New Multibox LF feedback (4Lock/1Priest SMGY)

[southeastbeast]

What’s the spec guide for this while leveling?

Apatheist from what you mentioned

you have setup a way for the diffrent slaves to attack diffrently market targets(raid marks skull star etc)

is there any video showcasing how to do such a setup

You can't target raid markers. I use raid markers as a visual reminder which mob each voidwalker is attacking. This is useful because I also have individual assist keys set up for each warlock so I can choose to switch a particular pet that isn't currently tanking a boss or some mob with an AoE that I don't want to move closer to my stack, for example.

Similar to round robin but using one keymap with 4 steps. Each step sends FTL assist, petattack and a raid mark to one of my warlocks.

Even if your pets aren't tanking it's useful to be able to individually send a voidwalker to pull 4 different packs and then /petfollow to pull them all back to your hellfire stack.

I also created two action target groups for petfollow and petattack. Then I set the pet follow/attack macros to send to those groups. When I spam my DPS keymaps my pets will automatically either assist or follow me depending on which target action group they're in at the time. This way I only have to assign pet targets and not worry about pets not attacking or running off to agro stuff I don't want to.

You can use your hotkeys for more than one function, too. For example, my "join petfollow group" keymap also casts devour magic on my friendly mouseover target and my "join petattack" keymap casts devour magic or seduction on my target. Kind of made sense to me to put the offensive stuff on the pet attack bind and the defensive stuff on petfollow. Assigning multiple actions to the same keypress depending which pet is active saves a lot of keybinds.

Would you mind explaining how you've set this up in the keymap? I'm guessing you've got it set so that it wont advance to the next step for x-amount of seconds, but im not sure so I just want to make sure. Cheers

Just 4 steps, no wait time. If you add a wait time it delays how quickly you can send your voidwalkers to pick up a target.

Just 4 steps in one keymap and each step sends assist, marks the target and sends voidwalker attack macro to warlock B. Step two assists, uses a different mark on the target, sends pet attack macro to warlock C and so on.

I was afflic early on, but at mid-30s I've swapped to demo and void threat is so much better now.

[Madsage]

I would advise going straight into demo tree for Improved Voidwalker so they can tank dungeon mobs, since threat is your main issue, not damage. After that take Improved Corruption, 2 points in Suppression and start working towards your Soul Link.

[Apatheist]

I went 8 into demo for improved voidwalker and then all into affliction until 40. Then I'll respect for soul link. Affliction offers more in the intermediate levels.

Also, I recommend farming BRD for https://classic.wowhead.com/item=222...-eternal-light

There are mobs in Scholomance (that you'll be farming a LOT as a warlock comp) that are immune to all magic types except holy. This wand is the only wand in the game that does holy damage and, combined with the physical damage from your warlocks, will help you kill them.

I just started a new 4x lock 1x Priest team to play on when I get tired of a grind session on my main team and they need rested xp, and so far I am absolutely loving it!
I mean I am blown away at how much and how fast you can clear with 4 locks, all going ham with their voidwalkers. I am only lvl 13 but I have started alot of team comps since the launch of classic, but this is by far the fastest leveling experience I have had! It dosent matter if the mobs er 1, 2 or even 3 levels above me I just dot up and send the pets to tank and the rest is history.

I have a simple /petattack and /castsequence macro in 1 button on all locks that sends in the pet -> Casts CoA -> Casts Corruption. So basicly I just run into a camp of mobs, target each mob and mash the same button and bam everything is dead. The VW have no issue holding or taking aggro so far and I am planning on getting imp voidwalker talent as the first and then imp corruption.

I know it probably will be alot harder once I get into dungeons but before I do I will be setting up the raid marker macros to make micro'ing my pets far easier for tanking.

@Apatheist
Will have to do some testing, but am I wrong in assuming that with the raid markers setup in ISboxer, you still have to swap to each warlock window and first manually target their target mob before swapping back and hitting the key map?

Wouldn't it just be more beneficial to have 4 macros setup (1 for each warlock) that you then place on 1-4 on their hotbar? Let me explain my theory:

1. Make a macro on each warlock that simply sets a unique raid marker
2. Make sure that hotkeys 1-4 also does an initial assist the leader in ISboxer
3.
Warlock A: puts his macro in the hotbar with hotkey 1.
Warlock B: puts his macro in the hotbar with hotkey 2.
Warlock C: puts his macro in the hotbar with hotkey 3.
Warlock D: puts his macro in the hotbar with hotkey 4.

Then all you need to do with a pack is, be on your main (priest in my setup) and target a mob, then press the corrosponding hotkey that you want that warlocks pet to tank? All of this ofcourse, assumes that the "FTL -> set raid marker macro" hotkeys actually targets the mob when it executes. But if it does then its as simple as targeting 4 mobs with your main, press 4 hotkeys and then press a single /petattack macro for all warlocks?

I haven't tested any of this yet so feedback is more than welcome!

Keymaps work from any client so there's no need to tab.

The purpose of creating 4 steps within my pet targeting keymap is that each step sends assist to a different warlock. 4 Steps, 4 warlocks.

You could achieve the same thing by just ticking "round robin" but having a unique step for each warlock allows you to attach other functions to it like assigning a particular raid mark, cycling seduce or devour magic, etc.

Yes but how do you make each warlock target a different target initially with 1 button on your main without swapping windows and doing it manually?
