Introduction

At Balrog, we have an antibot system that works in two ways: automatic checks and checks triggered by reports from other players. If the player does not respond correctly to the check, they will be automatically imprisoned.

How the Check Works

The check consists of the player standing still on the central arrow for 2 seconds. After this time, the arrows will disappear and, if the action was performed correctly, the player will be free to continue their hunt normally.

The check system has a total duration of 30 seconds. This means that if the player only stands on the central arrow near the end of the check (for example, after 28 seconds), the verification will not be considered valid, since they did not remain the minimum required time on the correct sqm.

Penalties

If the player is imprisoned, in addition to the movement restriction, the system also applies a stamina penalty, deducting 3 hours. For first-time offenders, this stamina penalty will not be applied.

While in prison, the player will not be able to use any teleport system available on the server. To get out, they can choose to pay bail to the local guard NPC or wait 24 hours, after which they will be released automatically, at no cost.

Bail

The bail amount is calculated based on the character's current level and their arrest history. The base amounts are as follows:

Recidivism Multipliers

Additionally, cumulative multipliers are applied according to the player's recidivism, considering arrests within the day, week and month. These multipliers are added together:

System Objective

This system was developed to control the server economy and curb abusive bot usage, avoiding negative impacts on players who play legitimately. This way, we keep the economy healthy without the need for immediate bans.

Watch out for the checks and don't risk losing your precious money!
