hey folks..

I have just come accross this site and it surely looks very interesting. Im looking forward to getting a good setup going.
I
have 2 WOW accounts. 3 computers and 3 22inch monitors. Im interested in playing one char up and having the other follow.

Account 1. 70 : mage, warrior, priest, shaman, rogue, death Knight
Account 2. 70 : hunter, warlock 80 : druid

I would like to focus on the priest and hunter and the same time if possible.

Can i please have some feedback and what i need to get me going and is it best to use 2 computers and one monitor or 2?

Thanx for your feedback.

I have just purchased keyclone and now looking for the basic of all basic guides to set it up.

Ideally i want to play priest on my main computer and hunter on the other computer. Any reading material to get me started would be appreciated.

Do i need 2 copies of keyclone? (1pr computer)
Do i need to install keyclone on both computers?

ok so you want to 2box with 2 computers? if you are using keyclone you need to purchas 2 copys of keyclone, 1 for each comp. i highly sudgest you check out this sticky for more info:

http://dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=3770 maily check out the "How Do I Set This Program Up?" part of the post.

as for controling multiple computers with 1 mouse/keyboard i sudgest you check out Synergy:

http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/

i personaly have no experience with Synergy so if the site doesn't provide enough info try using the search on dual-boxing.com(here)

also check out the software forum for more info. lots of good stickys there:

Thanx for your feedback mate.

Maybe its easier to just focus on using the one computer?

if your computer can run multiple instances of WoW at the same time then yes, it is MUCH easier imo.

Multiple Pcs is fine. Just use [Other] Interbox 1.0 - software KM switch ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=14946') with Keyclone or another similar program. Makes it very easy. I run 5 accounts across 5 pcs with minimal problems and great fps on each machine.

What would be the easiest classes to start with (macros etc) from the following accounts?

Account 1. 70 : mage, warrior, priest, shaman, rogue, death Knight
Account 2. 70 : hunter, warlock : druid 80

take the shaman and combine it with hunter/warlock, you will trash anything and even have a pet who can tank :)

Goto wowiki for easy to start macros, i dare say hunters/shamans have the best "one button" macros for dps ;)

Tho any combination would be fun but personaly I never liked mage even if i did lvl one to 60 pre tbc

If you only plan to play 2 accounts even melee is viable

Im at the start over this adventure.

So far ive actually managed to get both account working at once :) But still have alot to learn i see.

Ill start with shammy and hunter.

For some reason though...when i move on my main..the alt moves too... so unless they are facing the same direction...one gets lost. Getting there :)

keys i use:

w,a,d,s, 1 2 3 4 5 6 q e f t on my main....

Does this mean i have to "Do Not pass" all these keys to stop the alt from doing the same thing?

you can do that or you can unbind the movement keys from the slave account

or you can use a whitelist. so only the keys you designate will get passed.

hunter and shaman are good depending on spec. =]
and make macros to have your slave assist your main somehow. use the wiki up top. it helps.

Pretty much any setup can work, everyone has it's ups and downs.

Shaman / hunter or priest / hunter don't make a real big difference i think. Both are good/simple options, since you got a hunter to do the damage and a hybrid to back him up.

Tips: You want to unbind the movement keys on the slave or don't broadcast them to the slave(blacklist). Put the slave on /follow.
I would use the hunter as main, if you use it mainly for dps and the priest for backup it requires more attention then the priest. (FD, if a mob comes into melee range, pet)

/tar hunter / pet
/cast heal
So you can keep shooting with your hunter while getting a heal. :)

Unbind the arrowkeys on your mainchar, keep them bound on your slave, so you can rotate the slave while still having the mainchar as mainscreen.
