RAF Monks

[Multibocks]

Hey guys was thinking about getting some accounts and leveling a group so I can instantly set some monks to 80. I'm trying to figure out how I should do it. So if I don't want to keep the accounts I get for RAF and just use them to get a monk team on my EXISTING accounts how would I do that? Each idea I come up with leaves one account out of the picture. If I do existing account A to new account 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 I would have to be one 80 short and have to transfer to my existing accounts B->E. Any ideas?

Have your main account recruit both new accounts, then boost them through dungeons. A->B, A->C

Each time you level a pair to 80 you basically have a free monk on your main.

"both new accounts"?

I'm getting 5 accounts so I can do 5 new monks, so I'm not sure I follow your explanation. 5 accounts would be easier to level and provide 5 free level 80 monks, however I would have to pay to move each monk back to the original accounts.
I have existing accounts A through E and I want to level new RAFs 1-5. I feel like I need a graphic to understand how best to go about this, lol.

That won't work because B and C aren't linked together. That method only works if you add in a B>D and a C>E because B and C need to be linked to another character that's their level and a high level booster cancels that out.

so with two new accounts.. Existing account A ( and booster ) Invites B, and B invites C, so B and C are linked...and A can boost?


I think I'm going to do it the fun way and just level 5 monks through instances and a little questing ( 3 new accounts tied to two existing accounts )

Yes, that's the way it's always been.

I don't understand why you are going on about two new accounts? I'm confused. I want 5 monks, not 3.

MiRai is talking to three different people at once in this thread, his comment was directed to lionheart.

You can level multiple characters on each new account and then just transfer them, you dont need 5 accounts to get 5 level 80 toons. I think thats why I was stuck on the 2 new accounts comment, it was on my mind.

So you have accts A, B, C, D, E and you want to add 5 more accts ( F, G, H, I, J ) using RaF/level granting
.. what if A refers F, B > G, C > H, D > I and E > J ?

Would that work effectively? (requires 10 boxing I guess, but no one left out)

A > F
B > G
C > H
D > I
E > J

You wouldn't be able to level in 5 man teams, you'd have to level in two 4 mans and one 2 man.

2 3 man teams and a 4 would work also. All depends on how ya wanna go about doing things, but 3 man teams if played well can do instances if ya go slow, or if ya have a booster it doesn't really matter.

Thanks for the help, but I decided to just level 5 monks by themselves without granting levels. The amount of time to get two groups up to 80, and with GW2 coming out, is not something I want to do anymore.

With RaF and dungeon boosting the played time to level 2 teams is about 30-36 hours.

[daviddoran]

You could do it with only 2 new throwaway accounts (currently $5 for vanilla/bc and $5 for wrath) but it would require leveling lots of throwaway toons (just to use them for level granting) and lots of paid character transfers. It's all about how much money you want to spend. I believe it was the second poster that suggested linking 2 new accounts to one account, then use a fourth account to do the boosting, level 5 separate trios to 80, then delete the toons on acct A, wait for pandaria, create 5 new monks, and grant levels like mad, then do 4 paid character transfers ($100) to your existing 4 accounts, and let the new RAF accts expire, or transfer the toons should you desire them.

Or just get all heirlooms and start from level 1.

[Multibocks]

Yep Heirlooms, RAF and leveling 5 monks on new accounts then I will transfer back to old accounts. Not going to bother with leveling teams to grant levels, waste of time for me that I don't have in the foreseeable future.

Accidentally bought 4 Cata expansions thinking RAF went to 85 :mad:

You will enjoy being able to fly in SW/Org while you level, thats worth the extra $10.

[Multibocks]

Oh, I see. I was going to just give them away. Maybe not :)

Is the ability to fly in a major city worth $10/copy on accounts you're going to be throwing away? You have to first be able to fly which doesn't happen until level 60 (only 20 levels left on RaF at that point) and then you have to spend hundreds of gold on each of them for the ability to fly in the old world -- It's not free and doesn't come standard with base flying.

Blizzard gave game time last time they wiped an expansion and put it into the Battlechest and I would probably just hold onto them to see if they'll do that again so you can turn each of your $10 Cataclysm codes into $15 worth of game time.

If they did that it would be for WotLK first, but I agree it's not worth activating it now !
