i bet id like playing a bard . But ya can't bot bards really and for now playing a SK , cleric and chanter is more effective . Never LFG because i got all i need , just pick up lfg people as they come along. I should try and run 4 so my monk doesnt get left behind but i think my PC might have a melt down.....

its not easy to bot 4 chars, especially when 2 of them are melees
i never bot 2 chars on 1 comp (it slows down my comp a lot and my comp isnt a piece of crap)
i usually do laptop + desktop .. beastlord + druid combo is sweet in many different playstyles heh

I'm playing 6. I usually eqw 3. so 2 per machine.
Sometimes I do play each one per machine tho.
I have war/cleric/enchanter/shaman/wiz/bard.
Bard just stands and plays manasong. When I remember or have npc slow under control. I move the bard into melee.
Playing multi isn't too hard, as long you know the area you are in. And it's controlled.

i used to play 4 for lodi ( wiz , cleric , rogue warrior ) but then i used 2 computers . two on each for a while but i ended up likeing three on one and one on the other . Just because switching keyboards is a pain in the ass .
Right now i have no lag at all running three on this PC (P4 2.4 , gforce FX and 512 RDram. nothing great) but when i reinstalled i didnt install the new textures that came with SoL, i have all models off , clipping about half way down and spell effects off. I think the ram will stop me from running 4 though . guess ill find out later.
adding a monk seems like it would be hard though......

I'm using very fast machines, alot of memory. but I have models on, clipping max. 0% lag. follow works very well.
I changed the switch key to ` . pressing default keys sucked.
I've ran 4 on one the machines, but I didn't like it.

that's easily amended though, by stopping your conversation *clicking in the chat window* twisting, and then clicking on the chat bar...
it's tough, but it's a bards life =/

I used to play three all the time....war, cleric, and chanter. That was a little nutz at times when a big pull happened. Trying to heal party members and keep the badies mezzed was a b***h sometimes. Best way i found using only two machines was havign the cleric and warrior on one machine and the chanter on the other. I tried having the cleric and chanter on the same machine, but to many deaths from not being able to switch fast enough.

i found that i lag hella lot with 3 in pop, but anything before that 3 is pritty decent, seems to get laggy with each new expansion =D. i dont use models for that reasons (still using old school looks =/ ). but i dont have a small problem sometimes, while loading 2 just fine, sometimes loading a 3rd i get the error message sayin i need to close eqw (the 3rd window) and to get around this have to restart the computer, very time consuming when i try to xp before work.
any thoughts? i prolly the only one this happens to lol.

Tin, question i've been meaning to ask you. What the heck is attached to your avatars face, they look like something out of a Whitewolf book.
*edit* nevermind, see it now
