IRL - New to MQ2 / MQNext :) (1 Viewer)

[kaireny]

Hi all,

I'm a returning player. I used to play on Lanys T'Vyl (from 2000 to 2003 i think, then i moved to a european server when they came out to be able to raid at a friendly time frame instead of midnight to 7AM my time..)

I want to come back to the game with multi boxing. I started to read some stuff about MQ2 and I'm looking forward to giving it a go.

The community here seems really active and i may bother you sometimes with questions

Have fun,
Kair

Getting Started / Returning user

Welcome to RedGuides, fellow EQ multi-boxing enthusiast!

The best place to begin is our "New User Guide" video series, click this TV to watch:


This step-by-step series will teach absolute beginners how to control 6 characters at once while highlighting Nav, AutoLogin, and DanNet, which are fundamental plugins that will enhance every aspect of your game.

Welcome back ot EQ and welcome to MQ and RG! we are happy to see you, check out the handy vid sic linked (and also remember his sig for fast helpful links). The game has changed, and has stayed the same, but overall its still fun and MQ makes it better. Go slow, watch the vids, read the comments and FAQ's and come here or the discord to ask questions. It is a ton of info to catch up to game and then get MQ, little steps, will keep your blood pressure low.

Again welcome back, and dont be afraid to ask questions!

Welcome to RG and welcome back if you're a returning player!

Always start here RG Video

Watch the vids Sic has created as they are your greatest source of information. I would even recommend watching them twice. Toon Movement - AutoGroup/AutoAccept/MQ2Yes - Basic Overview

Once you have an idea of how things work, you'll want to look into some automation options. Check out Kissassist Beginners Guide, Kissassist Commands , RGmercs, and especially cwtn plugins ( you can also /testcopy your toons and use the cwtn plugins there for free and you'll want to spend some time looking at CWTN Plugins Explained.).

I suggest getting your feet wet slowly and be patient as it takes time to absorb all this information. Try taking your toons somewhere safe and lower level at first and explore the automation options. It takes some time to get used to, so don't be surprised it if feels overwhelming at first.

Once you feel like your're getting the hang of it (or to get a more in depth idea of what this site can do), then check out the plugins, macros, and lua's available to complement your automation. Things like MQ2pluginmanager, buttonmaster, mq2autogroup, MQ2Autoaccept, MQ2Status, GuildClicky, Boxhud, MQ2Buffme , and more. You'll also want to see Lua event manager.

How do you get to see and experience all of this you ask? You need to be a level 2 member. To do that you have 2 options. First, you can subscribe (paid method) or second, you can use Red Cents. What the heck is a Red Cent you ask? Red Cents can you help with your subscription and it's the currency this site uses. Contribute helpful information (post here) and others will give you red cents and each red cent you give others returns one to you. check it out! Red Cents

Lots of info and a super helpful community here to help when you get stuck.
