They loosing nothing. Botters are cost them much. They use a huge amount of the server laod nad stopping other players from enjoing the game.
if they ban the botters they will get a better server performance and can eventually reduce the amount of servers. It additionally may attract old players to play the game again and they will eventually hire friends to play with them. so they will sell more copy's. Another big advertange of the ban is: The botters have to rebuy the game.
Blizzard don't make any money with the game itself if you play it. They are not interested in active players, every active Player costs them money because of the servers.
When I talked about reaching the leaderboards I didnt mean reaching something like 800 (no offense, thats still an achievement on its own), but if you look at the top 100 for example you will rarely find a char that has below 4 digit paragon.
The reason is still the same as it was before...there is an insane power creep after 800 due to each level granting prime stats. As it was discussed over and over, the best way to increase power at a certain point is not to look for an itemupgrade, but simply grind paragons for days on end, since they grant more power increase as the last missng 1% crit dmg will ever do.
I was place 91 solo WD like the whole season, i stopped playing the last month of the season and dropped to 221. i think i could stay there if i had played the last month too. But i had todo a lot with my job. the Paragon really isn't the best source of power a GEM on lvl 70+ is worth a lot more, because without them you can't do it.
The real question is actually: "do you want to play for a placement in the leaderboards"..if so than YES you will most likely have to bot, as it is so commonly used, you will just cripple yourself with having only 50%-60% of the Paragonlevels of anybody else
I didn't bot and i'm in the leaderboard and two other people of our clan too. i was in the leaderboard after 30hrs of playtime without botting or any other help like THUD. Diablo isn't only a grinder, i was paragon 800 at the end. and the other two are 600
I'm place 150 SOLO WD(EU) and i'm not even paragon 800. Before was around place 500 with paragon 460. So i'ts not all about the paragon.I'm paragon 840 now and i don't feel much difference. The most importatnt things are the gems in my opinion.
