Change in multiboxing policy

[macrossru]

The question remains is if they will allow to use isboxer to set windows and ema to use mount with leader and strobe follow (ema is not that important). With windows set up it is still easy to have 4 chars to follow and manually hit all the nodes. This will not stop herb/mining boxers, just make it a little more work.

People that lose are those that are playing dungeons, which sucks.

I have requested refund on 4 of my shadowlands purchases and 2 months remaining game time on those accounts.

Instead of taking everything away from us. Why don't they just add a server or make existing server for just multiboxers. ? And let us transfer there. Instead of shutting us down like that after so much time invested

Exactly what me and my friend was thinking.
I hope such a request/question reaches them before i have cleaned out all my char's...
Would like to know what their respons is to that.

Well, they actually want to do the opposite, to have one server type for everyone.. except rp probably. Also, if they start with special realms for special target groups, others would want that too. Hardcore realms. Solo realms. Gnome-only realms..

I enjoyed classic a lot. I have 10 box acc on classic that just got renewed and thinking to create new team on low pop server and see how long it takes to get banned. I know it's a waste of time but whatever.

Multibox is not over. Blizzard dont want "broadcasting software to mirror commands to multiple accounts". If you use round robin you dont mirror commands. If you attribut one key per box you dont miror. For instance you can use clic bar for healing. This is not morroring etc...

That's not going to work, you are going to now receive so much more hate and reports than ever in game, the automated ban system will ban you and its down to luck if you get the accounts back from the jobworth who gets your support ticket.

Multiboxing in Wow is pretty much dead.

i dont think that loophole is going to last xD

i guess we just have to accept the fate that there wont be another tbc for us

i always found that arena boxing had quite some potential in many expansions which I'd like to have explored further, quite an irony to lose the entire playstyle to the goldfarming/herb abusing retards as they are

Round-robin is just skirting around what it is they are trying to accomplish by this new policy in the first place. Fighting bots.
A computer program can EASILY round-robin multiple key-strokes in the same time it would take you to press a single key, even faster actually. So a round-robin workaround will just get actioned immediately. You're only option so far as I can tell, is hardware multiboxing, and all the limitations that come with it. You will just get banned once Blizzard starts to action accounts for boxing software, and you'll have an uphill battle explaining your position and hoping they will even listen. Good luck, but I don't recommend you try and find out if you still want to keep your account(s). If you don't care about them, feel free to give it a go and let us know lol.

Just, this: The use of input broadcasting software that mirrors keystrokes to multiple WoW game clients will soon be considered an actionable offense

It's not only the broadcast that is not allowed, it is the software that they will start to monitor and ban at sight. Isboxer/AHK and others are done for WoW and I would not recommend you use it, even for windows settings and stuff.

Same if you go with hardware setup, just as CokeZero mentioned, you are just awaiting until the day you will get reported, they will suspend yours accounts and then you will discuss, when they will be available. What's the difference between a software they cannot identify server side and a hardware setup ? None in fact, they will just follow you for 10 mins, and if you have a multiboxing behavior, banhammer. Done.
