| + | ==Character Information: Koilie== |
||
| − | '''Character towing''' is a term used to describe the process of power leveling a character through the use of a second account and a character that is of a much higher level than the subject character. Character towing, executed properly, can net the subject character large amounts of experience, gold, and items within the shortest amount of time. Some older MMO players may refer to this process as "power leveling my alt with my (friend's) main", but it means the same thing as towing. |
||
| − | The goal of this guide is to help you level a character, through the use of a second high-level character that you already own, thus leveraging the time investment in your main character to create a second high-level character in the minimum time possible. This technique is feasible for either [[Alliance]] or [[Horde]] characters of any [[class]]. |

| + | '''Koilie''', also known as [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/Illidan/Koilie/ Koilie] [http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=4584/the-light-of-dawn the Light of Dawn] is a Blood Elf Priest (Going Goblin in Cata!) currently residing on the US server [http://www.wowwiki.com/Server:Illidan_US Illidan].

||
| − | == Getting Started == |
||
| − | === Towing Experience Formula === |
||
| − | * The experience formula for character towing is unknown at this time, but there is a point that the level difference between the towing character and towee character results in the towee only receiving 1 experience point per kill as well as an upper cap to the mob level difference that nets no additional experience. |
||
| + | The new look as soon as race change to Goblin opens in Cataclysm! (This is Koilie on the Beta) |
||
| − | === Towing Character Level, Towee Character Level vs. Mob Level === |
||
| − | ===== Towing Character Level ===== |
||
| − | * The ideal level difference between the Towing character should be enough that the mobs being killed are of a trivial (gray) level difference. This ensures that the Towing character is absorbing the least amount of available experience from the Towed character. |
||
| + | [http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l543/Koilie/GoblinWings.jpg Goblin Koilie] |
||
| − | ===== Towed Character Level vs. Mob Level ===== |
||
| − | * The ideal level of mobs to tow a lower level character through would be no higher in level compared to the towee than the amount of levels below that character that they could get experience from on by killing on their own their own. The reason for this is that if you kill characters above this threshold you are slowing down the towing process, because these higher level mobs will take longer to kill while only granting a trivial amount of additional experience if any over what killing the recommended level difference mobs would net. |
||
| + | ===Guild History=== |
||
| − | ===== Minimum Level of Towee ===== |
||
| − | *The minimum level for effective character towing is unknown at this time. Further research needs to be completed in this arena to come to a conclusive result. Please submit any information to this article for inclusion. |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | == Methods of Character Towing == |
||
| − | ==== Overworld Grinding ==== |
||
| − | * This practice involves putting the towed character on auto-follow on the main character and killing in the Overworld (non-instance) areas. |
||
| + | '''Koilie''' is currently an Officer in the guild [http://www.excessivegaming.net Excessive Gaming]. The guild is was created on February 5th 2010 midway through progression into '''Icecrown Citadel''', the final true dungeon of the '''Wrath of The Lich King''' expansion. On July 12th 2010 eG, after months of hard work and practice, defeated '''The Lich King''' in 25 player Heroic Difficulty securing their place as a top Horde guild. Ending the expansion with an impressive spot as realm #3 and US# 67 after only forming 5 months earlier and climbing through the ranks to knock out many other top contenders. '''Koilie''' participated in the guilds first kills of Heroic Sindragosa, Heroic Putricide and Heroic The Lich King. |
||
| − | ===== Limitations of Overworld Grinding ===== |
||
| − | * '''Competition''' - It is highly unlikely on older realms that you will be able to locate an area where there are no other players competing with you for spawns. |
||
| − | * '''Separation''' - Mobs in the Overworld have a set patrolling area, but are generally much further spaced apart than mobs in instances. |
||
