Two-Boxing a healer

[BarrowBott]

<DIV>Hi all,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I know it's a goofy idea to two-box a caster and a healer, but I bought a second account and started levelling up a defiler.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I realize that it's impossible for me to use the defiler to it's full potential when two boxing by myself, but I was wondering if anyone had any advice to give.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What I have been doing, is finding a relatively 'add-free' camp spot, pulling heroics (only greens so far) and using my solo tactics with the coercer, boosting my performance (or the performance of my pet depending on how I'm feeling)  with wards.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Now I'm only level 19 with the coercer and 16 with the defiler, but does anyone see any fundamental flaws with the logic of what I'm doing, or have any advice for two-boxing a coercer with any class?</DIV>

as a coecer, you should have little to no problem finding a group.  I dont know a single person who doesnt like power regen adn mezzing adds. just let others worry about the other "boxes" <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div>

Get your healer at the same level as your Coercer as it will help in terms of keeping pace with any emergency heals you might need.<div></div>

<P>Thanks for all the advice.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>The defiler is now at level with the coercer, and I just got my new wireless keyboard working.  Unfortunately, I can't test it out until I get home from monitoring this software release LOL.</P>

<DIV>Get a Nostromo or Saitek gamepad.  Those are way better than an extra keyboard.   You can operate the defiler with your left hand.</DIV>

If you can do it that would be awesome... I was duoing with a templar in POA, we were up in the greendragon room and with a pet I brought from downstairs we were killing everything in the room; couldn't duo the greendragon but was close.  I was absolutely amazed at how easy and well we were killing things together... plus we were getting 1% aa experience per kill (we were both 70).  I'm currently hooking up my laptop to dual box with my 70 warden.  I would recommend trying a program called "multiplicity", it enables you to use one keyboard and one mouse with two monitors and two computers. All you need to do is move the mouse pointer off the screen in the direction of the other monitor and your keyboard and mouse switch over to that computer.  Easy way to click hotkeys from both toons.  <div></div>
