If we start as the same race in the same area, does that mean questing together will split our XP? I don't know how WOW works this way... how does the game allocate XP when you kill a baddie if you have someone with you? Does the character with the final blow get all the points? Do you set up parties and everyone splits the total XP, or do all members get the same full XP?
You'll have to split exp from the critters, but if you're both about the same level it's a 50/50 split and no real hardship. Not to mention that you do not split quest turn in exp, which is going to be a nice chunk of your exp as you go along, especially at the higher levels or if you're not rested. Not to mention with two of you, you'll kill stuff faster, and be able to do quests more quickly, so it pretty much evens out to begin with, and becomes a real asset as you rise in levels and the critters and quests get harder.
