I've started multiboxing and gotten the basics down, I've climbed the learning curve to where things start to get complicated, and am edging away from hotstrings, or at least not 9 million of them.

Thing is I have too many options and combinations available to step up from the basic "push 3 to follow party1, push 4 to assist party1, spam 2 to bolt the target or 5 to shock" to make sense of it all. I start to have a grip but it all just starts unravelling.

I'm RAF leveling 4 shammies atm on an RP server with keyclone on a dual core XP32 4 GB 8600 GT 2 HDD box and a 22" monitor. Eventually I'll group the 4 with a feral, pally, or mage on my main account. I hate arena and currently just tolerate BGs (feral struggles, maybe the shammies will improve my outlook), so I can stick with software.

I have a Belkin n52te speedpad I've been trying to configure so I can be more effective raiding with my feral but still be able to swap to my 61 prot pally or 64 mage without major changes.

Now my wife (who rocks) got me a Logitech G15 keyboard and a fairly studly wireless mouse (a VX? or something similar) for my birthday. I've got a viable Keyclone setup that I like.

I've been reading up on Jamba waiting for it to have that degree of polish and "we've killed all the big bugs" to put it in, as I'm not coder enough to troubleshoot it intelligently. Better to wait for it to mature, I think it's about there.

From my reading I like the Focusless leaderless setup for PvE, it will give me the flexibility I want in changing leaders on the fly but don't have to litter my keyboard with "over 9,000" keybinds. Can also be used later when I bring in a true tank, the shammies can dps the target while the tank targets and pulls the next mob.

The place where I stumble is in the "let's staple all of this together", trying to run a Jamba based shammy team with a speedpad, G15, new mouse and a focusless leaderless macro set. I can layer macros on top of macros and never make anything work if I'm unlucky.

I admit I'm mostly getting myself confused in the theory/setup rather than just jumping in to DO it. Thing is, my time to play is limited at home (small children) so I've often weighed the decision of "start fighting with the settings and hardware" vs. "just keep using the crude and simple arrangement you have for now" and went for simple. This is because I don't want to waste too much of my 90 day RAF and because the constant interruptions from my kids means it's hard to have that unbroken stretch to figure out the setup.

I have tons of HD space, so I have 5 folders for my 5 man team (which is currently only 4 man) and a separate folder for my main account and my raiding toon with all the extra addons.

Anyone got any insights or run a similar setup and have some tips?
