Quick Question.

I loved multiboxing wow. Will probably continue multiboxing wow (working on my first 10-man team).

However, my brother (who barely plays games at all) is playing SWTOR - his first MMO & Video game.., which means I'll have to at least single box this game. With Companions in this game being a big deal - I imagine until level 50 I don't need to multibox at all no will we have to group with random players?

Aside from the "love" of multiboxing - is there any clear benefits to multiboxing in this game PVE wise? Crafting? Getting Gear? etc? Not even sure if benefits is the right word... just can't think of a better one lol.

In WoW it seemed like a natural progression after single boxing for years... but for some reason going from 5 to 4 makes me thing grouping will be that much easier... not sure if there were other features that would benefit/hurt from boxing. (For instance, I remember Star Wars Galaxies had space combat, which I don't think was boxable?).

I can't imagine doing Raid Boxing at all atm (I am just now touching the surface of that in WoW - which has a much stronger toolset to do so and the difficulty curve gets higher).

Not sure if I am making sense, but I get the feeling that this is one of the fewer MMO's that single boxing and dual boxing might not be as big of a difference as other mmos, but I really haven't kept up with this game at all. Right now I'm only playing due to cross-country Brotherly Bonding!

I guess secretly, I want to be convinced.

Thanks for any advice and thoughts - this community is always very insightful!
