I'm becoming a big fan! So glad you are making dofus content that I can understand lol I just started so your channel is really helping. Please keep up the good work that you do

[@Benjamight]

Thanks Rekt - I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos. I have LOADS more already in the works. :-)

[@vkadijk]

Hey Benja, just wanted to say that I appreciate these video's a lot. I was an experienced player but noticed that since 2015 a LOT has changed, to get back to the game this gives a fantastic foundation of tools/shortcuts and little tricks to make the quality of play way better. Thank you!

[@Benjamight]

You're very welcome Vincent - and thank you so much for the feedback, I greatly appreciate that! If you haven't already, check out my How to play Dofus in 2020 video... I cover a lot of things specific to changes made over the last few years. Should help bring you up to speed quickly. Anyways - welcome back to Dofus. :-)

[@vkadijk]

@@Benjamight Yes I will explore your content more extensively in the following week, back in the day I pretty self thought all principles to myself and used the dofus wiki. Great to have some english content to enjoy and learn from :)

[@sandisuran5603]

Thanks a lot on the tips & tricks part! I played this game 7 years ago, and I just returned to it. I never played with the multi account before but because of your great channel I will play with duo Int Cra and Cha Enutrof.

[@Benjamight]

You're so welcome Sandi! That's awesome I was able to help you Duo... the Cra/Enu should be a really fun long range team! I actually have a new Duo Team Series starting (possibly next week), which will be very different for me... I always have run a 4-man team...lol. Thanks for the support on the channel, I really appreciate it!

Major tip for people running multiple account and having lagg: Put Dofus in 32-bit in launcher settings! Takes RAM memory usage from 600-800mb to 300-400mb!

[@B0Sajwah]

Great video, thank you mate, really appreciate it 🥳

[@woozyjoker3832]

Great content! I used to play years ago, and am going to get back into it once my pc arrives in a week or so. Your videos have been a big help. Have you considered making a video about which characters to make as your 4 man team?

[@Benjamight]

That's fantastic Woozy, I'm glad you're enjoying them! I've had several requests for class guides, but that's the first for a team building guide... I like that, it's very unique. I'll have to do some thinking on that. Thanks for the feedback, it's much appreciated!

Thank you so much Saad - I really appreciate that. Thanks for the support.

[@lennardreinsch4401]

good video, your editing and sound quality have improved significantly! although i know dofus retro has ahk scripts for easily switching accounts, i wish something like that was readily available for the current version of the game.

[@darkari6]

There is i run 8 accounts and use f1-f8 to swap and f9 to move all at once on The current version

Thanks Lennard, makes me happy to see others can see the improvements. Quality is one area I keep looking for ways to improve. :-)

You're welcome Abdelmoumene! Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.

[@Nubcakez]

I'm not a multi-accounter, but I'll still throw in my 2 cents xP You mentioned that multi-accounting is not allowed in anything PvP-related, but it's actually just prohibited in AvA (percs, prisms, King of the Hill). Multi-accounting is allowed in kolo :3 The difference is that when you register for kolo with a pre-made team of 3 (whether you're multi-accounting or with other people), you will only be matched against teams that are also registered as a pre-made team of 3 (and when registering solo, you will only be matched against players that are also registered solo). That also means that if you're running a 3-man team in kolo, you get triple the amount of tokens for winning a fight xP

[@benjaminallen5473]

OMG! That's huge! Thanks so much for that feedback and posting it here...very helpful!

[@Benjamight]

Thanks Nubs - I'll definitely have that in my follow-up video.

[@sh.renaud]

Just a little tip for the first part : You don't need to put your username and psw for the other accounts; Go to option and then go to multi-accounts, then do that 1 time there and you're set to go ! Just need the authenticator unlock and that's it. For the other stuff, thank you ! found where i was looking for, Alt + ESC : wish i could find a way to keep my chrome open instead to Alt-tab twice every time

[@Benjamight]

Thanks Renaud for the multi-login mention... I know that was something recently added, so down the road if I make an updated version of this video, I will be sure to include that!

[@somethingsqueeky8435]

What laptop specs would you recommend for running 8 accs smoothly? Im thinking intel i7 processor and 8Gb Ram or 16Gb Ram, im not sure if 8gb is enough

[@dagoss5]

Thanks a lot! Great video. The problem on my pc is that by using ALT TAB i switched only btw the two latest opened windows (not four) you know how to fix it? Thanks

[@ands2873]

7:10 this key combination what is it for a MacBook Pro how to find out?

[@eslixgaming756]

If you are in incarnam and you are in a group you can press on someones name and click "join". Then you automaticly join their map. No need to relog all accs.

[@Benjamight]

Sweet! Thanks for that feedback Eslix - I'll be sure to include that tip when I make my follow-up video on this subject.

