Chained RAF can someone make it clear?

[Ualaa]

Basically create an Orc (horde) or Human (alliance), on the disposable RAF account.
And take your keeper toon to places the disposable toon can go, and group with them 1st to 60th.

You can even use the RAF summon ability to get your lowbie from Exodar/Silvermoon to Stormwind/Orgrimmar.

Hmmm I am concerned about my main acc getting the levels.

Assume A-B-C-D-E I get lvel 60 so I can

Add 30 Levels from E to
Add 45 Levels from D to C
Add 52 levels from C to B
Add 56 Levels from B to A so on Acc A i get to 56 levels

If I use A-B, A-C, A-D, A-E I get 30 Levels from every Acc meaning for one levelled Team I get 120 Levels on Acc A for one Team.

WHere am I worng now believeing that RAF A-B-C-D-E is not better ?

Ceers, Jens

Zeratul - I believe that would only work... if A recruited B-E
its a one way deal, the recruited can give the recruiter levels. (half of what ever they earn (up to level 60)
but of course as already stated you can give some from E ... so E has 15 to give then C has 7 to give and B has 3 to give.

A- Level 60 GIVES NOTHING. - gets.. total of 55
B- Level 60 gives 30^ + 15^ + 7 + 3
C- Level 60 gives 30^ + 15^ + 7
D- Level 60 gives 30^ + 15^
E- Level 60 gives 30^

so accounts would have a
A- Level 60 & 55
B- Level 60 & 52
C- Level 60 & 45
D- Level 60 & 30
E- Level 60

Partial quote from another post of mine.

We're going to say A is the high level boosting account, and BCDE are all lowbies being boosted.

If:

A > BCDE

...then the boosting will not work with 300% increased XP seeing as they're all linked to the high level, in turn, they're not 3 levels within their linked account(s).

If:

A > B > C > D > E

...then boosting works fine because B is within 3 levels of C and C is within 3 levels of D, etc.

I'm going to assume you're boosting with a high level because you're concerned about granting levels to your main account. So example 1 won't work if you're boosting. Example 2 or something similar is the only way to boost. If you're leveling them the long way then you'll have 60's on each account. Unless you're just looking to have some lone 60's on your main account [with minimal groups being leveled] then example 2 is recommended.

If you are starting boxing and you want to have a lot of toons spread across all your accounts, and you are starting with only 1 old/main account (A), then you should chain your RAF links

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

This gives you cascading levels through your accounts and helps minimize the leveling you have to do.

NOTE: Always grant from your lowest level first when granting. If you have a 30 and a 60 on acct D and are starting to grant to C, use the 30. Grant the 30's 15 levels first then use the 60 to grant its 30 levels. If you do it the other way, you wont be able to use the level 30 on D to grant because the toon on C is level 30 as well. You have to grant to toons lower than the one attempting to grant levels.



If however you are boxing to quickly level some characters on your single main account you would want to link all characters to your main account. Then you can toss these 'disposable' accounts and never use them again.

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

Then you can get 2 free 60s for each team up to 60 you level. If you do 3 teams to 60 you would end up with 9 60s on your main account. Nice way for a solo player to get a ton of 60s in a month or so on a new realm if you have a bunch of $5 vanilla WoW's and don't mind paying the $60/month for the quick leveling. If you can do the 3 groups in a month, $60 might be well worth it to you.

For RAF (3x EXP) to work, each of these conditions must be true:
a) You are grouped with an toon directly linked to your account;
b) You are within a certain physical range of that toon;
c) You are within +/- four levels of that toon;
d) You are both level 59 or lower;
e) The mob/quest is not grey to either of you.

In the case of:
A -- B
A -- C
A -- D
A -- E
Each account only has their A -- X link, which means A must fulfill all of the five RAF conditions with each boosted account, or there will be no RAF.
If you were to character transfer your booster to one of BCDE, and boost with that toon... then the lowbie on A, grouped with four other lowbies would all receive RAF.

In the case of an:
A -- B -- C etc...
Even if A is level 80, and BC are level 22, B and C can both receive RAF.
Since the A/B link fails due to more then +/- four levels, and because A exceeds 59th level...
B is entirely reliant on the B/C link for RAF.
But if B/C meets all five conditions, then they both get RAF even if the A/B link fails.

And each account can only grant levels to the referring account to which they are directly linked.

Also, for the cascading levels to work out as full toons, you need to boost two toons per link.
Consider:
A -- B -- C
A -- B -- D
A -- B -- E
If A were to boost four toons on BCDE.
B (to A), C (to B), D (to B) and E (to B) each give two full toons (30 levels x4 = 120/60 = 2 toons).
B received six toons (two each from C/D/E), which is 360 levels, so it can grant 180 levels (180 /60 = 3 toons) to A, based on levels it has received.

However if A were to only boost 3 toons, the cascading levels would not add up to a full toon.
C/D/E each give B ninety levels, which is a three full 60's and three 30's.
The 60's can each give A thirty levels, and being 60's can grant levels even to level 59 toons.
However the three 30's can each only give 15 levels, and cannot grant levels to toons of 30th level or higher.

If you want the cascading levels to add up to full levels, boost two toons per hop in the links (counting from the first account you care about).
In an:
A -- B -- C -- D
...... B -- E
Where A has 10 full toons at 60+ already (so cannot receive any granted levels).
You are only concerned with what B can receive.
Counting from B, we have two hops to D and one hop to E.
So four or eight toons would be ideal.
And it is worth recruiting from A still, due to the Zhevra mount and free month when B pays for their 1st and 2nd months respectively.

Ah thats the point somewhere above:

I am not using a high level to boost, I am levelling 5 chars at a time. As said before my goal is to push my main acc. So if I play 1 group of 5 up, i get one level 60 playing, and 2 by granting level from accs B-E. (all are bound to A this is also why I get the 300%, cause my Acc A toon is new as well...) I am not an old player, I played for a few month then pause, and now I am boxing...

Still tings seem to change once played boxing, its hard to have no one behind you ;-)
