hello. great site! im new to dual-boxing and WoW in general, been playing a few weeks. i just came over from EQ, i held out as long as i could, lol, and have realized that 2-boxing in WoW is ALOT different than EQ. my plan is: to 2-box 2 hunters to 70, and then ill have one on each account to powerlvl other toons, as ive heard/read that hunters lvl the fastest, and im in no hurry to reach the end game. been raiding for the last 6 years in EQ and am looking forward to lvling up a couple toons. does anyone have any tips or suggestions on what i need to know about 2-boxing 2 hunters? and macro's i should use? software to download? im going to be using my desktop for one account and a laptop for the other. if playing 2 hunters is completely stupid, tell me that too, lol. really looking foward to getting into WoW, so any help is appreciated. thanks.

Hunters would be super easy to level, and not a bad way to get your feet wet as far as WoW goes. it seems to me that if you are leveling with the intention of boosting up other characters with your level 70 i am not sure the Hunter(s) would be optimal {Correct me if I am wrong all}... I could be completely off base though since my experience with level 70 hunters is limited to getting blown up by them.

When I switched from EQ to WoW I started off by going with a healer+other combo for a duoing, but that's mostly due to duoing a cleric + war in EQ for years and years and years... i just became very accustomed to having that pocket healer. The biggest "gotcha" that I had when switching over was the pace of combat and just overall timing mechanics, once you get used to the subtle differences you will find that there is very little difference between multi-boxing either game.
