    Default Boosting question before I setup new accts

    Hi, I used to multibox in TBC and I am ready to do it again.
    I want to boost 4 players with my T9-T10 Prot paladin.

    I saw the post below that I am going to copy and paste.

    I thought you could boost if the booster wasn't in the Raf association.
    Acct A refers b,c,d Acct z(totally diff battlenet acct) Is the lvl 80 doing the boosting.

    But reading below it has me confused.




    ================================================== ============================
    Common RAF Setups.
    A --> BCDE

    This setup is where A sends out 4 invites to your e-mail address, 4 new accounts are created and linked to Account A. This method is useful if you want to grant the MOST RAF Levels to the one account. You would only use this method if you were intending to create multiple teams of 60's and level them together all the time. If any character in the party that is part of the RAF link breaks the 4 level difference rule the RAF will break. This means you cannot use a 80 to boost in this scenario.
    This gives the most rewards possible to Account A. Once you use Summon Friend once on this RAF setup it is on cooldown for the other 3 characters, not very useful really.

    A -> B -> C -> D -> E

    A Refers B. Account B is created and upgraded. B refers C. Account C is created and upgraded. Account C refers D. And so on. This spreads out RAF levels in a staggered effect and isn't as useful for creating lots of teams without doing some character transfers later. This setup is most popular as it lets you use a 80 character on the A account for boosting. This works because as long as B & C are within 4 levels of each other it doesn't matter that A and B link is broken. A can summon B who can summon C who can summon D who can summone E etc. This is useful for boosting in instances that are hard to get to like Sunken Temple or Scholomance/Stratholme.

    If A is the booster, and your set up is:

    A -- RAF Linked to -- B
    A -- RAF Linked to -- C

    Etc.

    Then none of the toons will have a working RAF, since each is only linked to A, and A is the booster.




    If however you go with:

    A -- B -- C -- D etc..

    A can be the booster.
    And B still gets RAF because B is linked to C.



    To get RAF bonus, you need:
    a) To be directly RAF linked to an account you are grouped with; and
    b) To be within +/- 4 levels of that account; and
    c) For both of you to be level 59 or lower; and
    d) For the mob/quest to not be grey to either toon; and
    e) To be within a certain proximity of the other toon.

    The A (Booster) -- B... Link does not qualify B.
    However, the B -- C -- D -- E.... Links (all toons being boosted) do qualify.
    So they all get RAF.
    B on the basis of the link to C.
    C because of the links to B and D.
    E because of the link to D.
