EU Multiboxing Server - Guild

Kalyse — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 20:31:11 GMT

Does anyone know of any EU multi boxing guilds on any server for EU? I'd prefer to create my characters there rather than pay the 80GBP to move them when they are maxed.

How many accounts can I MB on my setup.

Kalyse — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 09:34:06 GMT

Hi Everyone.
First post and first time I've ever considered MB'ing, so please offer any advice. I've already been trawling the forums for some time but have a few questions.

How many accounts can I run from a single system?
My build is a:

Rampage ii Extremem Mobo,
SSD 275/275(read/write)
i7 OC'd to 3.6Ghz
GTX 460 evga (I'm not sure if this is good? I am not a graphics man so just asked someone to pick a card for me when I built my system).

I gave my account last year and was thinking about starting again.. but doing 1-80 would be sooo boring, since I've done it several times now, so I thought I would do it 5 times over lots of accounts? What is the opinion - do you guys think it would be fun to level up all of them? Or is it really hard work? I have never MB'xd before.

I already gave away two accounts on my battle net account, so I'm going to have to buy 5 more. Whats the most cost efficient way of doing it? Presuming I can have 5 acct's running at the same time? How many monitors would I need also.

Thanks. (More questions to follow)

Multiboxing Contest - Ideas?

Tim — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 08:17:07 GMT

I'd love to do another Multiboxing.com contest to spur up the community. The problem is I'm always having a hard time trying to figure out some ideas to make it happen.

Any thoughts on what the contest could be?

What if we had everybody create characters and join a specific server, and then do something? Thoughts or ideas?

I'd probably toss in a little prize of some sort as well :)

WoW Team Dashboard / Portal

Zub — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 02:27:02 GMT

Hi all,
Some people might know me as they also roam the *other* multi-boxing website i usually post on.

I've created a web portal that helps manage and monitor your teams' gear/achievements/professions etc.
Thought I would share it with you all :-)

This Team Portal is part of a bigger set of WoW Tools and web applications called WoW Ratings
You can access the Team Portal directly here:

WoW Stuff - Team Portal

I originaly built it for myself (to see which toons needed which achievements and upgrades) but I now think it might benefit the whole multiboxing community.
The Portal page looks something like this:

(snip by Tim, it breaks my head!)
Screenshot of the Portal here!
(edit zub: replaced the large image by a link, added the following 2 smaller images)

It is currently limited to 5 toons, but i might extend it to 10-man teams if my servers can take the refresh load and the demand exists
Ina ny case you can create as many 5-man lists as you want.

I think the above image is quite self-explanatory, and i've also recently added professions to the portal:

To get started, just register and create a Maxi Toon List (like the one in my sig), then go to the WoW Teams to generate the Portal info.

People that already have Maxi Toon lists should be able to see the Portal right away by calling this url:
http://wow-ratings.com/index_teams.php?id=

For example, my main 5-man team: WoW Stuff - Team Portal

You can change the default achievement that is displayed, and link any achievement you like.

Tell me what you think!
I would be happy to hear your comments/suggestions/critics, and am ready to consider changes/additions.

Hope you like it :-)

Proff advice

vendortrash — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:35:29 GMT

ok so i am dual-boxing up 2 hunters on a brand new server
im a bit of an ah whore so ill have a fiew k gold by the time i hit 60 though i want to save it up for cata rather than powerleveling proffs

i have decided to make them both engineering
one will be goblin and the other gnomish so i can make myself both bullets and arrows
the main will have mining but im not sure what proff to give the other hunter
its not going to be LW because i dont have a skinner same reason for Alchemy and inscription and im a little reluctant to make it BS/JC so i was think enchanting.
i want a proffesion that will either make me money save me money and or give me some nice extra stats.

im not changing engineering because i love the profession..
advice would be nice thankyou!!

The Stonecore (SC) 81-83
Abyssal Maw (ABY/AM) 81-83
Throne of the Tides (ToT) 82-84
Lost City of Tol'vir (LCoT) 84-85

Also, I heard that Heroic SFK and Deadmines were postponed by Blizzard, even though they promised it would be in Cata. Any idea if it will be there upon release?

So yea, how do us Multiboxers fare in Cata? :)

Guys feel stupid here.

eligon — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:36:14 GMT

Any of you have cataclysm beta access?

Paws — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 03:50:51 GMT

I heard just about all the quests from 80-83 are gather x number of items type quests and some multiboxers were going as far as accusing them of deliberately throwing the multibox community a speedhump.

Discuss?

Server Maint TONIGHT! All Read!

Tim — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 01:47:56 GMT

Just a heads up that I will be doing work on quite a few servers of mine, including the servers for Multiboxing.com, Pwnboxer.com, and the Pwnboxer validation servers.

So fire up your Pwnboxer now to avoid any potential issues and you should be good until the server rebuilding is completed.

The servers will be offline for about 1 hour max between 1 hour from now up until 5 hours from now.

Cheers!
