5x Monks easily with RaF

You will probably run into the instance lockout timer. So you could run one group, then hop on the other and run it and you might not run into the lockout that way by alternating.

I always observed the instance lockout to be account wide

Definitely account wide, tested in july this year so this is not an option.

Sure the lockout is account-wide, but we're talking about 10 accounts, so the lockouts of both teams won't interfere with each other ! Here is a good option ! Thanks

EDIT : I actually forgot one essential thing which is that I have a 10th account from a friend, otherwise I would have been stuck with my scheme !

[heyaz]

Ok then that would work, except the booster account is also subject to the instance lockout. I've tried it before and had my boosted locked out.

[david357]

I don't understand, as now I would have 2 teams of 5 accounts that would never interfere with each other. Each 5-accounts team will be on the same lock-out, or have I forgotten anything ?

Now another idea comes to my mind : I could have team 1 boosted by ACC2 so that there would be only 4 people in the dungeon, does anyone know how it would impact my xp/mob ? I heard that adding low-lvl characters have an impact on average lvl so that it becomes more interesting to boost 4 people instead of 2 for example, is this right ?

Why only 4? You have the two that were recruited, the two that did the recruiting, and a high level booster.

There is a formula for calculating how much exp you get, its in one of the forum posts if you feel like searching for it. Your toons do get less exp per kill because of the higher level toon in the group, and as your toons level up you get more exp instead of less from killing the same level mob.

Based on my experience, running 2 boosters is not as efficient as running single dungeon. So the lockout issue should not be too major. But maybe you are a better player than me, lol.

I think you get group bonus XP with 3 toons or more. Not sure of the detail tho.

Of course, planning to get lockout issue while dual-running would be too optimistic, that's rather for when I won't be able to dual-run or for really fast dungeons (Mona ?) that would be more efficient if single running, I'll see what the better choice while playing !

According to what I've réas about RaF, one of those who did the recruiting could be the booster toon and the recruit would still have 300% xp. That formula might be useful as I only found the one for a group of 2 people on wowhead ! I'll post it if I find it.

Now I'm thinking about optimizing my Battle.net stuff too, since there can only be 8 accounts on it, I plan to have my "RaF-only" accounts on another battle.net but first I could have one of them collect the whole +%xp equipment on my 1st battle.net before moving the account to my "RaF battle net" ! I hope it will work !
