Ok so I was wondering if someone was interested in helping me how to setup and understand dualboxing I have Jamba and hotkeynet etc. But I still don't understand how to use it properly and it's killing me I wanna learn to how use this so bad.

If anyone can help I have teamviewer, ventrilo server, skype and msn.

Im very interested in learning as honorbuddy cannot do anything which I understand 100% but I wish to use my dads RAF as he does not play alot and I don't wanna bot his account as it is risky.
 
If you're going the non-botting way you should check out Dual-Boxing.com - Multiboxing
Bots aren't allowed there, but you'll learn a lot about multiboxing.

If you're going to bot one of the accounts I'd setup like this:
- play your dad's account by hand, setting him as leader in Jamba
- for your account you could use lazyraider and make it follow (partybot won't work I think because it would need leader plugin enabled on your dad's account)
- setup Jamba to auto share and accept quests

Now for the bindings it's a little more complicated (considering you're using hotkeynet). I've never used hotkeynet, but the basics should be the same.
- unbind all movement keys on the follower account that you use on the leader account
- make a macro to assist the leader and bind it to a key (you can use this to target the same npc as the main while turning in quests and to assist in combat)
- in keybinding bind 'interact with target', this you use to talk to questgiver after targetting npcs (on main and follower)
- you can set up jamba to select the same questreward as the main, but if you're playing different classes you might want to just select manually on both

If lazyraider doesn't automatically attack as well make sure to bind one of your attack spells on the follower to the same key you're using to pull with as the main, to make sure combat is initiated on the bot and the cc takes over.

These are the basics and should get you started.
 
Why would I pay to send keystrokes? Also that's more then honorbuddy ur crazy.

yeah i was hopeing someone could set me up with defaults and explain why it's that way. I want to get it setup correctly so it will assist/attack and I could heal on my dads account by hand but how I would be doing so I don't understand.

It is by far easier to manually PLAY the tank/leader and have the healer/dps as slaves/bots.
 
I have RAF'ed more times then I can count.
it is very easy to keep up the gear needed.

You can go around with whatever shit you find on the road up until SM.
Then you just run SM like crazy between 27>40 and u get all tanking you ever need.
 
I wish it was that easy but it is not, RAF and tanking does not mix and you add a healing bot behind with that? That just sounds horrid.
 
Look.

You wanted help with multiboxing. Multiboxing is what I do and have been doing since vanilla.
Even in our guildraids nowadays I seldom play only 1 char .
I have done every single instance in this game atleast 20 times with one of my own 5man teams.
When I type this I am running HC's with tank/healer and let randoms fill the DPS spots.

You can either listen to the advice from ppl who knows wtf they are doing or you can ignore it.
The easiest way to multibox with a bot (not legal) is if you are tanking urself and bot a healer (i would suggest a shaman since ShamWow is the best CC - hands down).

It is ALWAYS easier to play the tank, unless you run for example 4x hunters and 1 healer (damn funny), then you can play the healer. But I do not recomend that as your first try.

I'm just wanting to learn how to dualbox 2 characters one "healer" or "tank" for dungeons. One is the main the other is too follow and attack/assist main tank
 
Then i suggest you play a Prot-paladin (if you can choose classes freely) and bot a Shaman.
The shaman should use either Multibox Follower or LazyRaider, and the ShamWoW as CC.
The reason to the paladin is that he is easy as fark to lvl and you can do some interesting AE pulls.
But of course you can choose whatever classes you like, I am just saying that the ProtPally/RestoShaman combo is the easiest way to "multibox" using honorbuddy.
You can of course run as elemental shaman as well instead of Resto but you will notice that if you control both the tank and healer you will:

1. have insta-ques
2. you can control the instance, even if you have idiots as DPS you can still manage most encounters by yourself.

As a general rule, it is always easier to have range classes as the slaves/bot and a tank as the leader.


You setup Jamba as noted earlier in this thread to have your paladin as leader.


Edit: It can also be stupidly fun to multibox 2-4x hunters.

I'm wanting to level a paladin but yeah, I would need help with setting it up thats my issue currently.
 
if you wanna Raf in dungeons you must wait for IB2 aka DungeonBuddy release
 
isBoxer is the best affordable multiboxing software I have found. Cheap, works great and does fantastic.

I wouldn't exactly call isBoxer cheap at $50 for 1 year and it's overkill for his needs.

isBoxer is cheap for what you get (Multiple game support, client support etc) with basically NO setup needed. It is PERFECT for someone with 0 boxing experience.
I own both pwnboxer and isBoxer also, isBoxer was much more noob friendly.
ofc this is just an opinion of a satisfied customer. as I use it myself.

I tried ISBoxer for a little while, purchased 3 months and never really used it.

Just found a *****ed version of Pwnboxer at it works great.
