Silkroad Online Forums

I was editing some text lines in silkroad and found this. Not sure it would help against bots, but it would be fun for a while.

Protector will appear near the selected target when summoned. The protector is a monster that prevents auto hunting. When it is attacked, it explodes.Protector is usable only once per 1 hour.
(not implemented or activated part of sro but they planned it)

Use to be ingame, it was like a ball you oculd summon and i fanyone atkd it, they died.

it was pretty fun, though bots didn't atk it, duno why they took it out.

Because bots didnt attack it ... the autoprotector was just used to kill new players and that kinda sucked

it never worked on bots

Hmm if its still there.. maybe u can get a warrior to taunt it and have the botter AoE it?

It's no longer there.


It worked quite well for a while, though you could only use one of these in an hour or 3 hours and like mentioned before, it was mostly new players that killed it..

Been implemented and activated. They did cost 500 gold each. But didnt work on bots, only on noobs, so they took it away.I believe in 70cap.

lighting thieves have always been more effective

they worked on lightning using bots,,:) Oh and btw i wish they ocould be traded i was on greece freaking people out the other day, forgot i still had a stack of 5.:p I have 1 left. Imma put a global, selling a bot murder, taking offers..lmao

They worked very fine on about 50% of the bots,

It was tricky to use properly but it worked real fine ( 1 hour to re-use was bad, but in botcrowded area like uji it could mean 3 kill at once . )

I was still using it a week before it was removed and i have some left on a noob char...

If Any would have tried a little then he could manage to use it very easily.

I still have a few but they dont work.

Maybe in 50 years or so you could sell them for millions on eBay :')

I can't tell you how many times when I was a noob I clicked on it and blew up

They were removed cuz of euro.
Imagine you`re in a general party and some nub spawns one near, the AoE is SURE to hit it.

I think its been out since before euro >.>.

Like Joymax cares about that.

Did aoe even hit those things?

Think you're right, it was removed way before Euro came out.

Yup it was removed before euro, but for euros.

That's a first, JM looking forward to avoid future problems :o

I bet they had complaints from their partners (gold selling companies) and that's why it was removed.

They were removed during the 70cap....way before euro's were even known in isro '~,o. And Lol to above post.../conspiracytheories GO!

Remember when you could spawn the monster scrolls on bots in your area, just grind around them and they were like anti-bot guardians for a few mins. Then people starting being creative and using them on trade runs and the poor noobs farming at the bandit den. lol

They weren't removed for euros, aoe's didn't hit them. You could lightning nuke, and it wouldn't hit them. Also, if you attacked it from inside of a harmony circle, they wouldn't kill you.

I wish I still had some.

off topic, but wtf is this?:

I remember when I used to always attack that!!!
When I was a noob

i remember them yes

it was so fun i spawned 1 sayed to my mate look a ball mangyang come we kill him xD

he did first shot and he died i so loled at him on TeamSpeak

Why don't they just have like some type of Word Verification Code in game. Noone is able to attack you nor can you attack anyone.

They should make it that say for every hour of game or randomly, an image verification thing comes up and you/the player have to type that code within the next 2 minutes or you will be booted from the game.

So if you are actually in game, you can and should be able to type in the code.

However, the image verification code does not appear to players that are afk. So players that have not been attacked by mobs will not have to be verified with an image verification. So players that are stalling will have nothing to worry about.

Also, they should also implement something that automatically kicks out a player that has been idle for over 5 minutes to make room for other players trying to log in. So, if you have been afk (not stalling), then you will be kicked out of the game after 5 minutes. And when you are stalling and all your items are sold, you will also be kicked out after 5 minutes.

This should reduce traffic on servers as well as the number of bots. Wouldn't you think so?

Cause I used it in pvp against nukers and splash from nukes went onto them xD ...j/k (I'm not the reason obviously but i did that)
They should bring them back, they were fun and you could just spawn them on a player bot and have the splash dmg kill the bot. A bit trickier but if I remember correctly it did get hit by splash.

They weren't removed in the 70 cap. When i started playing, iSRO already had the 80 cap and Protectors were still there. They were removed like 3-4 months before euro.

yea it did, but bots can select what mobs they do and dont attack. And they simply choose not to attack it. They removed it from game because players caused noobs to attack it.

ya i rem ember being lvl 4 and thinkin it was a special mob that might drop sox. couldnt figrue out why i kept dying till i went to accessory shop

lol. I can't remember how many newbs I ended up killing with it.
