So for a while my girlfriends been saying she wants to learn how to 2box... and today we were at the store to pick up a copy of TBC for her so I picked up a battlechest to be a 5th account...

Picklehippo - Priest
Pickleweasel - Warlock
Pickleferret - Warlock
Picklebadger - Warlock
Picklemink - Warlock

She's driving Ferret and Weasel right now, I think I'll go ahead and set her up to 4box and just drive the priest, since it doesn't make much sense to split the dps controls and she'll never know the difference :).

Initial setup took about 1 hour to setup UI's macro's and such then we were off to the races... as with my previous experiment with Lock X 4 + priest it was absurdly easy to kill mobs +5 levels... We stopped at 6 to go get dinner with some family... got home and she was tired.

I modified a few hotkeys on her system and boom, instant 5box. I went ahead shadowbolting things until I got 8th and CoA... then decided that even though it wasn't instant I'd see how Corruption/CoA would handle killing things in a dot-kite style...

Low and behold I found myself fighting to keep moving, things were dying faster than I could efficiently loot them... I had to do big loops around the area and loot on my way back killing the repops... Blew through level 8 faster than any two levels prior.

Can't wait to see how that pans out @ level 14 when Corruption is instant due to talents!

While I do enjoy the stories, I believe that wives and girlfriends who game are much like the Easter Bunny, Santa, the Tooth Fairy and Jesus.... imaginary.

LoL! Seriously, she exists...

I'd link you her armory, but you'd say it's mine since all my boxed toons are chicks anyhow... I'd link her blog, but you'd say it's forged since blogs are so easy to fake... I'd link a pic, but she'd kill me for posting one without her permission, and even if I did you'd say she's just some chick I googled on images.google.com...

So much like God, you simply must have Faith that they exist!

Actually, I believe most boxers have wives, gfs whatever.

Experience has shown that despite what most may think, the average boxer is not too distant from your "average" person.

No, but having both a wife AND a girlfriend IS multi-boxing.

However I dont think it would be wise to have them both on follow at the same time, so it would be more like playing with two different alts.

Gentlemen, here is the reason most geeks don't have girlfriends or wives.

To be quite honest.. I multi-box to stay out of trouble with my wife.

I have slight addiction on whatever it is that I'm doing, so I rather direct it to WoW instead of the "other" things in life. :P

Hehe. That's from Family Guy. The kids screamed "Oh no, Oh no!" Then cool-aid Busted in "OH YEAH!" everyone stopped and stared at him so he left.

Back on the forums for sure! Not sure if i'm going to continue with WOW yet or not. I started everything up last night but became bored pretty quickly. At any rate with a few new MMO's coming out shortly i'm sure i'll find something.
