Made my Guild! Check out New UI!

[Sam DeathWalker]

My Guild (30 boxing now will have 31 when I get my raf level guys):

http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Ner%27zhul&n=The%20DeathWalker%20Empire&p=1

And my super UI:

Carb
Jamba
Tour Guide
Xpearl
PallyPower
Titan
Macaroon
etc.

The big button is for consecrate/attack so that I am sure to tag. The group is to the right of the minimap but not shown. I have the minimap to show mines as Carb will show you where mines could be but not if they are there or not. PallyPower keeps BoK on my group all the time easy (will I have to click but its easy).

All Six my computers are AthlonX2 6400 (3.2Ghz), 4Gram and 1/2G "readyboost" ram, Asus m2n32 premium vista MB, 9600 video and raptors for wow. 60fps on main (pal on one computer by herself - 60fps) with most all effects on max, 30fpsfore and 20fps background on the 5 other computers (each running 6 wows cept one running 5 wows) with few effects, in old world.

Slow but sure. Once my mages hit 60 Ill be able to raf grant up another mage (6 total) and one warlock. Ill drop a shaman and run Pal main and 6 groups of 1 mage and 4 shaamn with one of those groups have a warlock instead of shaman for transportation purposes.

With the reworks I have done for my toons and I only 3 box, I can't imagine the time takes for you to rework macros etc... If you get those guys into WG there will be nothing to stop you from over running the door or from holding the door.

With running 30 accounts, how is target management handled?

[Sam DeathWalker]

I have a way to put macros on the main then send to all the slave computers. I redo all the wtf folders. Takes about 10 minutes but then its stable with all the new macros and camera settings and button settings, everything on the 29 other accounts.

The Pal targets, and is in the "exp group". He tags with consecrate or with shield or hammer of j. Then if its one mob I have a button to kill with shocks and what not, if its aoe I kill with fire nova totems and blast wave (the mobs get thrown back but return by the time the fire nova totmes go off).

In pvp the Pal targets and the others assist, if Pal goes down he can still target but I cant move basically. But with bubble and LoH and 20 plus chain heals he not going down to easy. Plus I am playing the Pal all the time, I can basically do as much with the Pal as any single toon player can. Besides I want the oppenet to focus his fire on my strongest character, the prot pal.

With the mages now fire spec I can do 5 pyro/fireball at 41 yards so oppenents cant just sit at range and rush into spell range then out ("spell jousting"). And I got blast wave out of the deal also for pve, which is a mini thunderstorm lol. I know most mages go arcane/frost but I made them for range and fire is where the range is.

[AlmySidaKay]

Ok prolly kinda nubby question, but what is the name of the add on for your mini map? I always ask about a square map add on but most people don't seem to have a clue.

How many machines do you run the 30 toons on?

[Sam DeathWalker]

Six.

[Seraphaw]

Looks clean! Although I think your UI is too big, I would make that 30% smaller, but that's just me :P.

[homerjunior]

Horribly big and cluttered UI

4/10

[Zub]

yeah i have to admit there's some big blocks in that UI that don't go too well with me.
If you need all that on your screen, i would suggest you put a transparent background on your chat window and adjust the transparency of the massive map part on the left to something like 50%.
You'll still see what you need, but you'll see much more landscape as well.
The big jamba frame you can probable reduce as well (font? transparency?) to have is smaller and eat less landscape space.

then again UIs are very personal, if you like it like that, enjoy.

[Sam DeathWalker]

The left carbonite map does go transparent i just made it like that so people could see in the SS. Jamba is as small as it can be and still see the full names of each player although maybe she can make it go smaller in her new update, guess I should ask for that. The big button in middle is for easy and fast clicking.

Stuff I dont use often or that I click on when there is no pressure I make small (the buttons on the bottem) but stuff I use every time I pull a mob or have to get to really fast is big and in the center.

