Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone of you had managed to dual box on the same computer ?
I dont find the way to have two instances of vanguard launched on the same computer (with 2 different accounts of course).

Olso, what duo would be the best in dual boxing with a monk ? (i know that "best" and "monk" in the same sentence is quite strange but eh, i just dont want to play something else ^^)

Any help would be appreciated Smiley

They dont make it possible to run to instances of VG on the same comp.. Somehow they locked out running the exe file twice.  However, even if you could, youd have to have one whopper of a system to do so (not saying that you dont).

As for a duo with a monk... Shamans, traditionally and still do, seem to work out well.  Also bloodmages work good too.  Clerics keep me alive just fine and have good buffs..  Pick and choose I guess.

I'm relatively fond of Clerics for duos.  However my room mate has a Disciple.  He's a lot of fun to Duo with.  We haven't tried it since Update #1.  But as it stood we both did good damage, I kept aggro, and he kept me alive.  The only catch was arguing over who got what gear drops (if it has healing focus it was his).

I have no problems duo boxing.  ~_~;  besides the huge lag of course.  You should try installing two different instances, that is what I did.
