A plea to all newcomers

[thefunk]

quick 2 cents from me - brand new to the world of boxing, keyclone instructions were dead easy, have started to experiment on macros and there's a huge amount of information which I will be trying out once my wife give me 5 mins...

keep up the good work!

oh and Katannah I know your post is ages old, but for anyone else with this problem and who doesn't know it, you can just copy and paste the wow folder to another location without having to reinstall it - might save you a day or 7

Awesome Post, but do you think people know how to read? No.

I do first time here first time dual boxing and no one had to help besides the info on this site. Once again GREAT JOB ALL!

Kudos and cheers!

Hi All,

New to the site. Just started my 2 toons 1 box experimentation yesterday. Definitely a great bunch of resources here and I hope to take full advantage. Hope you all don't mind another newcomer!

I am new to your nice site.

I read this plea to all new-comers.

I followed the first link about how to formulate a question.

I read and digested it.

I followed the second link about 'Guides'

It was full of broken links.....

The "Guides" link is to a Wiki page about Vyndree's Guide to Guides. The Wiki links are to sub-sections in Vyndree's guide which I suppose got broken over time and I suppose the Wiki should be updated. You still get access to all those links by just going to the "Vyndree's Guide to Guides" link on the Wiki page and scrolling down.

They've been working on converting the Wiki, so old post links are probably broken in a lot of places. Like thinus says, going directly to the Wiki will get you to the right places while things are in limbo.

Hi guys I tried to get some information from this link

Video - how to set up your very first WoW team <- Absolutely mandatory reading if you're completely new to boxing!!!

and it just goes to a search page. I had a look at a few links and none seemed to be helpful.

If anyone could post the link to the video that would be great.

Cheers

I've spent some time but I haven't really found any clues to my question: Should I Multibox? (probably not more than dual)

Here's what I am thinking of doing: Leveling 2 characters simultaneously from 80-85. My main is a Disc/Holy Priest but I'm pretty sure I'll level as Shadow. I have a second Priest that is almost identical. It is a long story how I ended up with 2 Priests but it has worked out well to have a second set of raid IDs. I also have an 80 Warrior that was my main back in BC. I'm really only practiced playing Protection. And I have a 80 DK that I could run.

My first preference would be to use the second Priest. However, if using either the Warrior or DK would speed up the leveling then that would be a big consideration. I would imagine running 2 identical Priests would be the easiest combo in terms of ease of multiboxing as well as speed.

I have the computer hardware to easily handle dual boxing. I have never tried it however. I run multiple accounts sometimes by alt tabbing (I imagine that made some people cringe) but that is obviously not the same.

So what it boils down to is:

1. Can you level 2 toons at once by multiboxing faster than you could level 1 toon running solo?
2. If not, how much extra time would it take? 10% longer? 50% longer?
3. With Cataclysm approaching in about 6 weeks, do I have enough time to learn to dual box efficiently enough to be able to meet the answers to 1 and 2? Again I am assuming running 2 identical Priests would have a big impact on this.

Many thanks to those that offer opinions or guidance!

a bit more would help to address the issue.

which advice and what's not where?
