Anyone else ever do this? Multitasking ftw

My main toon is a BT-raiding mage, but I started 5-boxing an all-shammy team recently (level 37 as of tuesday night). The past few nights I've been raiding, and while clearing raid trash -- one of the most boring tasks in WoW -- I've been logging into one of my other accounts to level tradeskills. Lately it's been fishing.

4/5 shammies are at 225 fishing and ready for the quest, all are at 225 cooking. And I have yet to miss a sheep etc on my main while doing this. Granted, fishing isn't exactly hard, but it does take your attention every 10-15s to find the damned bobber.

If I'd rolled my 5th shammy on a 6th account I could keep her up to date as well >.<

I like the way you think. Too bad my guild would get a little mad if I did that. Miss a taunt here, a sunder there..... hey, who died! :rolleyes:

I guess 5 box fishing would be a bit like raid healing. Constantly looking for something to move then getting your mouse over there as fast as possible.

I used to mine with an alt while healing in molten core.
