Now you can't powerlevel two low levelcharacters with a third 70 character through instances with gaining the tripple exp.
source: WoW Forums -> RAF nerfed, thanks a lot

So apparently it's gone from being able to get triple XP if you have a L70 in a group with 2 lower level guys, to not? According to the FAQ, updated today.

Thanks for the flip-flop Blizz. This is terrible, absolutely unacceptable for you to come out and say this feature is "Yes this is how it is intended to work!" and then 3 days later change your minds and say "Nope sorry! lulz!". After quite a lot of people (including myself) bought extra accounts specifically for this feature that you advertised and then confirmed as working.

So where's our compensation for the removed feature? Can we get refunds for these accounts?

Question: I have Account 1 with a level 70, Account 2 with a level 1, and Account 3 with a level 1. Account 2 recruits Account 3. Account 1 groups with 2 and 3, running them through low level instances. Do 2 and 3 get increased XP? The wording of the faq says the mobs must not be grey to the invitee nor the invited, but does not mention whether an unrelated 3rd person of much higher level will break the xp gain.

Answer: Experience would be mitigated by the presence of a higher level character; however, the mitigated experience would be tripled due to the link. Remember, if one of the linked characters is lower than the other, only the lower level one will receive the XP boost.


Now today I see this updated in the FAQ :
Q: How does the bonus experience work?

Let's say we have Account A with a level 70 character, Account B with a level 1 character and Account C with another level 1 character, all three characters are grouped. Account B and Account C are linked, will they receive triple experience?

A: Bonus experience should only be granted if the experience is not trivial to anyone in the group. Our Quality Assurance Team is looking into reports that some of these restrictions are not consistent and hope to resolve the issue soon.


AND I'll point out that the official FAQ on it still says nothing about not granting triple XP if the content is grey to anyone in the party. Blizzard Support

In my opinion this sucks, since I was about to start to multibox.
discuss.
