I this is the basis of botting right here. The more you play the more you get, and a bot would let you do things not humanly possible (play for 72 hours straight or during work.) Because of that, I don't think there is a way to effectively kill botting for those who do it.
The best you could do is incentivize things to where people would want to play them self instead of letting the bot do things for them. Unfortunately, to anything where the word 'grind' can be applied, I don't think that is possible.
Grind exp? bot.
Grind mats? bot.
Grind rifts? bot.
I wonder if at some point, blizz will just give up and make a server where botting is allowed, and have bot competitions. Be almost like watching TAS videos, just seeing who can create the best ai for their bot.
Actually this might help with botting, seperate the botters from non botters, get the bot creators to cooperate with blizz which would make it more likely they could cut down botting on the non bot servers while letting the botters have their own way to play.
Unfortunately this would come with a cost, blizz would have to set up this seperate server, and that alone is probably why this wouldn't happen.
Still think it would be worth them looking into.
I was cubing yellow rings into legendaries trying to get ancient LoN rings... I got 2 ancient Litany of the Undaunted in a row. I had to change my pants after that.
Now if only I had the same luch with The Wailing Host...
