New To Multiboxing - Some Questions About Setup

[WOWBOX40]

When i first started, i used a couple hours every afternoon, watching the various video guides, reading the isboxer wiki pages and took a metric ton of notes and THEN spent even more time each afternoon to learn, tweak and finetuned my isboxer profile, keybinds, addons, addonsettings etc. Id say it took me around 3 months to become pretty good at everything (note, i had not invested time getting to know the vfx system at that stage).

And i still was learning new stuff all the time after that. And my mind still gets blown over everything thats possible.

What you are asking for is basically help to reach the pinnacle of 5man multiboxing. Very few has reached / bothered to make that long effort. As you might imagine, various bosses etc could require a spesific custom solution to overcome. The macro capasity ingame is tiny, so you will have to use isboxer to store the custom macros.

Remember, you have to play the tank, healer and 3 dps at the same time. And with that comes the need of knowing basically every faset of any given encounter, in order to overcome it, at higher difficulties. We are talking split seconds decision making when it comes to interupts, clensing, decursing, stacking up, spreading out, individual character movements etc etc.

I could write a book about the journey, but its one best learned by trial and error yourself.

Sure, you can get started by getting some minor but really helpfull starting tips, by someone, but prepare for that this is a playstyle that takes time to learn.

Id suggest that you start with setting up your team and just start playing the game. If you decide to boost toons to lvl 120, you could find the wowhead bfa starter guide and go from there: questing thru the bfa content is quite enjoyable.

You will also spend a lot of time at the training dummies, finetuning your keybinds, macros, various settings etc.

Is handy when creating new teams.
If you plan to do serious 5mans, you need to have available spells like cleanse, decurse etcetc.
