Concerning 2 accountsFollow

#1 Jun 25 2008 at 5:31 AM Rating: Decent
Hello everyone.

I'm an old classic DAoC player that just came back to the game since shortly after ToA.

I was thinking on getting a second account for once since everyone else seems to be doing it in this game .

My question is to those who know how this works. Will it run better if i install the game twice on separate drives, or can I just run the one client but logged on twice.

I use 1 pc btw and quick alt tab to alternate between my toons.


Thanks in advance!

I think it depends on how powerful your computer is. It is possible to run one client but be logged into two accounts!

If you have a decent (does not have to be great) computer, you can easily run two accounts on one client.

Usually, one will just be a bot account, or can always do two while PvEing. The only time you would need a better computer is if you plan on running both in RvR together (like having a bot tag along with you for DI or something).

Thanks a lot fellas I have it running super good.

Only drawback I've seen is whenever i try to stick my bot in main mularn or vasu, everywhere else it's 0 lag and sticks very well.

Soon as exit Jord either west or north my bot just slingshots behind me until I just exit the main township, then it's back to sticking perfect.

Glad you got it working, and yes, lag can be frustrating with bots!!

works best if you put second instance on second drive.

Even if both on same drive you do want two seperate complete copies of the game and run each account from its own copy.
