RAF and getting four accounts?

So I did read alot on the forums but I really can't see the best solution to this.

I have two accounts (one not mine or in my name). So I am not going to use this account for the 5 boxing.

So what is my best option here:

Main account -> RAF 1
Main account -> RAF 2
Main account -> RAF 3
Main account -> RAF 4

or

Main Account -> RAF 1
RAF 1 -> RAF 2
RAF 2 -> RAF 3
RAF 3 -> RAF 4

Do I get the xp bonus on all my accounts if I quest together using either method?

Also from what I see only my main account would get the mount in the first method but in the 2nd method all but my RAF 4 account would get the mount?

My last question would be how would I do the 2nd method? Cause you got to have a fully paid/playable account to RAF so would I have to do it after I bought them all or what? This part I don't quite understand.

With one you get 4 Zhevras for your main account.

With the other you spread the Zhevras out a bit more.

Otherwise, there is no difference between your two options. Both will get the 300% experience boost. :)

To do the second, just click the "recruit a friend" option in the account administration page to send your subsequent refer a friend codes. It's just a matter of logging into account admin on each account.

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.

First method, your main accounts could get 4 mounts.

You do have to purchase the game in order to remove the restrictions of a trial account. You can't refer a friend on a trial account.

So I guess my best option is to setup a few non RAF accounts and get this badboy running and then when I want to, create my accounts seperately but use the RAF before I install the next one. I think I understand.

If you base all the RAF off the same account (or two accounts) you could get a couple free 60s through grant-a-level.

I believe you get triple exp if you're partied with the accounts who referred each other, so either way works. Just never forget to party up.

Only do the first one if you have many toons on that acount you can gift up to 60.

I wanted to lvl many 4 man teams
so got two new accounts and used to vetern accounts for RAF.

This allows me to to use one of my other 3 non linked accounts to quest help or boost as needed.

Here's what I did, simply because I wanted to get mounts on as many as possible on the new team.

I used an existing account with some L70s on it to refer a first one, activated it, and then chained more RAF's. In addition to getting more mounts for the multibox team, there are some nice summoning options too. (You can have each person summon the next one in the chain and warp a whole team to where one of your fast, mounted L70s on the veteran account is.

Vet Acct 1: L70 Mage powerleveler, "Hunter0", L38 Priest (will join them post SM powerleveling) -> RAF1
RAF1: "Hunter1" -> RAF2
RAF2: "Hunter2" -> RAF3
RAF3: "Hunter3" -> RAF4
RAF4: "Hunter4" -> RAF5
RAF5 - Nobody, just activated it in order to get mount for Hunter4.

I used game cards so that the mounts are instantly available, instead of having to wait for the two months of subscription. I'll eventually character transfer off Hunter1-4 onto my existing shaman multiboxing accounts...

If you set it up this way, you will get 300% RAF XP on everyone as long as you're not playing a L70 character in slot 1. When I'm powerleveling with the mage, only Hunters 2-3-4 get RAF bonus XP. It's not much of a problem, since Hunter2 can just gift the levels to Hunter1 to make up for the loss. They're all pretty well synced up with maybe half a level difference in XP at L36. When the priest is in control, everyone gets normal RAF bonus, and I'll switch to priest + 4xHunters at L40. Then, I can gift Hunter1's levels to the "Hunter0" character, if I really want to.

Anyhow, hope that helps.
