Call me crazy but I have been toying with an idea for some months. Its mainly while I am cycling long distance and thus have hours to think about things but I was wondering if its ever been considered to bot a guild to the very top.
I am not talking about boxing 6 chars and using warp to get to targets easily, I guess I am talking about the challenge to produce a system capable of taking a guild to the very top of EQ in a purely AFK, watching from the sidelines, type of play.
Originally I was thinking of doing this by myself but of course the financial outlay of 54 accounts (or however many it would take) combined with the hardware and bandwidth required makes this prohibitive to say the least unless I win the lottery.
What I am thinking about is some sort of engine that is capable of co-ordinating a guild using scripts to determine the actions of the characters. Once these scripts are perfected the encounter is then trivialised and joins the list of targets to farm.
With enough targets the guild is then capable of raiding 24/7 (though probably would have to raid less because this would have some ppl wondering what the heck was going on).
The aim is of course to get the characters to max lvl/aa with the best of gear.
Guess its a bit of a stupid idea but heck grinding to the top is pretty dull and having the whole guild botted would be heck of a challenge. Of course it would also allow the ppl involved to create some pretty wicked characters for selling on
Flame away
