Things got busy, and I set this aside for a couple weeks. Haven't yet set up my other accounts, but am hoping to do so in the next week or two.
At this point, I really just want to get some toons to level 100 so I can decide which one(s) I want to experience end-game PvE and PvP content with. Eventually, I may look into truly multiboxing my own team of 5. But for now, my goal is to play my level 100, and power level 4 additional accounts via RaF. I've also got two friends that might come back to WoW if I set them up with a level 90. I'll probably set them up with a few level 90s, in case they don't like a particular class. I want to play all 5 so that I don't compromise anyone else's dungeon experience with me trying (keyword: trying) to play multiple characters. And 4 additional copies of the base game was so cheap, why not have the extra accounts. Don't know yet whether I'll get WoD for them, that's definitely TBD once I get a couple level 90's on each.
I still haven't ruled out ISBoxer, but I'm hoping there's a free alternative if all I want to do is play my 100, while the additional 4 follow along. Don't really care that they do much at all, aside from pick up quests and follow and stay alive. Is ISBoxer still the best option for this, or would HKN work just fine, and be relatively easy to setup since I'm not trying to do anything advanced with the followers? I think Jamba will still be a really useful addon, even with such minimal requirements of the followers.
Some additional questions I'm wondering about (some of them WoW/RaF specific, not multiboxing):
1. Does HKN or any other free alternative offer the ability to customize video settings? Since I'll really only be playing my main, I want that on my primary monitor. I'd like to have the other 4 games showing in quadrants on my 2nd monitor. ISBoxer is probably the easiest way to set this up, but if there's a free solution that's just a little more work, I'd like to look into it.
2. What system specs would you recommend for multiboxing 5 accounts. I've been thinking about a new PC for awhile, and this might just be the impetus. What are the minimum settings I can run the 4 "non-primary" WoW instances on?
3. If I RaF all accounts from my main, do they still get the +300% XP bonus even though the main would be a level 100? Do I just need to make sure they stay within 100 yards of the main? The reason for referring in this manner is so I can grant all levels back to my main account. I may not need 4 accounts worth of level granting though, so I may do a hybrid main referral to 2 accounts, and daisy chain 2 secondary accounts off of those other 2 secondary accounts. Plus that gives my main account the most free game time, should I choose not to continue on with all of the additional accounts.
4. Is the X-53 Rocket the only multi-person flying mount? I'm assuming this would be a big benefit to have, which I can get by buying the extra game time. But if meeting stones work for summoning all party members (unclear on the specifics, as I've never used them) this might not be necessary at all.
5. From my understanding, I can't do LFD with 4 level 15s and a level 100 in a party. So will I need to physically travel to the entrance of the instances, and with how many of the characters [my thought is 2 (#s 1&2): 1 summons 3 who summons 5, and 2 summons 4]? How close in level must all party members be in order to do LFD? Can I use the meeting stone if I get there as a level 100 to summon the rest of the group? Does the meeting stone provide any benefits, or will the RaF summons work better?
