Mythic have categorically stated it is not cheating. You may not like buffbots, but they are not a cheat. It's very easy to scream cheat and try to whip people up into a frenzy to support you. Given you have valid arguments, I'm surprised you feel the need to use such a dubious tactic as this, it does more harm than good to your cause.

I know Mythic doesnt think its cheating. The most important question is whether you do and how do you justify it. The common answer is well he uses one so I want to as well. aka "I'm being abused so I will now abuse"

If I was able to hack my stats to give the same improvements as a buffbot. Would I be cheating?

Using Buffbots in the manner they are allowed to be used is cheating. You pay the policeman a few dollars and he turns a blind eye. If there was no money to be made from this practice you wouldnt be allowed to carry on with it.

Thats why you have to use the money argument to show Mythic how these things are going to destroy the game. We already have one testiment to how his fun is ruined by other buffed stealthers. Prydwen does not have enough people to support a game where you need a buffbot to succeed solo.

Buffs should be ranged, even if its half a zone range, should still be a range... after all, the argument I hear is about scouting... if I scout amg in emain, and the rest of the group are at crim or crauch, then will the buffs make me run faster (no) or be any less detectable (no), so why do I need buffs to scout... I dont, simple answer... if I get jumped by more than 1 person, as a lone assassin I should die, fair and square.

As for the nerfs... no IP, no FA, no Dodger (Yet... might get Dodger 2). Therefore, no nerf to me. I will still be killing those that I killed before, and maybe I wont die to that assassin with IP that I combat.

Personally, I hope the flavour of the month type people move on now. I was shade at day 1 of retail, when we truley sucked... dont see anything thats gonna upset me now.

Would make more sense if tanks had an 'invulnerability' RA... as in, they take no damage for 20seconds or so. Sound more like what 'Ignore Pain' represents...

How the hell does a non-caster class suddenly heal himself!?
Goes against common sense and roleplaying.

Totally agree with this.
