A source close to me says 2 players will be able to duo flashpoints. He thinks that aside from maybe one of the trooper/BH advanced classes 4 characters will not be very optimal in more difficult content.Originally Posted by Kro

Hi! I have few questions multiboxed related!
Is a follow command ingame?
Is a -> assist command ingame?
You can see target of target?
In a flashpoint, dou you think that 2 people with 2 companions (and 1 companion as a healer) can make it?
Thanks!
First of all, don't waste your time. TOR is very un-multi-box friendly.
1. there is a follow keybind
2. there is NO assist
3. there is NO target of target frame
4. not in the current build. They buffed the flashpoints.
bonus: there are no macros in the game, so it would be almost impossible to automate anything you want to do.
What do you think, people¿
From my understanding, companions are far more beefy than typical pets.
I feel like for ease of use, 2 boxing will be the best setup until a macro system emerges.
With what we know about the game setup.
You can setup a very simple assist system in isboxer.
Two step macro.
Target party 1 on down.
Target of Target on up.
Follow macro.
Target party 1 on down.
Follow on up.
With only two characters there is no worrying about character slots. The other guy will always be the same slot ;p
Also, running a pure team like Inquisitors or Mercenaries, if you run with 3 as opposed to 4, you get a companion tank to run with. Seems to me if your goal is to complete as much content as possible, 2 or 3 will work as well as 4.
Two copies of TOR and two subscriptions with the ability to do everything four can do seems like the bargain way to go, in addition you will get the full single player experience using companions!
