I hope I don't word these confusingly, so here we go!
First off, I'm thinking of buying RIFT (Again). Past experiences with the hacked incident in Trion Worlds left my previous account hacked and banned, and unable to appeal it. Sad face, all that stuff. Anyways, if I upgrade to Ashes of History Edition, what's in that package besides the face value of the promotion items? More levels, more dungeons, what?
After that, I was wanting to charge my card INSTANTLY for the $99.99 yearly subscription to receive the rewards and cancel it (So I don't forget and get charged next year, duh) for a years worth of game play. If I do this, and want this, do I have to upgrade with the free month offered by the site so I have to input a subscription payment? Last but not least, is the collectors edition worth the $10.00 now? Or no?
