Putting Razor to the Test

Like everyone else who reads this blog, I have followed Razor's posts about boosting and multi-boxing and have read how easy it is and how much fun it is.  So I have decided to put him to the test and join the multi-boxing community.  If he can turn a noob like me into a successful multi-boxer then anyone can do it!

After reading a link that he gave me about someone having a macro set up so their 3 gnomes argue with each other, my decision was made.   It has to be gnomes and cute ones at that!

Following the first bit of advice, I have chosen my lead toon as a Protection Specced Pally for rounding up the mobs, holding aggro and for the odd rez when needed.  Unfortunately he is only level 60 after being in retirement for a couple of years.  I was very tempted to speed level him to 70 before starting but I am just too impatient.  His name is Beldarion on the Medivh server and the girls following him shall henceforth be known as Beld's Biatches (I was even tempted to create a guild for them so they could have the tag haha).

The second bit of advice after discussing hardware was to run Beld on my main gaming PC all by himself, and to run 3 toons on a separate higher end laptop.  While I have been waiting for the laptop arrive I have activated 2 new accounts (I already ran 2) and designed my little gnomes.  The design was easy as I already have a level 70 gnome warrior and decided to make them all identical to her.  I don't think the warrior will be as good as a Pally for boosting but do plan for one day down the track for my new gnomes to meet up and group with their maker/inspiration.

I know it is very cliche but the gnomes are all identical, have pink pigtails and will always be dressed exactly the same.  Looks are the most important part!!!!   I have decided on 2 warlocks (and from the wow forums that means I should be able to solo Black Temple) and a Mage.  Their names are Beldsdots, Beldsfears and Beldsnukes but only because Beldswatercooler has too many letters.  This should allow me to round up all the mobs on Beld, just throw up dots and then sit back and chat with myself while all the mobs die.  Lol, although I can't wait for the chance for them to all AOE at once haha.

The final advice at this stage was to level them all solo until level 10 and then join them up for the first of many deadmines runs.  The first is already done and hopefully the second will get done tonight.

Wish me luck !   (with Razor's help, I just might need it)
