Diary of a new dual-boxer (Potentially long-winded)

[Solon]

Congrats and welcome!

1) I have found that always taking a wide path (like turning a vehicle with a trailer) helps a lot with your alts, and try jumping when one hangs up a bit. You'd be surprised at how that can affect their path.

2) As for the quests, and general multiboxing, the addon Jamba addon is spectacular. I highly recommend it, and as you seem to be able (and willing!) to read and understand the faqs/directions here, going to the sticky on it [Addon] Jamba - An assistant for multiboxers. 10th Update - 0.4b released. and a little reading will make your boxing much faster and easier.

3) Hrmm, I wish my ignore list was longer TBH. I have quit sending people to this site until after i tell them you need 5 accounts and they respond intelligently. (Yes, I am aware that you don't need 5, but in for a penny, in for a pound right?)

4) Oh, yes they do! It gives you a lot of room to play with odd ball talent specs and class combos.

Have fun!

Ah yes, I read about that a few days back. Thanks for the tip, I have added the link to my favourites and will investigate it shortly

I'm still tweaking the basic stuff I know how to do and adding a bit of polish to my set-up. My healing macros were a bit crude but I have sorted them out and have thrown gift of the naru into the mix. I am trying to avoid using the number keys for healing and want to get used to using shift/alt in conjunction with them. Hopefully this will make is easier to keep the combat abilities simple as shaman end up with quite a few spells/totems. Its like learning to play WoW from day one again...so much fun!



Oh, and I re-rolled my duo and played them up to level 10 again. This was an invaluable exercise in getting used to the set-up, keys, macros etc.

Thanks for the support guys, its nice to see a friendly community here! :thumbsup:

Hey there Combat Rock! We're at the same exact pace, basically . I've been rerolling and playing with my toons until I got a firm grasp on it, and then I started quin-boxing a team for the first time (the first non-test team :P). I hope you have some good multi-boxing experiences! I know I have .

Cheers buddy!

Yup, I think it was a worthwhile exercise when I re-rolled. I picked up a few little nuggets of useful info on the FAQs and tweaked a few of my macros. Things are progressing nicely and I have managed to overcome every problem encountered so far. The FAQ's on this site are absolutely awesome!

Good luck with the team mate, I will be adding three more accounts to my set-up this weekend.

Well, I'm going to stop adding to this thread, its kinda pointless as boxing is pretty much easy as pie!

Anything that confuses me or causes problems is cured with a quick sniff around this site. Thanks again for the pointers and encouragement folks and I'll no doubt catch up with you all on the forums. Oh, and I'll post some pictures of my team(s) and set-up when they are a little bit more presentable.

Have fun! :thumbsup:
