1. Disclaimer
Sincerely apologize for my poor English and you may see some strange symbol which are Chinese in the screenshot.
Let me know if you have any problem reading this post and I will try my best to reply ASAP.
By reading this I assume:
a) You are familiar with demonbuddy setup
b) You are familiar with WD / static gear and bot setup, if not there's bunch of nice post around this forum.
c) You are awared that multi-team botting may damage your computer / increase the chance you getting banned by blizzard and you are doing this on your own stake.
2. Why team botting
a) You can run GR 70+ with static monk as Leader or 65+ with WD as Leader.
b) The exp gain is fat, like 150B/h and yes I've reach paragon level 1700 by doing so(Seasonal).
c) More gear, you can make followers drop gears to the leader = gear x 2~3
3. What do you need to prepare
a) 3~4 separate D3 accounts with level 70 monk/WD/Barbarian/Crusader and geared as below.
b) 3~4 valid demonbuddy cdkeys and copies
c) simplefollow plugins
d) 3~4 separate diablo 3 copies therefore you may need up to 60GB free disk space
e) A very nice computer with up to 16GB memory and good CPU/GPU(i7+GT970 plus or equivalent strongly suggested)
f) Yar relogger
4. The team set up and strategy
The key to fast and effective team botting is setup, after over 2months' study into this I've developed as below:
a) The leader should be the only dps in the team, which is static monk / Acid Cloud WD. Monk provide with higher GR level but you are stuck with 4man team. WD provide with much more flexible team setup and much more stability while running unmaned. I'll strongly recommand WD team for beginner for it's much easier to setup and start
b) Follower should be: Healing monk / Cond Crusader / WW Bar, who are totally survivability and exp oriented geared. The follower is not here to provide any damage but to provide huge survivability/damage buff/exp bonus.
5. How to make the follower to follow tight
If you have any team botting experience before you will ask the same question as I did months ago:
How the f**k to make these stupid follower to follow the leader constantly rather than roaming around and get stuck in the middle of nowhere?
Luckily there're solution:
a) Make sure all followers are equipped (or in Kanai cube)with illusionary boots(Or I spell it wrong, but well it's the bounty reward boots which make you can pass through anything) and the shoulder which makes you indisturbable while casting town portal.
b) Use my version of simple-follow. I've changed a few codes in order to turn off the combat whenever follower is more than 10 yards away from leader.
c) By applying a) and b) you will find now even with static monk as leader flying around like a stupid fly the follower WILL NOT lose their track.
6. About gems
Yes, if you have team botted you will also ask why the hell:
Our follower is not upgrading their fu**ing gems and the whole team get stuck after GR run?
Luckily I've figured it out as well:
a) Fact 1: for some reason the simple-follow will copy leader's Quest Tool gem upgrading chance setup to followers. Sounds tricky? No it's quite straight-forward: the gem upgrading of follower is controlled by their QT, and their QT upgrading chance is controlled by Leader's QT setup. You need to setup Leader's QT minimum upgrading chance to 1%(VERY IMPORTANT, and yes you can set it to 100% or any other numbers comfortable and all followers will adapt to the same chance rate), and you don't have to load QT for Leader.
b) Fact 2: There's something wrong with current QT version that it cannot correctly handle gems whose max level are 50(trying to upgrade them while they are already 50 and get stuck). I've fixed this issue and you need to USE MY VERSION of QT (attached)
7. Trinity / Build Setup
VERY IMPORTANT: follower trinity setup
We wanna our follower follow tight so we will greatly reduce their trigger range, therefore they will go nowhere but follow the leader.
though it's in Chinese but I bet you can figured it out.
8. Run with relogger
a) Followers should start first, the leader should run as last one
b) Leader load anything you want to bot with, even bounty quest / hellfire key run. However I would strongly suggest to run with adventurer profiles.
c) Followers should load simplefollow_relogger.xml
9. How to Install
a)Leaders I'm using DB 436, remove your \plugin folder and replace with mine in the zip
b)Follower I'm using DB 433, remove your \plugin folder and replace with mine in the zip
c)If you don't have DB 436/433, just replace your \plugin\simplefollow \plugin\questtools folder with mine respectively. I haven't test on other version of DB so I'm not sure if it will work.

10. Which GR level should I run?
It depends on your purpose
a) Bot with static monk with GR 68+~70 like this, so you can upgrade your gem up to 85. But it's not quite stable
b) Bot with WD with GR 62~65, I would suggest 62~64 for you will never die and experience pool bonus will up forever. Remember that each GR level increase 8% exp gain along with 15% more Monster HP . Do the math you will find that the highest GR level that you have 0 death rate is your best choice.
