What's the best way to form a 10man team?

[Diwa]

I would like to know how to form a 10man raid team ready for Naxx and Ulduar solo raids in a very fast and economical way.

Given:
Account 1: Paladin lvl 80


Plan A
Account 1 only.
Fill it with nine more lvl 80 through questing. Join guild or PUG raids. When all of them are equiped, purchase 9 accounts and character transfer.


Plan B
Account 1 RAF two accounts. Boost 2 new accounts until you have 9 lvl 60. Account 1 will Quest and Instance boost the 2 accounts until lvl 80. Purchase 7accounts and character transfer.


Plan C
Account 1 will RAF 4 accounts then when ready purchase 5 new accounts then character transfer


Plan D
Buy 9 accounts and quest/instance boost them at the same time.

well doing 10 to 80 will take so long that 1, you will be so annoyed of leveling u will quit or by the time you did it all, you would have a new expansion out. I would advise the 9 together at the same time, and just questing or w/e just kill stuff to level up. Although when i did it i only did 5, I coulnt imagine if I had to do it 1 by 1 to 80

Having leveled up 2 10-man teams, I can definitively say Plan C.

RAF 4 accounts, PL them to 60/61 (61s through gifting last level at 59.99), PL 4 more to 40 or so, PL 4 more to 30 or so. Gift and transfer toons intelligently... 1 80 and 9 60/61s. Play 2 teams of 5 from 60 to 80 questing and doing each instance once for rest XP and instance quest boosts.

Do heroics for a bit, solo your way through half (or more) of Naxx.

BTW, I recently did some PLing with my 80 pally.... took 12 hours /played from 0 to 60/61. So in 24 hours or so you should have two teams to level 60/61 (again with intelligent gifting).

Leveling 61 to 80 on the other hand... that will take a while.

My suggestion to boost 9 toons to 60/61 with RAF with just one transfer:

A - main account (non linked booster)
B -> C -> D -> E -> F -> G -> H -> I -> J (9 chained RAF accounts, B invites C, C invites D, ... )

1. instance boost CDEF to 31.99
2. instance boost GHIJ to 31.99
3. continue boost IJ to 59.99
4. ding J to 60
5. level together another 2 toons on accounts I and J to 3.99
6. grant 1 level from lvl60 J -> lvl59 on I (becomes 60.99)
7. grant 28 levels from lvl60 J -> lvl3 on I (31.99)
8. transfer lvl31 from I -> B
9. chain grant 29 levels I -> H -> G -> F -> E -> D -> C -> B
10. ding BCDEFGHI to new levels
11. you got now 1x80,8x61,1x60

Thanks for the Tips!

The 9 approach is pretty interesting. I'll weigh all the factors behind all the suggestions and decide what to do.

Currently doing it myself, if you'd start from scratch and if you are ok with a DK:

1. Lvl 5 chars to 70
2. Create 5 DKs, do the start area
3. Boost 4 chars with a char from your 5th account up to 29.99
4. Join the 4 man team with the DK from your 5th account
