New Referral Program greatly enhances Multiboxing?
SO, I'm curious to see the thoughts of the multiboxing community around the new Blizzard refer-a-friend program that was announced today. Not only do you get 5 referrals to dish out to your new accounts for multiboxing, but you also get a new mount AND triple to expierience points for 90 days! Additionally, all the accounts that you refer and create can summon each other anywhere in game. Does anyone else see this as having a positive impact on the multiboxing community? My only regret is that I just purchased my 5 account about 1 month ago, about the time I started multiboxing. /SIGH.
From the FAQ:
Quote:
What in-game benefits do we get while the accounts we play are linked?
1. Characters on both accounts can summon each other once per hour.
2. While adventuring with your linked friend/family member, you will each gain triple experience.
3. For every two levels the new player earns, the new player can grant one free level-up to a lower-level character played by the veteran player.

How long will I be linked to my recruit?
The link between the accounts will last for 90 days from the date that your recruit creates an account. Remember that for the link to work properly, your recruit must create a new World of Warcraft account using the 10-day trial key in your invitation email.
Quote:
Do I always gain triple experience while I am linked to my recruit?
No, only when you are partied with a character on the linked account and both players are present when slaying the monster or completing the quest. Also, if the two characters are not the same level, only the lower-level character is given the experience boost.
Quote:
Is quest experience tripled too?
Yes, but only if the quest was not trivial (gray difficulty) for either character.
