HOW TO LEECH EXP FROM BOTTERS-THE GUIDE
Hello Fellow.. Freinds?

Heres a guide and or theory i made up one warm summer night while messing around in SRO.

FYI- This guide does not imply botting at all and theyre is nothing in thois guide that i think is against the rules.
Anywho Here goes.
How? And whaa?
Mkay basically this guide helps u leech exp of a bot.
Lets get started shall we.
Step 1- Find a bot
Some bots have a feature where they will go inside anyones party that invites them.
Step-2 Find a bot who has that feature enabled.
Step 3- Set up a auto share party,Invite the botter using the Invite feature,

Step-4 Trace them
and go afk.

Guys if theyre is anything against the rules in this... Please delete thread

Also put on auto item share so that the bot gives you half the items Smile

I took a guild mate (lvl 43) to penon and yeti and he got 1-1.4k per kill which is decent for him. If bots attack trader spawn thieves, you can trace on a trading horse for more hp or camel even.

Where to find your slave bot:

If you're less than 50 you can't get into the caves so thats about 1/2 the bots unavailable to most right there. If you can get it, there are plenty of bots at the strong and power earth ghosts and you'll get about 1.8k

Otherwise, tagging along bots at ujigi (49/50), penon (passive monsters lvl 54), ishades (just find a safe spot, flowers don't move 51/52), and yeti (yeti's are passive, devil's aren't, lvl 59/60) are good.


Thanks for the noble post XD

lol, well, i have thought about doing this before, but never have, have you actually done it and how much xp do you gain per hour, min, etc?

7-30% just doing this all night.
The rates vary, and really. Just something to do while ur sleeping XD

lol, nice thinking. most bots auto-join random pts in pt match though, so this may or may not work. just make sure you have lots of pots and your auto pot is set pretty high, or you'll get gangbanged while the bot does its thing. especially if it teles out of the area and you are left there alone.

im wondering also, if you were doing this, got reported, then a GM came to talk to you, and you werent there, booom ban.

Yeah thats why when poeple ask me about this theory i recomend to them useeing it to grind on enemys 2-3 levels lower, and i recomend adjusting the armor trees you use on the enmys u are fightning for this.
Its intended for strgnthers so they wont die as much.

@Physcoo- Yes thats what i fear, i do it while sro is minimized so i can see whats going on, i put SRO in Window mode (Alt-Ctrl_Enter) and use my comp i normally would and if i get pmed by that dunce crayon im ready

*sigh*

i know its a really slim chance of actually getting a gm to come talk to you, but im just saying it would suck if it happened and you got banned for following a bot around lol.

Well bacically that could happen, But They cant legitimatley do that because what if u were doing a trade run with him and u used trace and went afk and ur transports got killed and he just wnated to grind.
Or what if the person doing this dosent speak english or has sawn off hands and cant type? But i do this wehn i do oteher stuff on my PC by putting SRO in window mode

That's pretty neat!

Wow zphantom thanks for posting some numbers, that would ReALLY help.
U mind if i put it in the guide?

Use as you please.

I havent read the replies so i dunno if anyone said this already but...Why would i trace a bot and go AFK if the chances of me being raped are pretty much 95%?
The plan is good but the tracing part sux bawlz :\ Unless you set your HP auto-pot to 85% and buy shitload of HP potions which is a waste of money.

The whole plan will go to hell after you die once and all the exp you got from the bot will go to hell as well(unless you managed to survive for hours which is not gonna happen lol)

So i dont think that would work.

You could always babysit though haha XD
*goes to do that* O_O!!

To me this is the same as botting yourself. You let the botter take the risk of getting banned, while you can go and do something else and level up at the same time.

I don't like this at all.

Well yea but if your too lazy to grind just get a bot to do your job.
Its not like you actually bot although its almost the same thing.

Oh yea and set it to auto item share too lol XD take everything that falls.

I was going to say the same thing at first, but it's not. here's why:

1. No illegal programs are being used.
2. Auto-exp parties are part of the game.
3. The ability to "trace" another player is part of the game.
4. There are no rules that you can't walk around/idle outsidie of town.
5. It would be no different than if you parterned up with a regular player and let them do all the killing.

I don't like the idea either, but it's definitly not the same as botting. I don't see it as a legitimate means of playing though - if you had a bot and did this with a second character, I'd find it hyprocritical to say the second character is "legit".

Guess it just depends on how you look at it.

leeching botter is almost as lame as botting.

Gold bots are the suk though.
Dont party with them...Seriously -__- they SUK!
They kill 1 mob per forever.
Go with the bots that morons use to lvl up..Those bots who are actually used for so called "playing".
They kill much more then gold bots i believe.


And no its not as bad as botting because you get free exp and they get less.
You could just go to a place with high lvl mobs(yetis perhaps)party with a bot and babysit your char so it wont be raped by a champion/giant.
The bot loses alot of exp and you get the same exp as if you were grinding on your own XD(at my lvl at least)so you pretty much screw them over and get free exp

its same as powerleveling than?

As long as its not against the rules i dont see whats so wrong with doing it.
You cant posibbly lvl up by this method.
Maybe gain few %'s here and there but im more than sure that its boring and grinding is better.

So its for the lazy moments i guesse >.> you dont bot you just use their exp.

Ohhh you are interesting about this why ? LOL

Not really, since powerleveling is only illegal in the sense of giving out your account for others to play on for you. If you want to "powerlevel" your own characters, there's nothing wrong with that, although it'd not call it powerleveling hehe.



I'd say it's more "lame" than botting., but that's just me Oh well, to each his own, [afk]play how you like.

I thought that was account sharing?? lol

What is it called when u get a noob in an auto-share party with a bunch of high levels and they do all the killing while noob stands around?

A rip off. xD

While they're here, you might as well abused them.

It probably wont work... bots are probably programmed to initiate parties and not accept any trade or party commands

FYI guys- ive done this and its stable and Whoever said ud get raped... the bot will take care of the enemys ( i tested) and u do it on enemys 3 levels lower or so,

And whoever called me lame or this theory lame..im sorry for sharing something neat i found out , sorry for sharing it.

"Rushing" if the goal is to level up without having to do much. It diesn't work well in this game unless the higher level has near a 0 gap and a sos or higher weapon to take on oranges and reds. Even so, you only can get so much exp, they really limit it.



No one in this thread said you were lame or your "theory" (which is an idea) was lame. Only thing that was said was "lame" was the actually doing of it. There's a big difference there, so nothing to be sorry about, people are allowed to express their opinions as long as they follow the forum rules.

If you are doing this, and a GM come along.

then he should ban the botter...imo

LOL!! NICE!! Ima try it!

Any tips on finding the right bot? I've personally thought of this before, but the bots I invited never accept my party invitations.
