctly?

Thanks guys
Maro

Edit: I am only botting 1 account.

thats worth a try,better than non,if got banned you maybe able to call them and act like acc got hacked and ask for restoration.

If you're technically minded, or can follow instructions easily, I always found it easier to buy a VPS from a different country and set up a VPN on it. That way, the IP is unique to you, and only you. You're not sharing with with 100 other people at the same time.

Why? For two reasons.

1) It appears you're logging in from another country. IE if you're in the US, buy a UK, Netherlands, Malaysian one.
2) You can use this exact same service to log onto battle.net and change passwords and information if necessary. If you use Pingbuster, you only log into the actual game from another IP, and any battle.net activity will be on your real IP and Blizzard can see this. If you use a VPN you set up yourself, all activity can be in another IP, which really makes it look like you got hacked.

This is how I'd personally do it. Play by hand for a few days then don't log in for a few days. After a couple of days, use your new VPN to change email, change password and start botting. This really looks like you were hacked to Blizzard.

Then again, if you do not want to go to the trouble of setting it up by hand (only takes 10-15 minutes if you know what you're doing or can read and follow instructions well), Pingbuster should do the job if the location you choose is far away from your residence.
