Help a noob? (Mage / Rogue)

[BranCarr23]

Hello all! I've looked around and I've seen some very amazing things. Hopefully my request will be a bit easier. I want to level my mage and a rogue on a separate account. The main will be my mage. The rogue really doesn't have to do anything, if it's too complicated. I just want the rogue to follow my mage. and accept / complete the same quests as me. Maybe even sinister strike the same target as my mage?

I have two computers, but can do it on one computer, which ever is easier.

Thanks!

mage and rogue? hmph. and the rogue is following?

if you want the rogue.. how about rogue as main and priest on follow?

Have you started the characters yet? If so, what level are the two? If they're the same level (or close) I would highly recommend using your mage as assisting DPS while "driving" with your main. Rogues put out a ton of DPS and can, in some situations, greatly assist with crowd control.

i really dont understand your thread... u want a rogue to follow your mage and the rogue does not have to do anything ? :huh:
if i was you i would never box a melee class to begin with! ínstead maybe try 2 mages and get some skills and when u get the hang of it,
throw in the rogue you want so bad

Thanks for the fast replies! I';m only doing this because I want a 70 mage and rogue. This is just to speed up the process of doing both separately. They are both 29. Maybe I should just AOE grind exp with the rogue in my group? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Quests, quests and more quests. Lead with rogue. CC, AoE and assist DPS with the mage. IMO.

For details on setups, the wiki and stickies are your friends. Bottom line, though: there's nothing like experience to teach you how to multibox. Once you figure out what you want to do, it's just a matter of making sense of the mechanics of key broadcasting. After that, the rest is mostly just becoming more efficient and distilling things down to a few heavily-used macros that trim unneeded micromanagement from your setup.

[edit] Crippling poison + fireball spam = dead stuff. Good luck with it!

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure having the mage kill everything, and the rogue do absolutely nothing will just slow down your leveling in a huge way.. You should make the rogue the main, and have the mage be the slave.. And use them both to kill, it will be a lot faster.

Ok, cool. I've never done this before, can someone point me to the right sticky's to read?
