Boosting /played time /w recruit-a-friend

Fantastic

I wonder how much longer the boosting + RAF will work... just got started on 4 new Warlocks myself.. hope it holds until I can boost a few more groups to 40.

I don't think it works anymore. The way it was worded originally was that so long as the mob was not gray to any of the linked accounts you still get 3x XP. Now that's no longer true, if it's gray to anyone in your party you won't get the XP bonus.

I just tested it boosting through SM with an unlinked level 70. I am still getting RAF bonus for all kills.

Well that's good news for all of us then

I was reading a blue post yesterday in the customer service forums that made it sound like they took it out. My guess was that it was due to the level one exploit and it leaked over into non linked account boosting. I'll do some searching in a bit and try and pull it up, maybe it just hasn't gone live yet.

Last night took the girls (2 pairs of linked accounts) and my lvl 70 mage to Stockades. All 4 of the RaF accounts were getting 3x XP from kills, I believe. While I don't know the exact penalty for having a lvl 70 in group they were getting about twice what they would have been getting in a normal, non-3x run.

My problem is, I have a 70 mage, but it's linked to the other accounts :-/ I think I'll still try it anyway. even regular xp is still group xp with a 70 run

Personally, I skip anything that requires me to collect anything. Collecting items multiple times for multiple characters is just lame.

I've been thinking of keeping a list of collection quests with a 100% drop rate. Offhand I know about the raptor heads quest in the Crossroads and the stag meat/buck hides quests in Azuremyst Isle. Since the drop is guaranteed, you know how many mobs you need to kill. So it's like a "kill X" quest with a higher-than-normal amount of X.

Another question, alright, I have a druid at 16 and a priest at 12. How does one solo WC with a Prot pally effectively?

Skip WC, do RFC then SFK once you are around 17-18

[Abyssal]

skip RFC :P

you can get in SFK at level 10, pull everything up to the big wolf boss back to the entrance (where the newbs sit, they don't move after zoning in), you'll get to level 12 in one pull

Using a holy pally (holy shock = heals on the go ) I got my new pally to level 30 (so I could grant levels with my shaman to 60) in about 3 hours /played. Quested in eversong to 10, SFK to 20, SM to 30... easy. I do SM cathedral in 2 pulls, takes about 12 minutes per run.

So what exactly would I do, just pull up to what boss and reset or do the entire instance. The curse is deadly.
