Foray into Multiboxing: Introduction


This post is more than a year old.
World of Warcraft is an ever-changing game. While reading this post, keep the date it was written in mind—changes may have occurred since then!

Being The Altoholic, I naturally have a lot of… well, alts. A few of them have made it to or close to the level cap, and a few of them are between 35 and 50. But, most of them are lower, many of them much lower.

Two classes I’ve always wanted to level but never really have are paladin and priest. I dearly want a pally tank, though a death knight tank could be cool as well, and I’ve always wanted to try a healer (just recently I took my druid resto, that’s my total sum of experience with healing) and maybe experience all this face melting everyone is talking about.

I’ve started a priest a few times, but never gotten one past level 10. I’ve also started a pally or five, and recently finally got one to around level 26. The pally, as many of you know, is absolutely painful to level (at least in many people’s opinion). The lack of things to do between auto attacks, especially in the lower level range, makes it a bit boring, and troublesome when fighting a lot of runners.

So this all got me to thinking: how could I make leveling these two classes less boring? I toyed with ideas back and forth, but nothing leapt out at me. Then, looking through my blue post tracker RSS feed, I saw yet another player complaining about multiboxers in PvP. Then it hit me: what if I leveled the pally and the priest at the same time?

Thus began my foray into multiboxing. Throughout this series of as-of-yet undetermined length, I will explore my experiences as a complete multiboxing noob, including tips, resources, and any thing else I personally find useful or interesting on the subject. Stay tuned!
