We have added quite a few new features to our site.  Many are strictly for premium members.  (We're keeping them open to all for a few days for you to try them out).  Those of you who purchased BC from EB Games and Gamestop can use these new features by entering your trial code here.  Or you can purchase a premium membership for just a few dollars a month and not only get these features, but also a 12 month magazine subscription and 10% off all future MMO purchases at Gamestop.com and EBgames.com.

• New Character Profiles:  (available to everyone).  The profiles contain even more information than before.  Plus, they can be easily linked from other sites through xml.  Profiles also have an easier to use management page.  All you need to do to have a profile is run wowreader.
• Character Editor:  (premium only).  You can now use your profile to try on new items and see how they affect your stats, or even create entire different builds.  Go to the management page and make a copy of the profile and then find the item you are interested in and equip it and see what it changes.  You can save multiple profiles of the same character if you want.  Build your dream character and share it with friends.
• Quest Todo List:  (premium only).  You can bring this up on the management page.  This lets you easily track where you need to go for your current set of quests to use your time most efficiently.
• Item Upgrade Search:  (premium only).  Using your profile, you can search for attainable upgrades to your current equipment.  We have added easy to use templates for the different classes to make searching simple, or you can specify exactly what you like in your items and really narrow your search.  Learn what you can do right now to improve your character.
• Mob Value Search:  (premium only).  Because we track every drop of a mob plus all AH prices, we are able to assign an average value per kill to all of the mobs in the game.  Need to save more for your new mount?  This tool lets you search for the best places to farm mobs and make money.  This is my personal favorite tool.
• Advanced Item Search:  (mixed premium and non premium).  We have improved the advanced search to allow searching the database on just about every parameter we could think of.  This search is available to everyone, but only premium members can do multiple page searches.
• Mouseover Stats:  (mostly premium only).  Most of the pages on our site contain mouseover information available only to premium members.  Mobs bring up maps, quests bring up descriptions, items bring up stats and more.  This additional convienience makes browsing the site a more pleasant experience for premium members.
• PvP Vendor Rewards:  (premium only).  These very handy lists let you see all of the rewards available from the various PvP vendors on a single page. 
• Interactive Maps:  (premium only).  We have buffed up our existing maps feature quite a bit, though we still have some more ideas that we hope to add soon.  You can bring up maps of various mobs, herbs, ores, etc. in a zone and narrow it down to things like vendors, rares, quest givers, etc.  Very handy for preparing to hit a new zone.
• Forum Extras:  (premium only).  Forum posters with a premium membership get avatar pictures, a banner signature, a title, smilies, polls, item links, and the ability to search the forums.  You don't want to post without these.
• Your Own Personal Forum:  (premium only).  This is not new, but worth mentioning.  As a premium member, you get a forum identical to our regular forums to admin on your own.  Use it to post rants, wite stories, or chat with friends or guild mates.
• And More...:  (premium only).  Other things premium members get are ad free browsing, a personal @allakhazam.com e-mail address, and automatic entry into our contests and drawings.
• Additional Free Features: (available to everyone).  We have also added a Gem List and Enchantment List and Talent Builder.
• Improved General Search:  (available to everyone).  The new general search does a better job of organizing the results, lets you search live or beta and can search the site in seven different languages.
  

So while you can indeed browse our site and get quite a bit out of it for free, please consider everything extra that you get for the small price of a premium membership and think about joining.  It is only $9.99 for 3 months, $17.99 for 6 months or just $29.99 for a full year.  That's a lower monthly cost than a single cup of coffee!  If you are interested, you can sign up instantly at this link.  Thank you for your support.
