10 Boxing WoW – Feedback Requested!

Tim — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 23:30:13 +0000

I am thinking about 10 boxing again. The last time I did this was when WOTLK first came out, and I rolled 10x Shaman, or 9x Shaman 1x Resto Druid.

Firstly, as you guys probably know, I love leveling a new team. In fact, it is probably my favorite thing to do in WoW overall. Running old school instances just reinvigorates the feeling of why I fell in love with this game.

So I am thinking of doing a 10x box team with a focus around AV and that 25 man BG that I always forget the name of (Strand of the Ancients?). I’ve loved AV for nearly forever and I was thinking that maybe rolling a 10x team would be fun times.

So here are my thoughts:

I’m thinking of a 10x team where I can have a couple of one-button setups. For example, 1 button where my team does:

Point blank AOE DPS
Targetted Range DPS
Mass AOE heals

And then a 1 button where I can have a few in my team AOE heal while the rest of the team PBAoE as well as Targetted ranged DPS.

So what classes would you think I should go? Let’s theorycraft a bit for this 10 man team in this forum thread!

Here are 4 videos freshly put on Youtube of the 5x Shamans multiboxed together with 3 being controlled by Tim, and 2 being controlled by Kevin (Chamassa).

Tim starts streaming again!

Tim — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 23:08:20 +0000

Hey all,

Just a quick note that I am going to be streaming some new teams with a new project goal: Lots of multiboxed characters! The stream will be starting TONIGHT @ 7pm CST (or earlier)!

This new team will be focused around a new concept I like to call multi-multiboxing. 2 people, multiboxing together, forming the 5 man group. With that said, I’d like to introduce Kevin aka Chamassa as we begin 2 new multiboxing teams.

5x Shaman (3x Tim, 2x Kevin)
3x Hunter (Tim) 2x Druid (Kevin)

We will be leveling these teams from 1 to 85, doing instances, BG LFDs, BG run-tos, questing, everything.

Tune in! http://justin.tv/multiboxing

More information such as schedules coming soon!

NOTE: All 5 characters are fully RAF’d, for 300% XP from 1 to 80!

Multiboxing Dire Maul Gordok Compound

Tim — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 10:58:43 +0000

Here is the final leg of the Dire Maul instance journey, Gordok Compound. As with the other recent videos done by Tim, this was features the 3x Hunter group, which really is tearing it up quiet nice.

Enjoy the video!

Multiboxing Alterac Valley: Level 46 3x Hunters

Tim — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 02:42:30 +0000

We crushed this battleground, big time, so much so that we were at the very top of the charts at the end of this BG. We had a TON of fun. I’ve learned that being a heavy ranged class has enormous benefits, especially realized when you are hanging behind a wall of teammates who are tanking the damage for you.

WoW Multiboxing Eye of the Storm Level 46 on 3x BM Hunters

Tim — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 17:38:15 +0000

Here is another PVP video of multiboxing 3x Hunters. We obliterated this battleground pretty hard core. One of the major pros to doing this BG was that the action was always really close to where your spawn point is at. You never really had to run far before being able to punt some more Alliance Gnomes.

Multiboxing Instance: Razorfen Downs

Tim — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 17:34:56 +0000

At level 42 we did Razorfen Downs (RFD) on the 3x Beastmastery Hunters. We obliterated this really well. One of the most fun parts of this instance was being able to do very large elite mob pulls, often doing 3+ groups at once. The gear drops for hunters was pretty good.

Enjoy the high-def video!

Video (47 minutes) of Multiboxing Scholomance Instance @ Level 41 3x Hunters

Tim — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 02:15:34 +0000

This video is of the 3x Hunter multiboxing team of Tims and we used the LFD system to que and ended up in Scholomance.

The hunters are 41, BM spec, and have 3 dps/pvp pets (wolf, fox, dog) and 3 tank pets (bears). We tore through this place pretty hard core. The only big difficulty was on those undead mobs who, upon death, get back up and start walking towards you and then explode. All in all, the instance was a breeze. Enjoy the 1080/720/480 video!

Video Multiboxing Cataclysm Dire Maul Capital Gardens 3x Hunters

Tim — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 01:49:06 +0000

This instance we did Dire Maul – Capital Gardens on our 3x Hunters. Today we decided to go the BM spec route and holy crap, we pwned the hell out of this place. My favorite part is how we dinged at the end. Also, thanks to the live JTV chat to helping me with a little direction on where to go. It has been a long time since I ran DM. Enjoy the video!

Multiboxing BG – Arathi Basin 3x Hunters Level 46

Tim — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 15:40:44 +0000

The 3x Hunter team by Tim is back! This time we played around on the 3x Hunters with Arathi Basin. This BG has a high bracket I believe of 49, while we are 46. This means we are pretty underleveled for this BG. However….

