As the topic says, I want to multibox a _RESTO_ druid and Shadowstep rogue. Now, I have never multiboxed before, I have read the stickies..

I can have 2 copies of WoW active at the same time, I have downloaded keycloner
But how do I get my druid to stealth (Cat form Prowl) while my rogue does the same?
And how do I target the one I want to heal if the rogue is my "main"?
Please give me a hint of how I should do this :)

By the way, they are both level 70 already.

Bind the same key to cast prowl as your rogue uses for Stealth; I use alt+4 on my rogues and 4 on my druids, pick whatever key you prefer and hotkey their stealth spells to that same key on both chars ;p

Keyclone also must be bought before it'll pass the keys, just fyi as you didn't mention anything beyond downloading it; as for the healing bit that's a bit more complicated, and there's multiple ways to do it from the same basic way you would(hit F2 to target the rogue if you're alone in a group then press the heal hotkey, being aware that you may push that key on the rogue too), or complicated /cast heal target=etc macros that I have no clue about and you'll have to figure out yerself lol

For a better understanding of how to write macros there is a terrific write up on the WoW UI & Macro forums ( About the only time you will ever see me say terrfic and wow forums in the same sentence :P )

It isn't a multi-boxing specific macro forum but it will give you a good idea of how to start off in writing macros. As for a macro for your druid to heal your rogue you could use something like this...


/cast [target=Rogue'sname] Name of heal

So for instance my rogue's name is Wynd I'd do something like this...


/cast [target=Wynd] Regrowth

The reason you don't want to use something like /target Rogue /cast heal is because then your druid will drop it's current target and then have to reaquire it. With lag and such it cuts off of your dps time.

Here you go.


Mashable Stealth :

Rogue: /cast [stance:0] Stealth
Druid: /cast [nostance] Cat Form; [stance:3,nostealth,nocombat] Prowl

Bind Both on the same key

Healing:

Im Carebearing my druid with my lv 70 warrior, I pull whole instances and let my druid to heal when needed (Hes only lv 37 :P )

/cast [modifier:alt, target=Effec] Regrowth; [target=Effec] Rejuvenation << Heal your Main
/cast [modifier:ctrl, target=Player] Regrowth; [target=Player] Rejuvenation << Self Heal

/cast [modifier:alt, target=Effec] Abolish Poison; [target=Effec] Remove Curse << Cleanse Main
/cast [modifier:ctrl, target=Player] Abolish Poison; [target=Player] Remove Curse << Self Cleanse

/cast [modifier:alt, target=Effec] Mark Of the Wild; [target=Effec] Thorns << Buff Main
/cast [modifier:ctrl, target=Player] Mark Of the Wild; [target=Player] Thorns << Buff Self

You should be fine with those macros for now.


REMOVE EFFEC & REPLACE WITH YOUR MAIN CHAR NAME :P

Emergency Stance Change for your Druid:

/cast [stance:1] Dire Bear Form

^^^ Very Useful if your druid is getting pwnt

also

/cast [target=mouseover,exists,harm,nodead][harm,nodead] Blind

^^ Put your mouse over a target and hit the key, it will blind your target WITHOUT you loosing target :P

for your rogue, this will save your bacon :P

Tagged... Awesome macros.

D/R is my next combo. The only thing I hate about my re-roll is not playing my rogue.

Will be changing these around for my priest as well. :thumbsup:

See. We aren't nasty...!!! :O

A well phrased question that hasn't been asked before gets a flurry of superb answers.
