Escort quests, not for boxers?

[Poolboy]

I currently use TwoBoxToolkit & Automaton addons for a few clone duties (duels/trade from non-friends denied, sell junk, auto-repair, etc etc)... I'm not sure which one it is off the top of my head that handles my clone's accepting quests but it works seamlessly.

Treat escort quests exactly as you would if you were not a boxer:

- Make sure ALL members of the party are at the same stage of the quest (i.e. ready to accept the escort quest).
- Just ONE of them accepts the escort quest.
- All the others get a "Muppet is starting <blerg> quest, do you want to join in" type message.
- All of them say "yep".

That's always going to work, boxer or not

I use:
/script AcceptGroup();
/script AcceptQuest();
/script AcceptTrade();
/script CompleteQuest();
/script GetQuestReward();
/script ConfirmAcceptQuest();

And never have a messed up escort, sorry.

I have an 'Accept' button with the first 3 script Accept lines from Electron's macro, but I follow Otlecs' method for escort quests, and I've never had a problem. Usually an escort quest involes turning in a quest (CompleteQuest()) at an escort, then accepting the next quest to escort them. I manually complete each quest with each alt first, then Accept the escort quest on my main. All alts will then be prompted to "join in escort quest - Yes/No", and I click 'Yes' for all 4. Do it quickly so the escort doesn't get too far by the time you click the 4th yes, and you shouldn't have a problem. Don't let your alts fall too far behind while escorting though - I had this happen during the robot chicken in Tanaris because I wasn't paying attention, and I had to redo it for the last 2 alts. Unfortunately, I didn't notice this until I got to Booty Bay, so yeah, I was pissed.

I just do it manually.

It couldn't be arsed writing or using a macro as it's so infrequently needed.

Since lvl1, I'd have done maybe 6? 7? such quests.

One talks, the other four get the popup, and 8 mouse clicks later we're happy trails...

There is one time I had really wished I had a better macro for accepting an escort.

In RFD, I cleared the path before starting the quest, accepted it and the pecker head RAN, not walked straight to the statue as I'm frantically clicking accept on my alts, I was delayed a bit because one didn't have room for another quest.

I had never seen an escort NPC run like this before.

I use TwoBoxToolKit and it works pretty well for accepting escort quests. My clones are set to "Auto Accept Quest" so as soon as my main takes the quest, I see the text "Escort Quest Accepted" pop up in my relay channel. It's a huge convenience for doing the Skettis escort quest, especially on a pvp server. So I can just fly in, talk to him, and have all my characters on the quest and ready to go.
