Is "duel" boxing viable?

[Koojay]

Hola! I have started to dual box, with the addition of the refer-a-friend bonus. Since I do not have the money to fund 4-5 accounts, I am only dual boxing. I have decided to dual box 2 shamans, and I am already level 15 (from a short play-time and keyclone learning session last night.)

My question is, is dual boxing viable? Or should I just wait until I can trip-quad-quin?

Everything is viable, it's whatever you want to make of it. When I first started I dual-boxed and I loved it :)

I also understand that quad/quin boxing would also be more... viable? Would that be the word? I'm not exactly sure what I am trying to say here...


Hmm... give me a moment.

Ok, what I believe I am trying to state is that could dual boxing provide the enjoyment and "ownage" of quad-quin boxing? Could I say, get to the 1800's in 2's with 2 elemental shamans? Say If I had the skill, could I hold down my own fort in AV against multiple allies?

Enjoyment is in the eye of the beholder. What I enjoy might not be what you enjoy -- for example, I absolutely LOVE fiddling with macros.

I would say that, if you have the skill, you could get to 1800's. You can do almost everything any normal elemental shaman can do. So, for example, if you wanted to experience the 4x shaman + healer comp, just find a few skilled ele shammies to round out your team and a skilled healer and there you go. :)

2 is generally more powerful than 1

if the hidden question was "Can i 1-shot anything with only 2 shamies" i would think that no, you'll need at least 3-4 to 1-shot other players.
