Hello,

somehow it's the ultimate ego-trip. Multi-boxing. I was considering it for a long time and now I do see it approaching.

My idea is to play 4 warlock + heal using 5 boxes, a main and 4 small adds. I don't feel comfortable with the idea of using all on one hardware.

My healer (Paladin/Druid) it supposed to be my main char and the quad-dot/dps strikeforce my help.

Worries I have:

- I want to use mouse on a multi-desktop but broadcast all keys and be able to turn of broadcasting and only send to active (mouse-over) machine. I think it should work I hope with some of those nifty tools.
- Can one healer really keep 4 people up in PvP? Wouldn't a 5 DPS team not also work (and easier) after all?
- How do you guys do instances without proper tank? No problem with trash but how to do bosses?

I am an avid Warlock player and do know almost everything about the class in both, PvE and PvP. But am a beginner in Multibox plans. I appreciate any help and thanks for this amazing forum.

Regards,

Four warlocks? Oh yes. That's a lot of CC. My shaman are pretty much pure damage, and they heal each other with chain heal. Depends on the class.

You'll be able to tank with your voidwalkers. One void tank is not sufficient, but four could do the trick I think. Just have to be careful with your agro. I tank with earth elementals. Before I had those (in old world) I could just let the boss hit on me since I wear mail. I'm not sure how the other class combos do it, but they seem to manage.

Thanks for your answer.

Well with a Soul Link / Voidwalker setup also one Warlock could "theoretically" tank once I get in higher levels.
