Will we see the rise of 30-40 boxers again in AV?

[Kiljaedon]

This is coming from someone who use to multi-box all the time in original and up until WOTLK but even I want to see a crackdown on people who will be boxing. Will we see a rise in the old 40-50 boxer players like we did back then?

40man Boxer in AV?

That's called an easy win.

nobody did that many

Why do you feel that you need to dictate what other people do for fun? Why is it your job to be the fun police. I hope I never meet someone like you in game because I am trying to stay away from all of the Classic toxicity.

Pretty sure we wont. I dont see the point of having to to tab into each instance of the game to fire a spell.

Because - as we all know - automation is against the tos. And sending keystrokes to different isntances of the game from 1 keystroke is automation

Why the hell would someone multibox 30 accounts in AV? It would be a guaranteed loss for them.

"wahh wahh TOXIC!!!"

[Kiljaedon]

I just didnt think AV was originally designed for one person to be 40 of the players. That became a big deal back in BC-near Legion.

Multiboxing has always been perfectly legal. An addon with automation isn't possible, but nothing prevents you from sending a single keystroke to multiple clients.

Actually someone did.

People are allowed to multi box now. Some rule changes did complicate how they could do it, but blizzard didn't stop it. The money and resources required to do it at the scale of 40 is the real reason we won't see it.

I think its more about the effect it has on the other players when they encounter a multiboxer, not what other people do for fun. I dont really have a problem with 40 man multiboxers in AV though, that seems like an easy win.

1-2 people who did this in the past means nothing... OP is acting like it was common. Which it was not.

BG's will be cross-realm. 1 guy doing it will touch everyone in a region.

i'd be a lot more scared of someone multiboxing 5 rogues in AV than someone mulitiboxing 30+ chars.

i'd 100% try to charge intimidating shout the 30+ blob though.

[garicasha]

It’d be a lot of fun to do but so much dang work.

Sure anything you targeted would die immediately but literally everything out of sight would be uncontested.

The rea question is how the /follow command will work and whether 1 keypress can go to 40 clients is allowed. If either of those don’t work it’s not practical.

$15 x40 = $600/month...you can get a real nice car for that too

Not sure what part of my post had people confused with multiboxing being illegal, its not and never has been.

BUT

Sending keystrokes to multiple instances of wow with 1 keystroke is considered automation.So the only way to actually play this is to set up different macros for each seperate instance(which is why people usually 2-5 man and not more then that, or simply control one at the time.

I cant believe people actually dont know this today

Automation certainly is possible, and its very easy. However blizzard has very good software for detecting that kind of stuff now. ANd yes, if you by 1 keystroke can make several characters do something, thats automation. Sorry

Automation or not, it's not against the TOS

Your definition of automation is not the same as Blizzards definition. They have been on record saying that multiboxers' addons pushing keystrokes to each client is not automation. 1 keypress = 1 action, and that action can be sent to all toons, and is not considered automation.

Dude, if the entire AV raid is at the same place, you're guaranteed to lose. 10 people multibox can be pretty powerful, but 30 or 40 and you're fucking yourself over really badly.

And he'll beat exactly nobody. AV is not that simple.
