I currently have a paladin, priest and 3 mages.
I am having abit of trouble where im going with the pally to use judgment to pull stuff and the guys are still following. i don't mind they follow aslong as when i press 3 (dps and judgement) that they all stop follow then cast because they start to cast then stop.

You cannot stop following with a macro. You need to press a movement key to stop follow.

I just started 2 boxing, and have been wondering the best way to do this too. 1 combo I have right now that is fun is my warrior/druid. I have key clone and mapped buttons so that each toon does an action when I hit a button. charge for the warrior is assist warrior on the druid. Heroic Strike and wrath share a button and Thunder clap and moonfire share a button. But, my druid is always on follow, and when I charge before I can get the druid to do anything that requires a casting time, he follws up to the back of the warrior. I'd like to have it where I charge, the druid just stops following, stands there at range, and I could map a wrath to the charge button some how, and she can start casting. Something like that.
Can you think of a way to get that to happen?
Thanks.

You need to map a movement key for your druid, perhaps map move back to the same key that the warrior uses for charge? Then another key for moonfire. I personally have wasd for my tank (main) movement keys and the rest of my toons use the arrow keys for movement.

Yeah movement key is the best way, I dual box pom-pyro mages ATM and I have KeyClone pass "s" so before I cast I tap "s" real quick to stop the follow. It sucks because it adds a half second before you can start first fireball. Also if lead toon is at max range the back one won't be in range because of /follow distance. Makes me think sometimes to take 1 less point in range for lead toon =)
