The game is enough fixed. Leave it alone for the love of god. We have already seen how this "fixing" goes down every time they try to fix it. And if botting hurts (idk how.. ) that much, then there are other ways to fix that.
Sure sometimes the devs implement weird fixes to the game, e.g the last war rally nerf, but then what do you suggest for the game to be fixed? You just stated that the game is imbalanced, and now say it's perfectly fine? The devs are the only ones who can fix the game, we can't borrow another ones, sure devs screwed it up more than once, but did great things more than once too. Leaving the game as it is, is not an option, doing so means the devs chose the death verdict for the game (which is currently the case).

And honestly if someone is botting, how exactly is that affecting the game?? I mean it's not PvP botting. After all the botting and leveling up, he's gonna end up doing PvP. I't not like there's trading system. And more over on what grounds you're calming this whole botting racket going on? What sort of suspicious thing did you see that you ended up with this conclusion??
I said: "But as long as NPCs do give you a PVP advantage in an indirect way through ranks,"
For how long the legendary system has been implemented for till now? 2 - 3 years, in the span of this period, the amount of high ranked players gets higher and higher, making this system worst day after day, for the reason that chance of meeting a high rank player is huge, and for a rank 1, that's pretty much a loss. Especially with the low player base the game is at now, that % is even bigger.
Sure NPC botting doesn't affect PVP directly, but it does indirectly, if you do simple math, farming big tuna 100 times a day grants you 1.2k EXP, farm in powerhour and that would mean 2.4k EXP. That's one day of farming/botting NPCs, 2.4k EXP, which means in 3 days you can merely reach 1 rank, in 30 days that's 10 ranks, and in 3 months, 30 ranks, easy peasy, without doing anything. That's without also mentioning the varium EXP boosts, add that up, and that's 30 ranks in 2 months, 60 ranks in 4.
This means, that day after day, week after week, month after month, the game gets worst thanks to this flawless "Legendary system", and as I said, the system is great on short term but not long term, as it is easily abused by botting, meaning that more high ranked players, legit ones but especially botters will reach rank 60 in no time, returning back to PVP, to farm low rank players, low rank players will quit, and that's how botting affects game indirectly in a bad way.
My suggestion to not count EXP gained through NPC battles in the overall experience after rank 20 is a simple solution to make the legendary system unabusable on the long run. This way less and less NPC botters would've reached high ranks and now farming low rankers in PVP. Well, I can say many names, but that's not allowed I guess, PM me if you want names.
Gaining EXP through NPC battles and gaining PVP advantage, I mean just stop here and you will see how illogical it is, this is the main reason why legendary system sucks at long term, maybe remove that, but it's too late, too late to implement any suggestion. The only solution is a total revamp.
Alright, let's get back to why address "Legendary System" instead of "Botters", wouldn't it be easier and less head cracking? Yeah, well, ask bigger companies why they aren't doing that, why they aren't fighting botting instead of building their game in a way that isn't abused by botters. When I say bigger companies, in charge of FPS games especially, we are talking about multi-million companies with thousands of staff members, more experienced than the small team of AE, so maybe if we find a definitive solution to botting, we can stop worrying about this, but that's not the case till now, botting programs are getting updated, and better, day after day, find a way to stop them, and they will get back with 1000 more ways to dodge that.
