Rift Boxing Compared to WoW?

[Meeo]

How is boxing rift compared to wow?
Had 2 max level chars a while back so I more or less know the game.

Does it have follow and IWT?
Is there something like WoW RAF for leveling?

Any other thoughts/comments will be appreciated.

(Looking for a game to box now that wow has become unfriendly to boxers)

There is an interact and follow command at this time in Rift. Interact will let you talk to the NPCs. I have not tested it for melee combat, i basically have a follow on my main when i attack using melee.

There currently is no RAF style of leveling, its really not needed at the pace you can level doing Instant Adventures.

I personally used to get grief from others for being a bot, but they are just confused to what that means. I just ignore it. in my opinion i run into more adults on Rift then i do kids (personal experience). The game is damn near 100% WoW Style (i say this flightly as i am a x-eq bittervet). There are new aspects that they introduce but nothing a wow player will get confused on.

Some of the animations are "slow-ish" in appearance. But i can care less about "politically correct" animations.

There are some faction and token grinding in the end game, but for the most part its all do-able outside of raiding. Raiding just gives you specific loot+tokens.

With the issues our WoW brothers and sisters are experiencing, ask any questions you like. Im sure the rift crew will be here to help you guys/gals out. Its a sad day when we lose (even partially) a place to play as we choose.
