So i've been multiboxing a few games and always wanted to play EQ2 (tried it a while ago but buddies came back to diff game) I just am unaware of what a 2-3 box group would be good. I've been reading the forums and most like a warden/fury in the group with a tank or tank and dps? Like the merc system sounds very beneficial to leveling and have 2-3 would be fun for dungeons. Still rough around the edges with any and all of EQ2's lingo but i catch on quick.
I just started up a couple of weeks ago. Only really been playing a week as I took my time on the ISBoxer setup to make it expandable and adaptable for later levels.
I started 4 boxing but dropped back to three as I didn't like how much housekeeping there was with 4 chars.
I plan on picking up 3 mercs for the other spots.
My team of Bezerker (tank), Dirge (utility) and Beastlord (DPS) are only level 17 but it is fun so far.
I plan to pick up the following mercs:
Primary Healer - Inquisitor
Second healer - ? maybe templar
DPS - Ranger
I would just choose what you want for the first team, you can't go wrong with a Tank, Healer DPS though.
Warden is my favourite healer, with a Fury second. It really just depends on your healing style though -
Reactives (Templer, Inq)
Wards (Mystic, Defiler)
HoTs (Warden, Fury)
I am already planning my next team as this one doesn't have much "feeling" to it. I will be going:
Brawler - Tank
Fury - Healer
Swashbuckler - DPS
Pirate themed of course and wearing the pirate clothes from the Marketplace.
Have fun. This is a GIANT game with a lot of different systems. For instance I had forgotten that you need to level skills in this game like weapon skills - slashing, piercing and crushing. If you ignore one and get a great weapon of that type later on you need to do some work to get the skill up. I love it!
