    just roll a f2p.. it's more of a challenge and somewhat easier to gear, depending on if you want rares and such.
    or do you just wanna shit on people with 1/4th of your gear and enchants?

    That's like saying roll a 15 vs 19 twinks or a 35 vs 39s.

    Ima do whatever I can to be BiS.
     
    if you lock at 20 on a p2p account then idk what's wrong with you

    There's many reasons. Better stats first of all (for casters especially), less of a time and gold sink (which is minor, but convenient nonetheless), weapon procs give you more stats the lower level you are, and if you stay out of guilds and get a proper transmog, you blend in with the F2Ps meaning you're less likely to be focused.

    I have a few P2P 20s with F2Pish looking mogs and that's the only reason why I don't get focused to oblivion.

    Choosing to rolls 20 vs 24 is a personal choice is some cases. It can depend on class and it can depend on play style. Gear scaling is way better at 20. That is why I choose level 20. Trial players should understand, this if anything. You did select the footwear I was going to suggest, That is one items that is often missed. There are a couple posts concerning elemental shaman gearing and enchants of which Balance are very similar with the exception of the heirlooms. Those links are below.

    Good luck and have fun!

    lol that is nothing like it, cuz both would be p2p and have OP enchants. in the 20-24 bracket mostly everyone is 20 because they're f2p, and obviously that's lvl cap. you're statement is invalid.

    My point is that if I go f2p im putting myself at a disadvantage.
     
    And good sir, that sure as hell is the point. More of a challenge, more fun. You must have a different mindset.

    My mindset is to also compete with fully geared 24s.
    I'd prefer that actually.

    Oh my, someone that FINALLY understands! Why should a subscriber play to a disadvantage? Subscribers don't have the advantage, trial accounts choose to play with a disadvantage. And then bitch and moan because others do not. I am not going to lower my standards. They should be raising their standards.
    If you wanted to go FULL haste you can choose http://www.wowhead.com/item=62343/greater-inscription-of-charged-lodestone it scales to +8sp+4haste.
    It is probably not the best choice for a pauldron piece.
    Have a terrific day.
