Maybe switch to a better Anti-Cheat System?
All valid points! I say just make all nodes instanced like chests. So damn annoying to have to compete with bots to get any harvesting done.

There are so many bots on El Dorado that it’s just unacceptable.
I’m not personally aware of an unbroken Anti-Cheat system? Are you?

But it is gamebreaking that bots taking resources from players trying to gather materials, but everything already taken.

Well one suggestion is to outsource some server moderators or admins to take action while the devs work to fix the current state of a game thats been out for a little over a year, releasing new content to the game should not be of the highest priority. Bugs and issues related to gameplay should be of upmost importance, working on patches to fix the current metas (light armor) that was overly compensated for its weakness at the start of the game. Diminishing the abilities of heavy users. Basically, balancing the game. Looking forward to the update but my argument stands. I for one would love to work as a part time moderator/bot hunter nothing would please me more than to rid the new world of this infestation that is hardly being addressed because “it does get shuffled around.” Because getting rid of the bots, that are 9 out of 10 times gold farmers, helps the game and its current players/fans of this game. Maybe even have it out like a contract, players apply, provide information that a job would require and anyone falsely banning X amount of players would be held accountable for breaking a signed agreement and subjected to legal actions against that person/employee. But, adding a limit to so many false bans. Because lets face it, we’re all human and make mistakes from time to time. You know its bad when minecraft server mods have a better anti cheat system.

Thatd be dope if I had the skills or knowledge to do it.
Probably yes, but it is same story when extra 5-6 people doing same loop as you, so no its not game breaking. Also their behaviour does not have any unhealthy impact on economy, cuz they dont print any extra gold. If they ban them yes they do but they always coming ban, they can block X program by game’s shields but it will take day or two and he will continue botting. People who write bot programs in most cases are very good programmers, its their job and they take good money for it. It will never end in any MMO.
Moreover in New World bots are really tiny problem. Players will always cheat and try to get advantage over others, cuz a lot of people prefer to play this way and it gives them more fun than playing in normal way. Example this how it was in Lost Ark on SA and EA servers when they found out selling gold is a really good business Lost Ark Bot farm in China - YouTube .

Depending on the loops/routes that are being taken, you’d maybe run into the loop that has resources spawned and can actually harvest but if you start doing a run for starmetal in BW there is always none because of the one guy on a set path. You never know where that bots at in its run or if the starmetal node is going to respawn soon, now you’re standing there like a fool waiting for it to spawn so you know when to start your run through and even then its a 50/50 chance. Run around like an idiot trying to catch up or stand there with your thumb in your ass waiting for it to respawn to start your run and hope for the best? I guess the best option would be to follow that bots path and find out where it loops so you can just run in reverse to gain some resources
You would not know that even with total 0 bots on server, if at least 3-4 players run in the loop is hard to find anything 
Thats also insane.
True but at least its not a bot, players have there own ways of harvesting nodes. Wether it be a set path running off of a resource map or just figuring it out on their own. So you’re chances to gain resources is a lot easier. Not some script running in a bot farm like previously posted. Alternative would be to afk in front of one node and set up a macro, but now you’re breaking ToS

They should do a notification system that informs you of a player being banned because of your report. Like “congrats! you’ve helped your community, XscatcatX has been successfully banned.”

I dont mind getting beat to a resource nodes when its a player, any player, but we shouldnt have to compete with 3rd party software that enables players to gather mats while not even being at the keyboard to do so.
