Hm, I just had a look at the fine print. It says:

So basically what I get is a chance to play my level 90 character for 10
days without getting above level 90. If I understood past conversations in
here correctly my garrison is greatly tied to levelling up and being stuck
at level 90 will limit me severely in building up my garrison (which seems
to be one of the major new parts of this expansion)? Also, I guess my stats
will remain tied at level 91 so I won't be able to visit more than a couple
of zones until I will be too low level to do anything?

I think I'll pass.

Cheers
