    Glad to help and for me it allows me to live though it somewhat vicariously as I just don't have time to level tons of characters... That and your 20box team is closer to what I was thinking of doing since as Alliance we don't have Shaman which makes multiboxing Warriors more difficult (don't like the idea of trying to heal tons of Warriors in melee range without Chain Heal).

    Be a little careful with my feedback as much of my input is just theory-crafting on how to flexibly do a 20box as Alliance...

    A couple additional thoughts/recommendations:

    - I agree you may be light on DPS so I would get a Warrior spec that allow your Warriors be strong tanks but also be good DPS and try to use the Prot pally 11/31/9 as a main tank unless the boss has Threat Wipes and/or needs Taunts. For the 2nd Tank spot try to use the Hybrid pally 21/13/17 and let the Warriors help with DPS. So for the ZG fight that had 4 bosses tanked separately I would likely try to kill targets in order of Warrior1, Warrior2, Hybrid, Prot and that way the Warriors can switch to max DPS weapons/stance on as the bosses go down. Through trial and error you may also find that your Warriors can not just swap to DPS weapons but maybe could swap a few pieces of tank armor for DPS armor. This may help with your lack of DPS a little and get more out of the Paladins as likely the 3 Priests, the Resto Druid, & the Holy Paladin are enough dedicated healing. If not focus the Hybrid Paladin more on healing and that could be the first target you kill (though he can be no-push-back healing regardless with Concentration Aura).

    -Buff-o-mat is great and due to some bugs in SmartBuff I switched to Buff-o-mat awhile back... It will likely handle almost all your buffs though I can't remember if I got it cast Fire_Shield reliably on my tanks or not. Regardless I already had a macro for that I used right before pulls (same button put on my Paladin: Imp_fire_shield+Priest_shield+regular_Sanctuary as he starts running to do pulls) and I use that even though I also have Buff-o-mat as I want those only only cast right before pulls. Also having your main tank Paladin put Greater Salvation on all Paladins (including himself and the Hybrid Paladin) allows him to go back and replace Greater Salvation with regular Sanctuary (for dual Sanctuary stacking Regular and Greater) and I am not sure if you can set that up in Buff-o-mat or not (it may keep trying to overwrite each other).

    -Playing ISboxer: You hit the nail on the head that in the end much of your success will depend on how well you setup ISboxer to handle groupings and scripting... You will need to be able to toggle (ideally on the fly from your main foreground client) which characters stay on their own targets and which ones join in on the main raid's focus fire DPS and likely script some things like rotations and rolling HoTs/etc. I remembered a video showing this when we were discussing 20boxing raids and the 4 boss fight so I did a search and found this thread for you which I would read in depth and watch the related videos multiple times:

    https://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/...-you-all-think

    I checked out the channel that had some of the videos and noticed that that 20boxer (ZooBoxing) recently totally redid his ISboxer setup so you likely should review the before/after setups for ideas.

    Best of luck and please both report back both progress and lessons learned.
