I dual log a ranger and druid... roots, longshot, and bolas ftw.

The hardest thing I found about dual logging is figuring out how to run with both characters on two devices. What i do is:
- Put both devices on a flat surface, one above the other
- use my left index finger to control the joystick on the top device. Don't go right or left with it, just press up
- use my left thumb to control the joystick on my bottom device. Don't go right or left with it, just press up
- use my right hand to adjust the camera direction on both devices so that the character runs in that direction.

It's going to be hard for you though with an ipad and an iphone. i seem to be able to do this best with I'm using devices that are similar in size. i also prefer to use smaller devices such as iphones and ipods. Yes, you can see things better on the ipad, but your fingers have to travel a longer distance to tap things. it makes dual logging harder for me with my ipad mini.

Moving is easy. If you ever have to go longish distances just have one character try to cast a skil on the other, then keep the other character to far away from them so they have to get closer to cast it. Then fly on the character that is getting the skill cast on it to wherever u need to go.

That is another way to do it, but I prefer my way because I have greater control over where my characters go. I challenge you to use your way to get through the sewers :lol:

I have found that the top two class combos are Druid/Rogue and a Warrior/Ranger. Since its easier to do a Druid/Rogue combo, which I use, I will explain that: use your most stable device for the rogue (In my case an iPad 2), and your oldest device for the Druid (iPhone 3GS).

The prime playing position is while laying down on your stomach, and place the DPS device above the Healer.

To move both chars simultaneously, it is good to have the rogue run ahead, have the druid cast bandage wounds, and have the rogue keep running so the Druid follows him trying to get in skill casting range.

While killing bosses, focus mainly on the healer device. The rogue is fine to sit there autoing, but in most cases when he dies your druid is screwed and a big mess happens. After a little bit you will be able to play both chars simultaneously, but in the beginning it's best to keep as much attention on the druid as you can, while casting skills on the rogue if everything on the health front looks good.

I wish you the best of luck, and hope you enjoy the duodevicing life. If you have any questions, asking here or pming me are the best ways to reach me :)

Druid (root/heal) and mage (dps/energy) is a nice combo as well.
