Zappys vs 4 paladins + priest -- 5 boxing on 1 pc.

Long time lurker here, and decided it was finally time to post.

A little background info here. I three boxed til about 68, then xferred my daughters L60 shammy to a new account, and 4 boxxed them until they all hit 70. After a while, I decided that I wanted a paladin for tanking and another shammy for bgs, so i started 5 boxing about a month ago, so if you check their gear, you'll see one of them is under par for gear.

Much props to all the useful threads as I started with the /focus follow the leader method, then took some time to get the focusless, targetless, leaderless setup working. I wrote a small c# application to write the keymapping files as that's a major headache, and one of these days, I'll make it a little more user friendly so that I can share it. Right now, it's got some hardcoded special keybindings it. :(

As far as system specs, I'm running a Q6600 with 8gigs of ram on XP64 with dual 8800GTXs on a 30" monitor. After this last patch, I lost so much performance and I'm sure others running at high resolutions (2560x1600) have been looking for a similiar solution. Here's my solution: Copying your entire wow directory to a new folder C:/Clones/etc... Then launch the cloned copies and have minimal addons and set it at minimal graphic settings. From within keyclone, I set my primary to use max settings on everything, and have the clones launched from the clones directory, and now I'm sitting between 20-60FPS in most areas. Shatt is the worst and I still see around 25FPS there. Are there any other ways to accomplish this?

Anyhow, I normally do 5s with a RL friend playing a druid as a healer. Last night, he stepped out for a smoke, so I snuck in my 5th for a match, and was terrified to see 4 paladins and a priest. They charged in I was saving my TS nuke, til I noticed they hadn't bubbled yet, so I hit that, and focused on the priest, not expecting 3 of the paladins to die instantly. One of them didn't even get to do any damage:

Don't laugh at my dominos setup. one of these days, i'll go through it and clean it up.

As I like to say: They can buff a class all they want, but that won't make the players any better.
