    I'm not sure, if I just do it wrong, but it seems with the latest patch on Wednesday they fixxed boosting with a lvl 60 pet. I tried it with a 60 Warlock pet. Attacked mobs with the pet which my low alt tagged and the xp penalty was as if I just attacked with my warlock main.

    Can anybody confirm method -2B) Killing by level 60 Pet(s) of any level mobs is now also nerfed?

In RFC I was using my warrior to boost, and can clear 5-6k xp in 12 minutes making for around 20-25k xp/hour. I did a little bit of Wailing caverns and the XP seems to be 25k/hour using the warrior to boost as well. Lets just say its way less stressful than actually doing the dungeons legit haha.

    Also, it 100 percent isn't a "Average group level" calculation for dungeon XP although it may seem like it. I did a little bit of testing with a friend and we found out it seems to be those who can get XP from the mob contribute to a pool of XP. So basically we found if you have a lvl 60 and 1 low lvl alt meant for the dungeon you will get the same XP or less(since group bonus) as if you had 4 60s + the low level alt even though the average would of clearly gone up a ton and this is because in both cases only 1 player is contributing to the xp pool. So basically you want the most people contributing to the XP pool while maintaining the 5 party size bonus. 4 low alts contributing to the XP pool + a 60 will always be the most XP per mob from a boost.

    heres a sheet my friend put together for XP based on group size, as you can see doing a dungeon with 10 accounts puts you at more than 5x less XP per acc than 5 accounts because of the raid penalty.

    Do you have 2+ low level alts in a party by themselves?

    My bad, still works like a charm! One alt parked dead on a graveyard in the same playfield is the trick.

    I wish I had 3 60 hunters to boost, as the speed lvling an alt to 44+ would be insane.

    Can confirm that it still works. Tested with 15/16 chars + warlock pet in Westfall

    Edit: to clarify; one 15 and one 16 alive in same group, boosted by highlvl warlock pet outside of their group
