question about starting two poe clients

Hello I have a question about starting two poe clients I have read a lot about it and read that it is allowed to put intro the map to get higher quant multiplier and as a buffer for auras but I would be more interested if I could put a necromancer in game to get more auras and if there is a higher chance that you will be banned by the minions because they move and attack automatically to get the most auras you have to build in a few minions intro your build don't want to risk my account for it

so my idea was making a necromancer and build him like a necromancer
with like this spectres

Perfect Primal Thunderbird
Perfect Spirit of Fortune
Perfect Blood Demon
Perfect Pain Artist
Perfect Naval Officer
+ AG
+ the necromancer he have also some useful auras

Whether this would result in a ban would depend entirely on how you interact with the two clients.

If you broadcast e.g. mouse clicks to both clients, GGG will interpret that as gameplay automation / botting (they don't really distinguish between the two, tbqh) and it could absolutely result in permanent account closure. If you're constantly alt-tabbing between the two, that's fine.





I would just gently make the point that almost nobody actually does this. It is a massive time investment for a distinctly slow and clunky experience. It's not really worth it.

simply place it on the blight map near the pump
only the auto stuff what the game will hand out
like automation support with convocation and a cast when dmg take setup for auto bone offering

no mirroring mouseclick or keyboard click just boost the quant + auras
but is minions not a sort of auto attacking and could be counting too as something like abusing the system ?
Here's a good rule of thumb - forget that the 'active' character's client exists. If you suddenly needed to use the toilet, or see who was ringing your doorbell, and you forgot to pause the game - what would happen? If you're playing one character actively and the other is entirely AFK-esque in its conduct, then you're golden. But if what the support character is doing diverges from what would happen while you weren't at the computer, then you have a problem.

Minion AI is server-side and not judged to be an indicator of what you are (or aren't) doing. Well, provided you aren't specifically interacting with minion AI, e.g. with Predator Support's Signal Prey ability. Even if you are - so long as you alt-tab to do it, that is completely fine.

GGG don't have any multiboxing-specific rules or policies. They will view it entirely through the lens of "is this person (essentially) just botting?" Nothing you say would cause them to decide that you are.

I'm going to be honest - Path of Exile is a very fast-paced game and the goal would be to have a sufficiently powerful character that this clunkiness just isn't at all worth it. GGG are likely opposed to this being a good idea - they certainly don't want people to feel like they "should" be doing it - but they don't really mind people finding niche uses for things (and tbqh, they're only too happy for people to be inefficient with their time - they're big on player agency and our choices mattering).

Forgive the self-promotion - but I did post [Guide] What a macro is allowed to do in Path of Exile and it is essentially one large collection of GGG's various statements on macros over the years. A lot of it will be relevant - and if you read it, it will both give you certain guardrails (e.g. no timers!), and it might also help to give you more confidence. I am extremely proud of that thread.

Also - remember that you are permitted to run only two clients on any one machine.

So if you were to hypothetically start running around with multiple support characters, that could result in a Terms of Service violation-based permanent account closure.

we are normal 4 person and add another quant multi to the blight map and boost some dmg out of the support character would be great

That is not correct; it doesn't matter which client(s) you use.

The rule applies to the cumulative total.

Hi, let me offer some clarification around multiple clients for you:

Essentially, the rule is, as you mentioned, no more than 2 clients can be run at the same time on one computer. So, if you run 2 clients on your desktop and each laptop, you should be fine.

If you load a virtual machine on a computer, any clients running on that virtual machine still counts towards the client limit.

Finally, all inputs must be manual, meaning that you cannot simply mirror inputs, and you must enter the map specifically with each individual character.

A good reference post on Reddit can be found here (although, it seems you have perhaps found this post yourself): https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1wkyy3/discussion_ggg_can_we_get_some_transparency/cf31wrz/
