Knowledge and hot keys can turn anyone into an expert reguardless of gear.
While you are totally right about the stress of multi-boxing Angelox, I personally ran 3 characters (comp A 2 boxes and comp B with the 3rd) for over three years on eq live with just simply making good hot keys, knowing my classes (cleric, mage, enchanter) inside and out, and learning incounters well enough. I was never in a raiding guild or even Tier2+ PoP flagged, but I could still take down all the mobs required to do the cleric 1.0 epic (and yes that includes the sarnak king), kill the Fabled Fungus King in old seb, and drop Grieg with just my 3. Stress during events like that was insane, and those that saw me do it in person never thought such a thing was possible at the time with my gear and limited spell repitoir since I didn't raid, but it can be done.
