Boosting /played time /w recruit-a-friend

[lacitpo]

I'm very interested in questing XP, non boosting. Anyone running a 4-5 man group and just questing or running instances w/out a lvl 70 boosting you?

Hmm, I think I should go dig up the big list of collection quests that aren't BoP or untradeable drops... the ones where you can grind them on your main / buy them on the AH, and trade the items to your alt. The 5 at LHC (dark iron scraps, etc) will now be worth ~1.5 levels!

Lol I am going to farm the crap out of those and sell em on the AH just for this reason

Absolutely dig that up and post it up on here so we can get those before they start being over priced on the AH!

Found it, here :
Multi-boxer's dream: BoE quest hand-ins

Looks like it could use some improvement and then a wiki-ification. Any volunteers?

Yup alot of people do. That's how I do my groups. Goes slightly longer than boosting, and is not nearly as mundane. I know some people have gotten some really good /played times just from questing and doing a few instances.

Straight questing?

BTW, I fully expect that this is going to get nerfed in the future, although comparing to 3x experience questing it's still somewhat unbelievable the amount of benefit Blizz is allowing new refer-a-friend accounts to get, boosting or not. If someone were to tell me about this without showing proof on the Blizz website I would've told them they're nuts, so...

In any case, Blizz has confirmed that boosting this way is the expected behavior. I will be shocked if they don't nerf it, but hey... I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.

I'm gonna be the saddest panda on the planet if this gets nurfed. With XP bonus and the 2 for 1 level granting up to lvl 60, I'll have 10 new 70's by the end of the month.

Oh, and friend and I were discussing that this is gonna put a hurting on account selling. At least on those selling base level accounts that are not geared for PVP or whatever.

I think it's clear that Blizzard is establishing 60 as the new "floor" and, hence, I doubt this will be nerfed. They WANT recruits to enjoy the WotLK content (Naxx, anyone?), so it wouldn't make sense to reverse course. They've clearly spent time developing their policy and that also points to permanence. Even 3-4 days /played is enough to get the basic feel of the game mechanics, plus it's a huge boost to the coffers that will also ensure a strong WotLK release.

I sure hope I'm right =)
