Upon experimentally leveling some toons up to 10 and trying out some BG's I ran into a problem. It turns out you cannot join bg as a raid group at all.
So is it possible to enter as 10 man only by a chance, or is there a quaranteed way. I wud like to know. Thanks.
From the addon's description:
Quote:
Preform AV Enabler allows the group/raid leader to solo queue everybody in the raid group simultaneously with a button press and to see the queue status of everyone with this addon installed for the purpose of increasing the chance of the raid getting into the same battleground.
Well I can say that this greatly devalues tha possible value of multiboxing to me. If I have to waste 1-2 hour on an evening to try and get into one bg together, I'd say that seems pretty weak from a multiboxing standpoint to me.
Multiboxing isn't easy. From your post history I think you may want to re evaluate the reasons you're wanting to multibox. Seems like you're looking for the easiest way out. Multiboxing isn't that way.
My post history? Holy shit? Most of my posts have to deal with hardware-related issues. In fact I've only made one post in the multiboxing team composition forum. That's a really nice way to draw such conclusions, isn't it?Quote:

Leveling a 5 man group for the first time requires a decent amount of understanding and research. You are trying to level 10 at the same time and just now you realize that you can't que all 10 together?
Seems like you are a little behind in the research department.
Instead of trying this and trying that, just lvl 1 group at a time. Or lvl one group until your rested is full on the other group and then switch. Much easier to understand instead of wasting alot of time playing the guessing game for fastest xp possible.
As a note to OP...using Preform AV Enabler is really your only option and it is used by those that run the preformed AV groups. The leader yells out to click the enter bg button to the group and everyone clicks at the same time. While it is not perfect, that majority of the time it does work. With boxing you just have to have either macros set or enable mouse repeater to click the join button on all toons at the same time and wait to see if they all get the queue at the same time. It's not guaranteed and never has been.
With AV Preform enabler...
Everyone has the addon, and it is enabled.
They are in a raid together.
The leader presses the queue button, which has everyone queue at the same time.
You get a millisecond delay, showing the different times that people have queued.
In theory, it should be pretty close.
This part doesn't matter exactly.
Once a queue pops, you see it in the AV Preform window.
Ideally, you want the queue to pop for everyone within 0.20 seconds give or take.
Even if the queue pops at 0.00 seconds difference, that is not a guarantee that the queue won't be split, but the chances are in your favor.
If you're doing the bonus honor battleground, it is very hard to get everyone into the same BG.
Simply because of the sheer number of toons who are all queuing at the same time.
If you pick a different battleground, that is not the bonus honor BG, there won't be nearly as many players queuing and you're much more likely to get everyone into the BG.
You can also queue with Oqueue (from www.solidice.com/oqueue).
This is similar to AV Preform Enabler, but instead of everyone queuing at once as individuals.
Each group leader queues at the same time, as a group.
There still is no absolute guarantee that your toons will get into the same BG together.
But because they're queuing as a group, worst case scenario you get five toons into one BG and the other five into a different BG.
Don't worry, it's pretty easy, I 8 box shams in BGs so I have to get round not being able to queue as a raid as well. But, I get constant queue pops using this simple method...
2 groups, queue as group with the leader of each group, sit back and watch the BG pop (i put my mouse over the wow tabs which brings up a preview of each tab)
This way, either both groups get the same one or they don't. No 8 or 7 chars getting it. If one team doesnt get it, leave queue on the team that does and requeue. Repeat til in the BG.
PS: I recommend only doing the 40 man BGs as a 10 boxer
