So I am new, but was experimenting with Dual Boxing.. I love it. I was finding I was having an issue sometimes with getting my followers to target the same target fast enough. I don't know if I was moving to fast, or what. So would it be wise to just spam macros?

Example:

MAIN -
AB 1- /cast fireball

Alt -
AB1 - /follow MAIN
/assist MAIN
/cast fireball

Here's the thing that most people never realize and dualboxers live with constantly...

You target something and hit attack, your alts dont know about that target for about .5 to 1 full second.

So if you have a single button to assist and target, they wont know about it, I have gotten in the habit of spamming the button and I have party-castbars on screen so I know when the rest of my groups casting... ToT indicators let me know that they are on the right target, etc.

I'm using 2 buttons.

1 button for:
/follow MAIN
/assist MAIN
/accept scripts.....

All the other buttons are just the regular casting attack buttons.

It gives me a little more control and I don't have to write a macro for every casting that I want to use.
