The triple exp stops at level 60.
You cannot gift a level to someone level 60 or higher.
You can still EARN gift levels up to 70.

No, bonus XP stops at 60. When you hit 60, roll more toons. Keep repeating until 90 days are up.Quote:

Gee - wouldn't this have been useful.......3 months ago.
The levels given away, does anyone know if they can be given to characters on other accounts, or is it limited to the same account (or even to the linked account)?
You gift the levels back to the account that recruited you. Bascially a "thank you" gift for introducing you to a wounderful new game :D
But do have to have paid for the account (ie. no longer trail account) to be able to gift levels?
seriously wow. that would ahve been sweet a couple weeks ago when i opened three new accounts.
I don't believe so, but seeing as how you can only gift levels to characters lower level I don't see why you'd want to boost an alt on a trial account you don't intend to pay for instead of boosting the alt you really want.Quote:

How about 4 days ago when I opened 4 accounts. They were all linked this morning and now they arent linked.Quote:

So if I get this straight, I can recruit 4 new accounts and make five new chars that get trip experience from lev 1-60 (quest exp as well). Then have 120 banked levels to give to characters that are under level 60 on the "mains" account? Meaning I can get 2 alts instantly to level 59?
Or If you can squeeze it in level them to 70 for 140 banked levels and get even more free levels?
Do I understand that correctly?
If so I will probably make sure thay don't nerf it and buy four new accounts soon.
Correct. Although I think the gifting cap is level 60, as in you can't gift to a level 60 character. You can gift to a 59 making it level 60 though.Quote:

And ideally with those 120 levels, I'd level them to 20 solo and gift 40 levels each so you can have THREE level 60's :).
Minor nit, but since you gain a gift level for every 2 levels a recruited character gains, then from 1-60 you'll gain 29 and 1-70 you'll gain 34 gift levels. Meaning that for 4x recruited accounts you'd have 116 or 136 levels, not 120/140.
So If i want 5 mounts I have to start 5 new acnts sent from the 5 acnts I have now? I started 5 acnts a few weeks ago but have not leveled them yet. So i wasted the money on the battlechests BUT WHO CARES!?!?! i want the mounts and the 3xexp!! so ill gladly spend the money for 5 more chests 8)
Also, Since you CAN use this RaF feature for yourself.. I just send an invite to my same email address from each of the current 5 acnts ? I mean me sending myself 5 RaFs from 5 of my acnts all to the same email is ok ? I guess ill just do it and see 8)
Ok the way I understand it is that you must round robin to get mounts for everyone. In the following everyone will get mounts but number 5, as account number 5 did not invite anyone.
1 links to 2 and 2 links to 3 and 3 links to 4 and 4 links to 5.
In this case 1 DOES NOT link with 3 or 4 or 5, ONLY with 2. For 1 to get free levels 2 has to be higher then 1 (or an alt on 1). 1 can only get free levels from 2. 2 can only get free levels from 3 etc.
All 5 are new accounts so you level 1-5 together (ALL will get 3X exp up to level 60). Lets say after 90 days all are level 60. Because all are the same level none can get any free levels. So you make alts on accounts 1,2,3,4 and they all go to level 30 insantly. (remember account 5 did not recruit anyone and thus none can give him levels or a mount). I don't see the edge there unless you move the alts to other account.
So I guess for me the free levels is worthless, because I plan to level all together (unless I want more then 26 for god knows what reason). I guess it cannot hurt to have buffing classes or something as level 30 alts on all accounts. And I only have to buy a 27th copy for some dummy account so that the last account can get his mount also heh.
On the other hand ALL 26 will be getting 3X exp ALL the time for 90 days (omg) up to level 60, assuming I make the groups out of linked accounts, which I will. Thats just insane.... Blizzard is just so out marketing SOE that is not even close. So now they get a flood of new accounts, people who get to level 60 fast, and people who are going to buy a full price WoTLK as soon as its released in November, which amazingly happens to be about 90 days away ... lol
Well I should have all 26 copies by Aug 12th or so ...
I don't care about the XP...I would just like one of the mounts. :(
I sooo wish this was retroactive.
I made 3 new accounts and linked them with 2 of my old ones to start a 5x Druid group, the xp is retardedly fast.
mmmmmm delicious xp