It is bigger then I would like, but then again my world view is good also. Plus I am at 1600 X 1200 instead of 1920X1200 so it looks a bit bigger (I have to keep 4:3 so the layout goes to my slaves 1280X960.

[railz]

Your entire left hand side of the screen is blocked out by a huge map that has no use whatsoever. Transparent or not, there's no need for it to be there. You have such a reduced viewing area that you're going to get jumped by pats and respawns all the time.

Why on earth are you running Auctioneer on a multibox setup? That mod chews up a ton of memory. Keep it to load only on a bank alt parked in IF or SW.

Get rid of the menu bar - all those screens are available through easy hotkeys. It's huge and serves no purpose.

Turn off 3D portraits in X-Perl. Turn off Class and PVP flags too if you're on a PVP server.

Oh, and ditch the clickies. Learn to use hotkeys. You will not survive in any form of PVP or advanced PvE unless you have a good knowledge of hotkeys and can use spells/abilities without clicking a button.

[Smoooth]

Auctioneer can be very useful on the main character especially for someone new to the game. It's nice to know the value of a new item you find so you know if you should junk it or not. It's also good to know if it's more worthwhile to disenchant an item or vendor it.

[Sam DeathWalker]

I run 6 computers; the SS's are from the main, which only runs ONE account. So I can use bloatware and have all effects on high and it dosnt matter.

Carbonite is very very powerfull here is a quest highlighted (see upper right), it shows where to go:

[Starbuck_Jones]

Not bad. You said that big map on the left fades out so I cant complain about it too much as that was my only real feedback for you. In the pictures it creates a HUGE blind spot. I don't think ive ever been able to auction house that oh so Delicious Cave Mold either.

In all its looking good. I still use the default UI.

[Sam DeathWalker]

Get rid of the menu bar - all those screens are available through easy hotkeys. It's huge and serves no purpose.

Im kinda out of keys... ya the menue bar is wasted space though I have to agree to that, im going to shirk it even more next time if I can.

Turn off 3D portraits in X-Perl. Turn off Class and PVP flags too if you're on a PVP server.

I wanted the level to show and if I turn off the class I dont gain anything ... The portrait is a waste but what else would go there except a longer bar which is also a waste.

Oh, and ditch the clickies. Learn to use hotkeys. You will not survive in any form of PVP or advanced PvE unless you have a good knowledge of hotkeys and can use spells/abilities without clicking a button.

Im really fast with the mouse (trackball), I gain no speed moving things to the keyboard, and actually lose speed. And im out of buttons lol. Notice I have clustered the important click spots in the middle near where my oppent will be so as to minimize mouse movement.


Oh and the map on the left, not only do I transpartent it but when not in use I can easy reduce the size by moving the edges.

AFAIK trackballs are bad for fast responses? i.e. in PVP it will cost you wins. You might think you're fast but I'm guessing that it's actually hindering you.

Are you using mouse broadcasting to send commands to your followers? No key clicks?

[AlmySidaKay]

Thanks for the link to the mini map add on.

You posted this exact same message in screenshots. Are you going to double post everything from now on?

[Sam DeathWalker]

I posted on other forums also, this thread is like my blog or whatever.

Normally I would just post once in General but that seems pointless as it just gets locked or moved.

They are screenshots so I put in the SS thread - not like its out of topic in either thread - should I just put a link to here instead?

Ok Ill just link to here from SS thread, is that ok?

[RobinGBrown]

this thread is like my blog or whatever.This forum is not your blog, please post this stuff elsewhere.

No, this forum is not YOUR place to harass other people.

http://wemultibox.com/content/starting-your-own-blog

The cool thing about having your own blog is regardless of what kind of misinformed, semi-retarded drivel you post nobody can say a thing about it. It is your space to act as ignorant as you like! Hopefully that site can handle the droves of gawkers that will be stopping by to check out the train wreck that is DeathWalker, if not there are plenty of other sites.

[Yamio]

glo!!

That made me laugh!

