Just like many other massively multiplayer online role playing games, having a second or even a third account can have its great benefit in accomplishing small tasks, questing, and many other benefits.
If you own a very fast computer such as a duo core 2.4 GHZ with 2 GB of ram and a really nice video card, you can probably duo log an additional Warhammer Online account at the same time. By running two or more accounts you can have many benefits at your side. You are able to tackle down quests that are a little more difficult for solo, take down harder mobs, farm more gold, and even swap around different characters to play when you are bored with one.
There are a few types of classes that can be mixed as 2 to create a really strong team. To break things down, the most common classes of any MMORPG includes a heavy tank, a healer type of course, the range damage dealer such as a caster or archer, a melee damage dealer, a support class with crowd control abilities, minor heal abilities or buffs and usually the least wanted class are the sneaks such as a stealther type. The most commonly build up of a duo usually pairs with a healer / support with a tank, melee or a range damage dealer.
Every group, whether it’s a group of 2, 5 or whatever numbers it may be it requires a healer or a support class. The healer is more or less the heart of the group and should be kept alive at all times. If your healer is dead, you are more or less going to go down as well. Secondly you would of course need to deal damage; tank, melee or caster dps would do just fine depending on the situation and what your plans are.
Playing 2 accounts is rather much easier than you would probably think it is. It is ideal to set up both clients on windows mode and have a very comfortable key setup. The “follow” command is your best friend. That will be first and most important command you will need to move 2 different characters around. My 2 most favorite combinations include a tank with a healer and a caster with a support class. I sometimes even mix tank with a caster as well. A caster with support combo can take down large piles of mobs faster but tank with a healer can take out much higher level mobs, usually good for bosses or special encounters. For an even faster killing you can go with double damage dealers.
Leveling 2 characters at the same time isn’t much slower than leveling 1 alone. Sometimes you can even level faster on certain games and situations. Another major benefit is if you are out in a RvR group, you have the many classes available to fill what your group needs. Sometimes your group may only have 1 spot left and they need a specific class to fill that spot. Running multiple accounts, you have the variety of options available. If you can afford an additional $10 to $15 a month, I would surely invest my money into that second account. If you want to play different classes, you can level 2 at the same time instead of leveling a new 1 over and over again. Keep in mind, with 2 different accounts, you can farm Warhammer gold much faster and sell those gold to other players to cover your account fees.
