New to WoW

Twilks · 01-28-2012, 06:59 AM

I'm about to buy WoW from they're website, is there anything else i should know about this game? I'm going to buy the Battle chest, it says it includes a 256 page game guide and a free 1 month? would retail stores like Bestbuy also include this?

http://us.blizzard.com/store/details.xml?id=110000044

reason I'm asking is because i want to buy this through PayPal, and Bestbuy offers the PayPal payment option online.

Vanilla comes with a free month of subscription along with it, after that you can either pay through credit on your account (not sure about PayPal) or through 60 day time cards which cost me $29.99 at Wal-Mart. If you didn't already know, you'll have 2 more expansions to buy after the battle chest if you want the full experience. Wrath of the Lich King (raises level cap to 80 and provides you to make a Death Knight class) and Cataclysm (raises level cap to 85 and introduces 2 new races; Worgen for Alliance and Goblin for Horde). The guides will really do no good, I haven't read the ones that came from mine, but I could imagine it's just technical info and not really a guide to the game. If you haven't played before it may take some getting used to, but who knows you might like it and stick around like I did. WoW is all I really play anymore. If you have any questions I can probably answer them.

Vanilla?

I just finished the download for the free trial up to level 20 it's a good game but it needs more features like left click walk to waypoints.

Most guides with blizzard games suck fat dick, due to several reasons. One being that they are usually outdated after a few patches. Not only that but generally the guides are ****. you're best resources are either youtube or the offical forums.( I spose paracocks to)

Left click walk? It's an MMO. It's not like Runescape where you casually sit in 1 spot and left click lobster when your health is going down. You can hold both mouse buttons and you'll walk.

Other MMO's I play, all you do it left click on the screen and it just auto walks you there. So you don't have to have your hand on the mouse.

I was looking through the site, I saw something about a X-52 touring rocket from RAF, if I buy 2 months of membership do I also get one?

No, you have to refer someone else then they have to buy a subscription for you to receive it.

Twilks · 02-01-2012, 08:27 PM

What is the XP rate I receive, because I'll be willing to let you refer me, When I buy a 60 day card. GameStop is send me my Battle chest bundle that comes with lich king. I'll have to cash my check I've gotten from crest for $40

Also, should I even be worried about in game mounts at my lvl at the moment?

you get a 200% xp boost for 90 days. ONLY if you are within like 10 yards of your RAF partner. this boost is for both people. My friend done this and got to like 85 in a week flat just from doing instances. also the boost wont work if one player is more than like 2 levels above the other.