| − | * '''Experience Yield''' - The amount of experience that is earned by killing Overworld mobs is not sufficient to justify this technique over the use of instance towing. What you gain in safety for your towed character you lose in experience gained per hour. |
||
| − | ==== |
+ | ====Exodus==== |
| − | * This is the same as Overworld towing, but is strictly carried out via the use of dungeon instanced content in the game world. Instance towing is enjoyable and provides many additional benefits when compared to Overworld towing, while eliminating its limitations. |
||
| + | Exodus on Shadow Council US was '''Koilie's''' home for about a year. Joining during the early days of the expansion '''Koilie''' progressed through the entry content including '''Naxxramas''', '''Eye of Eternity''' and '''"Sarth 3d"'''. Next came Ulduar. Arguably the best raid instance of the expansion. Progression into Ulduar was slow at first as the guild had recently suffered the loss of some of its key players, but after some serious recruiting they were back on their feet and slowly climbing towards a realm 1st spot. Toward the end of Ulduar progression as they were closing in on the #1 spot, the current title holder, a guild called Ruin, disbanded. In one day the competition was removed and the path was clear. Exo took the Realm first achievment for Ulduar's Algalon, got our Drakes and awaited the release of Trial of the Crusader. We achieved the Realm First for this instance as well earning the Grand Crusader titles. '''Koilie''' unfortunately missed out on both realm first kills due to internet instability at the time. Finally ICC came out. The internet issues had been resolved shortly before its release and '''Koilie''' was able to gear up in ToGC before ICC went live. They quickly blazed through the normal mode content taking realm first kills for all the end wing bosses as well as The Lich King. Thus began the Heroic modes. At this point no other guild on the server were even in the competition for realm 1st. Exo cleared 5/12 hard modes in ICC 25 before the release of the 5% Hellscream's Warsong zonewide buff. Including the very difficult Deathbringer Saurfang encounter which before the buff and a few tweaks was very unforgiving. Exodus' reign eventually came to an end though as a dispute between the GM and another officer resulted in the guild splitting up into factions and soon after disbanding. Final score 7/12 Heroic ICC 25. The tragic end of a Dynasty. |
||
| − | * A 2-character run (one level 70, the other level 30, for example) through Scarlet Monastery can net as much as 7900-9000 NON-rested experience, PER WING, and can be accomplished in as little as 10-15 minutes each, depending on class, spec, etc. Rested experience bonus would obviously double this. With roughly 40,000 XP required to level at L30, the ability to clear the instance quickly can have a massive impact on leveling speed, in this scenario. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===== Additional Benefits of Instance Towing ===== |
||
| − | * '''Experience Bonus''' - Killing mobs in a dungeon has an associated experience bonus when compared to killing the same level of elite mob in the Overworld. This over time nets a considerable amount of experience in excess of what could be obtained in the same about of time killing overworld mobs. |
||
| + | ====Iniquitous==== |
||
| − | * '''Coin Drops''' - Generally speaking, the amount of coin dropped by an elite mob far exceeds the amount dropped by a non-elites of the same level. This fact can offset the supply expenses associated with character towing such as equipment repairs and potions for use by the towing character. |
||
| + | Iniquitous was '''Koilie's''' very own guild. Originally created during The Burning Crusade expansion when Koilie was not koilie the priest, but rather a Rogue. Her first "main". The guild was a strong group of raiders primarily intent on 10 man content in The Burning Crusade. They raided Karazhan, Zul' Aman and occasionally Gruul's Lair. The guild disbanded temporarily and was reformed later when Koilie had main switched to the new priest and decided to gear her up, but alas real life issues eventually forced her to relinquish command of the guild and stop playing. Atfer a long break and the release of the new expansion Koilie returned. Dusted off the priest and began reforming Iniquitous. Progressing through 10 man content quickly downing all but "sarth 3d". Realizing that she was a much better player than many she grouped with Koilie decided to expand her horizons and applied to her RL friends guild Exodus on Shadow Council. Thus starting a career that would lead her to becoming one of the top 20 Disc priests in the world. |
