Got to it before me. If you do it any way but this, plan to catch up 80 levels somehow. Also, prep that account with BoA gear for when you start questing. After 80 probably use that deepholm aoe grinding spot by tagging and having high levels finish off he mobs,Quote:

The goal is to hit 85 within 24 hours of the expansions launch, hopefully unsettling any competition to basically give up so I can grab a few hours sleep before plowing into MOP 85-90.
Id be careful on that its not clear if dropping people in and out of the instance is legal.Quote:
group with 5 then offline 2 of them so effectively only using 2 level 85s to boost the Monk might give more XP than if it was in a group of 5 80s?
Granted levels would be the fastest by far. Stock up on as much lvl 80 BoE gear beforehand, and have 2 level 80s ready and waiting, each with 40 levels to grant to the lvl 1 monk. Within seconds you have an 80, then send him his bags, repair gold, and the boe gear and choose your path, (questing, aoe grinding, or instance boosting)Quote:

I would assume the same, but do you have a link to an official announcement on that?Quote:

Athene did not receive the realm first achievement because he transferred to a new server, and its right in the server transfer FAQ that you are ineligible for realm first achievements until after 60 days. Think his video showed him hitting 85 in about 5 hours tagging, while the achievement went out at 14 hours, Athene was nearly 3 times faster.
The question here is about Refer a Friend, not server transfer. So blue posts about Athene probably wont help us find out about RaF.
7 hour and a half actually.Quote:

Either way I can't see them not allowing RaF for monks. People will specifically do a raf to level up faster. So I rather see them exclude raf from the race to realm first.
Does RaF gifting take you to 80 or to 79? And what about scroll of ressing an old account and instant lvl 80 monk and upgrade online to cata while lvling to 85?
Also consider that they are probably going to force you to stay in the starting zone until level ten when you decide to be horde/alliance just like they annoyingly do with goblin/worgen. So knowing the human starting zones inside out won't do you much good if you're stuck in pandaria to level 14 (assuming full heirlooms)
