[NEWS] Play World of Warcraft Free Up to Level 20

IMPORTANT EDIT: Turns out there are a boatload of restrictions on these accounts. They include the inability to join guilds and join parties. So the feasibility of using these accounts to multibox diminishes significantly. Nonetheless, feel free to read my original post below

Indeed. But I didn't delve into the fine details when I posted this. I came across it on my RSS feed and thought "hmm, interesting... post!"

[supamario00]

Oh RSS your titles are so misleading

[Nghtmr9999]

Yup. Play WoW free up to level 20!

........

however, you must play blindfolded with everything muted, can only melee stuff with your fists and your connection only lasts for 5 seconds at a time

You could have 1 legit character invite the 4x trial characters, right?

To a group? That's a negative

- Characters will not be able to join parties with other characters above level 20.

That says above level 20.

I'm saying you have 1x account that is legit. RAF yourself 4x trials. Now you have a legit 1st lvl toon who invites 4x RAF trials into a party.

So yea, sounds like a multiboxing party using this would still work out quite well from 1 to 20, right?

[Nghtmr9999]

Ah, my bad. I thought you meant a character above level 20 XD

In that case, it seems like it would work out. You would just need a lowbie paid account and you should be good to go. I believe you would need one bnet account per trial as well.

I was going to be playing a 5-team trial group, but the lack of a party restriction would make things... interesting