||
| − | * '''Twinking Gear''' - Since dungeons are the place that you acquire the best items in the game, it would make sense to spend as much time in the instances as possible to maximize the quality of the towed characters gear. Where this fact really shines is in that since we are always clearing a dungeon that has mobs of at least 1 to 6 levels over that of the towed character, it is quite easy to supply your towed characters gear requirements. We achieve this by having him loot all blue off of the bosses and banking any items that would eventually be beneficial to that character. It is typical in this practice to be able to keep your character geared out in superior quality greens and blues during the entire leveling process. |
||
| + | ====Sealab==== |
||
| − | * '''Loot Surplus''' - Every dungeon provides loot of a superior quality when compared to drops of the same level from non-elite / non-boss mobs. This higher quality gear sells for a larger amount of coin when it is sold to a vendor. So any item drops off of bosses that do not fit with the character that is leveling that are flagged as "Binds on Pickup" can be sold to a vender to cover the accelerated rate of training costs associated with character towing. "Binds on Equip" items should be sold at the [[Auction House]] to maximize profit, especially those that are blue or better in quality |
||
| + | Sealab was Koilie's first raiding guild back before Koilie the priest even existed and there was Koils the Rogue. Progression included Tier 4 content and ZA. |
||
| − | == Best Towing Classes == |
||
| − | The following class types are the better classes to use in the towing process as the lead character. |
||
| − | === [[AoE]] Classes === |
||
| − | Any character class that is capable of hitting multiple mobs at one time will produce the fastest results while towing as they can gather mobs and kill them at a rate that far exceeds other classes. The best towers can clear an entire lower-level instance in 1-2 pulls. As the level of the instance ascends, however, some AoE classes (especially the cloth-wearing ones) will have a harder time killing large groups of mobs before they get themselves killed. Further, with too many mobs attacking caster classes, casting even fast spells can take a very large amount of time without a shield of some kind (like [[Power Word: Shield]]). |
||
| + | ====Shadow Stalkers==== |
||
| − | * [[Paladin]] - With AoE and reactive damage from an [[Paladin_builds#AoE_Grinding|AoE grinding spec]], Paladins are probably the most popular towing class.{{fact}} A paladin can gather up large groups of mobs and use [[Seal of Wisdom|Seal]]/[[Judgement of Wisdom]] with [[Consecrate]] to maintain mana while AoEing large groups of mobs. |
||
| − | ** [[Consecrate]] |
||
| − | ** [[Blessing of Sanctuary]] |
||
| − | ** [[Retribution Aura]] |
||
| − | ** [[Holy Shield]] |
||
| − | ** [[Holy Light]] |
||
| − | ** [[Flash of Light]] |
||
| − | ** [[Divine Protection]] |
||
| + | SS was the leveling guild koilie was in while leveling her first "main" The first guild. Where it all began... |
||
| − | * [[Druid]] - While not a traditional AoE class, the druid posses an AoE in the form of [[Swipe]]. Since [[Patch 3.0.2]], it hits everything in front of the druid and to either side. Depending on the spec, a druid can make an excellent tower. Specifically, a well-geared [[Feral]]-spec druid has the benefit of using [[Improved Leader of the Pack]] to continuously keep healing themselves while towing lower level characters through instances. A decently well-geared level 70 feral druid in bear form can pull large numbers of mobs and maintain nearly '''full health and rage''' simply through [[Swipe|swiping]] continuously. Depending on the druid's gear, this can be done in instances up to [[Zul'Farrak]], [[Maraudon]], or even higher. In these higher level instances, if the druid has enough [[attack power]], they can potentially outpace a Protection-spec Paladin while towing while avoiding the need for mana or normal healing. |
||
| + | ===Alts=== |
||
| − | * [[Priest]] - With [[Holy Nova]] a priest can heal and AOE even at the same time (though since it causes no threat, this will not keep mobs off the towee). |
||
| − | ** [[Binding Heal]] |
||
| − | ** [[Flash Heal]] |
||
| − | ** [[Greater Heal]] |
||
| − | ** [[Heal]] |
||
| − | ** [[Holy Nova]] |
||
| − | ** [[Mind Blast]] |
||
| − | ** [[Power Word: Shield]] |
||
| − | ** [[Psychic Scream]] |
||
| − | ** [[Renew]] |
||
| + | All of Koilie's Alt toons |
||
