Ok, I will speak specificaly of my experience. After watching 4 shaman melt faces on you tube i said "i want that !". I came into this (Multiboxing) thing thinking well i can get 3 accounts and boom bang a little AHK ( auto hotkey ) mabey some Keyclone and i'm in the game... after about 5 hours of research and starting new accounts I realized hmm, this is a bit tricky.

:evil: (MYTH): you can just slap down some software and be off to the races lvling and grinding and so fourth. I was seriously discouraged by how complicated it was to get everything to jive. it seemed ahk was light level programming keyclone was a rubics cube and my characters were destined to sit dormant or worse run off in all directions un-impeeded. this will all happen to you. sorry to say

:evil: (MYTH) you will be able to us eyour old play style seamlessly. I believed i could use the arrow keys and click click my way to destruction i was sadly mistaken... I would venture to guess that this is a more extreme re-learning than most people go through as most use mouse for movement and keys for attacks / heals. it has taken time but i am getting better.

:evil: (MYTH) all your characters will move in unison and fight in unison. to some degree they will but your secondary characters will always be on follow NOT directly on top of each other, and due to internet, computer, and even software latency they will not cast in unison ( but should be close) .. :thumbup:

Having stated all that, i can honestly say that being able to invest the time and mental energy into duel / multi boxing is far worth the return being able to accomplish things that groups of 5 other people or more cannot is extremly rewarding. Not to mention all the whispers about how awesome that is.

Final note the members and moderators of this site are the single most helpful resource on achieving your goal of massive solo destruction. and plz do not be discouraged i have written this because if i had read this post at the onset i would have had many less head aches :!: "and i shall flow a river fourth to thee and teaming with souls shall it ever be....."
