NM hunting - Dual boxing 2 characters on an NM like Lizzy or Spiny Spipi increases your cover by over double. One person being able to see two completely different spots of an NM's spawn area and the ability for both to patrol 2 large spots gives an unfair advantage over the solo player hunting the NM, it's similar to a teleport hack in effectiveness. One player should be able to do or cover what one player is designed to do, that's classic FFXI and in this state it's unfair. It cannot be argued that using 2 keyboards or alt tabbing does NOT give you an advantage, This is untrue.
This diminishes the experience of others and gives an unfair advantage with minimal work. It hurts the other players around you.
The people that have had the most success hunting NMs are not using two characters to cover a larger portion of the spawn area. at least in any real sense. Some might keep another character around to mule an item if necessary, but trying to control two characters to claim the NM would be stupid.
VE is an easy example, and a very visible one - if you ever watched Rekuza when he was streaming his VE camping, yeah, he had an alt out there. But out of hundreds of VE claims, basically all of them came on his THF.
There are a million other tricks you can learn about how NMs work on Nasomi that give you an exponentially better chance at claiming NMs than dual boxing.
