Exclamation Help needed for new user of Pwnboxer!

Hi guys,

I have bought PwnBoxer last week and have been quite happily playing 5 x Druids with my level 80 Boomkin as the master, the others are now level 32!

The problems have now arisen when I have replaced my level 80 Druid with a level 31 warrior tank and want to have one of my druids to be a dedicated healer.

I have read lots and watched lots of videos (which I have enjoyed) but can't find a step by step guide either text (or preferably video) to walk me through not only the setup, but the layout, macros and how to actually use it all together!

I really am terribly confused now and can't see how I am going to control a tank whilst 3 druids dps and the fourth druid is keeping us all alive

I have setup 5 x Dockable Clickmaps with 3 buttons on each for 3 healing spells but tbh just those 3 uses 15 macros and I know that I will want to use more healing spells than the initial 3 as I level my team up. This will get to be quite involved having x amount of macros for each character....

Please, please help as I have generated a lot of interest in the guild that I run and want to be able to get lots of our members multiboxing.

If there is anyone willing to join the TS3 server I run and chat to me about it, I would appreciate it

Thanks in anticipation.

Bob.
p.s. I have also tried the 7 day free trial of ISBoxer and whist there are a few very nice features that aren't in PWNboxer, I want to stay with and promote PWNboxer

You can set it up to send only certain keybinds to your healer, or your healing keys can be on completely different keys (all my heals are on the numpad, for example).

another option would be to use the button dock feature of pwnboxer, and put a box next to each toon on your party list with buttons for all your heals in each one, which in turn presses a macro to cast that spell on that toon.

Thanks for the reply.

As I mentioned above, I have already setup clickmapping but it will get quite involved as my levels increase!

Regards.

I would take a look at one of these options:
- Grid + Grid Custom Layouts + Clique
- Healbot
- Vuhdo

Whichever way you go, get an alphabetical sort.
So the top box is the same toon on every screen.

Then use a HKN script, to create a Repeater Region around the Grid/Healbot/Vuhdo frame.
So when you mouse enters the area, it enables broadcasting without any key presses on your part, and disables the broadcasting when you leave the area.

Then you need to set which clicks to what actions.
I like to use:
- Alt + Left = Hot effect.
- Alt + Right = Fast cast.
- Ctrl + Left = Special (Chain Heal or Wild Growth or PW: Shield, etc).
- Ctrl + Right = Big/Slow heal.


Here is my Grid Custom Layout: Grid Custom Layouts
And here is the HKN stuff: Mouse Broadcasting with HKN

What I have done, which I think is the easiest route, is simply to set up a few macros to heal.

So lets assume you have CharacterA, CharacterB, etc.

Make your druid have the following type of spells:

Code:
/cast [target=CharacterA] SomeHealSpell
Code:
/cast [target=CharacterB] SomeHealSpell
.....

Then bind those to the correct keys (Eg, ShiftF1 to heal A, ShiftF2 to heal B, etc.

Super easy, so you just have to hit that one spell when you need heals, and you can main control your tank the whole time (make sure the key is added to be broadcasted in PB) and you are set!

Easy Peasy!