[@Illeprih]

You should've covered scripts/binds. It's essentially a must when running bigger teams. + You can use ctrl + number to launch X instances of Dofus.

[@lennardreinsch4401]

Do you actually have links for dofus 2 scripts ? I genuinely can't find any

[@Illeprih]

@@lennardreinsch4401 I wrote a simple ahk ones myself. It's not very hard. You simply need to bind your windows to preferably function keys or keypad and then have something for clicking into multiple windows at once. Simple stuff. No advanced packet sniffing/trainer needed.

[@Kioh987]

Nice content !

[@Benjamight]

Thanks James.

[@lemoultkev]

there's also a keyboard shortcut on windows to move those windows just press the windows key and the directonal arrows to move it around

[@user-uc9gi2xf8r]

omg this is so useful, ty

[@hapadyamatt3731]

I have a great tip: Have your accounts get married in pairs. That way they can teleport to each other, and you do not have to walk on as many windows. This is very useful when a new account has no zaaps

[@Vhg6vu7iif556]

You should blurs your account, just in case. Aside from that, Thanks for the tutorial!

[@tiagopereira6313]

As a multi accounter (used to play teams of 8) in dofus for years during Dofus 1.29 and 2.0 I would say that the best way is to use a script like auto hot key. Script F1/F2 etc to select the window you want Wanna run ? Just spam F1 click, F2 click. Etc I am just coming back to the game since the launch of Frig 3 and your videos make me hyped :) GJ for the good content man ! As soon as I am able, I'll post the script here.

[@Benjamight]

Welcome back Tiago, so glad you found the channel. Yeah, I know a lot of people like the Hotkey method... I tried it once, but prefer Alt/Esc... I've used it so long it's just second nature to me now I guess. Mystopia actually just released a video a few weeks ago walking people through how to setup a Hotkey for Dofus - you might give his video a quick watch to see if that's how you do it or have suggestions for him on other options. Thanks again for checking out my channel - have an awesome day.

[@Ali-md7kh]

Nice content, can i know what laptop/pc are you using? Thanks :)

[@Benjamight]

Thanks Ali. I'm using a custom built PC... first time I've ever made one. I actually detail the specs and what it looks like in one of my videos. I can't recall the title of it at the moment, but it's under the 'News and Fun' playlist - I think I called the video Benjamight Gaming 2.0. If you'd like to see it in more detail, that shows it off pretty nicely.

[@creatordofus4629]

Nice videos 👍🏽

[@Benjamight]

Thanks - much appreciated.

[@LuiferXD]

you forgot 2 important things In incarnam you can go to friend list and click "JOIN" you will be teleported to any place on incarnam and on the same "instance" like you were married that way you avoid logging off and on . And the best tip for 2,4 6 and 8 its getting married You can marry your chars and "join" them on any part of the map up to 15 maps maximun wich its great for questing I personally run 2 and sloowly considering a 3 but it is expensive and 3r can marry the other 2 Sadly theres no throuple on dofus yet.

[@Benjamight]

Thanks for the feedback Julio - I did totally forget about the marry feature. I'll make sure to include that in the sequel video down the road.

[@jamielack62]

I use a script so I can press f1 f2 f3 f4 to switch between my 4 character windows in full screen

[@AmberSugar1]

for some reason when i try to open another tab to choose my 2nd character it logs me out of the 1st tab and let me on the 2nd.

[@Benjamight]

Hello there OwlKnight... make sure you hold down the Control key on your keyboard and select the number of accounts you want to launch (so if you wanted to launch 2, then you would hold Control and tap the 2 key on the keyboard while hovering over the 'Play' button). If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll see if I can figure out what's going on for you.

[@MrGreenfingers09]

I think they changed the multi account rule for Kolosseum - i know it's an old video though :)

[@B0Sajwah]

Just a question, I'm a noob in this game so I don't know why was your level 66? And it was highlighted in yellow too

[@Benjamight]

Hi Saj. My Iop has entered into Omega levels. You character can go from level 1 to 200, which used to be the max. A few years ago, Amkama added the 'Omega' levels which is a way for you to go beyond 200. You don't get any more spells, more character points, or HP points, but you do still get Pods. Omega levels don't really do much for you, it's more just for having a reason to still get XP.

