Quick question:

[Broomba37]

I have created a DK and he is almost 60, I also created 4 other lower toons on the same realm but on different accounts. The DK is on Account A -- main one, and the lower ones are on Account B, C, D, E. A recruited B,C, D, and E. When my DK reaches level 60, how many levels can he grant and to how many toons? Also, can my other Accounts grants levels too and to how many?

Thanks

Only the lave accounts can grant levels to the account that recruited them.

So all 4 of your sub-accounts will be able to grant 1 level to Account A for every 2 levels (up to level 60) they a toon on B,C,D, or E earns.

For example...
If you level a single character to 60 on each account for B, C, D, and E they would each be able to grant 30 levels to account A (so A would receive 120 levels, or 2 free level 60 toons)

If you have already created the accounts, and done the RAF invites...
With this type of set up:
A -- B
A -- C
A -- D
A -- E

For B, C, D or E to get RAF experience (3x normal), they need to:
1) be grouped with A.
2) be within 4 levels of A.
3) be 59th level or lower, with A also being 59th level or lower.
4) have everything killed be at least green, to both themselves and A.

For every even level gained on B, C, D and E, they can each give one level to A. If you create a DK on B-E, they start at 55th, so the first even level gained is 56th.



Your best option will be to transfer the DK to one of the other accounts; I assume $25 to transfer one toon is not that large of an investment, given you are already paying $75 a month to play, and not doing so will effectively cripple your RAF investment of 4 accounts.
Let's say the DK is on "B".

Then boost away, DK booster on B, new groups on A, C, D and E.

Group all five and quest to 10th, destroying everything with the DK.

Alliance:
10th to 16th - Deadmines
16th to 20th - Stockades

Horde:
10th to 20th - Shadow Fang Keep

Everyone:
20th to 45th - Scarlet Monastery
45th to 55th - Stratholme
55th to 60th - Ramparts

Boost as far as you can with the DK, but once you can no longer "solo" an instance, switch to level appropriate quests.
With a 60th DK, you'll get the toons to at least 45th, with ease.
And quests designed for a solo toons, won't be an issue with 4x Appropriate Level Toons and a DK 60.

You might want to consider running the DK through most of Hellfire, as the gear is a huge upgrade to what you start with, both in terms of survivability and damage output.



I'd suggest leveling several toons to 60th, while you have RAF.
Probably 1-2 "all caster" sets, and at least 1 "all melee" set.
Possibly a mixed team as well.

Ideally, you'd want a tank capable character on each account.
Paladins are the easiest tank to use as a boxer, and DK's are the hardest, but any tank class can work.

You'd also want a healer option for each account.
That gives you a lot of flexibility down the road, when you make teams.

A variety of classes is good to pick from.
But, having 4x or 5x one class stacked is strong too.

Popular groups seem to be:
4x Paladin (Ret) + 1x DK (Frost/Blood).
4x Shaman (Elem) + 1x Paladin (Prot).
4x Rogue + 1x Druid (Resto/Feral).
5x Druid (all Balance or 3x Balance, 1x Feral, 1x Resto).
3x DPS, 1x Tank, 1x Healer.
4x DPS (who can heal), 1x Tank.

Anything you think might be fun to play, is worth trying.
You can get a group to 60th, in under a week even playing casually with RAF.



And for every 60th you boost with B, on A, C, D and E.
C, D and E, each grant 30 levels to A.

So for every two teams boosted to 60th, you end up with:
A: 2x 60's (leveled) + 3x 60's (from granted levels).
C: 2x 60's (leveled)
D: 2x 60's (leveled)
E: 2x 60's (leveled)

Given "A" will only have 10 character slots, unless you are doing transfers, four sets boosted is the maximum before A runs out of slots.
(4x 60's from levels + 6x 60's from granted levels = 10x 60's).

I'd really consider granting levels on A, of the same classes which were boosted by B, on A, C, D and E.
And to then transfer that toon to B.
Which gets you one of each class, on each of the five accounts.
And you don't finish RAF, with 4-6 toons on C, D and E, 10 toons on A, and 1 toon on B.
