The Paladin and Shaman are coming along nicely, progressing into their 40s and with the Shaman two levels from 50 and a whole new level of professions extension of both Skinning and Leatherworking.
We haven't begun gathering materials but you all know that we'll be starting soon because we love parking toons in cities at those key levels like 20, 35, 50 and cranking their professions right up to max while they gather rest bonus. We enjoy the challenge of finding cheap materials we can use to level while turning them into things that are saleable for more than the materials cost.
One thing Mage and the rest of lowbies now benefit from are in effect hand-me-downs.
How we used to create a special newbie leveling set using non soul-binding white gear with big enchants that were useful for multiple classes and pass the gear from lowbie to lowbie to get then through the first 20 levels without having to worry about death nor gear, there are special items in-game to help speed leveling more.
These days, there are BoA items available for purchase using tokens of various sorts such as Heroism and Valor badges and Stone Keeper's Shards being the three main types.
The various BoA items cover different slots of a toon's gear and while they each have stats on them that you're leveling toons will benefit from. They're magical in that the stats on them scale with your level. This means that they're not as powerful on your lowbies as they are on your level 80 toons but they will grow with your toon and not need replacement either.
The 10% experience gain stat is the main stat. Having this stat on Shoulder slot is great in that real lowbies don't get to fill that slot for many levels in their initial advancement, and so the rest of the damage related stats in that slot are huge bonuses, never mind the 10% bonus for anything killed.
Then you'll know where to go to check out the various types of gear available to those looking to purchase BoA gear that can be used and re-used by lowbie toons.