[@Gwidas78]

Another con of multi is that its really exhausting at least to me if I play on 4characters I get burnt out really fast but playing 1char only is really chill I just wish there was a different difficulty scaling because right now regardless if u play solo or as 4 ure playing in the same difficulty which makes absolutely no sense and in a certain way the game just kind of forces you to multi

[@Benjamight]

Hi Xeavenless. I totally understand your point of view - there are nights when I log just 1 account instead of 4, because you're right - it does take more energy to run 4. Personally though, I still have more fun with running 4... I always compare this game to chess, and I feel like the more accounts I'm running, the more pieces I have on my chess board. As for the being forced to multi... I see what you're saying, but I don't think it's Ankama trying to force people to run multiple accounts, but force people to have to form groups to do certain activities. So if that's by purchasing and logging your own team (not all MMO's allow this feature, so I see it as a plus), hooking up with some guildies, or trying to recruit randomly through chat (this is probably my least favorite method...lol) - the goal is for some content to require a squad. Obviously, this can be frustrating if there is a quest step or a dungeon a person is wanting to do, but can't because they can't find someone else to help them out - but I think that's just an aspect that goes with most MMOs. Anyways, I totally understand your point of view. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.

[@alban1963]

hello i have a question. If i want to do be in Astrub with more than one account do i need a subscription for each account i log on to?

[@alban1963]

Also could you do a guide for someone who does not have a subscription to be able to get one through the game and not buying it? please

[@Benjamight]

Hello A&E... you can multi-account as free to play, and you can actually explore all of Astrub and each of the areas immediately outside of it (and I think even the sewer area under Astrub). But beyond that, you'll need a subscription for each account you want to take further out.

[@onkila4699]

I have 7 accounts. Is there anything or software where I can click once and all 7 change map?

[@Benjamight]

Unfortunately not. :-( Some people use Hot Key Scripts to link accounts to keyboard numbers, which they find easier for switching between accounts for moving a squad... personally, I prefer the Alt/Esc. But as for now, there aren't any programs or anything to auto-move the team that I'm aware of.

[@renanthomes6007]

Hello, something is going wrong with my launcher. When I click "play" for the first time, it opens a Dofus instance (window) normally. But, when I click "play" again, it says that it's opening 2 instances; however, it does not open another Dofus window. Do you know how to fix this bug? P.S.: Randomly and rarely, I manage to open 2 instances, I don't know why.

[@Benjamight]

Hi Renan - that sounds like a bug to me. I'd maybe post your issue on the Dofus Forums and/or consider uninstalling the launcher and re-installing it. Perhaps that would repair it. Bugs are annoying Renana - I hope that helps.

[@renanthomes6007]

​@@Benjamight , thanks for your responce. I had re-installed it and it worked temporarilly, but it seems that the bug has returned now T.T

[@homieboi22]

can you create new content for multi accounts? i think they change the launcher now

[@Benjamight]

You still can, but you need a unique e-mail address for each account. It's annoying to setup, but once you're done it's good to go. :-)

[@koopatroopa5209]

I have tried playing with multi-accounts for the first time with 2 instances but as soon as I log into another one it says "connection to the server has been interrupted" am I the only one having this issue?

[@Benjamight]

Hi Koopa, I think I know what your problem is. You have to create 2 separate accounts first. So for example, if your Dofus Account Name is Koopa1, you will want to go to the Dofus Website and create a 2nd account (say Koopa2). You can create it using the same e-mail address & password if you wanted to, but you do need 2 unique account names. Then on the Dofus Launcher, you sign into Koopa1 in the first instance and Koopa2 in the 2nd one. I hope this helps - feel free to reach out if that doesn't work or you still have problems. Good luck... running Multiple-Accounts are SO much fun!

[@koopatroopa5209]

@@Benjamight YES! It workeed finally thank you :D I can finally play with multi-acc now ^^

[@kagetora03]

when i run a second instance it disconnects me on the first instance. can someone help me pls?

[@Benjamight]

Hi SchoolWrecker - I just helped someone else yesterday with this same problem. Basically, you need to create a 2nd Dofus account on the Amkama website. You can use the same e-mail address and password as your 'main' account, but it has to have a unique username. For example, lets say that your current Dofus account is SchoolWrecker1... on the Dofus site, create a new account and call it SchoolWrecker2. Then when you launch 2 instances of Dofus, you will sign into SchoolWrecker 1 on the first one, and SchoolWrecker 2 on the second one. I hope that makes sense... if you need any clarification, just let me know. Best of luck.

Hi) tell me a team of 4-6-8 people. What classes are better to take to be lonely in everything) thanks in advance)

[@Benjamight]

Hi Hamk. The easiest balanced 4 man team would be an Iop, Eni, Panda, and probably Enu. That's a well rounded team that can take on most anything. As for 6 and 8, you would just want to add whatever you're looking for more of. If you want more damage - a Cra or Eca are great choices... more map manipulation - Elio is great but also Srams… support - Osa's and Sadida's are nice options. Honestly, just about any combination at groups of 6 to 8 are viable when built upon that original 4. Hope that helps.
