So i got all the macros, got all the addons...
i create my 3 rogues, nice names..
It hits me as i go to collect my first 6 tough jerkys
My main character is ahead of the rest when i go up to pull on him the other two cant hit him...
And the after every fight they become unfollowed.
Rogues... suppose to not be multi boxed?
I wouldn't multibox any melee in general. I hear you can do one, but play them as the main with the ranged/casters on follow.
A few things to remember:
I normally run slightly past the mob to one side, then turn to face it once my alts break follow from melee hits. Watch my enhancement shammy melee movies to see how I basically do most of this. Do NOT be afraid to reposition/refollow your alts to make sure they face the mobs properly. Watch my ZF video during the temple/Sgt. Bly event to see what I mean by "180-degree arc."
- Melee hits will break /follow. Sucks, but deal with it. :P
- Melee range is like 3 yards with everything but tauren, who are 9 yards.
- Melee can hit anything within the frontal 180-degree arc.
Also, remember that mobs will tend to reposition themselves depending on your actions. You'll learn how they react the more you do it.
Don't sweat it. ;) Not many people do it because it's complicated. Keep at it. You'll get used to it so it's nearly second nature. GL!
i tried 3 box rogues and was successful.
your main will lead of course with 2 lagging behind. Once you hit the mob then over shoot him and turn back towards him with your alts following closely behind. Then you work the mob between your 3 toons. easy peesy. The mob will alternate between the two groups and you can constantly backstab or whatever else your rogues are good at. Usually the melee will finish the mob off fast. Your going to have to learn to target fast though. Using the number 1 key(attack) will automatically retarget if u lose it.
3 rogues are a great combination IMO. good luck with them.
Pleasure to have you respond to me, well noted name in the MB family
Quick Q.
you use /follow focus and macro everything? or do you use addon, i have searched and yet to find one that can do that
I have a dream! A dream that my three little rogues of all skin colors and facial hair types will live in harmony. I have a dream that one day i will see a Paladin healer in 3v3 drop to 25% health because i 3x crit ambush his face.
<3 MLK but it seemed fitting. cuz this is F* hard....
Update#1 As im playing and responding ever so often.. right now im level 2, fixed some macros made new ones
im just doing /follow focus after everything, itll be annoying for sure. but it works. Ill see how the rest goes, looting is always a pain in the arse.
Anyhow if suggestions keep em coming <3 3 rogues.
It's actually 5yd melee range and 5 yd hitboxes on all races/forms. The ONLY exception is Tauren humanoid form which is 9yd melee range/hitbox.Quote:

Also it's only complicated at first especially if you're use to the extreme ease of casting. Once you get the hang of it you'll be tearing stuff apart :D Like for instance atm I'm just working undead side in strat :D I hate that gd side with my casters due to all the silence and fears. Not quite a problem on my warrior team :)
read Tdogs awesome posts .. tons of info in there. It can be done but it's not as easy as casters.

Damn skippy. LOL! :D (WTB more macro buttons. I'd use trinibongokeeper or whatever but I have a ton of mods already. I'm skeered I'll create some sort of negative entropy that will destroy the known universe if I add another one. :P)
