EQ2 Broker Bot?

I know one exists, I see the same person buying my harvests every time, in the same manner, depending on the price I set. (I just come in under his threshhold and bam, items sold.

SO... where can I get one?

This is actually a good idea. If one does not exist it should. Maybe this will be my next project.

Buy Low sell High.

More details then!

I guess a few more details are in order then!

Basically the thing would sit at a broker and continuously search (on a timed loop defined by user) for a list of items (again user defined). When it finds them it checks the price, and if it is lower than the user defined threshhold, it buys every last one of them.

I'd very much LOVE to have this for my provisioner... there's a lot of times I find raws cheap, just by accident!

One of the pay-to-use bots (not Macrocrafter) introduced a beta feature that would watch the market for you for items, and buy a certain number (or all) at (or below) the price you set.

I believe it was limited to 20 items on its list. I'll see if I can't dig up the name later today.

Just took that broker bot apart and it just buys items when they come on the market it doesn't check prices.

it does check for the price if set up properly. It's nothing more than a good macro though. And not fully reliable as far as i have read. I think the scripters here could do something far superior.

I was thinking of buying the service just for that option since I like my toons working for me 24/7! :twisted:

Has anyone actually tried it and got it working per their claims? I hate to talk about this here since it isn't a XU script but since there is no current support here on such an animal it isn't like we are jumping ship. :wink:

anyone able to come up with something yet?

I have used it under their "Trial" and it is actually pretty sweet. They need a few more features like delays in between searches and a few other things but it works.

Their crafter bot also has alot of time in the gui and is very solid. I have tried it just because of the trial membership and it is very solid with many sweet featues. They also have 24 hr. tech support and will call you via phone if it can't be resolved via email or their live support.

I have been using them for months now, it's one of the few software packages out there you can give suggestions to and they implement them.

It has been streamlined over time and the next release is going to be incredible he really has done a great job on it. Well worth the 25 bucks, Oh and unlike some other software out there you can have multiple bots in your house, it checks by IP so if you are a 3 boxer your set.