… we obliterated it, hard core.

Here is the 1080p video below, have fun watching it!

Multiboxing Dire Maul – 46 minutes of awesomeness

Tim — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 03:44:22 +0000

In this video the 3x Multiboxers of Tim hit up Dire Maul. DM (yes, DM, not deadmines, that is VC) is one of my favorite instances. The instance is really large, however, you don’t feel like time is wasted. The bosses are pretty meh, but the swirling environment is pretty fun. Plus there is a room with a big giant tree that kicks doors down which is pretty boss.

One multiboxing note for this instance is to be careful for all the stairs and twisty tunnels. The biggest enemy of a multiboxer is the environment (stairs, doors, etc) as you can often get stuck.

Watch how we pwn it up in this 46 minute long youtube video in High Def 1080/720!!

Multiboxing Instances: Maradon Earth Song Falls by 3x Hunters

Tim — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 03:37:39 +0000

This video we finally got to show our…arrows right into the fat princess of Maradon. Speaking of which, who is her mother and father?

Anyway, we obliterated this instance and had fun with our pets tanking some pretty high DPS mobs for the first time. Midway through the video you will see us tanking 2x of those rock giants, not to mention killing Rotgrip, all by ourselves.

Have fun watching this HD 1080/720 video!

Multiboxing Video: SM Armory 3x Hunters

Tim — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 03:32:01 +0000

In this video we were multiboxing SM Armory on the 3x Hunter team. We blew through this instances in under 15 minutes, and we probably could have done it in half of the time.

One of the keys to doing this instances, for us, was to group up large numbers of elites, then spam multishot several times, and feign death if we ever had aggro. This video is in full HD including 720p and 1080p.

3x Hunters Video Adventures: SM Library

Tim — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 03:26:46 +0000

Here is a quick awesome video of multiboxing SM Library on the 3x Hunters. Currently the hunters are all 3x MM spec, with a Dog, a Wolf, and a Fox as pets.

I’ve learned that multiboxing with Multishot is intensely awesome. Take a look at the HD video here:

Tim’s first new MB video on Youtube since ‘09

Tim — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 00:06:59 +0000

I’ve decided to start documenting all of the instances my 4x DK 1x Paladin multiboxing team has done in full on Youtube. This is my first video of multiboxing that I’ve created since 2009 so I’m a bit rusty.

Tim’s new multiboxing team: 3x Priests

Tim — Wed, 23 Feb 2011 21:25:08 +0000

I’ve gone ahead and finally created a new multiboxing team in Cataclysm, on a new server, and will be streaming the entire leveling process, all the way to 85!

Some details:

Server:   US-Lothar (Horde) PVE
Guild:   (to be determined)
My Main:   Gobtima (Priest)
My Alt: Gobtim (level 85 Mage)

The new team I am building is 3x Priests. I plan on leveling as Shadow, with dual-spec to Disc. I’m very excited to see how well 3x Vampiric heals do in LFD instances!

I will be creating a guild that will server not only as an awesome guild for multiboxers, but also as a support tool for people who want to multibox themselves, who have questions, and overall need guidance. Guild chat will be there to help.

I plan on streaming this character all the time, and eventually will post a schedule. For now, the stream will be live @ 8am CST February 24th.

Guild Goals:

To level up multiboxing teams.
To do battlegrounds
To do heroics with multi-multiboxing teams (eg, 1 2box, 1 3box, from the guild)
To do raids multi-multibox style
Have fun!

The stream will be here: http://justin.tv/multiboxing

Anybody who wishes to join the guild, just let me know. The guild will be very open and anybody can join. After a time I will establish guild officers to handle recruiting and raiding and overall team building.

Also to note, I’m level 19 on my 3x Priests. I had to start them around this level because I was stuck in Goblin world and had to break free!

Janus multiboxes Blackrock Caverns (normal)

Tim — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 04:43:41 +0000

Our very own Janus created an amazing video of multiboxing Blackrock Caverns. A quote from the man himself:

So I decided to see how far my Wrath-equipped, level 80 team could make it in Blackrock Caverns. I had started leveling in Mount Hyjal and ran across the NPC that grants entrance to the instance. I hopped into the teleporter and found myself in Blackrock Caverns.