Links to my pics of 5x Zhevras :)
I checked out the XP--It's ridiculously fast. While you're getting Friend xp you don't use your rested, so you'll hit 60 with 1.5 levels of double xp. This is perfect for multiboxers just getting started or someone who doesn't mind dumping a bit of cash into it to power level on up to 60.
With my 70 Warlock boosting I bet I could get 4 toons to 60 in 2 days pretty easy.
Buy 6 accounts and refer 5. Then level as normal..... basically throw the 6th away. I haven't given this more than 10 seconds of thought but seems at first glance to be a way to get 5 zebras and all the rest of the benefits.
1 recruits 2 which recruits 3 which recruits 4 which recruits 5 which recruits 6.
1 Has not been recruited so you can toss it?
I have to read up on this more but what do you think?
so Ive just read the entire epic thread
awesome
I 5 box, so can I transfer my 4 alts to my main account, suspend their accounts, refer a friend round robin to get zebras and all the benefits and then transfer my toons back to the new accounts?
I think so but you would need to buy 4 new accounts and upgrade them to TBC (or buy the battlechest).
And of course pay to transfer 4 characters... twice.

Sounds good to me. I just went ahead and bought more accounts and tested this. With chain recruiting, it works just fine. Each account is linked to the next, and I enjoyed the huge amount of experience killing a boar in durotar :)Quote:

You'll have to create a 6th and scrap it if you want mounts on all 5.
I didn't even think twice about dropping the cash on brand new accounts. Screw my level 40 shammies...I'll just catch up in no time and come out way ahead :)
So I started leveling my shaman team 3 days ago and I noticed the announcement today. Luckily I only paid for one account and the other 3 were on trials. So I deleted the chars. Reissued the friend invites by staggering accounts. That way 3 of my 4 accounts get the mount and everyone gets 300% xp. Had a friend start boosting me tonight on his level 70 mage. He is not associated with any recruit a friend and I was still getting absolutely insane xp. I went from 1-23 in 4.5 hours played time. The escort quest in Razorfen Kraul, at level 22, yielded me 10950xp...... this is definately amazing. I also plan on saving my granted levels until 70 so I will have 35 on 3 of the 4 characters. I then plan on boosting 3 new characters to level 25 and using the free 35 levels to get them to 60 ;) I love blizzard for this one!!!
Ohhh and this is my first time actively trying to boost a character so I know I have a lot to learn.

For clarification -- TBC would be necessary here if you were to xfer from your main account to the trial account. TBC is not necessary if you are transferring from the trial (using vanilla WoW) to your main account. You will still get a zhevra mount as long as the vanilla WoW account pays for 2 full months of playtime.Quote:

I think you toss 6. The account that does the recruting gets the mount.Quote:

