Mage/Paladin.. have questions.

[Dud]

I've purchased keyclone and have a 70 mage a paladin that I wasnt even thinking about teaming together, I was leveling to mages but I've kinda got the idea to hold aggro/heal with the paladin while im dpsing with my mage. But I dont know how I would set up my bars since keyclone mirrors keystoakes etc etc... Can anyone give me some simple insight so I can be boxing asap ?

Edit: I also have my paladin geared greatly in ret... would it be a good idea to just keep him ret and have the mage follow and frostbolt? :cursing: I dont know what I would like to do or what scenario would work best. Because I dont know how I would lay out the keys... since I played both chars solo and have every button taken up. Should I just clear the main action bar and set marcos aside on the other bars? And keys I want to click in both windows with keyclone?

Personally, I'd use something like Bongos.

That way you can setup your bar profiles for when you are and aren't boxing.

Read up on Keyclone keymaps, that'll give you a good idea of how to setup your binds according to what you feel comfortable with.

Great combo - the Paladin/Mage was my favorite for a 2-box. I was spec'd AoE-prot on the paladin and arcane/fire on the mage though - 12-20 enemies drop pretty fast. Read up on Paladin AoE grinding, then apply blizzard/flamestrike/arcane explosion to help grind them down.

I use Bongos2 and I love it. Since I'm broadcasting keys, I use SHIFT+# for paladin commands, F1-F12 for combo commands that both the paladin & shamen have macros for, and normal # keys for my shaman spells. My ALT+# and CTRL+# commands are usually a mix of paladin & shaman macros.
