The Boosting and Power Leveling summary thread

Not sure if this was mentioned for method 1. 1 lvl60+4alts is best exp..if you lose one alt or add another 60..the exp goes down.. i started with a 60 mage and 4 lowbies in DM..i was getting 44exp per kill on the alts. i later tied 60 mage and 60 priest and 3 alts.( alts were only 13 at the time ) they now only got 22 exp per kill with 2 60s in group.

Also, my 60 mage is a fresh 60..mostly gear obtained in 40+ dungons..takes a lot of damage even in DM. a lot of the BiS items have no stam..should i do a full eagle set for PLing.. unless i have a better +stam already? also, should i respec for ice/arcane? Seems like the higher level the dungon.. i might want to keep the mobs at bay a bit hehe.

Do we have any feel for how much faster it is boosting a 4 man team with a level 60 character compared to a complete lowbie team?
I recently rolled a new team on a server where I have a 60 mage and can't decide on whether I should roll a complete team or just go with four plus the max level character. The gains need to be rather large for it to be worth leaving out a fifth character.

Any ideas?
