Have you reached level 14? I think that's the cut off point when you can't level up anymore with the trial.

I don't quite follow what your problem is here...

Every other level ( 2, 4, 6, etc ) you get a new power. The odd levels, you get slots for powers ( 2 per odd level ) to put enhancements into ( Which are items that improve certain aspects of the powers ). ( The pattern changes, but not until well after the trial level cap )

When you're at a new power level and you choose a new power, the hotbutton for it will automatically go into your power tray. ( Unless it's an auto power, which is always on and, thus, doesn't have a hotbutton )

No idea if any of that covered what you were looking for...

What level are you talking about? Trial accounts are only allowed up to level 14. It might be that you gain xp to when you would get to level 15 but cannot level up because you cannot be level 15.

Auto abilities are always on, and don't need to be placed on your button bar to work.

If your tray is full of buttons, a new toggle or click power may not show. You'll need to open another button bar by clicking the upward pointing error on the upper right, and then place the power from the power menu on it.

Also, if you're level 14 and on trial, that's as high as you get to go.

Also, some powers are situational. For example they may only work on teammates, or dead teammates, or the area of effect must be chosen after the power is activated.

Yes. I suggest that you tell us what you picked. As others have already told you, you're not giving us enough information to help you.

What power did you pick? At what level? What level are you now?

Is your power tray full?

If there's no room for any other powers to be placed in your tray, it won't put it there. If that's the case, click the arrow on top of the tray to add another one to your power window. Then change the second one from 1 to 2 by clicking the arrow to the right of the number. Then go to the Power menu (pressing P should bring it up) and drag your powers down to the trays in whatever order you like.

No, that's not right...you don't need to take powers in any particular order, but they do only become available at certain levels. Since you said you were playing an "assassin class" I'm assuming your character is a Stalker. In which case:

Nimble Slash at level 1+
Power Slice at level 1+
Ablating Strike at level 2+
Assassin's Blades at level 6+
Build Up at level 8+, etc.

Note that you don't need to take Nimble Slash, Power Slice, Ablating Strike and Assassin's Blades to get access to Build Up, and you don't have to take the preceding powers in any particular order (or at all). All the powers that you don't have access to at a given level will be greyed out when you level up.

I have to wonder if you're talking about your "powers" tab rather than the actual level up selection. Your "Powers" tab will show all powers that you could possibly have access to, but they will be greyed out if you haven't trained them.
