Greeting everyone I have a question on a technique called "Drafting". My
regular group of friends I group with don't want me to fall to far behind on xp
while I am out for my son's impending birth (my wife would kill me if I attempt
to play for the first month).

I was told that with the new xp changes that you can group with a higher level
player in my case a 53 shaman whose toons I group with would take my bard and
group. He would then procedd to solo mobs and let me get the xp.

The figures I saw (in an email) says the lower level character could "draft" or
ride the xp off of the higher level shaman. They are estimating the lower level
would get about 40% of the xp from such a scenario.

Opinions on powerleviling and recent discussion on mediocre players aside (I
have played EQ since it came out and have several characters in the 20's and
30's) would this form of powerleveling be an option? Or is the math wrong?

Thanks for any input.
