Okay, here's the deal. I am attempting to multibox for the very first time.

I'm starting off small, just boxing two wizards for now. I am planning on running Archon for fun, but I'm just testing things out at the moment.

Currently I'm having some issues with getting one wizard to do something when out of Archon (if Blizzard fixes the "after kill" mechanics in group play, this wouldn't be an issue).

Anyway, the stream is here: http://www.twitch.tv/jaetch

Come laugh at my misery when one of my wizards die.

Also, the second wizard doesn't yet have gloves or bracers since I plan on crafting those for her.

To fulfill my dream of one day running 4 Archons.

I accidentally made it .com instead of .tv, fixed.

Yay!

Hm, I was always under the impression that you had a slower PC Jaetch. Are you running 2 now?

Nope, it's all on a single computer, single monitor. It's so hard to see the loot on my second wizard...

Stopped it for now. My main wizard kills everything and my second wizard's Archon wears off so fast.

OKay... I think I got the gist of things.  Gonna start streaming again, this time in an effort to power level my third wizard to 60.

Ha, yeah, I toned it down to like 240p yesterday because I didn't know how well my CPU would respond. Now I'm running it at 720p.

I have a dumb question - beyond trying to bribe you with 200g to level my toon for me!

How are you *legally* getting the other wizards to follow the #1 badass?

EDIT
720p is so much better.  Last night was pretty hard to watch!

If you see the two screens under the main one, wherever I click on the main screen, everything in the other screens follow. I technically have three Diablo III executables running simultaneously.

(Forget what I said here)

In short, yes, you need additional accounts. Entire accounts.
