Look, I understand buffbots not being allowed in RvR, I mean, that's self explanatory, but what I don't understand is, not allowing bots in PvE...I'll give several examples of why:
A. Your parry/block rate is crap, I have a lurikeen pierce/shield hero, who goes through entire fights without blocking or parrying even once, hence, more dmg dealt to ME.
B. Your fumble rate is extremely high, it wasn't even that high at release of game, fumbling 6 times in a fight with a yellow is idiotic.
C. The lack of 'endurance' chant characters, NO ONE seems to ever want to play a bard on hibernia, thus there is a lack of endurance regen in groups.
D. The simple plain fact that xp gain is insanely slow, you fight a yellow, you have to sit down for 2 minutes to get yer health/endo/mana back, resulting in longer leveling times.
E. You claim to be livelike, yet forbid buffbots in PvE, which is NOT forbidden on live servers, except in RvR, again, understandable as it provides a significant unfair advantage.

Seriously, allow buffbots, it will not only help with your end game of RvR by providing new characters who don't HAVE the uber xp bonus of the higher level bg's, that extra little edge to get their levels just a tad faster, but also provide people with a support class that they can also use in RvR/PvE if a healer type is needed instead of a caster/tank.

Not a chance

You play on the wrong server. Go to instant easymode and have fun.

Btw. check parry and blockrates. They have been fixed lately.

Point.
