Hey,
so I recently came onto the Dual-boxing-hobby and I have two accounts with a resto druid and a prot warrior separated.
I got past all software things, now I'm inside the game, but I have no idea how to setup everything!
Can anyone provide great information with a similar setup? Mostly thinking about macros and stuff, what do I "mainly" play, the warrior or the druid?
Thanks!

1. what software are you using?
2. is this a single computer setup or a two computer setup?
3. what exactly are you trying to do? are you having trouble with buttons to press? whether the druid should be dps-ing too? how to follow? keybindings? macros to do what?

For one, you need to set it up where if you hit this button on the warrior it well trigger this button on your druid. Here is how I would set it up, button wise.
WARRIOR/DRUID
Charge ---> Moonfire
Switch Stance ---> Rejuv
Heroic Strike ---> Regrowth
Execute ---> Healing touch
Thunderclap ---> swiftmend
That well make low down time for eating/drinking. Execute ---> healing touch works good, you can always hit execute even when they aren't below 20% health for the heal against elites or rare spawns ;).
You basicly have to set it up where when you charge the resto druid well moonfire, and when you use a certain spell on your warrior, your druid well respond how you want it to, hard to explain with out being there talking to you,

1. Keyclone.
2. One computer, and I got maximizer fixed and all, its all about the setup and stuff which is really tricky :)
3. Well I saw alot of people who are 5 manning and I'm after having a tank and healer and just need 3 dps and go to an heroic, so I need tips on what keybindings to use, how to setup my actionbars and so on, for example: if I use shield slam, what should I do with my druid, regrowth?

Smahshey, thanks for your time to give your idea. I'm going for a tank/healer setup so I can aquire 3 dps and then get off to an heroic, so I'm not sure your change stance, moonfire, execute ideas are the things I look for though, I won't use those when tanking/healing in heroics.
however you are in the right direction, i need help with setting up my bars.

i suggest you keep separate buttons for the healing. you want your heals to heal the tank and not to match what the tank is doing. its a lot harder to do this as opposed to having two different classes dps.
healing is situational, and you should save your mana for that. using moonfire, wrath, or whatever other spells in tandem with warrior attacks will probably mean your healer will be OOM by the time you need it to actually do what you want it to do... which is heal. constantly reapplying moonfire is super mana inefficient, as is casting heals when you're pretty full on health. there is no reason to have to match your healing with any of the warriors attacks. none.
if you're just two-manning it, then i would add a few attack spells (maybe just wrath and moonfire) with some warrior attacks. rend+moonfire and heroic strike+wrath. but dont kill your mana on these spells. remember your resto druid is still... resto and needs to heal.
