Hey, I'm in my second day of my trial and well, I'm having fun and thinking of upgrading early as I think you have access to an additional character etc aswell?
Why should I upgrade though? How actually will it benefit me at the moment? thanks!

Don't go getting Burning Crusade or Lich King just yet as it won't benfit you till 60 for Burning Crusade and 70 for Lich King. Get a char to 58/60 then go and get Burning Crusade, then after that hit 68/70 and then go and get Lich King therefor increasing your level cap and access to Northrend.Quote:

Well, upgrading your account means you can join a guild, visit the AH, level past 20, and loads more. I'd suggest playing until you're around level 17+ so that you get the most of your 10 day trial and then if you enjoy it upgrade your account.
When it comes to the expansions, like Poon said, dont get The Burning Crusade until you're around 55 and The Lich King until around 65.
If u wish to upgrade to a full account, you get the benefits he said, BUT if you upgrade you still keep your trial days aswell, so you may aswell upgrade now if you wish to play the game for a long timeQuote:

Upgrading gets you the ability to:
Have more than 10g
Be lvl 20+
Join or create a guild
Use extended chat: General, Trade, LocalDefence et cetera
Play as Draenei or Blood Elf (If you buy BC)
Trade and use the Auction House
It's worth it imo, especially if you have friends who play
But don't forget you loose your life!
Thanks, everyone!
Another question: I'm being prompted to join a profession, any ideas of which I should definitly do and which I should avoid? thanks.
Avoid enchanting on your first char, it's really a money burner
the gathering skills :) - skinning herbalism mining(takes a while)Quote:

Racial Benefits:
Tauren have +15 Herbalism
Blood Elves have +10 Enchanting
Gnomes have +15 Engineering
Draenei have +5 Jewelcrafting
There are common combinations such as
Mining goes with Blacksmithing, Jewelcrafting and Engineering
Herbalism goes with Alchemy and Inscription
Skinning goes with Leatherworking
Tailoring and Enchanting stand on their own
Remember, you must have BC to get Jewelcrafting as a profession.
Hope that helps
