Being one of the MANY voices dropped into the well –
BLIZZARD, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!
We are STRUGGLING to farm things for ourselves or our guilds because of this plague of multiboxers hoarding the monopoly on nodes in Nazjatar. I’m sure it’s not JUST Nazjatar.
Please help. I don’t have the gold nor want to spend gold on the AH once they put these up. I want to be able to do professions MYSELF and not be forced to watch 90% of the nodes disappear before I even get to them – or worse when I CLICK on them – because of 6, 10, 16 multiboxers grabbing everything in sight. I’ve spotted 3 full groups just within the last 30 minutes.
And this isn’t just a random occurrence. They are there ALL DAY. EVERY DAY. You know the playerbase is hurting because people bring it up a lot. This isn’t fun for anyone but people with 10+ accounts. All your players matter, not just them!
I have a screenshot I can’t post with 16 accounts on ONE node. I would be happy to share it with mods if needbe cuz I thought it wasn’t possible to have that many on one node.

It is just Nazj.
This is a problem not because MBs. It is a problem because Blizzard created a gate behind Zin’s herbs. This expansion the herb system was horribly implemented, first with next to no Anchor nodes spawn, and now with Zin’s being the main herb needed to do anything.
You should only because the reason for Zin’s to be so “low” in price in most markets considering the demand, is because of MBs that are flooding the markets. Take advantage and make a profit.
Better yet, find a MB and get them to CoD their own stash.

It still doesn’t change the fact that multiboxers have been an issue this expansion, both in world pvp and in the economy. Never before have they posed such an obnoxious presence. Something needs to change.

More so than others? Yeah, I have to agree there.

I’ve only seen two or three multiboxers before BfA, but now it’s a daily occurrence. It really is horrible.

I actually, for the first time ever, saw yesterday a 5-Hunter MB in LFR.
He actually topped all 5 positions in DPS. It was bizarre, hilarious, and quite frankly sad.

That’s LFR in a nutshell. Play with your feet and if you know what you are doing you will still win.

I only farm Zin when i need to. When i come across one, i go to different location which have herb tracker and i do fine and you can also screw them up by rotating the spawn points by going backwards as well, it works =)

I use this technique as well.
I am so sick of multiboxers.

I had one experience with a Multiboxer out in the world before BfA. Now, I see at least three a week. And I barely play anymore. Something definitely changed.

Lol you all know you are just inflating they number of multiboxers you see. By the way you all are describing it every other person is a multi boxer. See 1 boxer and inflate that number to 20 these are the same people who buy 30 packs of toilet paper.

Blizzard will probably never change how they view boxers tich used to have a 60+ man boxer named prepared. The guy would straight up wreck cities this was before war mode where you had no choice but he flagged. Know what blizzard did about him? NOTHING they aren’t going to change their minds on how they feel about something cause of forum post. And most multiboxers don’t keep doing it cause it’s a lot of upkeep and can’t keep up with paying for tokens for all the accountz.

i don’t think its entirely unfair i mean they are keeping blizz stocked with a bit of extra $ even more so than me. i don’t always keep 9 accounts active, these people that are serious about it i have seen a few with 10-20 accounts that are always subbed. its good for the game in the long run. easy fix for this sort of thing would be to make more herbs and mining nodes available. faster spawn more of them etc. also make servers their own damned server again.
not every single server needs a high population. and the people that truly hate this multiboxing as well as other things could play on low pop
had a buddy that quit playing him, his wife, and his nephew all had more accounts than i could begin to know what to do with. it was fun rolling with them to do a city raid, they would each use a desktop and a laptop each…start several raid groups, and then all hell breaks loose. the lag was real
Don’t have a problem with people using multiple accounts. The problem is they are allowed to semi automate by using 3rd party programs. Make them tab between windows if they want to box. Not in the spirit of the game to allow one key press to control more than one toon.

not sure if you’re just trolling, (going to assume you are) …because it’s been explained enough times that you don’t need a 3rd party program to multibox.

last time i tuned in on his Twitch channel (2-3 weeks ago) he has shifted over to 'boxing WoW Classic Alterac Valley
I don’t know if this is helpful, but when I see the farmers going for Zin, I just follow them and tap the same nodes that they do. It’s pretty snazzy!
