    Default Help a noob.

    Okay so i've just ordered some fresh memory sticks and goten my new cdkeys to start my 4 shaman team(already got one @70). Now I've read trough the guide to get started, and the FAQ, however I was wondering if I need to "install" more than one WoW, or would it be sufficent to just copy / paste my current wow directory x 4.

    That's what I did. Patching also requires a similar tactic - patch the main WoW, then copy the patched files to the other WoW directories.
    Ex-WoW 5-boxer.
    Currently playing:
    Akama [Empire of Orlando]
    Zandantilus - 85 Shaman, Teebow - 85 Paladin, Kodex - 85 Rogue.

    Definitely going to 4-box Diablo 3 after testing the beta for how well this would work.

    While you're at it, look up NTFS Junction points if you're running WinXP or Vista. That's the next step in making your system perform as well as possible.
    Now playing: WoW (Garona)

    you dont have to do it that way, just load all the wows up and let them all DL at the same time and patch at the same time, that way you can go afk for a few mins come back and it will be done.

    hello everyone
    ive read this site over for a few days now, and it looks very promising in terms of helpfulness and a friendly community, so i joined
    ill probably have questions in the future, because i plan to try multiboxing when i get back to the US, (and my computer) (im in Japan currently)
    im probably gonna go with octopus and 2-3 shaman, money is a deciding factor in this venture

    Actually, I play 5 clients out of one folder. It's by far the easiest to setup and get running on. No patch problems ever that way.
