Get’cher Zhevra Mount!

Blizzard, the developers behind the world conquering MMO World of Warcraft, have added a new incentive to play WoW in the form of the Recruit-A-Friend system. Read all about it after the break.

The new system will allow players to invite friends and family to play WoW with them and receive special rewards for playing as a group. Those benefits include being an able to summon your friend’s character once per hour, gaining triple experience when leveling together, and for every two levels the new recruit earns, the player that invited them can level up a lower-level character on their account.

Also, if anyone you recruit upgrades to the full thing and pays for a month, you get a free month. Once they pay for two months, you can give one of your characters an exclusive zhevra mount.

The biggest incentive is easily the triple experience, but all of these features (minus the mount) only last for 90 days. That’s when your “link” is terminated. Them’s the brakes, kiddo.

I gave up on WoW a while ago, but if it wasn’t for the 90 day thing, I might’ve been persuaded to give it another shot.

It’s like your drug dealer offering you the extra-special-melt-your-brain heroin if you get one of your friends to try heroin as well. And, if they get addicted, and you shoot together, you can use the same gold needle! Except after 90 days all you get is hepitis c. RSS feed for comments on this post.
