How to 2 Box in Vanguard Saga of Heroes
This guide covers 2 boxing in Vanguard, Saga of Heroes. This is a follow up guide to How to 2 Box in MMORPGS and if you have not read it yet, you should start there first. This guide will resume where that one left off and try and explain how to control several characters in Vanguard using one keyboard. We ran a group in vanguard from level 1 on to level 50, with no problems using the Control / Boxin Assistant duo. Press a key and the whole group follows, press a key everyone goes into combat, press another and they stop, press a key and the group evacs... Once set up it is a lot of fun to take on the premiere content with just your wife or even by your self. ;)
Vanguard is a very fun game. And most of the players are pretty nice. There just are not that many groups to be had. It is common to stand around looking for a group for a couple of hours at the higher levels. Boxing allowed us to really enjoy that game without having to stand around hoping to get a group when we only had a couple of hours to play to begin with. Also you can use the Control Assistant in Vanguard to multi box on the same PC by controlling the inactive windows but the game is pretty memory intensive so usually a second PC works best.
Now that you have read How to 2 Box in MMORPGS we will take up where it left off. This means that you should already have a network share for our log file set up, The Control Assistant installed and profile created and The Boxin Assistant installed and a profile created. Also you have the basic start, stop, follow and wait commands working through the log file triggers. In this example we are going to play a warrior (Henry) and 2 box a shaman (Jenny) in Vanguard SOH. Of course one of the main advantages of bringing along a shaman is heals so lets start there.
