    Default My Boxing Set up - would love some feedback

    I've been boxing for a year now. Here's my toons:
    Paladin
    Shaman 1
    Shaman 2
    Shaman 3
    Shaman 4

    I use ISBoxer, set up 5 windows on one monitor.

    In game, I don't use any add ons, other than ISBoxer. I tried Jamba, but the auto-follow function freaked me out when phasing between zones. I don't fully understand it, but I'll investigate it eventually.

    Foot Pedal: (Just got this for xmas, haven't set it up yet)

    My Mouse: (used to have the plastic WoW mouse. One of the buttons broke, so it's at work now)
    http://www.amazon.com/Razer-Naga-Las.../dp/B002MPPRPO


    4 - ; key - Ghost Wolf
    5 - ' key - Spirit Walker's Grace (...I haven't ever used this cause I suck)


    1 - F6 - Flame Shock + Lava Burst
    2 - F7 - Lightning Bolt
    3 - F8 - Chain Lightning
    4 - F9 - Earthquake
    5 - Home - Interact with Target
    6 - F11 - Turn in place
    7 - , - Follow main window
    8 - Up - Tooms step forward
    9 - . - Toons Spread out
    10 Left - Toons Straif left
    11 Down - Toons step back
    12 Right - Toons Straif right

    My Keypad: (OMG, I love this. I've got a regular USB keyboard and this wonderful device)
    http://www.amazon.com/Ideazon-ZGP-10.../dp/B000FRW8KS


    Top Row:
    Map - Opens the maps on all screens
    B - Sync all toon's cameras together (to share the same view)
    K - Eat / Drink

    Switching:
    F1 - Window 1 (toon 1)
    F2 - Window 2 (toon 2)
    F3 - Window 3 (toon 3)
    F4 - Window 4 (toon 4)
    F5 - Window 5 (toon 5)
    Tab - Switch enemy target
    T - Hex Round Robin (for this I used ISBoxer's Example Round Robin = Hotkey = T, sent key = End)

    Travel:
    Y - Flying mount (3 toons have recruit a friend rocket. This RULES!)
    U - Grount mount (leader has the merchant mammoth. I recommend buying this!)
    i - unused (Fire elementals - needed a button for it, :P)

    Cooldowns:
    G - Earth elementals (shaman) + Guardian thing (paladin)
    H - Bloodlust (shaman) + Wings (paladin)

    Attacks:
    1 - Avenger's Shield (paladin only, other toons have nothing on button 1)
    2 - Single Target Paladin Tanking (macro below)

    /click MultiBarRightButton1
    /click MultiBarRightButton3

    On MBRButton 1
    /startattack
    /castsequence reset=combat Judgement, Crusader Strike, Crusader Strike, Crusader Strike, Shield of the Righteous

    and MBRButton 3
    Crusader Strike

    ...not sure why I have to have Crusader Strike on MBRButton 2, but without it, crusader strike never happens...

    3 - Multi-target Paladin Tanking (macro below)

    /click MultiBarRightButton2
    /click MultiBarRightButton3

    On MBRButton 2
    /startattack
    /castsequence reset=combat Judgement, Hammer of the Righteous, Hammer of the Righteous, Crusader Strike, Shield of the Righteous

    and MBRButton 3
    Crusader Strike

    ...again, no clue why I need it a 2nd time, but I won't CS otherwise.

    NOTE: When I tank with my pally, I'm spamming 1 and 2 SIMULTANEOUSLY. Avenger's Shield is so darn important and spamming 1 and 2 (or for more than one target 1 and 3) works well.

