Hi there,

I have been multiboxing on Sinstralis-EU for 10 months.
I finally decided to share my experience with others thanks to my videos.

WTB mirror :(

The site you uploaded took took me over an hour just to get 15 seconds worth of video :( -- Have you considered Vimeo.com?

[Maat]

Yeah some mirrors plz.

GameTube took like 20min to load the video and at the end when you engage KT it just ends.

Really cba to wait 20min just to see that part. :S

Strongly recommend you to use vimeo, so freaks like me who always download movies can download the original file and enjoy the high quality.

[veronika]

Hi guys,

Yes, it is my first post here. Just don't look at the files if you don't trust me.
Sorry if you can't get the videos on gametube; I couldn't use Youtube for the Magister's Terrace one because it lasts longer than 10 mins.
Here are some mirrors for the vidz (Filefront also allows to download the full quality file):

Yes, I gear them with pvp stuff in order to tank a bit more, and it works.

Awesome! <3

Downloading it...

[Maat]

Ahh lot better!

Really nice movie.

Gonna nominate it on the video of the month thread, if you don't mind.

Just out of curiosity, can we honor a new female multiboxer among our lines, or you choose your characters names just so they fit the in game gender?

[Bena]

very nice! keep posting those movies.. they're awesome!

[Diamndzngunz]

lol awesome, and the music... Way different then anything I have seen in a video. GJ

[mrmcgee21]

Lol, you guys and your shamans. Surely oneday they will fix them(yes 5 elemental shamans = broke). Sorry but no group should be able to walk into a heroic and essentially just pewpew something like a boglord down before it even reaches them, you can circumvent 90% of the instances designs this way. I will give big props on the 1rst boss though, pretty quick organized movements ftw.

Thext

[opt]

no tank on the second boss, nice work. i agree your movements and bindings are really solid kudoz there.

[@Ang@]

Very nice video, editing and music... Great job :) :thumbup:

[caffiend86]

I really like the remix of Requiem for a Dream you have here, any chance thats posted somewhere as an MP3, etc?

Veronika is a new poster here but it's a well-known M-Boxer on our french battleground Cataclysm. I bumped into her a few times in AV since fall 07.

Those videos were already posted on WoW FR official forum, General section, about a week ago and still there http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=3405130911&sid=2

It's deffo someone Majestic_Clown may want to talk to.

Best regards,

[marvein]

absolutely amazing MGT run. you are my hero :O

[Skuggomann]

GJ man, real nice video :)

[Bueller]

Very cool. Enjoyed both very much.

My Favorite was the fool outside of MT attacking you...that made me laugh

[pinotnoir]

Seeing 5 shaman nuking makes me want to level 2 more up. My group has a tank and 4 dps but with those videos you can nuke your way through it seems. Great videos.

[wrs]

Bravo! Very nice! And impressive. I'm even more fired up now about getting my 5 shammies to 70.

[Ughmahedhurtz]

ROFL! Very nicely done, Veronika. Nerf grounding totem! :P

Even funnier remembering all the official forum QQ threads about Kael'thas and how he was bugged and impossible except for a perfect T6 group setup.

Oh, and welcome to the forums. :)

[edit] Out of curiosity, are you targeting your individual pets via focus or what? Color me curious.

[veronika]

Hi everyone and thank you for your comments.
Out of curiosity, are you targeting your individual pets via focus or what? Color me curious.I am currently using this kind of macro to assist:
/target player
/assist player
I noticed that targetting the main character prior to assist him was more efficient and quick. It still misses the assist sometimes, but I have learnt to play with this.
I don't use the focus at the moment since my keyboard setup isn't made for it.
If i need to target one of my character I just select it with the main and others will assist in order to select the same character (useful to heal sometime, since I have been too lazy to setup some /cast [target=player] healspell, and I am missing some keys to bind them).

I hope I answer the question.

Kind Regards,
Veronika

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Yeah, it just looked like you were individually targeting your pets on different mobs. Was just curious if you were just letting them aggro or doing something more complicated. ;)

[bigsmile124]

I just saw your videos and I was very impressed. I have a couple questions through. When your other 4 toons sidestep into a formation is that a macro?

[Toned]

Shaman elementals have a mind of their own you don't get to control who they attack :P

[Ellay]

Very nice videos :)

[razzy]

my god i can do heroic mrt up to kael with my pally 2 mages lock and priest, but your video just blew me away at how much firepower you have, takes me about 3 times longer to burn down the bosses than it took your 5 shamans. totally amazing

[Jubex]

I want to ditch my two mages for shaman now :( ...3 shaman 2mages.....or 5 shaman free purples. although...i guess i could still cc two targets and nuke the others. dling mgt movie i just did the shit on my druid in a full grp...and we wiped a ton cause of poor concentration. 1 wo/man 5 dudes has just been tooo much fun no errors but your own.

[bodefeld]

(Download worked finally.)

