I'm currently doing RFC with 2 locks, and I'm having trouble when i get into the clusters of troggs. How do you guys handle adds with your pets? If I only have two pull at once I'm ok cuz I just send one VW on each, but if I have 3, i usually wipe because I'll have my alt VW on the first trogg, I'll send my mains on the second and then the third usually beats the hell out of me as i try and get my mains VW to take that third one off too.

Send your Void walkers in first (obviously), but have them attack your first and last target, then have the one attacking the last target switch to the one you want to kill second after a few seconds of building aggro on the last one. I hope that wasn't too confusing...You can switch the order up anyway you want, and it may be easiest to have your Main's VWer tank the 1st and 3rd if it's easier to control, but you just need to build up some threat on them all. It's easiest if you can just send them at the troggs where they stand, because then they will get initial aggro anyways. If you have to pull them away, it could get harder.

I'm tryin that out saithe, and its working for the most part, but i think my pet attack macros are messing me up. I got individual pet attack macros for my main and alt just for attack bound to different keys so i can control each pet, but on my alt i also have /petattack in with my /castsequence macro that i use on both locks. Think that is hurting me? maybe redirecting my alt VW. Not really sure the best way to control both VW's attacks easily.

I've had some issues with my pets, specifically my imps with lvl'ing my locks.
I target, then assist, then send all pets to attack first, however; in some rare instances, the imps will attack random mobs

Put whatever keybinding you are using for "target nearest" (the default is TAB) on your do-not-pass list.
Sometimes you slave character is slightly closer to a different mob then the one you want to currently kill, thus causing the "random" pet attack problem you are having.

If you're using /assist, there is a delay due to latency for your second Warlock, so it might not be targeting your target when you tell it to attack, which will cause it to pick (most likely) the biggest, meanest, most unwanted mob in the area. You just have to wait an extra second or two before hitting the Attack button.
