If you do good in BG's you will get known quite fast, and also more often get support from your teammates against the haters.

True. If you are multiboxing in a BG and sucking, you will easily gain a bad reputation.

AV is a great way to start multiboxing... By playing defense you can have a huge amount of control over the outcome of a game (just back-capping towers will buy your team oodles of time). EOTS is also a nice one to get started with...

I agree with this.

AV is my best bet for winning.

Eots is a nice 2nd. In eots defense isnt as crucial as it is in AB. You cant just go and ninja a base in eots. Many people fail to realize this and waste time "defending" a base alone in eots. The only base in need of defense in eots is the one that is under siege, and here you have a nice advandage as a multiboxer. If the base you are currently stationed on isnt under attack you should immediatly run for the next weakest defended enemy base. Very importan: Run a long way around any enemys midfield so you dont get hung up in the middle

The best macros for AV:

Code:

/script ReportPlayerIsPVPAFK("target") -- and -- /script ReportPlayerIsPVPAFK("focustarget")

Holy...!!!!

You rock dude. Now I'm armed and dangerous for those PvP BG haters. /evil

I only use it for people who are truly AFK. OK, I used it a couple times for evil purposes. We don't want to be abusing this or else AV will just become a reporting war.

actually, and it works, u can just spamm report and it will take effect as if it were a person per click.

for the rest, from what all you guys said, WSG and AB seem to be the worst BG's for a boxer. I agree, and i actually think WSG is the worst one, so i'd better get some friends and get a fixed.

Have you read Vyndree's thread where she and Suvega were constantly reported AFK as a form of harrassment, and GMs / Customer Service reps didn't give a shit?

I seem to have completely missed that. Link, if available, please?

Actually I disagree, I think boxers can be really good in WSG, and not too bad in AB.

I would say 4boxing is probably ideal for both of these (since 5boxing is taking up 1/2 of the team in WSG, and 1/3 in AB, a bit excessive tying up 1/3 of the team defending a single node in AB, or 1/2 of the team guarduing the flag or dominating middle)

the reason boxing is powerful in WSG is you get amazing focused fire against flag carriers. Especialy if the enemy is trying to turtle up with their whole team, you can just run up and blast the FC and re-cap. THis is especialy effective when the 50% damage debuffs go up, elemental shamans can literally 1-shot even some of the better-geared enemies. If they have too much HP, just drop some shocks first.

I have tried this some in WSG. Its true that your burst is very good to recap flags. However this will only work against people that has no clue how multiboxing works. If you meet a few skilled enemys with atleast some expirience with multiboxers, just 1-2 enemies,rogues beeing the worst, can keep you occupied enough to keep you from the FC.

But I agree that WSG can work semi-well if you meet players with no clue how multiboxing works.

Anoter strat that has worked fairly well for me:

Defend the flag-room from the first wave of attackers. Put up all your fire-elementals and your enemies will often be so suprised/angry/no clue about whats happening that they will just lie there dead without releasing and watch. Often they are busy writing reports and making lvl1 alts to flame you:P
If you get this types of games, you will have allmost certain wins :)

I also recive alot of hate, especially in BG's. Ofcourse it's not fun, but I have to assume that when someone comes up to me and says "Idiot", "Lamer" etc, they are just yellos. But the positive comments makes up for it, when someone cheers you on or is impressed it's awesome ^^

But on my server it's usually cool. Many people in my main's guild know that I'm boxing and they don't mind.

So PvP Multiboxing hate... without battlegrounds.

I roll into Tanaris with my hunters. Do a quest or two. Then get corpse camped right outside town by a paid of rogues (65 & 70).
I get my paladin and shaman, and punish them. corpse camped for probably 30 minutes.
Alliance crowd gathers and start hating on me. /sigh
Lots of low level horde start gathering and doing the /spit game.
I kill them. And the goblins they thought would save them.
More horde 70s show up. About 5 or 6.
I drop totems.
More /spitting from horde and random "no life" comments from alliance.
I've got like 10 40sih horde and 7 or so horde 60 - 70s.
I blow heroism and 4x fire elementals.
I kill the town. All of it. goblins included. lol

Then I figure I've made my point. I logout and get back on the hunters.

Same two rogues instantly gank me and start the /spit routine.

At that point I decided it was time to logoff for the night. Go read a book or something.

Hunters = +200% idiot aggro

But u didn't make a point.. u just made people hate us more.
