New at Dualboxing, looking for advice

Hello I just start dual-boxing today and I got all my accounts setup, etc.

I was thinking of doing a Mage / Druid. Leveling through questing until level 12 with RAF and then doing instances to 60.

So I downloaded HotkeyNet, setup their script, http://www.hotkeynet.com/wow/wow-sample-two-on-one.html

I read most of the stickes but I still don't understand how you will accept / turn in quests efficiently, and the macro'ing.

I understand the /follow /assist and stuff, sometimes a bit buggy beacuse of the cast range, etc.

Now normally when I play, I bind a lot of keys, ctrl+number, and normal numbers, etc.

On my paladin, I would use the ctrl+number for healing, and normal numbers for damaging, etc.

How would i set that up on two different classes? A druid / mage? Using both as casters though.

Hope I was detailed enough, and thanks for any help, wonderful website this is.

So, if ur going to strictly play the 2 classes? or u going to be playing the shaman, druid, and mage?


Shaman+mage- You need to install addon called automaton, jamba, and pitbull ( or a variation of pitbull)..
Jamba= a addon that links that accounts so that they auto accept groups, trades, quests, focus, follow (pulsates every 1 sec.. different settings can make variables).. and all that
Automaton= skips all the unnessisary things in quests, group invites, summons, deaths, trades, says ding! which is funn in guild!, and more auto thinggs like going into BG. and passing on
Pitbull- a new UI that allows u to put spells anywhere on the screen and bind them to keys.. So for example, ur druid "ctrl 1:" could be set for a heal.. while on the mage "ctrl 1" could be a dps,.. or some sort of healing shield as defense... Or as you said " normal numbers" can be ur dps for ur mage and druid.. so 1 could be fireball still for the mage and a (starfall or something).. to 1. also.. THis would make it so that the mage is allways dps'n even when the druid has to heal..

Macros would look like this
Mage- fireball= "ctrl 1"
Druid- Moonfire (or whatever its called dam druids)= "ctrl 1"

Or
Mage- " fireball= "ctrl 2"
druid- heal....- "ctrl 2


If your going to play with ur paladin, you would just had to add another thing in, and find spells that are alike.. So,...

Mage- " shield= "ctrl 2"
druid- heal....- "ctrl 2"
paladin- heal.. "ctrl 2"

Or if u want just the paladin to do something you do

Mage- " nothing= "ctrl 2"
druid- nothing= "ctrl 2"
paladin- heal.. "ctrl 2"


Hope this helps.. ask a specific question and I can help u!

okay how would i go about, targeting who to heal? its easy with multiple macros but can i do it with just one

also is it easier playing the mage as the main and the druid as the follower? or other way around

ur going to want to have the druid in the front, because he can take damage while the mage sits backs and does dps..
as for healing.,.. u can have it with a lot of macros.. like /target druid /cast heal.. or /target mage /cast heal.. there are more intense macros that well.. im not even into yet..,

ty, i was going to have both be caster. (balance druid) but now that I think of it, having him feral would make more sense.

what he meant was... druid in moonkin form has an armor multiplier to their leather gear (which has higher armor values than cloth already). so let the boomkin lead.

try this:

on your slave's screen, make sure the person is looking down at a corpse and in zoomed view. mouse pointer can be almost anywhere. actually, if you dont need any information on your slave's screen, i suggest hitting ALT+Z to remove all UI/HUD things on screen.
