Does anyone know if RAF will be around for the next expansion? Since Blizzard is revamping the world, they may or may not be in a hurry for everyone to level to endgame.

I've heard it said that the game begins at "current level cap". I say it begins at level 1, I enjoy the leveling process (unless I'm doing the same quest for the umpteenth time) and exploring the world.

My guess is it will still be around in the same form it is now. I'm thinking they may raise the raf cap to 70 but not for a couple months after cataclysm comes out. It's all just speculation but why would they get rid of something that makes them money?

I was planning on starting a RaF team if its still around with one of the new races and then using the BoA items to level 60-85 faster =D

It comes down to this. For some people, there is no game but end game. While they may enjoy the quests leveling, they'd rather be raiding. For others, they love leveling and sometimes just start a new character once they hit cap. These people wouldn't use RaF if they felt it made leveling to fast. Having RaF benefits those that want it and doesn't impact those that don't. Getting rid of it would be a bad move as they would lose a lot of potential rerolls.

I'm moderately curious if RAF will still be as good as it is now. I don't think Blizz really wants people blasting through the 30+ zones they just re-designed for the rework of the old world.

Wouldn't surprise me if the site sees more traffic though, if people try to use RAF to blast their way to 85 with their new Worgen/Goblin.

With the new cap being 85 vs. 90, I doubt they will change much, if anything.

Remember we've got lots of BoA gear now, and they are streamlining the 1-60 questing process (getting rid of the "run around / tour the world" quests, and making rewards actually usefull).

So RaF + WoW 4.0 = 1-60 in a weekend. (I can do this now, but it involves boosting). I also did 60-70 on my Boomkin in a weekend, solo. (lol)

If they were to raise RaF to 1-70... omg. They might as well just have characters start at 60 or something.

60-70 on your Boomkin in a weekend, solo. Yowwww....did you go to the bathroom at all? :)

Of course he went to the bathroom. Didn't you see how Cartman went to the bathroom in the South Park WoW episode? That's how most of us who live in our mom's basement go to the can when we're playing.
