I remember the first time I granted 60 levels to a group, took forever to log them in and click grant/accept 60 times. =/

Alright, I was thinking of returning to WoW to try out the melee multiboxing, but have not because I don't think I'll make it through the grind (I have no PLing classes).
If I renew my 5 accounts, with NO RAF, this method is not available to me, correct?
I haven't multiboxed since Season 3, so I've just got 4x 70 shaman on 4 accounts. I most likely don't plan on playing these chars, but is it worthwhile to buy 4 new Vanilla's then 4 BCs then 4 WotLK? Hmm....
Even at that point, I'd still have to level my first team to 55 before I could make DKs.
Just pondering to myself (on a public forum, I know). /sigh
No RAF = no free levels, so no it wont work for you.
Sort of.
Depends on what you want to box with.
A 70 shaman, can boost through the Scarlet Monastery pulls quite easily.
Maybe not the entire instance in 1-2 pulls, but much faster then a normal pace.
If you want 4-5x DK's, I'd assume you have a 55+ on each of the five accounts.
As you mentioned 4x level 70's.
So you can start a 55 DK on those accounts, and be 57/58th by the time you leave the starting area, even without RAF.
If you decide on 4x Anything + 1x Something.
And they're new classes, which you don't have, then RAF is your best bet.
Take your single best tank type on any account.
Even a Resto druid, with AH green feral gear would work at 65+.
Or the best geared shammy if you lack the tank entirely.
Activate three accounts.
One to boost with.
Two to be boosted.
Purchase 2 classic wow accounts, which you will not upgrade.
Paying for 1 month of time, credits the 2 existing accounts with a month each, so its free essentially.
If you care about the Zhevra mounts (one toon on each existing accounts get one), pay for a 2nd month on the "throw away" accounts.
Boost away.
Your set up is:
A (Booster)
B (Existing) -- RAF Link -- Throw Away Account
C (Existing) -- RAF Link -- Throw Away Account
For every 2 toons boosted on BC/Garbage/Garbage, BC receive an extra 60 via granted levels.
You can repeat the process with the other two keeper accounts.
A will probably want a character transfer from at least one of BCDE.
If money isn't an issue, the bonus toons on BC from granted levels could all be moved to A.
Which gets ABC each having the same number of new toons, all at 60th.
call me crazy but iI do, level to 10, VC till 20, sm cath till 40, brd till 59. its pretty simple for me now that ive done it with 3 teams. working on the 4th as i type :)
what do people do with all these teams at 60?
let them rot?
Interesting exploit, but doing the DK starting zone over and over sounds like about as much fun as herpes.
But then again so is boosting, even with a paladin.
Have you actually tried this or this is theorycrafting ?
can you grant the level if the DK is still in their instanced zone - don't the granter and grantee have to be in range ? (and afaik you can't get in that zone if you're not a DK)
DK will need to get out of the starting area, or you'll need to get the recipient into the area.
You physically right click on the targets frame and select grant a level.
There was a macro, to offer the granted level.
And another to accept it.
Putting both on the same keybind, allowed a mash the button approach.
Still, you will basically need to leave the starting area.
Which means do all of the quests.
Should be 60th, with RAF by the time you exit.
So able to grant three levels, even the last three levels.
Since cascaded levels are lower as they go.
Having the option to grant high levels quickly is pretty good.
doing all the starter DK zone quests isn't that quick - if you have RAF I'm not sure doing 57-60 with the raf'ed group you actually want isn't as fast than doing 55-60 with new throwaway DKs.
