World Of Warcraft: Legion Lets You Trial Classes Before Boosting

As of today, World of Warcraft players that own Legion can now trial each class before deciding which one they want to choose for the character that will be boosted to level 100. Class trial characters are level 100 characters that make use of "a preset class specialization." The trial allows players to take these characters through the tutorial, up until they obtain their Artifact weapon. If players decide they want to continue their journey, they need only apply a level 100 character boost.

In addition to the progression limit, class trials have a time limit. However, the timer stops counting down whenever you are not logged in as that character.

Matt's Take:

This was a good move on Blizzard's part. While I would prefer to quest my way through the game and experience the story content that I missed, others would rather jump straight to the new content. Class trials allow those players to try each class out for a limited time before they end up using their level 100 character boost on a class they hate, leaving them with the choices of continuing to use that class, leveling up a new character, or paying for another level 100 character boost—none of which are all that enticing.
