If you could bring someone and have full control over all their heroes skills, what kind of dream teams would be your ideal teams.

I don't really want this to be geared at anything in particular. But just you know, general places could be anything from hard mode areas to regular uw/fow to whatever dungeon you want etc.

I just want to hear what your guy's dream team setup of 6 heroes would be for whatever task you'd have to face.

Dunno, maybe something like 3 MN/RI. A BHA ranger, minion bomber rt/n, MS/DB sin, Imbagon. Including myself of course, maybe change eles to SF because they don't use mind blast well. Change sin for dslash or something and a SS/anti-melee/healer necro if I'm not on para.

Interesting approach, with two systems one can have the disabled team member cast Balth Spirit or Succor or Life Bond on a few others and make him follow once in a while (use selfheal). And you get the drops.

Can you run multiple instances of GW on one machine?

Can you run multiple instances of GW on one machine? Yep, i run three instances of GW on one PC at the same time, mostly to manage storage but also to run through missions and HFFF for fast cash. There used to be a guide multiple GW installations on GWG, but it appears to have disappeared...

Only problem when running two or more player characters concurrently is you can only really focus on one at a time in HM. Running missions in NM is usually not a problem. While you could make the 'away' player a bonder, you constantly need to flag that player's heroes to keep up with the 'live' player or they just return to the 'away' player. You also need to stay within radar range of the 'live' player, or all bonds will break.

For that reason, i log one player out because they don't contribute much more than providing the heroes. The heroes then follow you as a henchie would.

Hmm lets see

1 Warrior with Dragon Slash, Brawling Headbutt, Steelfang Slash, and SY!
7 Rit/Mo's with Spirit Rift, Ancestor's Rage, Offering of Spirit, hex removal, condition removal, and heals.

7x spirit rift spikes + Ancestor's Rage ending every second on the Warrior = pwnt


or

1 imbagon
1 motivation Paragon with TNtF
3x stunning strike/command Paragons
1 cruel spear Paragon
1 orders/heal Dervish
1 splinter/ancestor's/heal Rit

imbagon
P/Mo command support/hex removal
P/Mo motivation/hex removal
N/Rt JAgged battery
N/Mo RC
N/Rt splinter/ancestor's and SS
R/Me BHA/epidemic
D/N orders


this would make me happy. a little overkill on te defense, maybe trade out the RC and the splinter/curses for a vengeful/channeling and full out curses.
