We know that unregistered applications have the right to make 3000 requests per day, registering an application gives you access to more. But, it probably makes a big difference is someone is requesting
/api/wow/character/Medivh/Uther
or
/api/wow/character/Medivh/Uther?fields=guild,stats,talents,items,reputation,titles, professions,appearance,companions,mounts,pets,achievements,progression

I know that basic request (for realms status) is the least expensive, but how about those above?

P.S. I bet almost no one would need all the data from second request, it just serves as an "overkill/overpriced example"

Nope, there is no difference between a character request with no additional fields and one with all additional fields.

In reference to Price of Requests; are guild requests for members (example listing all members of a guild with their level, race, and thumbnail) considered 1 main line request, or 200 requests for a 200 person guild?


One request.
