Companions take place of players in FPs?

[Redbeard]

So I read somewhere in one of these threads that companions can take the place of real players in flash points... but not in heroics. But it wasnt confirmed at the time.

Can anyone elaborate?

Considering whether I want to 2 box this bitch.

yes, the group count is 4, this is including any companions you have, for every real person that joins the group a companion will be dropped.

but to answer your question, yes you can dual box a flashpoint with 2 companions and it will considered a group of 4.

Whats up REDDAWG!?!

PLEEEEASE tell me you are coming back. Dash is 100% on the mark there. Its definitely boxable, and even with the flubbin /follow problem AND the lack of a ui macro system... its still doable.

Yeah I just got in last night with my brother, we are on a different server. I will probably roll up some folks where you guys are boxing though too.

Thats cool about the companions... makes it really easy to scale the group for my brother to play / join with other boxers etc.

Thinking of trying a BH + a sniper.

Thats awesome. Theres a boxer guild on Rakata Mind Prison.. Legion of Doom, and theres a mix / non-boxer guild on Terentatek.

Kris 1234 is currently 4x boxing, as are a few others. Im currently dual and sometimes going solo. A lot of people are doing solo swapping right now because there is the "/follow" problem.

Yeah I just got the 2nd acct going last night but couldn't play them together due to the queue. Hopefully after this weekend that wont be a problem.

I'm also on rakata mind prison but i'm not boxing. Just playing an Operative atm. I think after i play a little more i might add another account.

I didnt beta so i'm enjoying just learning it.
