Multiboxing Questions

[Xylumm]

Ahhh thanks I think I do have WoW-Modifiers enabled too... And thanks for all of that, but would you have any tips for Classes though? Not sure what to use, I was just running Arbiter, but they die so fast, maybe that's just how it is in early-game multiboxing pvp.

I would have 3 inquisitors, or 3 cabalists with Obliterate enabled and spam Bound Fate (the cabalists could be combined with Warden or Sentinel for healing). If Obliterate is too high for you, I'd stick with the 3 inquisitors (with a little bit of Sentinel for heals). Your main should have a second role for tanking Justicar (and any tanking gear you have). One of the others should have a full Sentinel healing spec, for the tricky encounters.

Also, so I don't forget it - if all your chars have Outfitter and you turn on FFA looting, your main will suddenly be looting a LOT more cloth. Having one character actually train up can be good for making bags for the team, the others can stay at skill level 1 and still make even high-level cloth be dropped a lot more. The main should have Outfitter, Mining, Foraging, so he gets everything needed on the minimal. Another char can have Butchering (use the /interact macro to let that guy skin after a kill).

For healing/cleansing, I use Shift+1-5 while mousing over dudes in the raid frame. The healing macro it triggers on the characters that on healing duty will use the @mouseoverui modifier. (Though at some point I think had them click instead, to fully select the dude, before casting the healing spell. It seemed more reliable for some reason...)

In addition, I also use the numeric keyboard for healing. Hitting 1-5 on these buttons will make the healers select my current main and heal him right away.

I put all my characters in an "Active Target Group". Then I have some buttons to cycle through them if I need to switch a character to the "Healers" ATG. All characters in the "Healers" ATG will respond to Shift+1-5 for mouseoverui healing, and numpad 1-5 for main heals. Characters in other ATG will keep doing what they're doing. Assisting and casting dps spells, for instance.
