So, after the policy change, go back to DualBox without broadcasting, any idea of 2man comp ?

I think doing any kind of boxing in any PVP environment is just asking to get banned.

Personally going forward, if I continue multiboxing, I will only have my characters together in instances with the exception of maybe having a level 20+ Warlock summoner+2 low level alts helping me bring my characters (1 at a time) somewhere (or any warlock(s) in my party doing something similar).

Regarding duos a well geared Paladin+Shaman may be the most successful Hybrid duo in farming instance related content. I like the idea of being able to pop a Guardian totem and have 2 mechanisms for wipe protection (Paladin self sacrifice and Shaman self reincarnation) and both being rezzers helps.

That being said I think Druid+Druid is the most flexible Duo as both characters can speced do 4 roles (Tank, Melee DPS, Ranged DPS, & Healer though not well at the same time) and regardless of spec can do stealth which may actually help considering all the hate there is out there and how reporting from other players may factor into the process.

If you do go Druid+Druid you can from a single spec be able to be a Decent Tank, Melee DPS, & off/emergency Heals (if you spec Nurturing Instincts) and if you get just 2 pieces of Tier 5 you can instant cast Regrowth when power shifting/regular shifting to help. Druid+Druid (not boxed) is actually what I think I am going to try to get my brother and I to focus on for TBC as it opens up more/better options from just 2 characters...

Speaking (er typing) of Druids, the following has a good breakdown of Druid feral talents and the various spec options (being PVP/PVE/both and across the spectrum of pure Bear Tank to pure Cat DPS and anywhere in between):

I did the above research and analysis for my brother and I and figured sharing it may help you and/or others considering Druids...

Well, i don't think anyone could tell that i control both character actually, they will just think i don't play very well.
If i can and find a group, i'm gonna test my theory while leveling in low level instance with some random people.

I leveled a team of 5 druids in classic as feral, it was a LOT of fun, but the dps was kinda low, and powershifting is a hell to do while boxing.
I don't know if that change with TBC.

Yeah I think it will be difficult to do well. You could maybe Tank with the Bear Druid and dump all Rage and then switch to the cat client and dump all energy and then power-shift-with-instant-regrowth on the Bear and then go back to the bear to dump rage (rinse-repeat)...

That or just run normally a single cat with the other druid in tow periodically thowing HoTs... If running Predatory Intincts the cat gets +20% heals and if the incoming damage is too high the cat can shift to Bear...

Likely not going to be super great but if you can skip much of the content and get ore/herbs and go straight to bosses it may be OK.
