Via powerlevel with 2 raf accounts, you can gain 1 level in each 7-10 minutes with a NOT SO GEARED char. It makes 6-8 levels in one hour. If you play/powerlevel your chars (or make them powerleveled by someone else) for 12 hours (half day), it means, you can gain 72-85 levels in half day /played. I even did not count a geared char like a 570+ itemlevel. I am generally powerleveling with my 550+ Lock and i leveled someone from 51-58 in one hour who had %300 elixir. I do not even count the mats i farmed. They were very well around 3-4k. Do the math. It is still a good option to buy a level 90 instant with 483 itemlevel and start gearing a bit more, then farming. BUT if you ask me, it is not better than leveling yourself. If you have lust to farm for about 3-4 hours in a day, in 3 days you can have 2 level 85s. That makes another level 85 on your main account. (and if you grant your levels in %99 xp bar it is ALMOST INSTANT 86) 3 days 3 85s, 21 days 21 85s. Farm the rest of the remaining gametime which equals to 9 days and say hello to your transmuter army. 1 transmute saves 100g (server dependant). 21=2100g per day WITHOUT PROCS. 1 month=63k. Say hello to your free gamecard with only USING YOUR CD.
its simple math.. how much time does it take you to ding to 90 and have the gear you need? how much gold could you have done in that time? if you cover the 50$ fee, congrats, you succesfully avoided the leveling ban and paid the service, maybe you did some extra cash. If not, then no, it is not efficient, but you may still want to do it if you are lazy and want to start making gold asap and decide, paying a little extra is worth it.
I don't use the bot as much anymore, now i mainly use it to raid with.. but i ussualy NEVER use MOP, which saves me for a ton of money.. and i never pay 40 dollars for wow xD r u mad? i spend 5 euro (or something close to that). Overall cost; 5 euro (+ electricity) i make that back before they've hit lvl 85. I don't see the logic in you using the stats for three days, why would you only bot for 3 days and not the 30 you get with battle chests?
Excuse me, but how the hell can you people do 1-85 in one day? Is it via "Recruit a Friend" feature? I'm a noob in HB (and WoW tbh), a year ago i've tried to level free Battle Chest account (a gift to D3 buyers) and it took like ~10 days to get to lvl80 with Kick's questing profiles (a lot of quests had to be done manually due to bugs/stuck). Or is it possible to do 1-85 in a day with single account, without RaF? I found only one 1-90 guide, and it doesn't mention 1-85 in one day.
If you level to 60 using RAF, gain a trade skill... then max it out to that levels "level"... (Max skill profession level) then you could buy the rest for 60 dollars and get a fully ready to go out of the box bot. No need to level trade skills, get gear or anything. Blizzard really introduced a caveat into the system when they gave botters 100$ or less to setup a bot... Most botters take to this easily.
I dont understand why u write wow + mop + 90 for 100$. Atm you can buy bundle battle chest + mop + WoD including 90 boost for 65 euro And atm im buying my accounts ( battle chest + mop ) for 23,5 euros. So if i would buy WoD for one of those, in that case it would make it cost me a total of 68,5 euros.
