Yes, 2-box requires 2 separate WoW accounts. (How to explain this properly …)

Paying for 2 accounts for a game is the least of our expenses. Each new game requires boosting the gaming machine, etc. etc., so most of the gamers I know just assume that at least two accounts will be required for each game.

Now that I read that, it sounds crazy.

EDIT: (still trying to justify myself) … It’s not just a matter of “not sharing”, it’s also, waiting around for enough priests to log in, enough tanks, do we have the DPS, how bout some crowd control (mages), etc. In sum, are we self-sufficient?

You cannot know pain until you’ve sat on your ass in the virtual town, hoping that Joe Dumbumpriest logs in. If you had any sense at all, you’d hope he wasn’t going to play that night, and yet … there you are, hoping that he will.

In terms of two-boxing it… would you also have to have two distinct accounts each? That’s a lot of cash to fork over to not have to split loot 🙂

Actually, Blizzard doesn't seem to mind kiting mobs to newb areas (read the first post, then check out the blue response later in the thread).

You kids out there, don’t do what Twist is suggesting, because that would be wrong!! Although extremely entertaining.

Remember, don’t do as we do, do as we say.

Not a WoW player but I have played a few others where one of the fun things to do at high levels is to lead or summon really powerful monsters into low level areas and then sit back and watch the chaos that ensues until a GM fixes it. Of course this is best done when there are no GM’s around.
