I think you guys are mistaken about not having x3 exp anymore, it seems that way now because of how they changed the exp display on quests to show how much your getting before you hand it in. If I look at the amount of exp before my raf is in my party it is always x3 lower then with, and this is as of patch 3.3.

Yes this was brought up and I rechecked ingame. Blizz has re-instated this limitation on level spread, so I have remopved that portion of the article. Sorry for the incovenience folks, it was fun while it lasted.

After reading your article, I went and started my RAF and linked it to my battle net account. I started a level 1 with the recruit account and the vet account. I received 3x xp on quests and kills. I got my 35 shaman out and partied with the recruit I made and parked him in Nesingwary’s camp in STV, but when I turned in a few quests, I still got normal xp.

Just went in game to check and they have put this restriction back in place. When the article was written that restriction was not in place. I will be editing the article to correct this.

I thought the 2 toons that were questing together had to be within a few levels of each other to benefit from the bonus XP. Was that restriction lifted?

What I tend to do, if I have the money, is send a RAF using my veteran account to myself, convert that to a full account then use that account to send myself another RAF and convert that to a full account, I can then level a character on each of the two RAF accounts and use my veteran account to boost when needed. Get say 4 level 60’s on the second RAF account, 2 chars grant 30 levels each to a character on the 1st RAF account and the second 2 do the same to a second character on the 1st RAF account, you then end up with 6 level 60’s on the 1st RAF .. which means you have 180 free levels to grant your veteran account = 3 level 60s .. seems alot of work but quick simple really

Hey Wicked, great article.

I was thinking about this and i believe i’ve come up with another way to make this dominate even more. it may be because i don’t fully understand the RAF system, or it may be well known, i don’t know.

so you send yourself a RAF, lvl the two toons to 20. then make yourself another toon on your veteran account and boost him up to the highest lvl you can.

is this possible? i know its not a huge amount of work getting to lvl 10 with 3x xp. but surely anything to reduce the time spent on the beginner zones is something we all wouldn’t miss.

Thanks,
Tyada