| − | * [[Mage]] - Mages have many AOE spells that lend to fast towing of lower level characters. |
||
| − | ** [[Arcane Explosion]] |
||
| − | ** [[Blast Wave]] |
||
| − | ** [[Blizzard]] |
||
| − | ** [[Cone of Cold]] |
||
| − | ** [[Dragon's Breath]] |
||
| − | ** [[Flamestrike]] |
||
| − | ** [[Frost Nova]] |
||
| + | ====Koiile==== |
||
| − | * [[Warlock]] - I have a lot of experience towing character with a SL/SL lock (Aff would work great as well), and Ive found that for all instances before ZF the best way to for me to tow was to use siphon life and corruption and maybe CoA if necessary (sometimes only siphon life will do). Siphon life will out-heal the dps of most mobs before ZF, so you are constantly healing and able to life-tap at will. The strength of a lock for towing is that he is able to "AoE" via dots. SoC can also be very useful for pulls where lots of mobs are bunched together. If you get the timing down on the GCDs you can literally dot everything while running through only stopping for larger groups. The only drawback I can think of for this strat is the large repair bill. For my pet i just use imp for the stam buff until the I actually need to use VW to tank. |
||
| + | '''Koiile''' is also a Priest although this one is a troll priest. Created with the intent of being a Shadow priest primarily. [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/Illidan/Koiile/ Koiile's Armory] |
||
| − | * [[Shaman]] - Shaman have several spells and totems for dealing with more than one mob at a time |
||
| − | ** [[Chain Lightning]] |
||
| − | ** [[Fire Nova Totem]] |
||
| − | ** [[Magma Totem]] |
||
| − | ** [[Searing Totem]] |
||
| − | === |
+ | ====Koii==== |
| − | DPS classes are the next best choice to an AoE class for character towing as their high damage output can outpace a bad pull when fighting lower-level mobs. |
||
| − | * [[Hunter]] - The ability to use a pet to hold aggro, utilize traps ([[CC]] and AoE) and feign death can help greatly when towing a lower level character. Hunters can use several forms of "minor" AoE to speed up the towing process. |
||
| − | ** [[Explosive Trap]] |
||
| − | ** [[Snake Trap]] |
||
| − | ** [[Multi-shot]] |
||

| + | '''Koii''' is a DK. She used to be a Blood tank in Wrath, but now has chosen the path of the damage dealer. Currently working her way toward 85. Very, very slowly. [http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/Illidan/Koii/ Koii's Armory] |
||
| − | * [[Rogue]] - Rogues possess the ability to rapidly kill or [[stun]] [[mobs]] in the game. Their abilities lend themselves well to towing a character up to a high level. |
||
| − | **[[Fan of Knives]] Rogues now possess the ability to use an actual AOE skill. While not very efficient anywhere but Ragefire Chasm, this skill can be used to pull aggro away from the character in tow. |
||
| − | == |
+ | ====Koimoo==== |
| − | * Level Range - Care should be taken to avoid using mobs that are more than 5 to 6 levels over the towed character, as this will only slow down the leveling process by requiring more time to kill them, while netting no additional experience. |
||
| + | Koimoo is a level 85 Paladin. Prot/Ret[http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/illidan/koimoo/advanced/ Koimoo's Armory] |
||
| − | * Supplies - Killing large numbers of enemies quickly will require more resources and consumables than one would expect to consume in the same amount of time in high level solo play. The reason for this is that you will be moving as quickly as possible and want to minimize your downtime to maximize the experience returned to the towed character. |
||
| + | ==Notable Achievements== |
||
| − | * Emergency Supplies - If the towing character is a cloth wearing class, it is advised to take along the highest level of healing potion that you can use. The reason for this is that fighting lower level mobs in droves would be more potentially draining to your health reserves than your mana pool. |
||
| + | ===13/13 Heroic. Tier 11=== |
||
| − | * Partying - Contrary to popular opinion, adding additional party members at a similar level to the towee will give a certain amount of bonus experience on each kill. This is often easy to achieve when the instance run is advertised as being done by a higher level, and/or free loot in the process. |

Character Information: Koilie
Koilie, also known as Koilie the Light of Dawn is a Blood Elf Priest (Going Goblin in Cata!) currently residing on the US server Illidan. Illidan has been her home since March 29th 2010. Previous realms visited include Shadow Council where she spent a year and Moonrunner Prior to that.
