BA BAM, that's all 4 of them, 1 shot Grobbulus and Thaddius after the patch, the changes were good and a lot of fun now. Highly advise everyone to give these raids another shot if you stopped doing them out of frustration. I think I'll be doing 10 man every week now just to hang out with friends and have a good time :)

[Toned]

10man Naxx = EZmode ~ You don't have to use the charges on Thaddius so you can spread out and not wipe your raid. 25man Naxx + multi-boxing Thaddius = fun times.

[Shaitan256]

Haven't seen Naxx yet (even 60 version -.-) I'm looking forward to kill some bosses in some time :)

Nice for you, and maybe you could get some nice Epix. :)

[Coltimar]

Naxx was horrible at 60. We killed on boss on each wing then the guild fell apart, lol. We should have known better. AQ40 almost caused a coup.

Is it possible not to have these posts right on the main page? You could just post them in the screenshot area since they are things that have already been done. Maybe you could make a separate section just for you so people could go there just to look at your accomplishments by themselves?

Don't look at it if it bothers you that much. I personally enjoy seeing and reading about what the experienced 'boxers do.

[Teslah]

It doesn't bother me. Not sure why you are reading into it that much. There is a section for screenshots. It makes sense to put them in the screenshot area right? It's just a suggestion. It just seems odd to put screenshots on the main page of things that have already been done by many other people.

I love seeing this stuff. Fraps of these encounters would be much better, but screenshots are still fun. Why would it bother me when I have done all of this myslef lol. I love it, and I love seeing everyone's videos, screenshots and stories. It's part of the fun.

Nice work!

Hey could anyone let me in on the little box on the bottom right with "Team" and displaying the shamans in the box? Which addon is that and what is it used for tyvm.

On a side-note, any chance of posting the strats for doing these encounters? :-)

Not sure why you are reading into it that much. Because you are openly contradicting yourself. I understand you want attention. That's why you took the time to post a response that only demonstrates that you are not impressed. You give evidence to this because you implied that it is almost embarrassing to have the #1 PvP Multiboxer in the US post in his blog about his success in PvE, mind you only to encourage others that have given up.


It just seems odd to put screenshots on the main page of things that have already been done by many other people. We are a community. Every WoW website has a screenshot on the front page. Does it not make sense that we have some? So no I wouldn't say it is "odd." Unless I didn't understand what odd means. Also who are the many? Where are your screenshots? I didn't see them in the screenshot section. I saw your videos on youtube.com posted in November after everyone and there brother had done that years(hyperbole) ago. See what I did there?


Why would it bother me when I have done all of this myslef lol You are in full AH epics and badge loot. "All" is inclusive. Meaning; you currently have cleared 10 man Naxx (which is harder than 25 to multibox) and have a 1700+ arena rating atm. None of which your armory suggests.

Why did I bother responding to this you may ask? Aelli (The nicest guy in the world) makes a post in his blog to encourage others (which they need just read the forums). Someone links his blog to the front page. And all you have to say is negative things. I get it, your father never hugged you or told you that he loved you but srsly... Trying to find happiness by bringing misery to others can only come back to you.

Here's a example of a good response:

Congratz Aelli :)

[Vyndree]

I like Pikey's response, so all I'm going to point out is that this section of the forums is named The Blog ('http://dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Board&boardID=26'). (Other resources to note: The Wiki defines the dual-boxing front page as "Ellay's Blog" ('http://dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Blogs'), though recently it's become more of a group effort when Bradster was around to help out).

So, if you don't enjoy reading blog posts, you can feel free to limit your reading to the Screenshots area.

Great instead of a congratz, you give the owner of the website a why don't you do it my way and don't post there. You know you can just set your bookmark to the forums and you don't even have to go to the portal page. If you don't want to see something there is always a way to avoid looking at it, specially in the interwebs.

GRATZ on the run, I am looking forward to trying something like that, I have not yet since I have been working on getting the tank up to 80 and geared to do all the heroics. Yesterday tried DTK and got owned, the team was real good and the heals where great, but I was noobish, first boss comes around and he owns me, he kept on eating the dead around and hitting me like a bulldozer. Needless to say that after 3 tries we called it, I guess I need quite a bit more gear. I am at 22.2k HP, 542 Def, so still have some work to do on getting the gear to get to 23-24k HP.

Im glad the main page is being updated, its always interesting to see what one of the top multiboxers is up to. If I didnt like it I wouldnt read it, why cant some other people be like that *cough*

On a lighter note good job with Naxx Aelli, Ill be continuing to check your 5v5 progress on armory :)

[Ellay]

Thanks! :)
I always have second thoughts on updating the main page with my own "blog" because when I first made the site I could say it was all about me since there was only 50 members for a bit, then it blew up and we have ... a bazillion! I do want it to have more flavor though instead of just sitting there, so taking a more pro-active approach.

As for the Arenas, I expect it to do much better soon :) We got some buffs we needed and other classes are not doing insane damage anymore.. expect arcane mages! Hopefully the point system gets better. Winning games for 2 points a piece is grrrrr.

I like your screenies on the frontpage and please never remove them or even think twice about it. It amazes me at some of the stuff you can do and like to see it. Look at it this way. You are the main and we are all your alts that are on ./follow heh

I have always wondered if Thad could even been done so please explain how you did it. Someone up above said spreadout but you loose the charges that boost your dps which you really need.

[Ellay]

On Thaddius I left 1 Shaman on each platform on the top and rotated 2 of them for maximum charges while still playing it safe.

[Pippin]

So the one just sat out? Anychance you can get a video of it next time? I gotta see this. :) Freakin awesome

[valkry]

Awesome work with the boxing in a raid. And keep it up with the front page posts. I know I enjoyed it when I was featured there :P

Anyway, grobulus I can see the strat with would be fairly simple but thadius would be a bit harder (unless you just spread out to avoid the charge swapping). I was thinking that if you had your shammies side on to Thadius you could strafe them if they needed to swap sides. I'd probably set up t/y for left/right on main, u/i for 2nd char, g/h for 3rd and j/k for 4th. Then if you have a mod like xperl you can ramp up the size of the debuffs so you can easily see which char needs to strafe. Red means left, blue means right. Would take a bit of a toll on the memory but I reckon it could be done. You do get a fair bit of time to move to each side and being ranged you can afford to hold down the keey a bit longer while you work out what other chars need to move.

The same could also be done for Heigan. Turn towards the platform and just strafe the whole fight. Phase 1 you can dps a fair bit and phase 2 just worry about avoiding the lava. /follow doesn't need to be used. Just have you tank tank him in front of you.

[Souca]

As someone who has raided with Ellay, I can certify that this is in fact an accomplishment! :P

Grats man. I promise to get one of my girls to 80 so I can bask in your four mana totems.

They just won't get the buff from stacking like charges. 2k dps is better than none.

[Code]

Ellay keep posting it up. I look forward to an awesome screenshot. I wish you would update the portal screeny more often to be honest ^^ I think this person was just ignorant of who you are lol. Now you know Teslah \(^_^)/

[Ellay]

I guess I should of been more specific, if you place them on the top edge corner on the platforms they can pew pew pew to their hearts content, they were still doing massive dps :) just no charges. Or else I wouldn't of considered it quad boxed :)
