i'm dualboxing, one computer, one monitor
i run one WoW minimised, my main one up
i use the keyclone app and it seems to work pretty solid
i got to like 20 before i found this site, i saw a 5boxer running around and he told me to go here
now my mages are at 25, when i hit 28, im switching slaves to a 30 warlock on the 2nd acct
right now, my macros are pretty much everything my main does but /assist first.
so like for frostbolt
/assist hellfire
/cast frostbolt
it seems to work pretty good
does anyone know why my slave will sometimes just run amuck?
well, it would be nice to hear from you guys in the near future :D

Welcome! Always good to see new faces.

So what server are you playing on?

One reason the slave can get antsy is if you have keys going to it that have movement commands, but for some reason the main can't run. I found that it was best to unbind the normal movement commands on the slaves and replace them with slave only move keys. In my case I use SHIFT-W for forward on the slaves. The trickiest thing with macros and bindings is remembering that both characters will get the keystroke, so if it does something on one character, but shouldn't on the other, make sure you have the key unbound, or have it bound to a nothing macro.

Good luck.

i just put armory links in my sig, so you can check it out there :D

yeah, i unbound my wasd movement keys, and every key for typing for that matter
i got the idea of just using directional pad for my clone, which is how i keep the clone from going awry too much
so, i dont really know why my clone does that
i dont manually controll it at all, its always on follow
