Would this tactic work and is it legal?

Yes, outside of instances, tag boosting is perfectly legal. I believe they changed it and you would have to aggro with the lowbies, and then you can kill it with the higher level toon. You either need to kill stuff crazy fast with the high level, or do more damage from the lowbies. I believe exp gained is proportional to the amount of damage that they do.

Was not aware that it was called 'tagging'. I saw that a (apparently famous) player (athene) got banned doing that when the WoTL was released. So they changed that and it's considered legal now? Sweet

So basically I should lead my team with lowlevel B, /follow lowlevels CDE, all in group with B, and then A (my lvl 60) follows E. And then just run into a mob with B, and fire a light bold/chain light with my 60 to whack the mob(s). And then BCDE should get full raf xp? Sounds like a plan to me :P

A good trick for RAF grinding is to use a high lvl class that has a "pet"...........warlock, hunter....ever shaman's totems count as pets. As long as you have more than one low lvl grouped together and tag the mob first......a lvl 80 pet(non-grouped) can kill the mob and your lower lvl gets full xp.

Why should my pet (totem in my case) kill the mob instead of my 60? Is it xp related? That seems like a lot of trouble to me, as the damage dealing totems have a rather limited range. But i guess i miss something ...

With all of the ways your xp gets nerfed ... just keep them grouped and instance pull your teams.

The other day I ran into Ragefire Chasm to try that out. 4x lvl 60 and 1 lvl 8 or 9 (all within raf), for killing a mob I got 2 xp on the low level. I left, re- grouped with 1 lvl 60 and the low level (both within raf) and got 8 or 12 xp (i forgot what it was and i dont know the xp math). Figured it would take a couple of years at that rate. But i'm sure i'm missing something here, as I read everywhere how 'good' instance boosting is.

Thanks for the help
