Level 80 Boosting

[Darelik]

A) Does boosing with a level 80 work decently for 1-4 linked accounts? (booster->acc1->acc2...etc) Or does it completely negate bonus? Or is level 80 so high it kills xp versus questing?

B) When boosting, is a full group significanntly better than boosting just 2 characters?

Money isn't a major concern, so the way I'm thinking my options right now is:

i) Pally (80) boosting 4 linked accounts - This would be the most expensive, but leave me with lots of gifted characters if I ever want to play them; Of course it requires boosting to still work (I seem to remember RAF boosting being stated as to be nerfed).

ii) Pally (80) boosting 2 linked accounts - That's all I really need, and if it's faster I might as well save the 2 extra accounts. Again this is depending on boosting not being nerfed.

iii) If boosting is nerfed, have 3 linked accounts that just quest level to 60 (any opinions on how much more hassle 5 accounts would be to quest level than 3?)

Input much appreciated before I start blowing my cash

A) i finished my RAF 1st week of March and I tried boosting with a 70 pally, 70 mage and 80 mage. fastest booster was the 80 mage: around -20% the instance run times of the 70 mage and about -35% of the 70 pally.

B) if you boost 2 toons at a time, then you'd have to do it twice to make up 4 toons boosted. bit more party xp too. but like you said, if you don't need a ton of 60s, then pally boosting 2 linked accounts would do u fine, as boosting only takes 8h.

...the way i setup my RAF was - i had the booster account unlinked and the 4 accounts chained (a->b->c->d). seems they are sure that boosting with a linked account works. but then not linking the booster with the slave accounts would only mean that you don't get a zebra for the booster and don't get to grant the grantable levels from account A to the booster account.