/target Veronika
/hail
/bow
/kneel

I still got goose bumps.

Awesome.

[Eteocles]

That was awesome...get up to the entrance, big enigmatic entrance...then some bitch comes and chain lightnings you; should've put in a sound effect of a record scratching off/stopping right before you wtfpwnt her "GODDAMNIT IM TRYING TO SHOOT A FUCKING MOVIE CHRIST" lol

[schlange]

How do you do that without a Tank? I thought any heroic instance would require a tank to even make it to the boss let alone kill a boss.

Please do share your strategy.

[veronika]

Hi and thank you everybody for your feedback and comments :-)

How do you do that without a Tank? I thought any heroic instance would require a tank to even make it to the boss let alone kill a boss.

Please do share your strategy.Simple strategy : Full DPS :-)
The less the mobs live, the less I take damage.

[Umka]

Thank you, very interesting video!

[Tonuss]

That was awesome, Veronika!

[Jutto]

Very nice work Veronika! Actually it was after I watched your MGT movie on warcraftmovies that made me roll 5 Shamans (ok Ellay had some part to do with it as well :) ), but anyhow.
Thank you I guess :).

[Boom]

Just amazing. :)

What alot of folks on these forums don't seem to understand about multiboxing shaman in PvE, is the effect 5 DPS has on an instance designed for 5 people.

Think of it this way... if you have to design a boss for 5 people, you ASSUME you have 3 DPSers at best. The other two slots are a Tank and Healer as many multiboxers have chosen.

But when we go in with 5 DPSers with GOOD DPS, you're talking about adding 66% to your DPS on the boss. Which is nuts. It's not designed to take that for long.

The only danger comes with a boss does too much damage to a toon. Earth Elemental to the rescue. When you're running 5 DPS, you DONT need a tank to last that long. I still haven't tried a heroic yet, but most 5 man bosses I come up against rarely last more than 20 seconds. Sometimes I still have an Earth Elemental standing around asking "What's next boss?"

/salute Veronica

Very very well done, and very entertaining to watch. Thanks for making the vids and taking the time to post them here.

Can't wait to see what you post next!

Boom

[Tdog]

I've been running BFD runs last couple of nights with my 5xshammy team just blowing right through shit. Thing is though with shammies you kinda have too. It's a all an all out, no guts no glory type of scenario. Lots of fun I must admit :) Can't wait to get my elemental totems.

[Lokikinator]

Hi Veronika,

I'm a fellow French player from Sinstralis, alliance side though :).

I've met you quite a few times and here comes some nostalgia (http://i46.servimg.com/u/f46/12/26/46/41/wowscr20.jpg). Please don't mind my lack of add-ons and such, my warr was my first char and I was a full time noob back then xD. If you’re wondering, I managed to escape :P.

I'm glad I finally get a chance to talk to you, and congratulate you for bringing the edge of WoW hardcore in France.

Aellie showed us the way, You bring it to France.

I'm personally triple-instancing shamies (http://i46.servimg.com/u/f46/12/26/46/41/wowscr18.jpg), not yet 70 cause I'm way too lazy :p (some 3on3 action in mind ^^). By the way Draenei owns, a lot. Nerf 3 Gifts of the Naaru on the focussed toon while you zerg (frost shock to keep aggro, who said shaman can't tank ?).



Not long ago my guildies and I were preparing for the TK run of the week and here you come with your totem army :).
You can guess the outcome on TeamSpeak and the bunch of QQing that followed the quick deaths of the mindless dumbs rushing with neither strats nor any PvP skills what-so-ever.

I tried to explain what multi-boxing is about (at least my own view) but we all know where that road leads : more QQing. I don't think casual players will ever understand why we want to play "the hard way".



Any way, congrats for your videos and your ability to control your shamans, but I don't really understand why you have key-binding problems. Do you use a /castsequence to drop your totems or one key per toto ? ?(


My 2 cents : F1 => all toons minor heal n°1 toon, F2 => n°2, etc. Quick and easy to find macros.
I personally prefer not to target anything over than hostiles, it keeps the macros clearer.




As a newb boxer :P just wondered how well you tank them as they hit quite hard do u gear with more stam or not or is it just a general NUkeeee.

Veronika is just doing the same thing Panzerkins (http://www.wowwiki.com/Druid_builds#Panzerkin_AKA_Moonkin_Tank_.2853.2F8. 2F0.29) do : -5.6% crit worth of resilience to be crit-immune and a high enough armor for effective health (http://www.tankspot.com/index.php?pageid=EffectiveHealth). Aka smart ways to use PvP gear in PvE ;). And you still have some big badass earth elementals for the nasty ones ^^ (round-robin cds for the win).



Please bear with my not-so-good English, thanks for reading my post.

[darksice]

All I gotta say to that 5 box shaman is wow... my jaw dropped and hit the floor...



I don't think I have picked it up yet either...

[slox]

do you play arena games on each char or 5 man it?