[d0z3rr]

Grats Sam. Ignore the haters (which you're pretty frickin good at!). I would hate learning a game by 30boxing, I couldn't even stand learning eq2 6boxing.

[Moorea]

Some trigger happy moderator yanked my reply in the SS thread/forum, so here it is again (from memory):

So you're still in pirates cove 2 months later; something to be proud of; have your mages reach 40 yet ? shammies still in mid 40s after 9 months ? Pally still low 50 ? Still not questing ? Wonder if you'll make the connection some day...

[Sam DeathWalker]

Mages are 47 plus, rest are as armory says.

http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Ner%27zhul&n=The%20DeathWalker%20Empire&p=1

I think the more important question is Can a boxer from another server kill me with DK's still?

I attack level 80's now, I get slaughtered but I take them down 6K hp or so. And i have had a couple of times where a enemy level 80 target my main and I targeted him and after 30 seconds ro so they just ride off ....

In all this talk the fact that I have 18,800 plus killz on my Pal isn't being noticed. Thats mob killz and i know that lots of people have tons of player killz (twinks) even in the 100K plus range but how is that for npc killz?

By the way read post number 3 in this thread:

Leveling 60-80 ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=21244&28b44b5f')

When you level up a group of 5 or a single character you learn how to level up a group of 5 or a single character really fast. You don't learn how to play 30 at one time.

My Death Knight has around 45 thousand kills without even trying. Questing from 55 to 80 is not exactly killing a ton of mobs at a time, especially from 70 to 80 where you do a lot of running around meeting NPCs. Armory Link ('http://www.wowarmory.com/character-statistics.xml?r=Alleria&cn=Leannora&gn=Dont+Panic')

I don't know if 'naive' is the proper word to describe the thought that you are in the top anything with 18 thousand kills and not a single level 80 character. There are 11 million players worldwide. A non-trivial portion of those players have been playing this game for a couple of years at least. Leveling to 80 is completely trivial if you do it right (not sitting in a spot killing mobs). Claiming you're "top 100" and then asking people to prove you wrong is completely backwards. Do the research yourself and then make the claim. I make the claim right here that my Death Knight is the best in all of WoW. Prove me wrong.

[Gurblash]

I make the claim right here that my Death Knight is the best in all of WoW. Prove me wrong. I like this attitude... maybe its something everyone here should try I'll follow.

I make the claim right here that my 5 boxing skills are the best in all of WoW!!!!!!111one

[glo]

I think the more important question is Can a boxer from another server kill me with DK's still?

Yes, anyone that wants to spend a couple hours setting up dks on your server can wreck your 30 box team you been working on for over a year.

[Sam DeathWalker]

Well you say do the research exactly how would I? Just look at random names of level 80's for the number of killz? I did look at a few that had really high pvp kills but they didnt have many mob kills.

I did try google wow "most npc kills" and wow "most mob kills" and got nothing usefull. Any other ideas?

I don't mind doing research if there is a clear way to do it.

By the way where does it say the number of days played at the armoy, I can't find it. Looks like you use your character for boosting based upon the percentage of non exp killz.

Ya well its kinda boring just doing the same mobs all the time, none going to try and kill me? Why be on a pvp server if none will attack me?

Ya well its kinda boring just doing the same mobs all the time, none going to try and kill me? Why be on a pvp server if none will attack me?It's just as boring killing you as it would be grinding those level 40 mobs. All you do is stand there in a big clump looking not too bright for the few seconds it takes to die.

You aren't logged in BTW.

fyi Chick = Prostitute in this context, so admirable.

[glo]

fyi Chick = Prostitute in this context, so admirable.I considered making a post correcting his use of the word "chick" to refer to a female friend that might drop by. After thinking about it for a moment I realized how much better this term was then those commonly used for the type of woman that drops by Sam's place and decided against it.

From this day forward "chick" should be the polite terminology for referring to any prostitute on the dual boxing forums, don't worry about being misunderstood everyone will know what you mean.
