See stealth or whatever. Rogues have a edge in seeing other rogues iirc.

Heightened Senses in Subtlety.
Although you'd have to be on the rogue's and watching the screen closely for it to make any difference.

I wish , i can give Warlocks a Try. But i dont like Pets :-)

In fact it's like having two teams. I usually roll with felguards out, so it's like having a melee and caster team at once.
If you have boxed a melee team setting the slaves to someone and then hitting interact with target + ability is not much different than hitting peat attack.
You can even micromanage pet abilities.I do it specially when using voidwalkers to pop the shields and then hellfire.

I have played warlock since vanilla wow, so I know the class very well and know how to take advantage of it's abilities. Warlock is probably the most complex class to play and it varies alot depending on your build of choice, so I suggest you to try solo play a warlock and see if you really like the class. You will either love it or hate it.

multibox warlocks I found quite easy

dot, dot, dot - send in pets (Voids or Felguards) x5 = dead mob... rinse and repeat

cool

So far i've only multiboxed with druids, dk's, pallys, mages and shamans

Enhancement shaman - 10 pve+pvp
Paladins - 10 pve+pvp
Death knights - 8 or 9 pve+pvp, depends if i play with healer or not
Mages - 10 for pve
Moonkins - 5 for pvp until i get feared and 3 after my space owls have run to different parts of azeroth
7 for pve before you know how to manage eclipse
10 for pve after you know how to manage eclipse

I ve been boxing (x2) Spriests on Bwl (Tzu, Tzo). I'm new to boxing but heres my input on this class

PvP- Squishy even with 1300 resilience. Vamp embrace stacks (nice synergy) so this healing helps but still need to break shadow to cast binding heal (also nice synergy, have macroed to cast on each other). The dots are instant cast and non-directional so they are sooo much fun on those rogues who swirl around you. Double fear and double silence (on skip keys). Overall- this is a fun yet somewhat squishy duo in PvP. =7

PvE- Nice Dps with ALOT of unnoticed healing. This pair also returns mana to the group and must be a delight for any healers in the party. Has a nice Shadow AoE spell that I spam on mobs. Single target bosses with dots, mind blast then mindflay x2- then back to dots- repeat. Overall- very fun pair in PvE =9

EDIT: my major hangup with this duo is the squishyness. One of them will go down and youll have to rez. Is this a problem with other boxers in PvP?

Actually I play 3 hunters and they are actually not so bad. I kind of enjoy it. I can run instances easily with just 3. And im doing beast mastery by the way

[lightstriker]

Bear-10.5 easiest tanking all i do is swipe the trash. Root and nuke for pull.
Prot Pally-10 Great but Bear is just easier.
Unholy DK tank-8 maybe I am just too used to a Pally with a shield. Ghoul can off- tank, chain of Ice is not as good as Root. Death Grip best taunt for literally ripping mob off squishies.

Balance Druid-10, yeah Eclipse proc is hard to keep track but Starfall and Typhoon makes up for it. Even one Driud on my mixed team is enough, Starfall melts trash and boss adds, fire and forget. Got a some kind of emergency? Typhoon knocks them back, interrupts casting and dazed them. Oh, get Glyph of Starfall, otherwise it'll aggro the whole instance.

ShadowPriest-8 even as a shadow build it has the best AoE heals. Lower rate for mana intensity; it uses up mana at 2x the rate of other casters. Its drinks almost as often as my Prot Pally.

Elemantal Shamman- 'nuff said.

Warrior, Cats, Rogues-5 John fucking Madden http://www.wowwiki.com/File:Catdps.jpg

Warlocks-9(damn Hellfire and Rain) My fave until DK. Cataclysm-10(if the changes are good improvements.) i just love pet. A good pet player is like having an extra player with off-tank and CC. it keeps a lot of pressure off the tank and healer. ........next target.....next target....not dead yet? running off?......Pet will chase it down....next target....

Hunters-8 with ambivalence. I love pets but i couldnt believe how boring hunters are. Old low level Pally used to just throw up a Seal and Blessing then autoswing. i couldnt believe how Hunter was even more boring. Maybe its just the lack of risk. You stand back in mail and let something else take the hits. So its a good slave since i don't actually have to play them.

Mage - havent play in a while. Maybe less ground targeting would help

[jeepdriver]

I run a diversified 5box team

Prot/ret Pally
Holy/disc Priest
Enhance/elem Sham
Destro Lock
Frost Mage

Theyre pretty easy to box, especially with ISboxer. Im just about finished getting them all to 80, (got the pally and shammy to 80 first for guild raids) 1 lvl to go for the priest, 2 for the mage and lock. One thing that I have found, is that the Mage and Lock duoing are quite the force by themselves. I had thought at first I would have to re spec into Demon so Id have a tanking pet for those 2 to be able to get thru the dang phased areas I need to complete, but they are doing fine by themselves. They have nice DPS considering theyre mostly in quest gear and some regular dungeon gear. The only issue Im really having right now is managing procs and what not...Ive got to find an addon that announces it to the party instead of just the character. Im sure there is one out there.

As far as ease of multibox play, Id give the Prot Pally a straight 10....the shaman a 10 ( IWT for the win) Priest a 9 ( thanks to Isboxers repeater regions) the lock and mage both 8, and that only because of me missing the procs...which I hope to fix once I hit 80 on them all and start doing Heroics.

But as far as rating playability with any class, I think it really depends on what your doing to box....Hardware or software boxing? ISboxer? Keyclone? Octopus? 1 comp runnin all accounts or spread out over systems? I believe all that has a bearing on how well you can play them. My advice would be to think of a combo you may like to play, and give them till lvl 10 or 15....if its not for you, you will know by those levels. Wow is the most easiest game Ive ever boxed, with its autofollow system, and the support of addons, theres not much you cant do in this game.

So in short, do some theory crafting....experiment... and above all have fun.....thats what youre paying for right?

Good luck!
