Setting up a Melee boxing team HOW TO** (ie how to use click to interact to make melee boxing work! )

[thinus]

I'm not sure why it's made out to be so complicated. You don't need any of the click to move or any of that.

Your spells as a DK, Warrior, Rogue will start your attack anyhow, and if it doesn't a /startattack and a /follow <main> is all that's needed.

Plus, my auto follow strobe is on with no problems, and there's no need for the interact with target key.

And you also have to position mobs carefully to make sure all your alts are in melee range.
What the OP is describing is setting up a system so your melee alts will *MOVE* to the target by hitting the interact key.

I'm not sure how you mean "carefully"

The field of melee is great enough that you really don't need to be careful.

You walk through the mob, you turn your main around.........and you're all in range.

That's why I posted a video of it. Even showing that multiple mobs were easy to position.

I don't know what game you are playing but in my world mobs are not easy to position. Mobs tend to run to weird positions when they switch aggro, frequently they will run behind the target they are attacking. Most of the time running through a mob will work but sometimes they will not stand still and just turn around, they will path to a different location which will probably be out of melee range. Maybe it is just because of latency on my connection but with a 200+ ping I *GUARANTEE* mobs are not easy to position.

And when you get multiple mobs they tend to spread out around the target that has aggro which frequently places them far enough to the side or behind the group so they are out of melee range. I know, I have been meleeing with my 5 shaman from lvl 1 to lvl 55 where they are currently at and there are lots of times I am able to land spells on a target but I get the "You need to be facing your target to attack" message. Not to mention stoneclaw aggro pulling mobs into weird positions.

Then you get ranged mobs that root. When a ranged mob that roots has aggro on a target and it roots the target it will run out of melee range and use ranged attacks and they seem to run in a random direction as well which will often put them behind your group.


So, yes, you don't NEED the interacting but for some of us having problems with mobs pathing weirdly it will certainly help more than it will harm.
