Dual mages? Easymode
Dual warlocks? Yawn
Dual shamans? Pfft
Dual shadowpriest? Now we're getting there

Dual moonkin? HELL YEAH!

-----

Moonkin multiboxing is easy and effective, surprisingly so. If you have three or more you can focus on spellcrit over spelldamage but with only two - and if you are a sucker for big yellow numbers - collect spelldamage gear by leveling in the blood elf lands in your low levels, and keep dressing up in cloth from tailors, quests and instances until it's time to gear up in Hellfire Peninsula at level 58.

A test run, seeing what they're capable of, learning to love shifting out of Prowl and nuking my target down. Started after I caught that rogue trying to kill that mage in the Barrens when I had Fraps on in the background, I simply kept going!

Still stuck with the level 14 bracers from RageFire Chasm, unable to stick the cheap +12 intellect enchant on them, I started looking for alternatives. The only realistic choice at the time was to get 20 WSG badges and 405ish honor to trade for a pair of fine epic level 40 bracers with 16 points of spelldamage, so it was time to take them out for a spin in WSG to see if pre-Moonkin balance pvp would work out. Sadly, the battlegroup I am on is the worst one in Europe if you are horde.

Level 43, recently reactivated accounts, I do an AB for fun and oh my goodness it is so much fun with moonkin form. Not only do I get lots of love from everybody who sees them dance around wherever they are, but also lots of hate from whoever gets to suffer a moonfire barrage.

Current goals: Level up, gear up, pvp some more at 49, relocate to Alterac Valley at 51, level to 58 and gear up in HFP until 59.5, do AB AV and WSG, hit 60 and get level 60 HFP/Zanganmarsh gear, do AV until more than enough badges for level 70 gear, etc. Basic gearing up / boosting-twinking gearing in instances guide can be written and detailed if there's interest, like "place character here to be in range of the booster who loots the boss in order to roll on the gear"

I've never liked being Moonfire'd, the hugely annoying light appearing on top of your had is very upsetting. XD

Awesome vids and they do seem like a shitload of fun to play. xD

Mmh, there are at least 3 active multiboxers on Sporeggar at the moment, shame Felgold left though, 17 level 70's abandoned. *sniffle*

I think there's a tripleboxer on alliance doing warlock priest and I think warrior, saw a recently new guy appear fiveboxing shaman lowbies, just before I let my account time run out early April. Got two guildmates to try it but they were too cheap to continue, and I don't really have the budget to triplebox.

Bonus video: My solo hunter alt in AV demonstrating how fun engineering is - http://www.dailymotion.com/Mamiya645/video/x4zzcb_level-59-hunter-in-alterac-valley-w_videogames (basic video of clips put together one by one)

The shaman lowbies is Euph, there's also a dual warrior boxer I met in Hellfire Peninsula, then you and me.

Felgold who left.

That's all I knew, never noticed one on alliance, but will try to be on the lookout now that I know what to look for. ^^

A warrior duo? How does that work out? I've played with the idea in my mind but I cannot figure out how it works, must be some great dps


(edit)
Oh man. Level 44 = barkskin. Two uninterrupted hurricane equals a load of damage every second. Things got more fun.

Charge makes up for a lot, apparantly. Other then that, seems multiboxing melee just needs some getting used to. But it's not as bad as multiboxing two feral druids at least. XD

I've rolled a pair of human warriors on Karazhan EU to try it out, they're both at eight now and it is actually a lot of fun.

As for my druids, they're now 60, but the battlegroup is so crap new videos might have to wait until 70. Seriously. Even if the queues were faster I'd have no resistance to show in the AV videos as they are now, 15 players vs 40 horde would be a lot of alliance.
