    Default Multiboxing With MiRai

    I upload (almost) all of my videos directly to the D-B Commons, but I know not everyone pays attention to that or even knows that it exists, so I'm creating this thread for a little extra exposure. I'm unable to stream because my internet is on par with speeds from 2003, so I rigged up a bunch of stuff to record myself playing -- Hopefully I'm doing it right.

    Having to come up with semi-interesting conversation at the same time while playing can be a challenge, so I ask that you bear with my ridiculous commentary. These videos aren't meant to show off how much DPS I can do or how better I am at multiboxing than the next person (because I'm pretty terrible) nor should they necessarily be used as a "How To" for specific instances -- It's just going to be a video series for the purpose of fun, entertainment, and nostalgia (until I eventually move into the current expansion).

    -------- New --------

    RaF Leveling (Post 6.0):

    While leveling some new sets of teams through dungeons I figured that I'd partially follow the progress of one team during their journey. I say partially because this RaF Leveling series actually stops when I reach the WotLK instance since I've already done all of them on video, and I'm trying to save the Cataclysm instances for whenever I get around to doing their heroic versions.

    With that said, I will be following up with two other separate series of videos with just pre-70 old school instances and pre-80 heroics, so if this team didn't get thrown into an instance that you'd really like to see, then you shouldn't worry because I'll eventually get around to doing it.

    I am in full heirlooms and am using the LFD tool the entire way minus the very first video.

    -------- Old --------

    Wrath Heroics (Pre 6.0):

    This first "episode" was more of a pilot test run and it contains both Utgarde Keep and Utgarde Pinnacle (heroic) -- Future videos will only contain a single instance and will hopefully be much shorter.

    I was just logged into nodiatis, a browser game I left 4 years ago or so.
    And I couldn't help it but think about an old screenshot I once took in that game when seeing you on camera.
    Finally knew who modelled for it!

    Btw, the talking on camera works really well and is enjoying!

    Looks amazing. Are you combining the videos or is that how you recorded it?

    Thanks. Yeah, it's a three-way type of setup where I'm using an actual video camera, my regular mic, and then FRAPS to do my screen capture. I take all the raw footage and sync it together to make the video.

    It was very entertaining, *and* useful, MiRai. Thank you. For us newcomers it is extremely useful to show how MB can be used for fun, as opposed to using it just to level some toons.

    Your video coaxed me into taking my 3-man team (heals, tank, dps) into UK (regular) and trying to complete the instance. This is the first time I've been in an instance with my leveling toons. I wiped several times on Keleseth, but along the way I leveled from 71 to 72 and that pushed my dps enough that I managed to kill him. Woohoo! I'm still working on the final boss (the second double-boss was cake) but your video convinced me that it was possible, and gave me some clues on how to do it.

    I can hardly wait until I get this team to 80 and then start a new 5-man team which I plan to level all the way from 10 in dungeons.

    You are the man, MiRai. Do it some more, please!

    EDIT: I made it to 80 with this team - did all the dungeons from UK to Gundrak in 3 days. Went from 70 to 80. Sweet. Now putting together my 5-man team.

    Unpretentious videos FTW. Good overview leavened with sprinklings of wisdom here and there. Well done.

    Thanks. Hoping to get some more of these videos released over the next week, but first I'd like to fix a few things both on my UI and in ISBoxer before doing so. I'd like the next video to be a quick overview of my UI and ISBoxer profile because I'm already getting questions on those and it's going to be easier to just refer people back to a video than constantly repeating myself in comments and PMs.

    Nice movie - wish my UI could be that simple.. I have such a cluttered one!