Per Janus, below is a general breakdown of the encounters and my team composition. It is not the cleanest execution, as I was shooting this “as is”, with no to little preparation, and all these encounters were completely new to me

Team composition:
- Janus : protection pally
- Adonis: elemental shammy
- Bellenus: moonkin
- Aurora: Arcane mage
- Cymara: Holy priest

Team level: 80 (dinged 81 after completing this dungeon ! YAY! )
Gear: Full Wrath heroic dungeon gear
MBoxing software: PWNboxer

Strategy:
1- First Boss:
Make sure as you’re preparing to do the encounter, to clear all the mobs close to the boss, as once pulled, he “shouts out” to the closest adds and pulls them to the fight (as I discovered the hard way, like you can see in the movie)
It’s a simple tank and spank otherwise with a few twists:
- He does a quake, that erupts under your party’s feet, when you see the ground moving, it’s your queue to move your team out of harm’s way, otherwise big damage to everyone
- He pulls all the toons into chains of woe. When that happens, focus fire on the chains, then get out of his way, as he does some sort of cleave that deals major damage
- Rinse and repeat

2- Second Boss:
This is the most technically challenging in this dungeon, in my opinion. She has two adds, that once she is engaged, are targeted by “evolution beams”. Your job is to break the beam by moving your toons into its path, but there is a timer (around 20 sec), after which your toon will evolve into a dragonkin and wreak havoc to the party. This requires some micromanaging as you will need to grab a beam with your tank, and then one after the other, put your slaves into the path of the other. This way, only one dragonkin can evolve at a time and you can bring him down, then let the other one evolve and bring him down next. After both are down, focus fire on the boss and GG

3- Third Boss:
Interesting mechanic. You need to “heat him up” in the middle beam, otherwise he is invincible and does not take damage! As he does (he changes his color) he starts doing major AOE damage to the team. Mass heal and then get him out of the beam. I did 4-5 stacks and my healer was managing fine. Once the debuff expire, reposition him back into the beam and repeat. Make sure to stand inside as when the debuff expires lava surges from the mesh on the ground (see movie)

4- Fourth boss:
Tank and spank. It punts random team members. I had no clue it did that (LOL! as you can see 2 of my toons died in this fight, and my IWT was broken, forgot to rebind it ).
Two interesting things: first you don’t need to kill this boss to complete the dungeon in random LFD (power leveling FTW with 100k xp and justice points). Second if you kill the baby that is behind it, it turns REALLY mad and one-shoots your tank. So don’t kill her fourth baby !

5- Fifth boss:
Tank and spank. Reminds me of the arcane boss in the Nexus, as he “transfers his powers to one of his shadows” just switch targets and beware of the aggro wipe (also discovered this the hard way, as you can see)

That’s it !

Speedracing 1-85 Goblin – Help Tim Pick The Class!

Tim — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 11:31:43 +0000

Upon the release of Cataclysm, I (Tim) am going to be racing a single character, a goblin, from level 1 to level 85, as fast as I can. I will be doing this for approx. 12-16 hours a day, every day, until 85, 100% streamed on JTV. I literally will be powering as FAST as I can, following the details of a leveling strategy I built in advance to race things as fast as possible.

I will be leveling this on a PVE server so PVP doesn’t interrupt me as I will be making a video of the entire process. Then I intend to server transfer it to Blackrock. Also, I expect this race of leveling to take a week or so with 7 days in a row, 12-16hrs a day.

So the question is: Which class should I race to 85?

Please vote on which class I should pick in this thread.

A few quick notes:

This will be done on a brand new account, so no Heirlooms.
This will be done on a PVE Horde server so I can speed focus on leveling w/o worry of gankage.
I will be solo leveling, so the bulk of things will be questing w/some instance ques.
This entire process will be streamed on Justin.tv on the http://justin.tv/multiboxing channel.

Pwnboxer Development Live Chat 11-20-10 @ 10am CST

Tim — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 18:19:44 +0000

For the first time we are going to do a general Pwnboxer Q+A to get everybody involved on where Pwnboxer is at in general, as well as some ideas you might have, or requests, for features.

Saturday 11/20/10 @ 10am CST @ http://justin.tv/multiboxing

Bring any suggestions you have, bugs you encounter, and general thoughts about Pwnboxer to the stream. No matter how crazy your idea is, I’d love to hear it.

The reason for this chat is that Pwnboxer, to me personally, has reached a state where I find it absolutely perfect for my every day multiboxing needs. However, I just one person out of many, and Pwnboxer really is about the general multiboxing community as a whole, so having YOUR feedback on how Pwnboxer is for you is of utmost importance.

Some possible idea subjects:

New ways of doing mouse broadcasting?
New ways of managing key broadcasting?
Non-multiboxing features (Eg, the Google ping it has now)
Video streaming built-in?
Social/community ideas?

Everybody is welcome, including those who use Pwnboxer, those who do not, and everybody in between.
