It's very after level 14. I got to 31 and it was going to start costing me about $24/month in order to play. You get this debuff called Fear of Death (FoD) after level 14. FoD is a stacking debuff everytime you die that reduces your stats by 25%. The only way to avoid getting FoD is to have applied Perfume before you died. The only way to get Perfume is through the Cash Shop (CS). It costs $.30 a hour to keep Perfume up. If you play 20h a week, that's $6 a week or $24 a month. FoD lasts 5 minutes at level 15 and 2 hours at level 40, so you can't just 'wait it out' because that's 2h IN GAME.
That being said, you can cure FoD in either of the Capital Cities for in game money but that means traveling anywhere from 15m to 1h to get back to the City, leaving your group/instance/raid/PvP event, traveling back and then trying to get back into a group/instance/raid/PvP.
