View Full Version : Because (3) just isn't enough

It official – going from solo play to boxing 3 accounts a couple of weeks ago has put the bug into my system. Today I RaF’d (2) more accounts giving me 1-well decorated account; (2) semi ok accounts with a couple of different classes at 62; and (2) bright shiny new ones that will be added tonight with Battle Chest.

I must say that boxing 3-accounts was very fun/frustrating, lots of stupid deaths, lots of this is freeking awesome, lots of …why don’t I try 5-boxing moments.
Thanks again for all the great information, insight, and knowledge that you all have passed on to us Noobs – its pretty strange to feel so new to the game even though I have been playing WoW since beta. Can’t wait for my first real challenge in several years of WoW as my plan for the 5-box is to Raf without boosting. I figure that is the only way for me to fully understand each class as they get new spells and abilities along with how they work in synergy with each other.

I started out with 3 also. RAF'd 3 shaman, it didn't take long to realize I needed to 5 box :)

hehe, I slave dual boxed for about 8 months, then went Oooo RaF which lead me to this site.. As soon as I saw the community here behind multiboxing I knew 5Boxing was the only way to go, even if I have teams of 3 or 4 to play with friends/family, 5 boxing is what I am going to spend the majority of my WoW time on now :)

Great decision! I started 3 boxing a few months before WotlK came out and had fun with them. I then decided to take the plunge after getting 3 chars to 80 after wotlk came out and leveled a couple of more to 80 to 5 box heroics.
I have had a blast being able to run my own guys through heroics and gearing them out. It has been the most fun i've had in 4 years of playing WoW. Good luck and have fun!

howdy Rocky and welcome to the forums!

yea.. once you start multi-boxing... you just want more. more accounts, better equipment, more classes... it's a whole different experience.

please remember to post some screenies of your crew along with some tidbits as they grow up... makes for great reading for those of us stuck @ work.

good luck and welcome to the addiction,

Rob

I went from 1 to 2 after a while, but literally a few days after doing 2, I went the full 5. If the max group size to get exp was higher, id box that # as well....

Have fun!

Until they increase the RAF level restriction past 60, I'm gonna stick with 4 accounts. That plus right now my rig can't handle 5 yet cause of the ram, still haven't ventured out into Outland or Dalaran yet to see how bad it gets. :\ Plus, I like runnin with a friend of mine when we have the chance, and I can get someone to run my team thru instances I can't yet tackle myself. :D More power to those that run more than me. Just wish they'd add a 4 vs 4 Arena already. Still don't see why they haven't yet.
