There was a built in version in vanilla.
The only thing that changed was how you created and interacted with it.
And arguing about that interaction not being in vanilla is moot because they are using the same interactions for all the other targeting variables in classic that were added by the TBC changes.
Everyone has the same chance to pay! Even more so now they could just play on retail to buy a tokens!
Just the same as multiboxers, its a different play style and if you ever tried it you would understand that point of view.
Your point of view seems to me similar to the view that, You shouldn’t be able use rank 14 items outside of pvp because i don’t have the time to grind rank 14, not everyone can get it so they shouldn’t be allowed because they are so much better then greens they give a distinct advantage.
You add nothing of value to this topic, and are a low tier troll.
Not everyone at all. Some people have no extra room in their budget. I personally could pay for tons of accounts but I don’t as a moral choice. By all means keep multi-boxing, just don’t lie to yourself and say it’s fair or not cheating.
You don’t even have to pay for accounts anymore there wow token goes both ways. I respect that you only want to pay for 1 account and play with only 1 at a time, however to say that someone controlling 5 accounts has a advantage over 5 separate equally skilled players on 5 accounts is def not a thing. The old saying 2 heads are better then one comes to play. Now if its 5v1 whether your fighting one player on 5 accounts or 5 different players, yes your more then likely boned!
This topic has no value. It is pretty much the base of value, with everything above having value. I would go so far as to state that it has NEGATIVE value. It amounts to “will no longer pay to win, if you do not make allowances so I can pay to win”.
Who are these people multi-boxing for pvp? We all know it’s for in game economic gains.
More ignorance in not understanding the thread at all. Reading comprehension level 0.
ether way its the same, they have 5 mouths to feed or they get rocked in pvp, no different. the entry level into economic gains for a solo play 5 man team is a lot bigger then it is for a single player, geared they would have a higher potential for gold gain then a single played char for sure, however 5 equally geared solo played char in pve economic gains will be about the same split 5 ways is the same as a 5 account playing the same spot, except maybe how they decide to divvy up the gold. no different amount of gold drops tho just cuz ur on more accounts.
Just took a peek at your post history. Nice gimmick you’ve got.
I see what you’re saying and I agree that it does take a while to ramp up. I think you’ll agree that there are distinct advantages however or else people wouldn’t pay to do it. I don’t even have a huge issue with the people that deside to multi-box, but I also wouldn’t at all mind if it was banned.
stalker much?
Bit creepy there bud, yikes.
I agree its a fun and way different play style. And you always play with the same idiots, instead of new idiots. more control on who gets what, that type of thing.
When I played or play with 5 close friends it was no different. I felt I got more gold with less effort actually. If it was only about gold, there is a lot easier ways to get gold then multiboxing and paying 52 bucks extra per month if u pay 12.99 per extra 4 accounts. Truthfully Just play the ah well and you don’t need to pay if its only about gold.

You’re the goat mate
That’ll be 12.36$ please pull ahead for your mctasty.
You can sum up this thread with rational people saying:
/Focus was added in TBC, it has no place in vanilla…
Followed by the thread spamming OP, and a token low post/achievement account guy who is probably also the OP, just on one of his minion accounts, trying to point out that there was an API-Exploit work around in vanilla that provided that functionality in a round about way and that they feel overwhelmingly entitlted to it, so they can continue exploiting the game while multi boxxing…
Despite the fact that the /focus frame as it existed in TBC was apparently specifically singled out and disabled for the classic client.
Despite the fact that Blizzard repeatedly said they where going to limit the API specifically because the vanilla era gave too much freedom
Despite the fact that numerous other things where possible in vanilla that are (rightly so) not coming back with Classic, like Warlock Kick/dispel botting pets and auto healing spell downranking based on target’s missing HP.
and Despite the fact that they clearly haven’t considered the larger implications the addition of a baseline /focus functionality has on the game itself and the potential problems it can create… Rogues being able to blind a target without dropping CP from swapping targets wasn’t a vanilla thing, for example… but would be with a functional focus (and I haven’t yet gotten my beta rogue to that point, but I’ve heard mouseover macroing blind also is also getting around that limitation on beta, and should be nerfed)… Beyond the rogue, combat and pvp in general for all classes are potentially drastically different from authentic vanilla, when a focus is handed out to everyone.
Like most of the overly entitled people on these forums, they remain completely incapable of thinking beyond themselves, and their own stupid and petty desires to look at the larger impacts what they request actually brings about.
Hey… This guy gets it.
I see what the OP did here. Very clever. I do agree with Apocalypse here. Blizzard doesn’t want to repeat the freedom of “one-shot” macros in Vanilla. Fesz is correct that Blizzard knew there were going to be some trade-offs using the modern infrastructure, but it trying to deliver as close to a vanilla experience as humanly possible. More people will complain about this since the CC’ing, healing, counter-spell, etc that they had in Vanilla using the Focus ID mechanic is not possible. I don’t think this was a mindless oversight by Blizzard. I think this is a deliberate change. Anyway, I hope Blizzard chimes in on this… Which is what OP wanted in the first place.
