Is the following link still the only (or most effective) way to cast 5 AoE spells at the same time? I'm strictly a software boxer using Keyclone.

How to use Targetable AoE's multiboxing with in game macro's (no addons or programs needed)! ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=18845')

I finally have my druids to the point where I'm going to need to start casting Hurricane and the like and I'd obviously like to be able to toss them down while staying on the main screen.

Thanks for your time and attention.

Since they nerfed the ability to cast an AoE through the minimap ping commands, yes. The only thing you can do to improve reliable positioning is the camera angle stuff. Keep in mind, though, that setting a really long zoom setting will cause all kinda wierdness in instances with fairly low roofs. You may want to set one up for indoors, too. Me, I just have one setting that works well both indoors and outdoors for this.

I'm a long-time user of hotkeynet for my pally/priest/3xmage team. I've been using a key modifier to cast blizzard for awhile now, and it works good when the ground target is right on top of your toons. It's unreliable for any distance AOE ground targets unles you're zoomed way out (annoying in instances) and even then it's a bit tough (not viable for pvp)

I saw 3:20 of this video <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIqLMBhoMQI&feature=related> for InnerSpace (cheap) and ISBoxer (free) 2 days ago, and it was enough to make me switch. I can now target ground AOE casts perfectly and almost instantly without changing my view (i also got a huge performance gain in window switching ... 3-4 milliseconds). I can't wait to level my 5x druids and 5x mages this way.

Not sure if that's what you were looking for, but this has made AOE ground target spells so fast and precise that they're pvp viable for me.
