Typically, a bot uses a series of automated macros to control the player for you to do simple things like farm for resources. It’s a way of controlling an in-game character through automated means, so you don’t have to actually be there. If you’ve been out of the loop, botting in World of Warcraft is pretty simple. While plenty of players are taking part in the event to snag some rewards, though, one particular World of Warcraft player is taking the opportunity to spite botters by turning their horde into zombies. It’s a light bit of fun that involves taking on an invading horde of zombies or succumbing to infection and playing as one yourself. World of Warcraft’s Shadowlands pre-patch event, Death Rising, is currently underway.
