Q: Should you Multibox?
A: If you think it might be a fun option...


1. Two toons will not level faster then one toon. It will be faster to level two toons together, then to level one after the other, because you get shared credit for kills and some collections, but most collections are one toon and then the other toon. And doing collections twice, is definitely slower then doing them once. Similarly, doing kills (or collections where everything drops once, ie both toons level together) is faster then doing them once with one toon, and then another time with a second toon.

2. Not sure in terms of percentage. Kill quests and collections where everyone gets to loot, is a bit faster for two toons then one, as respawn time is tied to the number of toons in an area, so respawns will be quicker. Also, you kill quite a bit faster with two then with one. And with Assist the Active Toon (with the Follower/Slave) combined with Interact With Target, the slave looting is not much of a slow-down. But collections where only one toon gets to loot, will take twice as long.

3. Boxing is pretty basic, at its simplest. You'll have some method for the slave to follow the master/lead toon. And some method for them to cast at the active toon's target. Not that hard to learn in a day or two. Depending how complex you want things to be, it can take a quite a bit longer to have your software/macros tweaked. Two of the same, is marginally easier then two different classes, for PvE play; for PvP play, the more androgynous the set up, the closer you'll be able to play at close to optimal levels.
