mages x2 scripts?

[FrsaknStigma]

Hi im new to dual boxing (i understand how ait works and all) but i need some good scripts to help me level up. is there any good scripts out there?

well it depends how you are setup ofc!

first of all are you going to go fire or frost or even a mixture of them. personally i would have your main frost for the CC and slave as fire.

now you can frost bolt 1 mob to slow him down then on the fire mage use this macro:

/cast [exists,harm,nodead] fireball
/stopmacro [exists,harm,nodead]
/assist party1
/cast [exists,harm,nodead] fireball

in place of fireball as normal. that way you can CC many mobs yet your fire mage will still DPS the 1 mob allowing easier management. to set the macro up i suggest you change the line /assist party1 and replace it with /assist <insert mains name here>

if you wanted to get technical with it you could have another set of hotkeys asigned with the /target <then another macro for each member of your party if you group with others> then in place of /assist party1 you can just use /assist %T

with that you could then focus your slaves dps with say the rogues in group (if you was grouped with him ect) or to focus on the tanks target ect. however i would suggest only using that if you can see the slaves target clearly. also using the target each member and then assist %t allows your tank to change targets on the fly (perfect for arena ect) without you manually swapping screens to retarget (as using the above longer macro would prevent the slave from swapping targets untill its target is dead).


hope that helped a little bit and ofc you can change the macro to your liking, for example, if you wanted to cast fireball on current targets or frostbolt on a new target swap the end line to /cast [exists,harm,nodead] frostbolt.

so the macro would cycle through seeing if you had a live target and if you had it would cast fireball. if you didnt it would take the first party members target and cast frostbolt.

its at this point i realised how much work there is to actually multiboxing rather than yeah double pyro woot!

Good luck with your project and please keep us posted with updates to see how your getting on and i hope my post helped you with some ideas.

the above is great advice.

dont forget there are other ways of making your slave target things and kill. one is by using targettarget and the other by using focustarget with your main as the focus.
macros will be written differently, and gameplay will be done slightly differently. but it just dpeends in your preference. try the above setup, but also try the targettarget setup and the focustarget setup. also remember you have more abilities than just fireball and frostbolt. so you'll have to figure out how to use them for both your characters. if you wanna know my setup (my mages are only 20something though) i can give you a quick start setup with minimal addons, configuraitons, etc.

/cast [exists,harm,nodead] fireball
/stopmacro [exists,harm,nodead]
/assist party1
/cast [exists,harm,nodead] fireball

I guess this was designed to be able to change the target of the main while the other finishes off the current target
yeh could just reduce it to


/cast fireball
/stopmacro [harm,nodead] if harm or nodead are true then exist has to be true
/assist party1
/cast fireball

with the /stopmacro [harm,nodead] if harm or nodead are true then exist has to be true

yeh cant cast the fireball unless[exists,harm,nodead] are true so there really no point in putting in there

the idea was adaptability to others spells. hence the extra codes in there. fireball was just an example spell you get at low level however anything that is targetable is posible.
