I need to change the bot presence from an outside event loop, but it does not appear to be possible from the Http low level API (?).

the bot presence is handled over the gateway, depending on how you are handling this task, you should have access to the Client, which has the ShardManager, which contains the ShardRunnerInfo for all the shards, which then contain the ShardMessenger which you can set the presence from.

That did it. Thanks.
