Question: Is worth to pay sub only for dungeons?

Hi,
I was thinking about pay 1 month sub only to access dungeon finder to farm TBC items and acces to AH. Becasue going solo is very time consuming. But I have already 20 characters so:
1. Is there still banked XP? if I logged in, it will probably level me up?
2. Is there still way to lock XP on 20 to gearing up and than just wait when sub expire?
3. If I make characters on other realm while I sub, my original F2p characters wont be affected?
 
1. Yes, but only if the account has never had game time in the past, thus being a starter account. If it had game time at any time, then it acquires the veteran status once the sub expires.

2. Yes, you need to talk to the experience eliminator NPC of the respective faction. The alliance one is at Stormwind Keep, while the Horde one is at Valley of Honor. The service costs 10g to either enable or disable your experience.

Alliance: https://wow.gamepedia.com/Behsten
Horde: https://wow.gamepedia.com/Slahtz

Note: The alliance one sometimes won't show up due to phasing issues. There are two ways around that: you can either pick up the BFA intro quest with Anduin and then drop or complete the Tol'Dagor chain to be moved to the correct phase or you can start your toon through Exile's Reach and automatically hop at the correct phase once you're done.

I recommend Exile's Reach since it is faster to level than the regular racial starting zones and frees up extra unnecessary effort.

3. No, they won't be affected. To my knowledge only one character can bank experience, up to 10 levels. There is no such thing as "cross-banking" where the banked experience of a given character gets transferred to another one.

@Edit: The experience removal service is available for F2P accounts, you just can't turn it back on without a sub. So if you have any kind of worry about your characters levelling up when getting one, just lock their experience gain prior to purchasing it.

So even trial account can have 19 twinks? (if there is still 10-19 bracket)

For sure, that bracket is amongst the most active twink brackets, the other two being 20~29 and 50~59 capped at 50 without Shadowlands purchased.

Oh wait, I mixed some things up. I was with my old Hunter in mind and forgot she wasn't entirely f2p. Yeah, you can't do 19's BG's on a f2p. That would be 20's. I'm sorry haha.

Just ignore that edit earlier, everything else is fine.

So when i pay sub for month and disable XP gain ,then when it expire, XP gain automatickly turn on?
 
@Quintyx "So when i pay sub for month and disable XP gain ," but before it expires (like a hour before or if you are bawly, you can wait a few minutes before gametime ends) and turn it back on from the xp eliminator. IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT BG RIGHT AFTER YOUR GAMETIME ENDS! I REPEAT DO NOT BG RIGHT AFTER YOUR GAME TIME ENDS!! wait at least an HOUR to TWO HOURS before queing. :) Have fun!

OFC - worst case scenario you will just have to submit a ticket to a gm requesting that they turn your xp back on from the backend.

you won’t be able to turn it back on and will have to get a gm to do it for you.

don’t be a nerd. Put a post-it on your desk or something to remind yourself. This trips up everyone and my heads gonna explode if i see one more “i can’t turn my xp back on what gives?” thread.
 
Planning is my weak spot man :D but sometimes I can plan something better in wow than in real life :D I can ask a lot.. also in real life somone hate me for that :)
