They aren’t going to ban multibixors as long as those players aren’t using software or hardware to mirror actions. If they are controlling each character individually with their own inputs, it will be perfectly fine. Blizzard has always been fine with it.

You can’t trade between your characters so regardless how much unique loot drops, it’s not all going to drop on a single character.
And who cares if someone gears up their toon faster than you do? You? If so then you have a problem.

added i also have the same name as here
im old… and I did enough multi boxing when i played games that had a healer/buffer type class (aka WoW, Everquest) and it had 1 client that the game ran from and you could alt tab to the other account (I still had to pay for the extra subs) and it was enjoyable since i could just self heal/buff/dps, this style game doesnt have that. You cant load multi accounts on 1 computer with the client since its tied to your battlenet id (unless you use a VM and just host a few VM’s from your 1 computer which is possible giving you that alt tab ability). Anyways if someone is determined to play multi accounts at the same time and they can effienctly, more power to them. I’d be truely impressed but it doesnt have any affect on my game play or the way I enjoy playing.
bottom line, it doesnt matter!

Yea, good luck ever winning PVP against that guy, possibly in HC.
Ofc it matters…(wish they actually made a game where it didn’t but they wanted it always online and with PvP so…)
Also you can trade perfect rares to anyone. (Not clear about ancestral rares working the same yet - or I forgot.)
Amen to that man , i totally agree.
Same old complaints that I’ve been seeing since multiboxing became a thing in WoW. It’s been like… 15~ years or something close to that.
I’m sure Blizz will get right on that, any day now.

It’s not has to be a Nightmare Dungeon. They can use it for WT2 normal dungeons. It’s an exploit and everyone knows that. You’re defending an exploit. Do you think my 3-4 hour gameplay session worth equal to 24/7 bot’s work and it’s not gonna be only 1 client. It’s a total JK. You’ll use it, nobody can defend it. It’s abnormal, you seem pathetic, period…
If that is not useful for human why the hell they give this to us ? If there is no point, then remove it ?? Please don’t defend this, I actually just saw that LOL.
Is there any guy can defend this objectively ? Please convince us
You can load multiple accounts on 1 computer without use of VM. That’s the whole reason the battlenet client has the setting to “allow multiple instances of battlenet”.

You go have fun in tier 2 with him and get your “loot”. 
Sorry seen you responded to someone else not me had to delete that post. I can bet ill be in WT4 before any of these non multiboxer guys beat the first capstone to enter WT3.

I’m not defending it. Base off the two readily available sources, it’s easy to assume that it is WoW only. My post was a warning to those who interpret it that way.

Thanks for the feedback MissCheetah and confirming that multiboxing is allowed.
I would like to comment on the “one keystroke = one action per account” statement. When I say 1 key 1 action 1 client I refer it to as I click 1 time and my player on 1 account moves to said location.
Not what the WoW guys tried to do and say “its only 1 action on all my characters so its still 1 key 1 action!”. This is actually 1 key 1 action over multiple accounts. We can see this in equations like shown below:
x = number of clients any action was performed in
n = total number
c = 1 action such as clicking or pressing 1 on keyboard
r = reaction such as character moves or casts a skill
C + R + X = N
If we plug these numbers in for multiboxing without 3rd party software to mirror we get the following.
4 clients: 1 (pressed 1 on keyboard) + 1 (the character casts a skill) + 1 (number of clients this action was performed on.) = 3
Now we take the total number of 3 and put it to the test against someone using 4 total clients with 3rd party tools that just mirror actions. We will not get the same value this is what they were doing in WoW.
4 Clients: 1 (pressed 1 on keyboard) + 1 (the character casts a skill) + 4 (number of clients this action was performed on) = 6
This can go on infinitely or as many clients you want to run and is not legit 1 key 1 action per 1 client as you see by the number. This is where Blizzard had to specify that mirroring or cloning actions are not allowed through their EULA, specifically about it for WoW, as they don’t currently see issues with it in ARPG games like Diablo.
I can bet they will update the EULA to reference the Diablo IP since there is a video to show this in use and how it can be construed to be botting even though its just mirroring the actions of the user (or main account). Which people would try and argue as 1 key 1 action but its not as shown in formula above.
Actually that part isn’t true. There is a checkbox in the advanced options of battlenet that lets you run multiple instances of the battlenet client. This is because regardless of some peoples feelings about multiboxing, Blizzard supports that playstyle.
i saw someone else mention that too. I still honestly dont see a problem with someone multitasking as long as they are pushing buttons or clicking themselves. Still however others play have no barring on how I will play and enjoy my time playing.
ps thanks for letting me know about that feature! I will check for it and see how well that works

I can post a video for them if they don’t believe you! I had to do this with the Diablo Immortal guys that were crying on my server when I was spooning with 4 guys in the library on its release, LOL!
That feature allows you to run as many Battlenet clients as you would like on your PC. You will have to figure out the “cough install game 4 times cough cough and point each client cough cough to the correct install cough cough path cough” part.
Think I’m getting a cold.

Really? You need to really think about it…
You make 4 same class and you aim specific build with certain unique that is very rare or something. None cheating guy might take 4 weeks to get it, but a guy with this exploit potentially get it 4X faster. It’s really not hard to understand the logic for most people…
Personally, I’m not a competitive at all. So, it doesn’t matter to me, but this matters to some people. This isn’t single player anymore. D4 has leader board. This is serious matter.

As long as you aren’t using a 3rd party program to run your multibox its fine and no you cannot use a single key press using any type of injection method 1 key press cannot be use to cast on multiple characters .

The above are the wow rules, which do not apply to D4.
