    Default And what about rogues ?

    I just found that link about dual-boxing,
    watched all screenies, and i'm really o_o

    By the way, I would like ask that question :

    Why they are not 2, 3, 4 or more Rogue boxing ?

    Is that hard to play multiple rogues at the same time ?
    I was thinking about 3 or 4 cheap shots...
    Or even 6 ambush...

    (Sorry i'm french and not that good in english :x)

    there're inherent problems with multiboxing melee classes with wow's interface

    Think about it, you'd get Rogue1 in range to ambush a mob/player, Rogue2/3/4 are behind him by the follow distance, you click ambush, you hit him with rogue1, but rogue2/3/4 get "out of range". D'oh

    and the mob would re-position itself mid-combat time after time after bloody time

  5. #5

    Default

    3 reasons:
    1) They're melee and thus cannot be positioned with /follow.
    2) Their main attacks are positionals (Ambush, Backstab.. all the tasty stuff) and thus impossible to use in PvE without a tank (which you'd then need to control, too).
    3) They're slow. Most other melee classes got pulls with low cooldowns that'll place the mobs where they need it, but while rogues can use ranged weapons that'd cost them their Ambush.

    Simply ill-suited for multiboxing. Only way to do it would be by stunlocking which would soon be blocked by trinkets and spells while leaving you wide open to any other attackers (5v1 it'd work well, but what wouldn't?).
