The dreaded character boost

Does anyone know what will happen with your professions?
With previous level boosts, the original especially, if you got the character you intended to boost up to TBC starting level, the professions would be boosted along with the characters level.
So a level boosted character would have profession levels matching the start of whichever expansion they were in.

Anyone know if that’s going to work? Or are the boosted characters going to be stuck levelling professions from level one?

You could try find that here.

Hope this helps.

Yeah, I took a look at that when it went up. I couldn’t see any mention of professions though.

I’m glad i could help.

Nothing.

No professions boost.

Yes they are.

While that doesn’t surprise me. Where did you find that information?

Assuming it’s true, that will suck for anyone buying a character boost. Oh, look, jump to 58 and get into the Outland. But wait, you can’t get any professions.

Yeah,with the boost you get nothing but 58 levels really.You still have to go back into old world to level proffesions.

They said it during Blizzconline after the announcement.

If you have 60 char or couple like lot of players seem have those professons are fast done. Materials prices could go up though

I’m not buying one, I was curious about how it was going to work.
I will however be mining some copper and stone with hopefully the occasional gem for my incoming Draenai Shaman.

I hope boosted characters have to level professions, it’s bad enough getting a decent gear set, gold, and 40 riding skill included.

I looked at the official website for the boost, or as they call it a “Dark Portal Pass”, no mention of professions.

The gear is borderline terrible for tbc start. You get 25 gold which you have to spend like 20 of it instantly. So in reality you get 5 gold.

But i guess paying a decent sum of money for riding skill worth 50g is considered game breaking.

I planned first that well why not buying it but now after almost halfway to 60 not so sure anymore. Most likely won’t be anywhere near 60 when launch day comes but not bothered about that anymore just enjoying my questing tour around zones
