    Level 4 bots option please

    Level 3 bots are getting very predictable and easy to beat. I like doing the orders vs ai since we still get disconnected all the time without keeping our earned renown. Could wehave a option to have level 4 bots to get some challenge in ai?

    They just reduced the amount of level 3 bots there are because people complained they were too hard. Lol I doubt they'll add a harder one.

    I think it would be best if level 4 bots were added after they allow players to manually select bot difficulty in PvAI while matchmaking is set to off, in 'Parameters' (and in Custom Match of course). Because as it is, many players are frustrated dealing with level 3 bots; level 4 bots certainly won't chill everyone out haha. Especially considering that many people play in PvAI just to farm orders (I do this as well, mostly because of the PvP connectivity issues).

    Additionally, if level 4 bots are ever introduced, they should only show up in PvP when they replace mid-match quitters or empty seats during matchmaking, for players who have like, overall rep80+, and overall K/D 2.0 and above maybe. Because then these players will have no excuse to complain about those bots. It should also help in solving the afk farming problem.

    But yeah, level 4 bots would be nice. I've gotten used to many of the heroes at level 3. I play a lot of PvAI.

    Technically, they reduced the rate at which level 3 bots show up; however it's still a bit higher than pre-Season 4. The difficulty of the level 3 bots themselves remained untouched.

    Week before I was one of the people saying that these new lvl 3 bots were to much. I even made a thread on it I think.
    But now after a week I must admit that I got very adopted to them.

    They forced me to, bcs I did so much wanted to slaughter every bot then, that I had to push myself and overcome them.
    They basically made me CGB god, block god and made me much better at faints and parries.
    I can now behave almost like them sometimes.

    I personally would love some "hardcore " lvl 4 bots testing very limits of human reflex and precognition abilities.

    But as Fady117 said, option to choose level (or level range) of bots before the match would be incredibly useful aka the newer or occasional players wouldn't be slaughtered by them.

    It's awesome to hear that the level 3 bots have enabled you to push yourself and improve. I don't know of any plans for even harder bots, but I can pass the request along.

    Yes, this is the present situation as I understand it.

    Some Of the lvl 3 bots are really easy, like the berserker, you can just bait him to donhis jump attack if you put guard to Any side and parry. Hard to attack though since the boots can parry and deflect better then any human. Against a lvl 4 bot it would be impossible to attack basicly and only try parry his attacks.

    Thank you for the quick response. From retrospective they really were a new and worthy challenge, even to us players that are long in the game.

    Don't level 3 bots already read your input and react to that before any human could? I am not sure how the devs could make the bots harder without making their moves faster/do more damage outside programming them to use exploits,unlocks or, as many players do, use a fraction of their kit.
