EverQuest w/the Adventure Squad, LvL66 [E073 More Farm & New Level]

[@paladine6]

Have you thought about trying IS Boxer? With your set up I'd consider it critical as the content gets harder. So many of your toons are idle when they could be attacking or using some form of macro.

Honestly, I think about it as I’m having a wipe because as you say, too many toons are idle. But, I have to suffer thru and go “all-natural” without outside support. I have to try and keep thinks as classic as I can.

@@everquestrangering I personally don't use IS boxer either, but I have 4 computers so all my toons are auto following all the time, and I hit macro's to get them attacking/casting/etc... Like 4 keyboards, 4 mice, 4 screens, and I have run two accounts on my main Computer, but that extra toon is also on auto follow and when I switch to it, I can hit 1-2 macro's going. You do use macro's right? Those idle toons you have can do so much more. For example the Ranger. When you switch to that screen hit a hotkey (lets say 1) which has commands to assist, cast a snare, throw a dot on the target...and then switch to the next toon (lets say the chanter), and hit it's first macro that assists, then tashes, and then slows. Using pauses in the macro accomplishes all of that. Macro's macro's macro's....I can't stress how important they are.

@@everquestrangering Also little advice for the chanter box when mezzing. Root that stuff. When you go break mez with the Duff, you don't have to chase it. Smack it, break mez, and build that aggro.

@@paladine6 once they all hit lvl70, which is in less than 50% because I have 10 episodes waiting to upload, I am going to really really look at all the spells. I didn’t know enchanters got root. If not, I can use my RNGs Tolan’s gloves. Also, I have started to use a mem blur spell before doing the old wakey wakey on the exes mob. Thanks for the advice! I want to do this stuff bettrr

@@everquestrangering Chanters get decent root spells. Tash helps the roots land so that first. With that cleric you could even try some charming. It's insane dps boost. I know it sounds risky, but the trick is audio triggers. Once ya set up an audio trigger that beeps when charm breaks, you hit a macro on your cleric to target that charm pet, stun it, and then back to the chanter to re tash and re charm it. It took me while to get all this stuff down. I spent hours working on macro's for all this stuff to maximize each toons abilities. Earlier when I said I have my toons on auto follow all the time also helps. Even with your style of switching between accounts on same computer. Have them all auto following, and then when you tank a mob with the Duff, turn around and have all your toons behind that mob. Then switch between accounts hitting all their macros,
