Sooooo... I was just wondering how this works. *Im not talking about selling FCC spots*
You make the squad in lvl rage of your main then clean till exp room?
At Exp Room:
Multiclienting? If so how do you pull/heal?
If switching to alt.. then?

Please.. enlight me XD How do you do that? :)

    if your alts cant kill mobs then your mains kill the mobs and your alts kill heads... and when you can kill the mobs then you do heads and mobs with your alts... i dont know what you really dont understand...

    Im talking about doing this with a squad.
    As you said Mains will kill mobs and Alts will kill heads.
    Is it possible to kill the mobs in Exp Room too? I mat didnt explain this too well sorry :)

    I don't do this, because I think that leveling in Frost before 7x is stupid. But, lets say you have 4 alts, an OP sin, a seeker, and a cleric. Clear frost up to big room with your sin. Invite the 4 alts, have them run to big room. Start the boss and to be safe, around 200k hp, start hypers on alts. Kill the boss, alts get the xp. Pause hypers. Invite cleric, drop sin, invite seeker. Get seeker and cleric to big room, have cleric set up BB near the NPC for heads. Start hypers. Use seeker to pull the room, careful to avoid coming near BB so cleric doesn't take heal aggro and get wtfpwnd by the mobs. When you have full pull run towards cleric, alpha male right before hitting BB so you have aggro, then use that vortex aoe skill seekers have. Mobs die, alts get xp. Get heads quest with seeker and cleric, and have seeker set up vortex where heads appear. He's/She's sure to catch some heads in the aoe, maybe even 3-4 at a time if set up in the right place. Use cleric to snipe heads as well. Alts get xp. (I don't know if you can get heads quest as an alt below 8x but if you can, get it, you might lose some heads but probably not too many)

    Having the elementclient NOT freeze upon inactive window would help out a lot because you could see what was going on in your other client(s).

    Disclaimer: I don't endorse this because multiclienting 6 accounts at once is stupid illegal as far as the multiclienting rules goes. This was just an example of how it could be done. There are probably other ways too.

    if you did it with only 5 ppl then you can have a main (cleric) drop squad to heal (individual heals)... then with your alts kill as many as you can in 1 min and reivite the cleric before they get kicked... then kick them from squad again and kill more mobs... ect... you will have 1 person on a multiclient with a main and alt... most ppl will just say **** this and get a full squad of 6 then clear and kill the mobs... then let thier alts have heads... moslty b/c it take time and it will **** a set of hypers... if they want more exp they will just run a new fc again...

    Having 6 element clients open also severely reduces FPS, increases lag, and makes the game more irritating to play.

    My wife and I have 3 working laptops (4 at one time) and 2 desktops. With the new rules we only need our 2 desktops and 1 laptop.

    We buff either my sin or her BM (esp in my case if the char is on the same acct as my sin, there are many), since one of those usually solo's thru the FF, while the other on the first run (lvl 1) goes thru normal mobs to attain levels. It's not efficient to just have a lvl 1 start at the big room because capped XP on non [?] mobs will be harsher and limit the levels one gets for a solo run. So I bring a lvl 1 along for the first sets of mobs, to the first boss, no hypers or xp modifiers, and later hyper the elementos+shocktrooper to get to around lvl 16-22. From then on I have the buffers wait at the port area that follows messenger, while my sin solo's the other bosses for big room (if I get lag or unlucky with sparks to evade Dread's purge come back for buffs after he's dead). From there, move everyone out of the way, solo Styren w/hypers for styren and keeping 2 drags alive til the end, then immediately run to shade b4 big room, keep hyper going, kill the mobs in big room, kill 1 mid harpy, kill boss, take quest, kill heads. Then solo run it through Fragrance (I time my sparks every other debuff, one debuff won't do too much to my sin but soon as she gets hit with the next curse it hurts significantly more), nix, and the rest, starting off 9 drags, 3 groups of ladies, 6 drags, then last Holeen's.

    This is for a brand new character. For one that might be in the 40s-60s I would test out their damage versus other mobs having demon rez handy, to see how much they hit a lvl 88/89 mob for, as well as keep a quake genie with max quake handy in case you have a character like mystic (w/o pet aoe skill) or veno which is bad with AOE's on those. If it is comfortably above 100 dmg, I will solo the heads with the noob character, having high lvl take quest and relog or just run up the ramp to the end. At the lower levels soloing heads glitches XP like bosses, and shows more SP than XP, which is a good thing because it means you're probably getting over 45k per.

    I probably misunderstood the OP's intentions. But in an instance, if I drop them all to minimal graphics, 6 clients open wouldn't phase me. I used to do it on a different game on a crappy laptop all the time.
