Backup post, just in case TI eats my OP during editing again.
Welcome!
F2P has been around for a while now, and over time a lot of people have compiled some tremendously useful information about F2P twinking. Feel free to have a look at this post, in which I've tried to index this information in an easily readable way.
I hope you have fun and will find what you are looking for here!
Good luck!

You can use the Advanced Search to narrow it down further, but usually this won't be necessary. Let's say you want to farm materials for profession levelling during Darkmoon Faire, and are looking for a guide. Type Darkmoon Faire Farming, hit enter or click Search, and in a very short time you will have a small number of matching threads!

In this example both the Darkmoon Faire Mat Farming list and Rhaellia's awesome Darkmoon Faire Guide are worth checking out. <3

3# Class Guides (Write more guides, people!)

| Warrior | Keyser's Warrior Guide |
| Paladin | Brokendemon's Paladin Guide Eliot's Protection Paladin Guide / jenks33's Protection Paladin gear sets Battlepøpe's Holy Paladin Guide |
| Hunter | Pinochet's Hunter Guide / some pre-BoA Horde gear Pinochet has also offered: "I believe BM to be the stronger hunter spec, at least for BGs. I only switch to marks/surv for short periods to dick around. I'm perfectly fine with being messaged by random people who want advice on the spec." |
| Rogue | SekcMustard's Rogue Guide |
| Priest | |
| Shaman | Pinochet's Resto Shaman Guide |
| Mage | Deadvulcano's Mage Guide |
| Warlock | |
| Druid | MrCer's Druid Guide |
19 Twink Guides are also a good reference for classes, gear and PvP advice.

5# Best-in-Slot Armoury References
The original F2P level 20 Armory Library by leotseddap lists and links players with TI-accounts and is a great reference.
Imirak's original F2P Rankings: PVE & PVP has been continued in the most awesome way by lofi: F2P Rankings: Achievements, HKs, and more! is a fully colour-coded list of the top-ranked 100 world F2P twinks with links and up-to-date relevant statistics, also links downloadable spreadsheets with even more players, and is just indescribably fantastic!
For a shorter overview I've tried to collect a few examples of very well geared, active players for each class.
Keep in mind that for BiS the occasional LFH, MM, RoP, Mindthrust Bracers, Drakewing Bands etc. might be missing. People might also log out in RP gear, during spec experiments, etc. Some classes can also switch between specs quite frequently, so please forgive any mistakes I made while attempting to order these. ^^ Not everyone uses Medium Armor Kits and enchants like Enchant Cloak - Minor Resistance, you can research these in Pinochet's Comprehensive Profession Guide.
Feel free to suggest more references!

Please reroll Fury or Prot. Arms is so much garbage -_-

re: Level Twenty Twinking - FAQ, Info and Guides Index
Lol. In your opinion. If you're good at the class and play Arms for a while Fury just starts to feel weak and clunky. But that's my opinion.
I have 20.20% Crit (self buffed) and an affinity for getting in healers/flag carriers personal space and it usually makes for good mojo on the field. But feel free to keep playing the way that everyone else plays forever, and I'll keep playing the way I enjoy playing forever. Because we'd really hate to break the mold and discover different/better/unique alternatives to playing classes.

I'll just go ahead and say you're" right" since you're so desperate to prove a point simply based on the fact that you don't agree with someone on the subject in question.
You are a gentleman and a scholar. Good day to you, Sir.

I'm right because I can base my statements on my own observations and experience, during almost a full year of F2P and 15 days played on a Warrior. . I'll Crippling Thrown kite you next time I meet you.

re: Level Twenty Twinking - FAQ, Info and Guides Index
I said you were right. And you do that.
I just want everyone to note that just because Mialo is bad at Arms Warrior doesn't mean the specialization is unplayable. Also, that just because he's played the class for an extensive amount of time doesn't mean that everything he says about the class is a fact.
This has been a public service announcement. That is all.

Just because he doesn't like it doesn't mean he's bad at it, and he's not saying the spec is unplayable. What he IS saying is that the lack of a slow makes it a worse spec than the others.

When did you decide for everyone that not liking a certain spec makes you inherently bad at it?

re: Level Twenty Twinking - FAQ, Info and Guides Index
I never said that. Helps to read when blindly defending someone.
On a more important note, however; I have the original post saved in notepad. If anyone needs this information just PM me because some of it is very useful and somewhat crucial to the F2P community.

So by your definition, if I have tried all three spec on my priest with 16 days played, decided that disc is better than holy, that makes me bad at playing holy?

You said, and I quote:
You're assuming this because he feels the spec is inferior through experience, when you have never met him ingame to see how he plays. I cant think of a single reason why your reasoning would be solely restricted to warriors, so that makes me "bad" at holy priest?
