MMORPG Multi-Boxing Site

I found this site listed on the WoW thread. Its too good to be lost in the middle of a big thread where most folks won't see it.

The folks there seem a great bunch; very helpful and theres a number of guides on the technical aspects of getting set up for boxing - anything from 2 -5 (most folks there are boxing WoW) and threads about optimal group setups etc.


Dual Boxing - Forums


It seems to have been set up by Ellay (maybe someone from the site can confirm ?) so kudos to the person/people who set it up and run it.


This thread is pure gold. A small app put together by Micah. Sets up your whole LAN to run from one keyboard and mouse. Takes about 30 seconds per PC to set it up.

Thanks for the plug, I'm Ellay and that is my site.

Might want to re-word the title though so they don't think it's a boxing game
Also the multi-box app you linked, there is a much more updated version on the site which allows to specify certain keystrokes instead of just all, with a toggle ability as well.

Xzin is expanding his rig from 5 pc's to 10 pc's at the moment with the primary intent of PvP. He's toggling the idea of 2 Priests with 4 Mages / 4 Warlocks, or just straight 8 Mages.

So you're saying this Xzin person is better than Furor?

Only if you consider the Burst DPS done by a single RL person, not a single in game character.

Why is Furor always the measuring stick. I mean, he's a warrior. He doesn't even have his highest hit screencapped in his sig for all to see, nor any of his uber mob killshots. How do you compare numbers if they aren't even published? Also, how do you adjust for inflation, since Furor retired as a character in 2004? Do you use the adjusted-Furor-index? What if you compared your 18 boxes to 18 Furor's?

PS: That website needs a photo section. Photos of the sad, sad lairs of these lonely people. Somewhere to show off the racks of pcs, the walls of monitors, the hospital beds. the mini fridge and toilet, and other creative setups utilized by the Multi Boxer Pros of the world. Can you imagine an entire gallery of Sam Deathwalkers? Every one with their own unique Viking look.

He probably doesn't have his highest hit screencapped in his sig because he realizes that this xzin guy is a lot better than he is.

It is small, but sad indeed.

We really need to direct Sam over there to post his mega-boxing sex slave setup he got going on... also to start that thread so we can sit back and watch the shitfest it becomes.

As linked above there is a screenshot section. I'd say Sam is more of an exception to the niche of players dual boxing and higher caters towards.
