Make a group and use your summon ability to get both toons
together, find a mailbox and load up on BOA gear (these make a huge difference
so make sure you got 4 boa for each toon). Don’t worry about plate for plate
wearers and mail for mail wearers, my first RaF pair were a warrior and priest
and I used cloth BoA and leather BoA on the warrior.

Spending talent points!
Think defensively when spending points, on my warrior I went
prot and on the priest shadow. Shadowform and extra defences for being prot
really help out, sometimes your lowbie alts will get agro if they can take a
hit or two before dieing then this is of great benefit to you. Alvin
is a pure dps so can only res using Guild perks so deaths really slow you down.
This is most noticeable when I took level 61 Theodore and 61 Simon into heroic
ramparts where there are 71 elites which chomp through 61’s fast.
Go ahead and add all three characters to the same guild, you can get
guild rep and guild achievements.
1-10 Questing
I had Simon follow Theodore because I have better caster
boa’s (staff/trinkets) equipped on him. Make sure to accept quests on both
(playing in windowed mode and alt-tabbing between the two characters).
10 -16 Deadmines
Deadmines entrance… I got lost I’ll admit it, I have not
been into Deadmines since vanilla.
I used this youtube video to get to the entrance.
Use the macros!
Simon uses:
/follow Alvin
Theodore uses:
/follow Alvin
Alvin clears the dungeon, the tricky part is the bit with
the parrots and avoiding the cannon damage, focus on killing the flying
monsters of death first and take your time on the cannons, pausing so you don’t
get knocked off into the water (record knocked off four times in one run). From
here clear as normal making sure not to leave Simon or Theodore left behind stuck
on a cannon or corner, make sure they are following you!
Run back to the entrance reset and repeat, pick up any
quests when you can they provide a lot of extra xp.
16 – 22 Stockades
You can move over to stockades at 15 but I stayed till 16 to
finish off quests and I don’t like abandoning a dungeon clear midway through.
Be careful of the patrolling mobs, but other than that
pretty straightforward, clear both sides and reset. Pick up quests when you can.
22 – 36 Scarlet Monastery
This is pre –patch when I get more info I will update it but
for now here is how I experienced SM pre-patch.
Do not reset dungeon until you have cleared library, armoury
and cathedral. Keep an eye out for chests in library and armour they can
contain gems, recipes and transmog items. Don’t leave till you have done all
the quests. In Sm: Cath when you all get put to sleep this breaks the /follow
so before Alvin
leaves I had to press those follow macros again on Simon and Theodore.
36-42 Scholomance
Loads of quests here but you can’t grab them straight away.
In the last room drop Simon and Theodore at the top of the stairs, take Alvin and clear all 5
rooms of trash and mini-bosses (3 up stairs and 2 down stairs). Kill Alexei which
will summon Gandling.
Run out and reset, check there might be a rare spawn if you
open the door at the entrance great for XP.
42 – 48 BRD
From entrance take a left, open the door and head towards
Bael’Gar lots of packs here great for xp, head back to the entrance and clear
everything in this area. I skip the arena event because it really slows you
down. Instead head towards General Angerforge. Kill everything in the bar and
keep going. Kill The Seven and take a right towards the Molten Core entrance,
there are 10-11 level 56 fire elemental here to kill. The Lycueum is too much
trouble so turn around and go back to the area above the arena. Kill all these spectators and make your way
towards pyromancer loregrain and clear the vault area and move towards Lord Incedious,
from here go back to the entrance. Reset and repeat. The XP is fantastic, I
did’nt do any quests before I was ready to move on to Blackrock spire.
48 - 57 LBRS + UBRS
Clear lbrs and then run back towards ubrs entrance, clear
everything, grab the Jenkins title while you are here. Repeat and reset. Pick
up quests at the entrance.
57 – 65 Hellfire dungeons normal and heroic
Clear ramparts until you get to 60, and then do heroic
ramparts. If you are spreading out the RAF’ing over a few days just log in and
do one normal and one heroic for a few days to get to 65. Otherwise keep doing
normals, do the quests and you will 65 and ready to move onto shattered halls.
65-67 Shattered halls
Ok I died a lot in here, you will agro a whole room with
12-15 mobs so be ready to drop some serious AOE and if you root a mob it will
attack the nearest player irrelevant of agro. There are sneaky orc rogues that
will sap you and proceed to kill Simon and Theodore so make sure you have a pvp
trinket ready just in case you don’t see one until it is too late!
Quests give insane xp, 160k -180k xp per quest. I got to 67
in 2 runs.
This is where I am currently I will be moving over to Northrend but first I pulled Simon and Theodore to SW to learn flying, learn some spells and get bigger/
more bags.
