Multiboxing 4x troopers - viable?

Yeah I don't see why OPS wouldn't be viable. The fights that have "go click this" type of mechanics might be a little bit tougher, but I would think that with two pre-set boxing groups with intelligent drivers it can be done. Hell people 1 man 25 boxed raids in wow

I have several teams of 4 level 50s in the swtor. My latest team is at 41 and is 3 vanguards and one commando. All can be DPS if desired and any vanguard can respec to tank. The commando is a good healer, but an awesome ranged DPS!

I 4 box weekly operations with one of my teams just fine. They all are DPS and my guild provides 2 healers and 2 tanks. I routinely do TFB story mode in this way.

I can solo most HM flashpoints which will get you geared in columi in no time. After that you are ready to do sorry mode ops to get Rakata.

Can you give some tips on your Commando dps? I just got to 50 on my Rep group and outfitted in Tionese gear, I can do some bosses in some of the HM's but definitely no where close to being able to clear any. Been doing dailies, to help gear up that way. I definitely can attribute some of my failures to just learning the fights and the game (versus what worked in WoW).

My commando is assault specced. I have it set so that the 18sec burn dot is always up. I automatically do full auto every 14 seconds and I have charged bolts go every 6 seconds or so. High impact bolt and stock strike have the highest priority and are always kept on cooldown. Don't know what else you need to know.

Thanks to all the tips from Riiker (plus I don't want to admit how much time tweaking my ISboxer dps setup) I've got my two Assault Troopers doing 820-850ish in Tionese gear pretty consistently against target dummies. I can't seem to get my Leave/Join ATG actions to work perfectly (have one for Incendiary and one for Full Auto), but I'm way happier with the dps of the Troopers now. Gonna go back and try to tackle some HM's this weekend!

Longshot - the commando is pretty tricky to set up due to the fact that it has to cast most of its abilities. I'm on vacation now but when I get back I might be able to put something together to illustrate how my commando is set up. You should be able to get the same DPS as you are getting with your vanguards.

Also, the first HM that I cleared was Taral V. Dulfy.net has a pretty good strategy for how to do this and I found her guides were spot on. It's really difficult in starter gear but once you gear up a bit it starts getting easier I promise! You also might want to consider augmenting your gear with reflex (aim) or overkill (power) augments.
