How are they doing this?

Taken from the WoW EU forum:

"Blizzard is NOT going to ban windows 10 functions … You do not need to /follow. Thats not how I got my long boi. I did not send my characters to same dungeon all together. They were in different instances. And I did not use a ‘3rd party software’ for it"

"Windows 10 allows you to do what Blizzard just said you cannot, but its one of the core functions in 10 - ability to send keystrokes to several apps at once. I mean … just tell windows to repeat keystroke later and its like 2 players."

The examples of his multiboxing seem to suggest he would just put his characters in a fresh instance/raid and then control them all at once. If he is using just windows 10 features i'd imagine the client stacking would be done with the 'virtual desktop', or the built in Snap feature (FancyZones maybe?).

With his key broadcasting? I have no clue what he is on about. He mentions playing in real time then talks about just adding a delay in the repeater.

There is some delay when you hover over another window, but maybe someone is able to get rid of this.

or make a G-key with alt+esc to scrolling to next wow client - if you have a keyboard with G-keys

Just tried this and this is insanely good for stand-still farming, which i don't do lol.
When you stop spamming the g-key, it's hard to find your mouse and it takes a while before you get your bearings again, so not ideal for moving around a lot

not a big problem - with mouse auto forcus turned on - have the mouse outside the windows it stay there

been working out possibles ways to do hardware boxing and one of the simplest ways i have tested is running my 3 dps on their own computer in windowed mode. then having a macro keypad on that computer with macros/scrips saved on the keypad itself, no software needed to run.
running a macro like this gets all the dps to hit 5 where i have a gse keybind for their full rotation.
5 Alt+Esc 5 Alt+Esc 5
running separate computers for tank and healer with imput director. have yet to get a warning.

@Nokk - what keypad do you have that is saving its macros to the pad itself? I had sorta though my Razer Tartarus did that, but apparently its only the profile that's stored locally, all the macros are stored in software on the PC (razer central)

Rotating through the DPS like that works via Alt-Est since only the DPS are on that computer... Gets much more problematic if you mix the Tank or Healer on the same PC.

I think this is the first time I have seen someone recommended grouping the DPS on their own PC/VM. Pretty ingenious.
