Dual Boxing Farming - Guild Wars Forums

Kapral · Dec 18, 2009, 12:56 AM // 00:56

I know how to get 2 GW running so it has nothing to do with that...

I am just curious if it is really viable to farm with 2 accounts at the same time, or if it just really isn't worth it at all...

Are there any programs/scripts that help with this, a special community about it (such as WoW has)...

If anyone has any info regarding farming with two accounts on the same computer that would be great...

I don't really want builds at all, just any info you guys have, or any info as to where I can find it... I've been Googling for a while and haven't found much.

Hmm, by dual boxing I meant two accounts. As in you control both characters in the group so you get 100% of the drops (just on different accounts) vs. 50% when you run a hero.

Sorry for the confusion

I know that it is possible... I'm just wondering if anyone has done it, has any tips, and whatnot.

There is a program called GWx2 that lets you run two copies at the same time. You might have to find some keyboard script so that input in mirrored in both games. Running any 3rd party programs have risks associated, so be aware where you get it from.

Many people use this method to get 6 heroes for some more complex high-end farms, like Foundry where you need a wide variety of spirits and bonders to make things work well.

oh by the way the first link when you google "hurr durr guild wars farm bot" is totally trustable, download it and you won't get any viruses or get banned faster than your fat head can look up to see what hit you.

it is totally ridiculous how a thread like this will get carebear replies yet if someone has a legitimate question that was asked in 2006 they get whined at till the thread gets closed. bad joke.

Your the latest guy to go on my stupid wall, that reply has been noteworthy of the stupidest ever.

By script he meant a program like WoW users use which is ;

Dont worry, the link is perfectly safe.

So before you jump on to him like a complete asshat just because he asked for "Scripts" and you assume he wants to bot, he doesnt.

Just wants something that will make input between the 2 accounts easier other than clicking between the 2 windows/screens.

And I'd like to add to that, that I have yet to find a program that makes using 2 Guildwars easier. Just gotta stick with clicking between the 2 I'm afraid.

Lol, l2read. If I wanted to bot, I would, and I wouldn't ask here... It isn't hard...

Haha, thanks. Not exactly the answer I was hoping to hear, but it is what I was expecting. I guess I will just have to mess around with autohotkey some more.

I'm trying to run 2 spirit spammers and running spamming 2 of them is pretty annoying to do haha

This might be interesting. I could control 2 characters without losing the focus of my main window, other char with WASD and the other with the arrow-keys.
