Which third party programs are banned?

Hiya,

I think we can all agree that using a bot to play for you should get you banned. However, I'm curious if things like AutoHotkey macros or Poe Companion or Advanced Stash Helper could result in a ban?

It's impossible to answer this; some macros are permitted, others are not.

There's a thread linked to from my signature which you may find interesting.

Automates many things; using this could get you banned.

I googled this and the top two search results were dedicated cheating sites.

Not going to bother looking into it any further...

pretty much what Sarno has just said.

For the macros though you could email support with the macro and they'll tell you.

Also, a little common sense here, if the mods you use are found only on sited dedicated to cheating and botting then it's very likely to get you banned.

* Does the tool read directly from the game memory? Not allowed.
* Does the tool modify game data, whether offline (files, assets) or online (modifying memory)? Not allowed.
* Does the tool perform more than one action with one input from you (e.g. "flask macros")? Not allowed.
* Does the tool contain any kind of automation (delays, logic, repeated input)? Not allowed.

None of the above? Likely allowed, but always better to ask to be sure. You can ask here, but the only one who can give you a definitive, authoritative answer is GGG support (support@grindinggear.com).

You can check out Sarno's guide for more specific examples.
