hello i was wondering if someone knew some macros or addons that could make a warrior, priest, mage, warlock, and hunter work together?

Almost identical... I run Paladin (Prot), Priest (Holy), Mage (Fire), Hunter (BeastMaster) and Warlock (Demonology) and think they work really well together and are incredibly fun to MB

The main addon I use for this lot is Macaroon, to allow me to have a lot of buttons/bars with independent key binding, but PitBull is indispensible for monitoring targetting so I rarely have to glance over to the second PC/monitor.
Of course, Jamba is a given for all Multiboxers, surely

I play the Paladin on my main PC and mainly use first bar, bound to 1..= to tank with.

The other 4 are on my second PC, using KeyClone:

My Priest healer has a set of healing macros bound to ALT-1...ALT-6 doing the following
ALT-1 = HoT on the target of the paladin's target (which is usually the Paladin)
ALT-2 = Flash Heal on the target of the paladin's target
ALT-3 = Greater Heal on the target of the paladin's target
ALT-4 = Prayer of Healing
ALT-5 = Renew on named target (I use this when a guest has replaced 1 of my DPS and needs a heal)
ALT-6 = Greater Heal on named target

My Mage DPSs with buttons 2..6 firing a variety of fireball, scorch, pyro, living bomb, arcane missiles at current target.

Similarly, Hunter DPSs with buttons 2..6 which sends in the pet and fires off autoshot, arcane shot, scorpid sting, multishot, bestial wrath etc.
I feel my Hunter's DPS is less than it would be when solod as you just can't micromanage the shot timing and respond with pet attacks the way you would, but he still pulls his weight

The Warlock also uses buttons 2..6 which sends in the pet and fires off Cure of Elements, Corruption, Immolate, Shadow Bolt, Searing Pain, Incinerate and both forms of Drain.

In a dungeon, I would engage like this...

• stop the 4 from following (just tap reverse to break follow);
• target the first kill target with the paladin on PC1;
• hit E to get the other 4 to target my current target (they all execute a macro on E to take party1target as their target - NB: I use Pitbull unitframes to monitor all party members targetting etc from main PC)
• run in with Paladin
• hit 1 - this triggers Consecrate on the paladin, Prayer of Mending on the Paladin by the Priest and Hunter's Mark on the target by the Hunter;
• wait long enough to get a hit or two in;
• start using 2..6 to open up with the DPS;
• throw in ALT1/2/3/4 to heal as required;
• kill target 1, target next kill target, back to the "hit E" step above
• loot
• move on

That's the basics for combat.

When a bit of AoE is required, we stay in a bunch and I spam 9 which does:

• Paladin - Consecrate
• Mage - Arcane Explosion
• Priest - Holy Nova
• Hunter - Explosive Trap
• Warlock - Hellfire

and nothing lasts very long

I have macros on F9..F12 which are used for CC:

• F9 sets up and executes a Mage Sheep
• F10 sets up and executes a Priest Shackle
• F11 sets up and executes a Hunter Freezing Trap
• F12 sets up and executes a Warlock Banish

These use /focus to "set" their CC targets as I use the hardcoded party1 for my DPS/healing macros.

All 5 chars have other stuff on their bars (buffing, stoning etc) but it's mainly clicked manually (I used KavoomKM to move my mouse/keyboard over to PC2 for ease-of-use).

If it would help, I could grab screenshots of the various chars and annotate their setup but, to be honest, you'd be better off working out what works best for you, as it's you who has to play it

I'm using Xperl for my unit frames.

Get the SmartBuff mod to keep all of your buffs up and assign a hot key to activate it then just hit it from time to time. :thumbup:
