Dual Shaman question/problem

[Lokhtar]

I just started dual shamans as my spec, and I am having a problem with their spec. If I do enhancement, that means they both need to melee, and I can't get the second guy to actually go and attack the monster in melee without alt-tabbing. Dual elemental works much better, but it is not as good for leveling.

Anyone have any ideas?

Go elemental.

Use AutoHotKey or keyclone to get around having to Alt-tab, there are plenty of topics discussing how to set up both, have a read :-)

I do have that set up, and it works with elemental, but it doesn't work with enhancement as melee requires finer positioning than casters.

You misunderstood.

Moving can only effectively be done with follow. This is why generally Multiboxers only have 1 melee character.

The only way you might be able to get around it is to run up to the mob, begin attacking it and then spin 180 degrees and move backwards through the mob. This way your second character should be within melee range. It does work it just takes practice. Its most definately not viable for PvP though.

Which is a huge drawback to actually leveling Shaman in the first place. They only pay off when they are well geared, everything up to that point is a struggle while many other classes are insanely fun from the get go.
