RECRUIT A FRIEND PROGRAM - WOW RETAIL

Pls Read

Blizzard is currently running on recruit a friend program where it will help the players in many ways as well as allowing friends to assist on new friend on the game.

What is "Recruit-A-Friend"?

Our new friend referral system allows you to recruit some of your friends to join you in World of Warcraft by sending them an invitation email containing a trial activation key. With this key, your friends will be able to set up their own trial accounts.

What in-game benefits do we get while the accounts we play are linked?

1. Characters on both accounts can summon each other once per hour.
2. While adventuring with your linked friend/family member, you will each gain triple experience.
3. For every two levels the new player earns, the new player can grant one free level-up to a lower-level character played by the veteran player.

How long will I be linked to my recruit?

The link between the accounts will last for 90 days from the date that your recruit creates an account. Remember that for the link to work properly, your recruit must create a new World of Warcraft account using the 10-day trial key in your invitation email.

When my friend/family member upgrades from a trial account to a full version of the game, will that break the link between the accounts?

Nope! Your friend/family member will have to upgrade to continue playing past the 10-day trial, and the accounts you play will stay linked until the full 90 days have passed.

Are there any limits on when and where I can summon my friend?

The summoning is able regardless of level difference. And level 60 or above characters can summon their friends as long as the summoning target is 59 or lower level.

Do I always gain triple experience while I am linked to my recruit?

No, only when you are partied with a character on the linked account and both players are present when slaying the monster or completing the quest. Also, if the two characters are not the same level (4 or more levels difference), no bonus experience is granted to either character.

Is quest experience tripled too?

Yes, but only if the quest or monster was not trivial (gray difficulty) for either character.

Do normal experience rules apply? How does this affect Rest State experience?

Yes, if a monster or quest is trivial to either player, no experience boost is given. If the quest or monster is trivial to either player then normal experience rules apply, including the use of Rest State experience.

What if I'm partied with multiple recruits who I'm "linked" to? Do I get quadruple, sextuple experience?

No, you can only ever gain a maximum of triple experience regardless of how many linked recruits you are partied with.

Are there any limitations to granting levels to characters played by the veteran player?

Yes. The recruit may not grant a level to a character that is equal to or higher than the current level of the character he or she is playing.
Additionally, the recruit may not grant a level to a character that is level 60 or higher.

At what point does the triple experience end?

It ends the moment that your accounts are unlinked, or when the new player hits level 60.

Will death knights be able to take advantage of the bonus levels?

Yes, death knights will be able to receive bonus levels, too. But keep in mind that death knights start at level 55 and players stop receiving bonus experience at level 60.

How long will Recruit-A-Friend last?

We have not yet determined how long this promotion will last.

The recruit will get an invitation email including a 10-day guest pass key and a link to download World of Warcraft.

While installing the game, the recruit will be prompted to create an account that will grant him or her 10 days of free access to World of Warcraft.

Note: To receive the benefits of the Recruit-A-Friend system, your friend/family member must use the 10-day guest pass key from your invitation email to create the new account.

During the 10-day free trial or anytime thereafter, the recruit will have the option to upgrade to a full version of World of Warcraft by purchasing a retail copy of the game.

When your friend/family member upgrades to a full version of World of Warcraft and pays for the first month's subscription, the account you sent the invitation from will be automatically credited with a free 30-day subscription. If your friend/family member pays for a second month, you will receive an exclusive in-game zhevra mount.

Each invitation and key expires 30 days from the time you generate the email. If your friend/family member doesn't start his or her trial within this time, the invitation will expire and you will need to send a new one.

Give it a try.
