Multiboxing in LOTRO

[Xtremepayne]

I forgot to add you will find me on Melendor server. I am a member of Cliff Diver of Middle Earth and I am currently boxing 3 Hunters, which will change in the future as the 3rd hunter hits 60.

My Characters names are as follows
Martrina-Main
Dargoros-Alt
Bawl-alt
Korella
Xtremepayne
Orici
Shadorian
Kimsari
Hoci
Doci

Feel free to send me a tell and we can share information.

Cool sounds good, I don;t play on any other server atm though. If you're ever on Brandywine we'll have to gank HoC or something. I was thinking of starting up a third account for a minstrel so if I do that I'd be doing a two hunter/min team or a RK, Hunter, Min. I also have a lev 60 Guard so might rotate him in for some of the harder 3 mans etc.

Do you have an effective way of assisting? or targeting?

Sorry for the late response, somehow I didn't get any email telling me about the new posts.

For assisting and healing, first, I make sure the group is always in the same order, as you can see in the videos, its always the same, to do that, just make the leader send the invites and accept with each char in the same order.

To assist I make them press shift+F2 (assist leader)
For the heals its more complicated cause each of the healers will have to press a different F key to select each char.

This is my char order:
Kintaro
Dairou
Liukang
Kunglao
Boraicho
Shujinko

For example, if I want all my RKs to select Liukang, the setup would be:
Dairou hit F3
Liukang F1
Kunglao F4
Boraicho F4
Shujinko F5

With target forwarding is easier.

And here it is the latest episode
Epidose 7: Bogbereth

If you invite your characters in the same order each time then setting up the keys shouldn't be to much of a problem. It took me long enough but I managed to to successfully run 2 hunters/minstrel and be able to heal all 3. I even took it further by adding in 2 of my kin and did Mormoz.

Epidose 8: Forgotten Treasury

never enough time heh ... anywhoo im gonna go make me some tea and com back and wath your newest episode i love them ...

im glad im finding more boxing in lotro as well i feel left out a lot in these WoW threads :P


... off to get some tea and watch /pulls out a bag of popcorn and some napkins :P

This worked on offensive spells, but what about heals.

lotros skill forwarding built into game means your slaves have leader targeted and ALL attack skills will pass on to your mains target ... and all beneficial buff spells / heal etc go to main not the enemy the game knows which are for you and which are for the enemy its pretty FLUID

[Multibocks]

wow that does sound pretty fluid. First part of the movie I kept going, wtf didnt he already kill this guy?? The last encounter looks like something that if the developers saw your movie would make them unkiteable in a hotfix, lol.

Fun thread to read, I haven't watched all of your videos yet, but I have been 2 boxing lotro for a while. Trying to get back into it from the recent break I took. I play on Gladden. I have Frostt my 60 guard and Truwen my 42 RK, i am thinking about putting a hunter or a mini in the group and do 3 mans when they're 60. (I Do have a 60 mini on my 3rd account). Though, I think it would be fun to run the min, rk, guard. I just have to figure things out with it. I suppose it would be a tad more complicated...maybe..

How do you keep up on heals, dps and tanking?

Thanks fort he fun adventures of your team, it is interesting to watch. =)

Thanks for posting these, I've been boxing WoW for a while, but it's getting boring so I tried out LoTRo last weekend. Single account so far, but of course I've been wondering about boxing it. The starter areas in LoTRo are pretty awesome.
