I have a decked prot pally im planning on using as one of the toons.. im also going to RAF boost them all to 60 pretty much within a day instance grinding with the pally.

Mainly looking at getting ready to multi box WOTLK so i was wondering what the funnest and most overpowered makeup for PvE and PvP is looking atm. also if a pally isnt viable i get 120 free levels from RAF so i can boost another up to 60 in a matter of minutes.

Please leave your opinions on my system, and on group builds/makeups here. THANKS!!

PS: 5 shammies looks fun, but i would also prefer different classes.. not really an issue

I've got almost an identical system but Vista 64 and 8gigs of ram and I have very little lag anywhere, including Shatt, while 5 boxing.

As far as group makeup there are a ton of threads on this but I find it hard to beat PVE with a pally tank and four elemental shaman. If you don't mind a little more complexity you could go pally tank, 3 mages/locks and a priest healer. I ran that up to 20 and it rocked but was a little too complex for me as a beginning boxer so I started over.

We need a sticky that says "System requirements for multi-boxing: Set up trial accounts and see what your pc can handle."

You may not like it but he does have a point

I deleted the duplicate thread in the General forums - please take care to pick the right forum before posting.

Not surprisingly - this is covered in the sticky "Multiboxing Frequently Asked Questions"
