New Multiboxer - In need of Guidance

[TheSpiralPirate]

Hello peoples!

Well, let me go straight to the point. I'm new to multiboxing. In fact, I only heard of it yesterday, when I saw this guy with a warrior and a druid in a random dungeon using it.

Well, my question is this: I'm playing a mage currently. Would it be possible to be running this mage + a healer on multiboxing and effectively manage to do the job properly? Would I be able to set up the healer in such a way that it will heal properly the party?

Somep people are running 10-man raids "solo" (controlling all 10 toons at once).

So, yes, if you put in the effort then you could heal your party while playing your mage.

There's a fairly steep learning curve, but it's rewarding :) I'd suggest ISBoxer for your multicasting program... might as well start out on the right foot!

Anything is possible.

Like mentioned above 2 boxing is cake. If you wish to spend a bit of money ISboxer is 10$ for 3 months and is very user friendly.

You could manage a priest/mage combo no problem. With ISboxer and an addon like Healbot/Vuhdo you can heal a whole group from your mage no problem. You could even set up some macros to have your priest DPS- or just keep them as a pocket healer. Or even a group healer for randoms- wouldn't be too hard just getting use to the controls.

Multiboxing either 2 or even 10 is a bit of a learning curve. You have to get the hang of it but once you do it's easy.
