It is pretty oblivious that bots are not aloud in pvp but is it ‘ok’ to use them in tedious things like exploring, treasure hunt, and/or arena? ---

You can safely assume that any multiplayer game has language in its ToS that prohibits botting, and that running a bot puts your account at risk of being banned. ---

So our official stance is, if we catch any player using a bot in the game, we will ban their account. ---

If you’re going to bot just write YOU WIN GEMS OF WAR with a Sharpie on your monitor and uninstall the game. What is the point of botting a game that has a near-infinite progression… just PLAY and ENJOY ---
