"am i allowed to group my 60 with my alt and run her through low level dungeons?"
Nope. They haven't mentioned twinking, but in combat/XP is a big no. We don't have a XP off option though, so we can't legitimately farm gear on a twink without boxing. I want to twink a character eventually, and boxing is the only way to get the boss drops if you can't turn the XP off. But you're not in combat or getting XP for the clears, just boss kills. Not sure if it's prohibited or not. For example, if you want to twink Hunter 19, you basically need the WC bow, it's the BiS 19 blue to use. But you can't run WC 15 times for it to drop without dinging 20. This means clearing the whole dungeon in advance, and just bringing in the alt for the boss kill. Unless you have a friend willing to waste hours doing this for you(probably not), then you have to box it yourself. Every twink needs BIS equipment from dungeon bosses, and there's no legitimate way to acquire it unless you're VERY lucky on drops before dinging the next bracket.
On Molten, I once had a twink 39 War with the full SM set and 2h. It took a ridiculous amount of runs in Cath/Arm to get every blue. I boxed for the runs and avoided as much XP as possible. He probably would have been 50 from all the runs if I was forced to get XP. This is a huge farm. Blue helm, shoulder, legs, gloves, shield, all from SM. I even had the axe, which is technically inferior to Whirlwind or Corpsemaker you can get for 39, but spinning was fun. I should note that this twink was a Human Warrior, and with a growth pot+chest removed, he looked exactly like Herod, which I liked running around in BGs as. I basically just made a /say macro and hit it every time the spin procced.
