    If your existing accounts are A-E.
    And you upgrade these to Vanilla + BC + Wrath + Cataclysm (why not, they're keeper accounts?)...

    Then get new accounts just for RAF.
    B links to F
    C links to G
    D links to H
    E links to I
    A can be used for boosting.

    Create a <New Race Toon> on B and C.
    Create a <Vanilla Race> on F and G.
    Group B, C, F, G with A who boosts them.

    Repeat the process with D/E and H/I.
    A boosts this 2nd group too.

    With RAF, you basically level in 1/3rd the time 1st to 60th.
    But you'd have to do it twice, because B, C, D, E won't get RAF grouped together and boosted by A.
    So your level time is 2/3rd's normal, from 1st to 60th.
    At the cost of (4x Vanilla Wow) plus (4x Transfers per Set/Team).

    End result is much cheaper then Vanilla + Cataclysm + Transfers, on disposable accounts.
    But the leveling speed is 2/3rds of normal per team instead of 1/3rd per team.

    For me, I have zero intention of transferring anything off the disposable vanilla accounts, hence why I'd call them disposable. So no, it's cheaper to use vanilla WoW RAF's x 4 in conjunction with 4 of my primary accounts.

    And as was posted above, in 3.3 they are nerfing AOE so boosting when CC hits won't be nearly effective as it currently is.

    When Cataclysm drops I do plan to make both races; I am however also planning at the moment to do this without Boosting, yet taking advantage of the rested bonus (+) heirloom bonus; its not as good as the 300% you can get with RaF, but I still have so much to finish with my current (3) projects that adding (2) more; both Horde since I have never played anything but Alliance, with Cataclysm will only add to my stress. The Horde side will be my casual enjoy the ride teams…

    8/19/09 Level 62 – Pally (Tank); Priest (Shadow); Shaman (Resto); Mage (Frost); Druid (Balance)
    8/29/09 Level 68 – Pally (Tank); Priest (Shadow); Shaman (Resto); DK (Blood); Druid (Balance)
    9/5/09 Level 72 – Pally (Tank); Priest (Shadow); Shaman (Resto); DK (Blood); Druid (Balance)
    9/19/09 Level 80 – Pally (Tank); Priest (Shadow); Shaman (Resto); Hunter (BM)); Druid (Balance)

    I confused myself. If you are doing RAF you want 4 (or 5) accounts to be getting the 300% bonus. So you could use 3 old accounts and 2 new ones.
