i wanna get wrath of the lich king, but i dont know if i need to get the original game and then wrath of the lich king? is wrath of lich king and expansion pack or can i just get that instead? i guess what im asking is if its possible to get the wrath of lich king and not have to buy to original game.
No, you need all of them in order to play wrath if you want it: Original wow – lvl 1-60 Burning crusades – lvl 60 -70 then Wotlk- lvl 70-80 in that order. and yes wotlk ( wrath of the litch king ) is an expansion

No, you need all of them in order to play wrath if you want it:
Original wow – lvl 1-60
Burning crusades – lvl 60 -70
then
Wotlk- lvl 70-80
in that order.

Exactly what Meru said. You have to have all three…as Lich King is the second expansion…not the actual game!

Like the other guys said you gotta get all 3, but if you don't wanna shell out the cash all at once for all 3, don't. Start with the original, and work through that content (lvl 1-60) then get the second and work through that and so on. no need to get all 3 at once because until you reach level 58 i think you can't even go to outland and anything less than 65 and you literaly won't last 10 seconds in Northrend outside of the towns (pref 67-70).

Does that mean, if you’ve never played WoW before, and you want to start out as a blood elf, you have to:
1. buy both WoW original and burning crusades
2. start with a character (not blood elf because thats only available in BC) play until level 60
3. Start BC with your level 60 character
4. Then make a new character – the blood elf
?????? is that it? PLEASE somebody! tell THAT is not it. That would be tiring and painfull.
Jou:
If you want to play a Blood Elf char. You to buy WoW plus BC, install both. Upgrade your account to BC. And then create your character.
i already have the original WoW. But i want a blood elf character to play and I also want the litch king expansion. Would I have to buy all Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King?
Yes, that’s basically it, dude. To play a blood elf or a Dranei, you must have Burning Crusade. To have BC, you must have the original, and to play Wrath of the Lich King (level 71-80), you must have all 3. Basically, everyone wants to play to level 80, so they’ve got you by the balls to buy all 3. You can install BC or WOTLK at a later time without having to restart, of course, but eventually, you’ll need all 3. Cataclysm, the next expansion, should be released around November, 2010 and will take you to level 85 and no doubt require the other 3. Cataclysm will also have two other races, so if you are just starting out and want to play the cool new races, you’re shelling out over $100 to start with all 4. It’s a major reason why I don’t have 2 accounts. The benefits of 2 accounts, especially in a PVP world (a world where the other faction can always attack you), is that you can level up 2 characters at the same time and they can more or less protect each other.
Sorry for bein stupid but I hav a regular retail acc and I had the BC trial..I wanna get both expansions now cuz I wanna play a blood elf and Draenei and too play a dk (death knight) cuz I’m lvl 52 almost at 55 so once I get upgraded to BC do I jus right away also upgrade to WotLK or do i wait?
Hello. I have been playing wow since 1 moth before Tbc was published. Atm i am bit bored to play wiht my 80lvl char.
Question: Can i buy new Original wow and play it wihtout expansions at all? Would like to try “vanilla” Style.
i also have a question, if i baught WoW classic and burning crusade, could i automatically make a blood elf? or would i have to get one of the class WoW characters to lvl 60?
chimchi – no, you can install bc and make a bloodelf/drainai immediately, you don;t need a leevl 60 character 1st
