Big Bubbles :
I have to reply to this thread since I have done many runs with two toons. The only reason I EVER take 2 toons in for a Boss fight is if we need the extra toon for the cog rounds. If I do not have at least one SF in there I make sure I will have one of my kids (who are quite good at both craning and pieing) is available to help at least at those times. I prefer them to help with the whole thing, but that is not always possible so I will usually do cog rounds by myself. I am no spring chicken and the mental power needed to concentrate on playing 2 toons at one boss battle is very taxing. bonk If I ever have run 2 toons thru the whole thing, then in the VP the toon jumps in the back and in the CFO, the toon stands way in the back of a craner. I my self have gone sad on 2 occasions doing this, but noone else has. I could care less if my toon goes sad (it's only JB). By concentrating on one toon, however, I can contribute fully on that toon. Also, the cases when I have used this is in VP when we had lower laff toons (frequently ubers) who needed the bigger toons to help them survive the cog rounds and in the CFO I usually do only if we have toons who seem to feel better loading with the extra toon. If anyone would rather I not do this I fully understand and they are free to tell me, however, by doing this I have allowed many runs to actually take place that otherwise would not have.


Yup, I agree. I think this is what Nunya was trying to say. There is nothing wrong with bringing them to help when needed. The problem would come in if folks were bringing them to CCG runs on a regular basis to run them both. We all know that there are a lot of toons out there who do not feel comfortable with an elevator shy of 7-8 toons. Having another toon to fill in in these situations is completely understandable in my mind. As is the running them with ubers, each additional toon during the cog round helps.
