phBot is one of the oldest bots on Silkroad Online and is still under active development. Unlike most, it's a paid, official bot : it's maintained by ProjectHax, updates itself, and has real support behind it.
This guide covers what you need to know before paying and to get it up and running for the first time.
Compatible servers
If your private server isn't showing up, it should still work if you use one of those clients. It's the most frequently asked question on their forum.
Price and payment methods
The subscription costs $1.00 USD per week . Payment is made on their website.

Accepted methods:
Regarding resellers: the cleanest option is for them to give you a code or card that you redeem yourself. If instead they ask for your email to "load up your time," you're giving away more information than necessary. Buy directly whenever possible.
There are also two variants with their own price: phBot Cloud (USD 2.50/week, the bot runs on a server and not on your PC) and phBot for Crypto (USD 10.00/month).
Installation
Use the Easy Installer : it's an installer that automatically downloads everything necessary and places it in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs .

During installation, you'll be able to choose several things. The important ones are:
And four others that often go unnoticed:
This link does work without an account , unlike those for the Stable and Testing versions.
First start
Clientless mode
phBot can bot without the game open , which allows you to manage multiple accounts without overloading your PC. An important detail: even if you don't open the client, you need to have the game installed at least once, because the bot generates its database by reading the Media.pk2 and Data.pk2 files .
What can he do?
Manager: multiple bots at once
The Manager is a free utility for managing multiple instances of phBot: it hides or shows them, starts them up, and restarts them automatically when they disconnect.

Note: These three download links are from the ProjectHax customer area. If you're not logged in to your account, you'll get a 404 error. This is normal: log in first.

This guide covers what you need to know before paying and to get it up and running for the first time.
Compatible servers
- Officers — iSRO, kSRO, ruSRO, thSRO, cSROR (official)
- Other clients — VTC, Gzone, Black Rogue, ECSRO, RIGID
- Privates — vSRO 1.188 / 1.193 / 1.274, including 2nd and 3rd class officers, and private cSROR servants

Accepted methods:
- Credit card
- PayPal
- Bitcoin
- Balance cards through resellers
Regarding resellers: the cleanest option is for them to give you a code or card that you redeem yourself. If instead they ask for your email to "load up your time," you're giving away more information than necessary. Buy directly whenever possible.

Installation

https://phbot.org/download/
During installation, you'll be able to choose several things. The important ones are:
- Stable or Testing — see the section below before deciding.
- Manager — if you're going to run more than one bot, mark it.
- Navmesh — required for collision detection and automated missions. Check it.
- Minimap — so that the map tab displays the minimap, including caves.
- Plugins — only if you are going to use community plugins.
And four others that often go unnoticed:
- Desktop shortcut — convenient, nothing more.
- Disable Windows Script Host — security option. If you don't use .vbs or .js scripts on your PC, leave it checked.
- DNS provider — you can choose Google, Cloudflare, or Quad9. Useful if your ISP blocks or slows down your access to the server.
- Clean install — erases the previous settings. Only select this option if you're coming from a problematic installation, as it will overwrite your settings.
This link does work without an account , unlike those for the Stable and Testing versions.
First start
- Open phBot and enter your ProjectHax username and password . They are saved in phBot.ini , so you only need to do this once.
- Choose your region/server in the window that appears right after.
- Click Launch Client and select the folder where Silkroad is installed. The game will start and you can log in as usual.
Clientless mode
phBot can bot without the game open , which allows you to manage multiple accounts without overloading your PC. An important detail: even if you don't open the client, you need to have the game installed at least once, because the bot generates its database by reading the Media.pk2 and Data.pk2 files .
What can he do?
- He goes to the farming area alone —he calculates the route himself, without walking scripts. Scripts still exist, but they are no longer required except in caves.
- Full combat — attack, buff yourself, buff the group, revive others, and change weapons depending on the skill you use.
- Pulling — drags monsters into your attack zone with abilities like Howling Shout. Very useful for botting in a party.
- Alchemy — bonus properties, alchemical stones (blue), attribute (white) and elementalize.
- Item filter — decides what is bought, sold, stored, or goes to the guild warehouse.
- Automatic purchase — restores HP, MP, and stamina when starting in town, and can be purchased from any NPC.
- Stall — set up the stall in the town cycle and it will reopen automatically if you disconnect.
- Mastery points and stats — you raise them only while you're botting.
- Attack log — lets you see who has attacked you. Pure gold if you're botting in Job Cave.
- Chat — send and receive messages and notes, with a block list. Gold spammers block themselves.

Stable or Testing: Which to choose
- Stable — the settled version. If you want to boot and forget about it, this is it.
- Testing — features are released first. Tested features are moved to Stable once a week.
