Yup, they just grandfather in upgrades to keep people from having to buy all the intermediate x-packs if they're an existing user.
Okay, I wasn't aware. It's been a while since I've played.
My brother bought me the base game and MoP during the Black Friday sale and told me today that he recruit a friended the account and is going to level me up a rogue for when I get back to visit my family for Christmas. Looking forward to it because I'll be able to stay in touch with him playing the game and I haven't played in a while. He said he's going to get close to 85 by the end of next weekend. Is it really that fast?

The triple xp is almost stupidly ridiculous.
I have done Raf several times over the past 3 or 4 years. All it takes are some BoAs (Which you can get 25% xp fromj ust from a guild vendor, no need for justice for those three) and making sure to have a tank and ideally a healer, but just the tank is fine, in your group.
Getting to 15 is the longest part, I've done 1-80 in a single day with RAF. 1-60 then 60-85 is probably more reasonable though, two long afternoons.
Example of how stupid RaF is: Soon as you hit 15, you queue and get Ragefire chasm. Just the quests and bonus xp from that zone willg et you to 21 or 22 depending on how many BoA's you have. It's that silly. Up to 60, every instance gives you AT LEAST two levels. Ones with lots of quests give more. Only in Wrath does it slow down, and by slow down I mean the random queue bonus is insignificant and each dungeon will only give you 1 or 2 levels
It's pretty heartbreaking.

At least you're getting a level. I just did Violet Hold with a full set of BOAs, no RAF, no rested xp, and only got 4 bars of XP with its 1 quest.

Ragnaros alliance server is weird, so much bald dwarf and male draeneis.
The crafted pvp set is too low level, even the current version. You're honestly better off with real gear, in BGs you get scaled down to 496 and the current tier of crafted is 20 ilevels below that. It's dumb. You can get pve gear higher than 496 easily on the isle or raid finder or whatever, the only piece that is really at a disadvantage to being PvE in many situations is the weapon, so buy that first with honor. Obviously pvp gear IS better, but the 476 crafted shit is just that, shit.
For some added hilarity yesterday, I decided to go on a rampage on the Timeless Isle with the Censer on hopes of getting Bloody Coins.
Frankly, I did REALLY well. (Mostly, because I'm opportunistic and an asshole.)
Messed around with doing that for about an hour and got like 30 Coins, while pissing off 3/4 of the people on the Isle.
Ended up teaming up with a Bear Druid towards the end, and we were just racking up kills.
(It did get funny at points where 2-3 people would try and gang up on us only to lose.)

Depends of your class or gear.
My lvl 86 elemental chaman with the Chi'ji buff killed a pack of worms with lightning chain in a few seconds for more than 200k xp each time. Crane mobs too.
My frost mage kitted mobs easily. My warrior tank had problems at first. I'd probably not give a shot as a priest.
If you're going for the worms, use a strategy to avoid the poison at all costs. For cranes it's a bit more difficult.
Otherwise wait a bit. At least at lvl 88 you shouldn't have problems anyway if you're geared with blues and in one hour or so you'll be 90.
You can also team up with another player. It'll be easier and should compensate the loss of xp.
You know, that's actually pretty cool of them.
I hate you.

Man I stealthed through and killed Baron on my rogue at least, I dunno, at least 400 times it has to have been, around mid TBC. Haven't tried since. Traumatized. Grats!
Yep, I am bursty as fuck now. Doing WAY more damage. Only downside is I keep pulling non-red mobs due to all that AOE.
Wow, just did a heroic Scarlet with a boomkin, destro lock, shaman healer, monk tank and my frost dk. Killed Fireweaver in 20 seconds. Killed armsmaster before he could even call for help

What class are you? If it's possible just go tank spec.
I'm a druid and usually go bear form when I cross over there farming my lesser coins.I am trying it on my Warrior in arms spec. Only level 86 though not the best of gear. I had issues with prot spec as well. I think I either need a level or two higher or better gear.What class are you? If it's possible just go tank spec.
Yeah, I created one on Draenor EU, holy shit. It's so empty.
OOOOOOH lvl 86 got ya. XD Yeah that would probably be rough goings.
The crafted set IS garbage for PVP. But man is it bad as shit looking.
I have trouble with Timeless on my 90 warrior.

I've been healing on my Paladin in SoO LFR with no less than six blue pieces of gear. 480 ilvl in Holy spec, using Ret pieces to meet the minimum requirement. But they're all fully enchanted, gemmed and reforged! Even so, it almost got me kicked, until I pointed out that I was dispelling more than anyone else. Then they let it slide..
Even with 9k spirit, though, I am pretty much always out of mana. It's ridiculous.

My holy paladin in 531 item lvl have 10260 spirit, and i never get close of running out of mana in LFR. In fact, its almost always above 250k. Not sure what you're doing wrong. You shouldnt be spamming Flash of Light and Holy Radiance all the time if that's what you're doing.
Also, i found out that the Selfless Healer talent is pretty great. After 3 Judgments, my Holy Radiance, Flash of Light and Divine Light are instant, free of mana and heal a lot more.
Do you have the legendary meta? It seems like most of my mana goes into the dispels, they're expensive. I do use Holy Radiance when I get a proc and the raid needs it, which is pretty much always the case in the first couple of wings of SoO. Then follow it up with a Holy Shock on the same target.
I do tend to overheal a lot, since I'm used to the older style of Paladin healing that just chain-casts Holy Light to depend on Illuminated Healing for the absorbs. If I look at Icy-Veins now, they are recommending some very strange things, like using Crusader Strike on the boss. I don't know if I could be comfortable doing that, I'm not a Monk..
I do have the meta, but i find that i rarely had mana issues even before i got it. But yeah... i dont overheal at all and don't dispel that much to be honest. Still doesnt stop me to be near the top of healing meters in LFR.

It's Kovok, but not the pet, just the quest follower that you feed and stuff. Leveling my rogue =P
The urge to go Engineering is rising greatly....
Good news, it's tradeable. Bad news, it will cost you.
Nawwwt. Goblin males do.
I know, I just don't wanna spend 30k or whatever on it.
I'd rather just go and level up Engineering and make it myself with all the other mounts.
