Hey everyone, first of all i'd like to apologise if this isnt the right place to ask this, but im fairly new to Mboxing and i have a few questions regarding this subject.

I was thinking about leveling a group of alts via triple boxing with RAF, linking the accounts like: A>B>C.

Account A would be the booster, Accounts B and C would be the ones with the alts.

Although, i noticed the following on RAF's FAQ :

"Do normal experience rules apply?

Yes, if a monster is trivial to either player, no experience boost is given."

My question is, would the fact that AccountA (LvL 80 Booster) is boosting the other 2 accounts in dungeons remove the x3 experience bonus, or would accounts B and C still get the bonus, since they're linked together?

Thanks in advance,
Moo

they still get the 3x xp. though that's takes the lvl80 in group into account, but since you basically kill them instantly it's still the fastest method.

i was trying to work it out last month - i've got 2 new RAF accounts to get some extra toons fast for my 5 man team which has now run out of RAF (A-B-C-D-E). Bear with my TL;DR...

I linked A->F->G and used 80 pally in gp A to boost the 2 lvl 30s but noticed the XP was slightly less than when I boosted the original 4 toons. My theory (which may or is incorrect) was that it takes the average of the group i.e. 80, 30, 30 = 46. So I switched to a lvl 30 in group A and boosted with a druid from group D so A->F->G RAF links correctly + boost with the 80 in D not linked. Using my method this would be avg of ~42> (80+30+30+30)


Does this make sense? I know a million posts have been done about this but would be good to understand the basic maths behind it.

So I am doing something similar. I have just started 2 RAF accounts (may expand to 4 if time permits) and my simple linking was A = booster, B linked to New RAF 1 and C Linked to New RAF 2. My thought process here is that each of the existing accounts will get a new toon each time I boost to 60 and then the additional granted levels to the original account.
I have never actually linked a boosting 80 in an RAF chain.

I believe that with a 5 man group the group bonus is higher.
