Has anyone tried multiboxing or dual-boxing this yet? im pondering adding a second account for a pocket healer/ranged person.

Tried it in Beta with two accounts. Pretty much impossible as there is no follow or targeting or pass-through targeting. Without follow or click to move you need to move each char individually.
Targeting is done by aiming so impossible to aim the second char.

About all you could do is move the second char and park and lay down buff/heals. Absolutely not worth it considering the amount of questing you will be doing as well.

First i wanted to say...first impressions are everything right? WRONG!! When i tried beta i "knew" i would not play this game live.. im not sure if the tutorial portion turned me off..or what it was.. but i thought the game was bad! Not sure why. Well, after reading some reviews and watching some videos.. i decided to give it a try. And im glad i did.. i was going stir crazy waiting for Wildstar ( which is the best MMO ever! IMO ) I'm having a damn good time playing ESO.. but i also wish i could box it! It will keep me very busy until WIldstar goes live.

The only thing I have thought about, that might be a good use of a second account is for trading crafted goods from one account to another. When you craft, you can extract rare crafting mats ( used to upgrade items in quality ), along with normal mats ( ie iron bars..etc.. ) by dismantling items you make..HOWEVER>> you get less mats/results from dismantling items YOU craft. I think that means any items crafted on your account. SO if you have two crafters, on separate accounts, you can trade items between accounts to maximize extraction.

Im not 100% sure about not being able to accomplish this with alts on a single account, but for ease of use, two accounts would be easier i think.
