Still pretty new to multiboxing here; couple of weeks into the 5-man gig. Since I have never been a traditionalist I opted straight to the mixed team; babies hit Outlands day before yesterday after a couple of days resting at the inn.
Last night with the team ranging between 61-62; Prot Pally MT, Ele Shaman, Shadow Priest, Balance Druid & Frost Mage, we cleared both Ramparts and Blood Furnace.

While I cannot make any comparative analysis, I find the synergy between the group outstanding. I use the /click – castsequence macros with the various “,” spacing to account for cool downs, and save boss encounters my team never needs to stop to drink; with this in mind I am contemplating replacing the Mage with a Warlock, or Hunter. Would the Pally & (4x) Shaman have been easier? No doubt, as the learning curve of macro and timing sequencing is vital to the survival of the group; that however is exactly why I took the leap into Multiboxing in the first place.

Running 5-different classes has rejuvenated my love for the game once again, making each instance that we encounter fresh and exciting like it was way back when I ran my solo toon. Looking forward to WoTLK and beyond too is exciting; figuring out how to move 4-linked characters in harmony with my tank to avoid various swirling vortex’s of death in heroic encounters will keep my simple mind very occupied.
