Other boxing games?

[Drizzit]

Has anyone tried to box other games? Like starcraft or the orginal warcraft stuff. How about FFXI that was my first mmorpg took me a month to get to 20 and get my second job, took ages to get a group and you need a group after lvl 6 almost. Biggest turn off of FFXI is the whole lvling down. Spend 2 hours killing rabbits and then a bee kills me and brings me back down to where i was 2 hours ago (Is FFXI still around?).

How about guildwars? I wouldn't mind trying that one. Played it solo and loved it. Also no monthly fee.

I haven't heard of anyone doing this, but it's certainly doable given these factors:
1. No /follow, but you can target an ally/enemy and auto-run to that person
2. Assist is available by calling out a target on one party member and pressing "t" on the remaining party members to assist

I used to play guild wars hard core before I started playing WoW. I believe after I left coordinated spike groups were nerfed quite a bit so I'm not sure how PvP-viable this would be anymore.

Not that I recommend the game itself, but multi-boxing in Star Wars Galaxies is about as easy as it gets, honestly.

The macro system in the game helps make this one of (if not 'the') easiest games to box.

I can run 4 and 5 (max group is eight characters in this game with zero technical issues. I run a Jedi (tank), Officer (buffs, aoe, and ranged), and Medic (buffs, aoe/dot, ranged, heals). Farming = ultra easy mode, honestly.

I run 2-3 macro's on each character, some with timers, others are keystroke activated with multiple events chained.

I don't use the FPS style target system. This allows me to use target commands, assist, follow, etc.,.. Once my tank is attacking, I can hit the assist macro, then have it set to auto launch my primary 3-4 attacks.

Officer buffs are on a timed macro which repeats itself. Medic macro is the same way. Since Medic has to target the character they buff, the simple target command followed by player name followed by 4-5 medic buffs. You can get the macro to buff all of the players in the group... tar 1, buff, tar 2 buff, etc.,..

You could use this same setup with new players to level, I suppose. It would make grinding fly.

As far as setup... I use 3-4 PC's, 1 wired keyboard to main PC, and 1 wireless keyboard w/ 3 receivers. It's reliable enough to work with this system really well.

For PVP... 1 BH and 3 Commando's... or really, all Commando's... why not? But if you have the BH as main... and 3 commando's... the dmg output at max range will very seriously roll right over the top of anyone and honestly, most groups too.

Things die quickly.

There are few people multiboxing EQ2 (lots of 2 boxers).

From what I have seen. Wow is much easier to multibox than EQ2 .. but I havent played WoW since the 1st month it was released.