    4 - Shaman DPS (macro below)

    /use 9 (engineering hand rockets)
    /use 13 (trinket 1)
    /use 14 (trinket 2)
    /cast blood fury (need to change this when I switch to full gobbo team)
    /cast elemental mastery
    /click MultiBarLeftButton1
    /click MultiBarLeftButton2

    MBLButton 1
    #showtooltip
    /castsequence reset=combat Flame Shock,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt,Earth Shock,Lightning Bolt,Lightning Bolt

    MBLButton 2
    Lava Burst

    5 - Healing Surge (I use a focus macro to heal the paladin: /cast [target=focus] Healing Surge)
    6 - Riptide (another focus macro to heal the tank: /cast [target=focus] Riptide)
    7 - PvP Totem Set
    8 - Secondary PvE Totem Set
    9 - Main PvE Totem Set
    10 - Tremor Totem Round Robin
    11 - Earthshield (another focus macro on the tank: /cast [target=focus] Earthshield)

    Buffs:
    - - Weapon Buffs (shaman) + Seal of Truth (paladin)
    * - Shields (shaman) + Righteous Fury (paladin)
    / - Totemic Recall

    Shocks:
    + - Lavaburst (conviently directly above Flame Shock)
    PageUp - Frost Shock (shaman) + Hammer of Justice (paladin)
    PageDown - Flameshock
    O - Windshear + War Stomp

    Self Heals:
    P - Healing Surge (shaman) + Holy Light (paladin) Self
    L - Lesser Healing Wave (shaman) + Flash of Light (paladin) Self
    V - Thunderstorm

    Misc:
    J - PvP Trinket
    Jump - Jump
    E - Chain Heal
    Q - Unused (used to be start melee)

    Things I click:
    Ardent Defender
    Divine Guardian
    Holy Radiance
    Lay on Hands

    Things I need:
    Cleanse
    A good Hex + Bind Elementals set up - wish there was a way to cycle targets and hex a room! I was thinking about setting it up so the toons hex / bind a target based on the raid icon floating over its head
    Mana Tide Totem

    I'm sure I'm missing some potential - any suggestions?

    Thanks all!

    Lots of information there.

    I use a normal keyboard, plus some of my G15 keys.
    Most of my stuff is done via keybind.

    My mouse has two thumb buttons.
    One is for my follow mapped key.
    The other varies with the team.
    And then I use the keybind approach.

    As long as you know which button does what ability.
    And can use them to react quickly, without thinking along the lines of "Which button is Flame Shock"...
    Learning the devices, isn't really any different than learning keybinds.



    Multiple presses of Tab will cycle through targets.
    You could have one key to clear all Focus targets.
    And another, for each Shammy to Focus the current target if they don't have a Focus, or otherwise cast Hex at their Focus if they do have a target.

    Then you would cycle through the bad guys, having each Shammy assist the Pally and in turn press their Focus set key.
    Possibly have a third button, which has all Shammies cast Hex at their Focus, should a Focus target exist.

    Sorry if it was a bit excessive, I've been directing other boxers I chat with in game to this awesome community and now I can send them to a specific post which contains my set up.

    What I like about the fang is my fingers need not travel far to hit a button. Since ISboxer takes away the ability to hit shift, alt, and control, I wanted a compact set of keys close by.

    I'm currently FTL (except for my 3 heals), so I typically cycle through manually and hex. I just mess up sometimes and accidentally cast on a previously hexed target. I'll get better with practice.

    Thanks!

    I still can not get the dang mouse over macro, combo with Mouse4 or Mouse5 button to work properly. I want to have a universal heal and mount button. I hate pressing CTRL+(another key) to do this. HATE it. ISBoxer doesnt seem to work well with mouse buttons... at least the last time I talked to Lax it didnt. it was fickle.

    If you want modifiers...

    I forget the user who did this.
    But, it is a guide on the IS Boxer site.

    Create a new Keymap.
    And put a bunch of alternate keys in it.
    For example, your normal hot keys might be: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
    So you would put mapped keys in the new Keymap which use the same keys to execute.
    But these alternate mapped keys have a different action.

    Then create a two-step (toggle) mapped key.
    Set it to execute a step on press or release.
    Set one of your mouse buttons as the hotkey.
    Set it (Step 1) to disable your normal Keymap where 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc do things.
    And (also Step 1) to enable your alternate Keymap, where 1-5 do different things.
    Then on Step 2, do the reverse, ie, revert everything to default state.

    Now, while you hold the mouse button down.
    Your device which sends whatever keybind to IS Boxer..
    Triggers a different action than normal, from the same keybind.
    But once you release your button, everything acts normally.

    Essentially, you've turned a button or key, into a modifier key.