A lot of the information is spread out a bit in this thread and I just want to see if this scenario would work. I don't have a toon I can boost with (level 24 druid, though). I just want to have 5 accounts who benefit from the XP. I'm Tauren and seeing an Orc is so huge on that mount I think it would look too goofy for the larger Tauren. I don't have any high level toons on any of my current accounts so I don't mind deleting them after all is said and done.
Since I am not worried about the mount I can just recruit 4 new accounts from my main account and all will be linked and good to go? Sorry if this is obvious from previous posts in the threads but my coffee is not kicking in very good this morning.
And if I understand it correctly, I could then start leveling the toons on a trial-account and upgrade them before the 10 days are up and they would benefit from the XP gains during that time?
SO giving it some furthur thought the most economical method for someone concerned with just the xp for 5 toons would be to buy three new accounts (assuming you already have at least two, that way existing account one recruits two new accounts and account two recruits one new existing account, this will lead to the 3x exp for everybody.
Then you get 3 accounts who can grant bonus levels which means you loose out on at least one accounts gift levels, but save the money from buying 2 to three more accounts...
Tough decision there.
OK how does this sound:
I want 4 shammies to complement my 5 box team and I'm not worried about the mounts - zebra schmevra. So, I RAF 2 accounts from 1 account which gives me 2 shammies on the new accounts and I create 1 shammy on the vet account. I level these 3 shammies normally getting 300% xp no boosting, but will have my 70 priest or 70 Prot Pally follow them around and heal occasionaly or get them out of trouble if required. When they get to 60 they should have 30 levels each to gift to the vet account. I then create another shammy on the vet and instantly level him to 60 with the gifts and I transfer him to one of the other box accounts, the 2 shammies on the new accounts are then transferred to my vet accounts and the new accounts are closed. I now have 4 shammies at 60 who can level together and roll in my prot pally as the fifth. The benefit of this is that the xp isn't diluted so much because there's only 3 in the group while levelling to 60, also the $$$ value as it's only 2 more accounts.
I went ahead and did a recruit and created my new accounts. They are all linked to my main. So I guess I am good to go.
I was thinking, instead of creating a new toon to level these with I would just use my level 24 druid as the main and evenutally the other toons should catch up. And I can then use my level gifts to boost it to a higher level. I guess it would be cool to have a higher level toon as main for utility purposes but not sure how that will affect the XP.
Hey everyone, i'm new around here, though i've been reading stuff for a couple weeks.
I was on the fence about 5 boxing. But when i saw this promotion, it put me over the top. As if god was giving me a sign that now was the time.
I couldn't have planned it better.
I added 4 accounts yesterday, each account referring the next account. At one point it wouldn't let me add the last account, so i had to call Blizz. The rep confirmed that i was completely within the rules to refer myself to myself. Even though it wasn't how they intended it to be used.
The only thing i'm not sure about now is when all this kicks in. I set it up as a monthly recurring charge. So i know the mount wont get to me for a while. but i hope the xp bonus start immediately. I'd hate to have to wait 2 months for that to start as well.
Maybe i should go buy timecards.
OH GOD!
I barely got my 5shammies to 16 today. I'm considering starting over and getting 4 more battle chests to speed up the process.
Lets see here, 4x40=$160 as stated before. $160 dollars is very fund-raisable these days, and if I get 3x the xp AND spiffy mounts?!
Im doin it :thumbup:
Looks like I have something to do today. Will be buying 3 new accounts. Now all I have to do is decide my new group makeup......which always takes FOREVER.
Sorry for all the posts this morning! I went ahead and decided to just take full advantage of the XP and make 5 new toons. Just set everything up and within minutes I was level 4. Incredible XP! Kill one level 4 mob and you get 57XP for the kill and a 38XP bonus. So just one kill you get 95XP!!! This will give a whole new meaning to grinding instances for XP. Can you imagine how many points you will get? Holy crap probably 800 points a kill in RFC. I imagine it won't take me long at all to catch up to my previous level 24 level.
One thing I can see that will be a problem, however, is the experience points in weapons, defense, etc. I guess these can be leveled in chunks later on. It will also be hard to keep up with gear since you will be leveling so fast and not having the gold to keep up. Probably not a huge problem, though. Anyways, glad I did it. I was already getting the grind blues and this will make it much better. woo hoo!
I linked up an account and rolled a rogue and priest, the two classes I don't have 70 yet. :D Damn, the xp just flies. In an hour I was lvl 12 on them both.
Missed this by ONE !@#$ing DAY. Bought a game card with my second account, got a free month on my first, then today (well, yesterday, I'm still up from then), I see the new Recruit-A-Friend buff. !@#$ me. I wanted a Zhevra mount, but I'm not getting another account just for it.
I want a Zhevra mount too, even do more then 2-boxing.
But no, I'm from Denmark, I can't use the Recruit A Friend :(
"Players with a World of Warcraft account from the following countries

France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, UK, Norway, Sweden, Greece,

Trying to get the most out of this here.
I have 7 accounts:
-- 1 "Main" account that I raid with (2 70s on it)
-- 1 "Alt Main" account (70 Prot Pally for boosting)
-- 1 Miscellaneous Account (alt bank and whatnot)
-- 4 Shaman accounts for my team
I know I want the mount on my "Main" account and plan to use the "Main" to MB with anyway, so there's one. I want to leave the Pally's account uninvolved so I can boost easier. The Misc. account will also stay uninvolved. I want to get a full party of 5 making 3x XP. My Shamans are all only in the low-40s; should I remake the Shamans and PL them all the way back up? What's the best way to take advantage of this: cancel 3 Shaman accounts and get three more for the bonuses?
First the beta, now this. ZOMG. Blizz, you're killing me here, you're killing me! The good thing about it is that I just started multiboxing and have new accounts I could trash. Bad thing is, I used game cards and still have over 2 months of game time left on my "new" old accounts. :( Well, you can never have enough accounts, amirite comrades?
Btw, beta is mad fun, but leveling thrice as fast would be just as mad fun as well. *ponder, ponder, ponder*
I think Blizz is exploiting my inability to control my altaholism. Enablers!!
:thumbsup:
I also just want to double check and make sure I am doing this right. I currently have 3 accounts. I have 1 lvl 65 shaman, and 2 low level shaman (like lvl 6 or 7). I want to eventually 5 box. What should I do? Do I just buy 3 more accounts, and throw 1 away. I care nothing about the mount, but I do want the 3x EXP. What would be the best way to go about it?
