Entering outlands with RAF

[David]

No idea if it has been asked before, bet it was but I can`t find anything on it.

Simple question. If I go in the outlands at lvl58, will I still get triple xp there untill lvl60?

[blast3r]

Yes

One warning that should be listed - if you go into outlands at 58 while multiboxing theres no way you can hit 70 doing quests unless you do all the collection quests which are extremely painful. EPL is soooo easy to level with RAF I'd recommend doing that first and getting all the way to 60 and then go to outlands. Otherwise you will have to run probably 40+ instances to hit 70 in addition to the quests.

Thanks for the quick one :-)

I wanted to stay in Azeroth as long as possible but I hate the place lol.

Another questionif I may.
I can gift up a druid to 60.
Any use taking him with 4x shamans? Guess best as a restokin spec. Might even be able to do instances I guess.

I haven't tried it but I hear its not all that great synergy compared to a real tank or just a 5th shaman. A 5th shaman would probably be better as elemental with healing powers, or even resto with some elemental talents just because you get the 5th totem, chain heal, a shield, etc.

I can gift up a warlock, druid or shaman to 60 so I do have a choice. But I`m confused atm lol. No idea what to choose. 20 totems is nice lol, but I believe I will drop the fifth shaman at 70. Because I have a warrior waiting there and because arena isn`t any good with 5 shamans lol. It`s more av fun tho.

Another tip. Find a really big xp quest (some of the wpl ones I used were 11,000) and grind out to 99.9% of level and then hand the quest in. You will get a boost of the full 33,000 xp. Of course I don't mean grind the whole level, just don't hand it in at 96% because you are wasting that boost. And that boost could replace two gathering quests in outlands, so it's worth it.

I allways assumed that a seperate played healer was better for 5v5.

Another question, the free level giving, can it only be performed by the char that has been leveled or by any char on the account?

[Hachoo]

Only from the character that did the leveling, and only to characters on a parent linked account.

[David]

I just thought of something, I cannot go to the outlands at 58 if I want to have a fifth character in the team. Since I have to gift up one char on my main account, then transfer one char to a fifth account. Since 2 of the chars I`m using are on the same account then. Once I do that I`m playing 5 chars of which one is not linked, so no bonus. I cannot grand him to 60 allready because the character granting levels is only 58.

Guess I have to stay in azeroth untill 60. Well only 7 more levels :-)
Hope it goes even faster with burning steppes, EPL and WPS quests.

When the next patch comes out there is supposed to be a 30% decrease in XP required to level so that may not be the case in the future.
