Kind of an odd idea, I wanted to get some feedback before I actually put some time into this. Here is the basic premise. Using a second computer, and a second account, and a second keyboardI'm going to take my second character hunting with me using macros and another keyboard. I don't have room for a second monitor on my desk, and frankly I don't want to be looking at 2 monitors. the whole point is to control the second character completely via 1 button macros. I may rig my keyboard to connect to both computers, and map the number pad for macros that the first character wont have, but thats just a thought.


The question remains, what do I want fighting by my side? Needs to be easy to use, useful, and viable in the field.


1. Doctor/Musician = no clarification needed

2. Combat Medic/ Smuggler - poison, poison, poison, feign death. Heal mind if things get bad.

3. Ranger/Rifleman - could setup auto harvest macros, find certain prey (would need to check another monitor for that. or get a KVM switch, i've got a few lying around.) also could add some good damage in the long battles. would need to toss taunt into the mix to keep crazy elders from incapping my sidekick.

4. Politician/architect - no wait.. thats what I already have and it's no fun, so I came up with this idea.


Anywho, thoughts? suggestions? personal experiences? Insults? put them here V

hehe.. If done properly I should just have to push a few buttons =) but I kinda didn't want a crafting character, becuase while thats usefull at home, i'm tired of having a mule character just sit around and collect dust. I can always buy foods. What want is a doppleganger. I had contemplated the Idea of building an identical swordsman, and naming her Bloop. and getting mathching yet opposite armor & clothing.


Other ideas that I had are


Master creature handler - for pets that stun/dizzy/intimidate/posture down. when fighting one vs. one, the only thing I have to worry about are area attacks. If i can get pets with ranged specials and keep them at the right range that would be very useful.


Bounty hunter/suggler - So I can hunt Jedi. then just have my alt FD while blip goes to town. not really fair or honest, so I may not do this.

I would say doctor is a most. Buff your self and heal your self, Maybe doctor and cm mind heal and enough for some mind poison c's.


That way you can make the ulitmate tanking duo. Have your main tank and you alt sit back healing states and mind.

It would be easy to do. Have a macro like "/target "whoever you are" /healdamage"
another with "\target "you" /healstate intimdate; /healstate stun; /healstate blind"
and another with a mind heal, and another with first aid. Also one with /heal poison, and /heal diease.

Nothing could stop you.
