Great read, man. I am also new to multiboxing and started off with the same exact team (1 pally, 1 priest, 3 mages). I am playing the horde side, however - all Blood Elves.

It seems like we both ran into the same hurdles. The target latency thing is kind of a pain, but I've gotten used to it now. Also, with consecration I've been able to just avoid sheeping for the most part unless my level is too low for the instance.

My team is now up to level 21 and I have successfully cleared the following instances: RFC, WC, Deadmines, SFK.

The only challenge I've run into so far was Arugal... he owned me about 4 times my first attempt and I just gave up as respawns were starting. I went back the next day, however and tried a different strategy. I downed him, but even then he took out 2 of my mages and almost my priest.

Anyways, great post. I'm looking forward to hearing more about your adventures
