Please let me know if any aspect of this guide is confusing or insufficient: I’d be very happy to improve it further. In this guide, we’ll go through and demonstrate a control set-up that can enable you to 2-box the game.Īs a little glimpse of the future, proof of concept or reference for later, below is a commentated example of me running a multi-box team through an early-ish adventure in the game on the first tier of the highest difficulty. It has a comparatively small but loyal following and is still regularly updated: as of the time of writing, the game literally received a new expansion pack only a couple of days ago!ĭDO has gone largely unappreciated by the multi-boxing community at large because it is an exceptionally difficult game to multi-box: it does not have a follow function, and there’s no easy way to get around that. It has survived for this long for two reasons: first, it was one of the first MMOs to join the free-to-play revolution of the late 00’s and, second, it is a complete oddity in it’s class, an “action MMO” from a time where such games didn’t exist that quietly embraced a different set of conventions to the rest of the genre. This compendium is intended to be a one-stop guide for how to set up and run a 2-box multi-boxing set up for Dungeons and Dragons Online.ĭungeons and Dragons Online (DDO) is a long running MMO that is inspired by 3.5 edition D&D.
