Free Weekend Event Implications for MoP Remix lv20 Boost Characters

Live Posted 15 days ago by Neryssa

However, during the Free Welcome Back Weekend Event that is currently happening through August 4th, trial accounts WILL have their max level restriction of lv20 lifted, so you run into the risk of accidently overleveling your boosting character.

Characters above lv20 on a trial account will become inaccessible unless you pay for a subscription once the Free Welcome Back event is over.

We recommend not playing your lv20 characters used for boosting until the Free Weekend event is over.Level 20 Trial Characters in MoP Remix

Comment by minka25Yep. Same with level 20 boost chars on free account beside remix. Dont play till 4th August. Level stop will literally remove the queue system.Comment by PhaelienGreat shout-out, I didn't even think of this when I saw the announcement and was contemplating levelling some more alts this weekend.Comment by MikeMJGYes, but it only counts for fake MoP, not real WoW. Once those characters become part of retail WoW, they lose everything and only keep the level 20.Comment by serafnoYou can use this opportunity to access the locked chars mail and loot all those threads waiting there. (Be careful about bonus exp stuck in the mail)Comment by satelitkoA lot of people that don't pay attention to the news will have their characters level to 21 the instant they do anything (since you're "stuck" at 1XP needed to level when you're locked) and I feel like that's the intention here.

Blizzard: " Oh, oops, looks like you need to pay for a sub now, or lose access to your character! Sure, you can level and gear another one, but wouldn't it be easier to just give us money? :) "Comment by kurebitaBut it states that in order to access the benefit you needed to have had an active subscription or game time at one point. Shouldn't you be good if you never did? I'll try it out since I have a couple fillers I use lol.

Edit: Tried it out. If you never had a subscription you don't qualify for this event.Comment by VeilthinThey enabled free weekend before the announcement so I dinged mid run.Comment by justsimiMy Starter account is still locked to lvl 20. It seems to affect only accounts with inactive subscription and not trial accounts.Comment by dlbert2000You can make a new level 20 twink in 1 day

After they tripled the threads you get from spools, you can make a level 10 and every new dungeon you do gives a blue spool. Also the 'Tour' achievements for the 3 zones (Jade, Valley, Krasarang) you can complete give a bunch of blue and purple spools. You can get a level 20 that can solo heroic 5 mans in 1 dayComment by LautnerA lot of people that don't pay attention to the news will have their characters level to 21 the instant they do anything (since you're "stuck" at 1XP needed to level when you're locked) and I feel like that's the intention here.

Edit: Sorry, I realized this article talks about Pandaria Remix which DOES NOT give you access to the NPCs needed to eliminate XP.Comment by NatalayaYou can make a new level 20 twink in 1 day

Get us all killed continually by pulling everything.
I've kicked so many of these pieces of crap.Comment by ChriusThanks for ruining my plans for the weekend BlizzardComment by AkzaYet still no FIX for MoP Remix rep bug...Comment by KontryI !@#$ing hate these people, they come in que'd as both tank and healer with the tank on auto-follow.

I've kicked so many of these pieces of crap.I can confirm, having 3 accounts in my Bnet account (2 with subscription and 1 that never had one), that the account I have my 20 twink on THAT NEVER HAD SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE, the restrictions arent lifted up, then I can continue boosting this weekend without worries.
