Hello everyone,
Im just starting to two box right now. I have two questions. First - Which is better to level just two characters with RAF? Running them through instances with a level 70 or questing by themselves? (P.S. My first two box is a war/preist setup). My second question is, and if this is the best way, running them through instences, which 70 would work better, a warlock or rogue? I know the lock has AoE, but im thinking for later on instances the rogue might work our better because one cast of AoE might not be enough. Also i think it worth it to note the Warlock is PvP BG geared and the Rogue is Kara and PvP Arena and BG geared.
Thanks for any help ahead of time

If you only have one RAF account, meaning you have the original account, plus a new account, then the best thing for you to do would be to level up two toons together. if you want to run one through instances, note that they must be within 4 levels of each other to get any 3x exp bonus. you will not get any bonuses for running your 70 through an instance with them unless.. well never.
now, if you have two lowbies and asked a friend to run you through some instances, then there will be bonuses because, again, the linked accounts are lowbies, both within 4 levels of each other.
with that said, neither your lock nor your rogue will be helpful unless.... your RAF a new account, and use that new account to RAF another new account. this will give you three accounts total. if use your 70 to run your two new lowbies (lowbie liked to lowbie at least) they will get the 3x bonus. if you do it this way, then i can answer the second question.
you can probably run them with your warlock, depending on spec, through SM/Ulda with Affliction, and with Demonology, you can probably get to Sunken Temple. With PvP gear, you might be able to try the level 60 instances as demon spec with felguard out.
as for the rogue, im not sure. my guess would be close to that of the warlock, but since you have no ability to replenish health like the warlock does, i dont see this progressing as far as the warlock. i would suggest a pally or a druid. but those arent on your list. =/

Sorry i should clarify. I have 3 accounts, 70 Ally Rogue on one, 70 Horde Lock on the other, then i created two RAF accounts connected to each 70 account. I can only play 3 accounts at a time, so two will be lowbies, and the 3rd will either the Lock or Rogue. I have already tested it out, the lowbies the all the RAF bonuses togeather. Im just trying to find the quickest way to level up the two lowbies (war and preist) weather its running them through instances with either a Lock or Rogue, or just questing with only the two new guys. As before, any suggestions would be great
Thanks again.
EDIT: Also note since one of the new chars is a preist, I could technically replenish the Rogues health somewhat. He has about 9.7k Health.

if you didn't want to quest i'd prob say go with the lock - I have seen some voidwalker / seeds of corruption aoe'ing that though isn't on par with what a pally or mage can do would still be faster than killing mobs one at a time with a rogue well imo.
though... since you can play three at the same time, i'd say lvl up three toons together put another caster on follow and control the war on your main client.. it will prob be just as fast for you in the end and you will get more free gift lvl's to grant to any alts you have on the main accounts.

Protection warrior now when shockwave/thunder clap pwns. Take sm cath for example, i run in open the door to the cath then gather all mobs outside run in and poke on the boss aggro the rest and start the shockwave/tc madness i see tons off yellow dmg text all over my screen (ptr) and woops the instance is cleared after 5 mins
Needs some practice ofc but the goal is to get em all to run behind u and u turn around to shockwave then to tc directly afther that.
Works really good in higher instances also!

Edit: ah i thought u had a warr :S my bad, go with aoe warlock, SoC ftw with woidwalker agroing, wont be as with a warr but might work good :)

I have been using my lock. I just run through the entire instance casting 2 instant dots on each mob... siphon life and curse of agony. On the abbots add corruption. I kill the entire dungon in the time it takes me to run to every mob. Takes 10 minutes a run. I have tried the seed of corruption thing but for the first two sections the time it takes to gather them up I could have killed them all the other way. once you get in the cathedral you can send in a VW on boss, wait untill they are all aggroed on him and try to get off 3 SoC before the VW dies... good luck on that. If it works then you kill like 50 mobs at once, if it fails you will die.
