Cataclysm and RAF and New Servers

> Can I ask why you would not do the same quests on all toons? Just curious as we all hate it, but it's nice x[ and gold.

The reason why I dont do all quests on both toons is that it is very much faster to only do some quests on 1 toon, then just grant a level to the other toon when the 1st toon gets a head. This speeds the 1-60 up by quite a bit. I would generally grant about 10 levels to the 2nd toon from a 1-60..

>Yes I believe it was confirmed that characters will be able to enter another characters phase, though if you are leveling together it shouldn't be a problem.

This would be a problem if the 2nd toon is not doing all the same quests as the first toon. As mentioned, it is definitely slower to have both chars do all quests.

>Not sure about realm firsts, but when a new realm is opened, they always have free transfers from other realms, so I doubt there would be any advantage.
Plus I'm pretty sure they have said there will be no new realms as they have already been added and there are plenty of low pop servers as it is.

Actually, there are 2 types of new realms. 1 is transfer realms, where characters from other servers can free transfer across (to reduce load on another server for example). The other type of new new realms are brand new, non transfer, fresh realms. These are the only realms I am interested in. The last 2 new fresh realms where on the day of WOTLK release. New Fresh Realms have some restrictions, such as NO transfers to the server of any type for 90 days.

Blizzard have NOT said there will be NO new realms. For people like myself, who only enjoy playing on fresh realms (and there are a lot of us), the argument "play on a low pop server" is pretty ignorant as that has nothing to do with what we are looking for. The difference between a brand new, non transfer server and a "low pop server" with a ton of 80s is not even in the same ballpark. I couldnt care less there are a bunch of low pop servers. Not my problem =)

Your RAF questing strategy makes no sense, you need to rethink that. Especially for the economic loss your taking for free gold on a virgin server.

Though frankly 1-60 is so easy I would rethink that as well. Banging out 5 characters with out RAF to 68 is pretty trivial doing the boxable quests for every zone (some amazing fell has a tourguide for this even on these forums, though for cata it will be stale)
