HOWTO: Multibox SWTOR on one PC with ISBoxer!

[Altsoba]

After my beer buzz wore off...I figured this out.....

I also put follow on my "spam key"

[Kris1234]

I just hit my follow keybind when I was done. being ranged it wasnt as if I needed to hit it a million times after fighting everyone. a melee team however might be a different situation.

just the same in playing ranged in wow really, would have to break follow for ranged to stay back and atttack then put them on follow again after

If you two box would you be able to solo the heroic quest?

Yes. The flashpoints were very challenging with certain classes. Others were impossible.

really depends on your group make up. Last night i was using a Commando and Sage which both have decent CC, the Sage having the longer CCs, and both can heal. Sage also has a tank companion. I was able to do all of the heroics on Coruscant and then most of the ones i was able to get on Taris.

However, from what i hear the difficulty scales drastically after 25 in terms of the heroics, so im unsure 2 box + 2 companions can do it.

Also, current state of Flashpoints only Esseles which is the first flashpoint is truely dual box able with only 2 toons, as stated in the last patch notes Hammer Station had a lot of bugs and was overly difficult at 18 2 betas ago, and i wasnt able to get in there with a normal group to test it again. I do believe that most of the flashpoints will require 4 players rather than companions. So this is also food for thought if you wish to run your own flashpoints you might as well run 4 toons.

ROFL!! Dude I think that's the best excuse and solution I've read in a long time. Nicely done. Mind posting what you had wrong to help with others and creating some SOP instructions.

I made a keymap...step one target party member one...step two follow. I put the hotkey on one of my G13 buttons and set it to toggle once every second or so. So after I invite everyone to group....I hit the toggle button and viola..."Set it and forget it". It may not be pretty but with no macros...you gotta do what you gotta do.

If you're making the G13 toggle the button for you (without you hitting it), this is likely against the ToS. I'd advise against it.

[Themopolis]

Yeah... I'll take the toggle off and just press it after fights.

be nice to get an official response about the use of G Keyboards and macros.. There were a few threads discussing that in beta and never got an official reply. I think they know that sense they do not have macros, players will be using 3rd party ,methods to accomplish it.

How is this going to work with Origin? It doesn't appear that the beta client uses Origin to login. So come Live, how will we authenticate multiple accounts through a single Origin instance?

I'm trying to think how you would run two or more instances of Steam. Same issue, right?

[Crum1515]

They stated that you do not have to sign up for origin, download origin, or do anthing with origin to play the game you run the game through the launcher, which you can get from swtor.com
