New member - What's multi-boxing like in Rift?

[bek2k1]

I'd suggest against doing only clerics, because levelling takes much much longer than in wow and you might find yourself at 60 wanting to raid and having only one class to choose from. (Just speaking from personal experience)

PVE still has follow. Only warfronts don't.

Rift is the second best game for boxing (imo) after wow but it trails wow by a pretty big margin. You can definitely do IAs and quests, and can do dungeons if you are patient and experienced at boxing.

Thanks for that tidbit of info. I hope you don't mind if I throw a few more questions your way, luxlunae:

1.) What group make-up would you suggest for multiboxing end-game 5man dungeons?

2.) Is it possible to multibox the endgame raids with a group of 10, and has anybody done this before?

3.) How hard is multibox pvp now that warfronts don't have follow?

ill do 3 after getting round follow in wow in bgs and i have played rift i can not think of a way. itw/ctm just does not work like wow theres no pets u can target and no 2player mounts. so i would say very hard. and before i left they said they removed it becouse off boxers and would ban me boxing there. i left the g
ame before it went live.

Yes

Yes

Yep, I did this when I was playing Rift and TDQ was current raid content. See TenxFun on YouTube for videos.

Also, luxlunae pretty much nailed it overall. Rift is fun to box and a great alternative to WoW. However, WoW does beat it out imho.

If you DO play in Rift, I recommend IAs for most of your leveling adventure. (Instant Adventures)