The new look as soon as race change to Goblin opens in Cataclysm! (This is Koilie on the Beta)
Guild History
eG
Koilie is currently an Officer in the guild Excessive Gaming. The guild is was created on February 5th 2010 midway through progression into Icecrown Citadel, the final true dungeon of the Wrath of The Lich King expansion. On July 12th 2010 eG, after months of hard work and practice, defeated The Lich King in 25 player Heroic Difficulty securing their place as a top Horde guild. Ending the expansion with an impressive spot as realm #3 and US# 67 after only forming 5 months earlier and climbing through the ranks to knock out many other top contenders. Koilie participated in the guilds first kills of Heroic Sindragosa, Heroic Putricide and Heroic The Lich King.
Exodus
Exodus on Shadow Council US was Koilie's home for about a year. Joining during the early days of the expansion Koilie progressed through the entry content including Naxxramas, Eye of Eternity and "Sarth 3d". Next came Ulduar. Arguably the best raid instance of the expansion. Progression into Ulduar was slow at first as the guild had recently suffered the loss of some of its key players, but after some serious recruiting they were back on their feet and slowly climbing towards a realm 1st spot. Toward the end of Ulduar progression as they were closing in on the #1 spot, the current title holder, a guild called Ruin, disbanded. In one day the competition was removed and the path was clear. Exo took the Realm first achievment for Ulduar's Algalon, got our Drakes and awaited the release of Trial of the Crusader. We achieved the Realm First for this instance as well earning the Grand Crusader titles. Koilie unfortunately missed out on both realm first kills due to internet instability at the time. Finally ICC came out. The internet issues had been resolved shortly before its release and Koilie was able to gear up in ToGC before ICC went live. They quickly blazed through the normal mode content taking realm first kills for all the end wing bosses as well as The Lich King. Thus began the Heroic modes. At this point no other guild on the server were even in the competition for realm 1st. Exo cleared 5/12 hard modes in ICC 25 before the release of the 5% Hellscream's Warsong zonewide buff. Including the very difficult Deathbringer Saurfang encounter which before the buff and a few tweaks was very unforgiving. Exodus' reign eventually came to an end though as a dispute between the GM and another officer resulted in the guild splitting up into factions and soon after disbanding. Final score 7/12 Heroic ICC 25. The tragic end of a Dynasty.
Iniquitous
Iniquitous was Koilie's very own guild. Originally created during The Burning Crusade expansion when Koilie was not koilie the priest, but rather a Rogue. Her first "main". The guild was a strong group of raiders primarily intent on 10 man content in The Burning Crusade. They raided Karazhan, Zul' Aman and occasionally Gruul's Lair. The guild disbanded temporarily and was reformed later when Koilie had main switched to the new priest and decided to gear her up, but alas real life issues eventually forced her to relinquish command of the guild and stop playing. Atfer a long break and the release of the new expansion Koilie returned. Dusted off the priest and began reforming Iniquitous. Progressing through 10 man content quickly downing all but "sarth 3d". Realizing that she was a much better player than many she grouped with Koilie decided to expand her horizons and applied to her RL friends guild Exodus on Shadow Council. Thus starting a career that would lead her to becoming one of the top 20 Disc priests in the world.
