Seeking Suggestions

Ok first off this site is awesome, it pushed me over the edge to finally try multiboxing out. So this brings me to my first question which is kind of opinionated.

I RAF'ed myself and on my main account I want to lvl a lock, and I'm having a bit of trouble trying to decide what to lvl it with. I thought about trying out lock/lock because people in past threads here have said its really fun and fast to lvl. However being a first time multiboxer I'm kinda worried about having to not only manage myself and my alt, but both pets. So then I thought maybe lock/priest because I've lvled lock before and I know healing wont be a huge issue so I figured I'd have room to go shadow instead of disc/holy(edit: or perhaps just use the priest as a healbot for infinite life taps?). It'd also be nice to have a priest to maybe boost future accounts once my RAF has run out.

So yeah, if anyone would like to share their experiences with lock/lock or lock/priest or anything else lock/**** for that matter I'd love to hear it. Is it really all that more complicated to keep track of two pets? Thanks in advance.


Oh also before I forget, I can't really find much on jamba-follow, but from what I read isn't your slave supposed to go back to following you after combat? I can't seem to get it to do that automatically without hitting my usual follow key.

For a first time multi-boxer I highly recommend taking two of the same class. Pets (especially warlock pets that don't need to eat) aren't that hard to manage. You'll basically need to add a /petattack type of macro. There should be some good ones in the wiki. If you're still intimidated I would think the absolutely easiest class to learn how to dual-box on would be a pair of mages. By the time I got to about level 20 though, I got bored with my first set of dual-boxed mages. Hybrid classes offer a lot of possiblities for later use: paladins, shamen, druids...

I'd say paladin / lock. Paladins can stand up front and tank all the damage, or you can have em healbot you. Then at max level you got the possible tank / healer / DPS + pally's are among the best boosting classes.

Actually paladins are just freaking overpowered and are a great class. Pretty fun as well.

When I started out i ran a Lock/Druid combo, I was a tough bugger to kill =P

Also done 3 locks, that was fun too =D
