G19 Script - is it OK/valid to use?

Automating chat commands is one thing, but automating skill usage is not allowed.

By the game's own definition Auras are no Skill ;)
I am not a cheater, nor anything. I just posted it, my doubts about it, and the whole script i use (i am not "keeping it for myself"). For me, i just press G4, and "load" 2 auras on my char. I am not a farm bot (i am so unlucky that, if i somehow manage to let this char farm for 2 weeks, i'd find just crappy stuff). Most of time, i am playin solo or with friends. And, btw, i use Q,W,E,Left, Middle, Right, M4 and M5 mouse buttons as keybinds, and my auras/blood rage i bound a new key (A) so it gets "closer" to Q and W.
I am not here to "cheat" or make other guyz's game experience crappier, even cause this is a great game and an online one!
Sorry anyth!
Playin on Linux!

Macros like this are not allowed, but you might get away with this one. I don't think anyone but full on multiboxer+botters are getting in trouble. I've seen those sync macros which enter "/oos" being used publicly with no repercussions, and I feel that this is the sort of macro which would help someone who had a RSI such as CTS, and not something which gives an unfair advantage in the game like a follow-bot.

Save a few seconds applying auras when you begin a new gaming session, that's fine by me, having a macro which levels up all your alts while you sleep... that's asking for a ban.


Ion since when is multiboxing not allowed? Or did you mean botters? I mean someone can bot and box at the same time is that punishable?
Crafting doesn't exist in POE. Gambling does...and the house always wins.

Velocireptile - I LOL'ed. Which made me fart. I wish the office were empty right now :(

Hardlicker - I had to push the dog out of the way so I could get to the sexy quilt.

Hi Kibblre,

Sorry for the delayed reply. We're not currently banning for the use of macros, so long as they are manually used and not automated (as this qualifies as "botting"). We will look into whether certain functionality offered by the most frequently used macros should be added to the core game as convenience and quality-of-life features.

Cheers,
Samantha


I'd take Samantha's word on the matter. It seems that you can make all the macros you want as long as YOU are the one pressing the key that initiates it.

EDIT: For the record, I got this reply April 11th.
