WoW an Introduction

World of Warcraft or WoW as it known, is a “Massively Multi player On-line Role-Playing Game” or MMORPG. This means thousands (sometimes tens of thousands) of players,  from all around the World exist in the same on-line realm at the same time. They abandon the real world to undertake heroic quests in a land of fantastic adventures..

The game has two warring factions: the Horde and Alliance. After deciding what side to play, each character will choose one of several classes: Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock and Warrior.Each class has its own unique set of talents and abilities. You can, depending on the class of character that you have, choose to build your character’s talent trees for damage-per-second (DPS), tanking, healing or a combination of these.

There are 10 races to play: Orcs, Tauren, Trolls, Undead, Blood Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Humans, Night Elves and Draenei and multiple professions you can have: Engineering, Mining, Skinning, Tailoring, First Aid Fishing, Herbalism, Leather working, Jewel crafting, Inscription, Alchemy, Blacksmithing, Cooking and Enchanting. (Note: Within the Rogue class there are two unique secondary professions: Lock Picking and Poisons).

There are thousands of quests to undertake with multiple kinds of transportation. In addition, there are four realm types which will be the very first decision you will have to make before playing World of Warcraft. The aim of the game is money and reputation which will enhance your power and skill. A good place to start is to find a decent World of Warcraft Levelling Guide to help you through this mystical world.

Within the game itself there are two “modes” of character:

• Player Characters (which are controlled by real people)

• Non-Player Characters (which are controlled by the games’ software)

So you can find yourself playing a “real” person as well as the games created opponent.
Your character can earn copper, silver or gold to fund your adventures. In addition you will need to work on the different skills for your character.

There are many guides on the market and all do pretty much what they say they do but some have the additional feature of forums and members areas to help you level your character from 1-70. Many also have detailed gold guides and the latest up to date information on, for example, Wrath of the Lich King which takes you up to level 80! With that in mind though players are free to go at their own pace and pit their skills against multiple opponents.

World of Warcraft is Blizzard Entertainment’s 4th game in the Warcraft series and is now played by over 10 million people world wide! It starts 4 years after the setting of Warcraft III in the world of Azeroth.

The Alliance and Horde are opposing factions locked in a battle for control of the land – and neither side is backing down. Horde and Alliance players maybe able to do battle with each other, but they cannot trade or even talk to each other so if you have friends that would like to play, make sure you belong to the same group!

A good place to start your World of Warcraft quest is to get a WoW Leveling Guide. Follow the link to read up on the best World of Warcraft strategy guides available.

When you first start out in a game that you have never played today, it could be complicated and you may need some assistance.

The guide can tell you what race has better classes and what that race can be better at that class. You might find it to have some of the jobs like the other Final Fantasy as the classes like, ninja, summoner, red mage, white mage, black mage, warrior or a dragoon.

The classes have their own ways to defeating their enemies and as an example, mages use spells. The type of mage you will pick is determined by what spells you use.

If you use the red mage, you will find it having both white and black magic. Red mages have the weaker spells compared to being a black mage or white mage. This is why it’s important to get a guide to tell you what magic user class you want to use.

The specific information you need about armor or even weapons to use for your class can be learnt through the game help, but guides can go into details about what weapons give the best damage. Magic users do need to have certain skills that need worked on, which means you need to find out what your mage uses.

When you want to get good items or loot, you might need to find a guide that pertains to that information you need. The loot and gold can be a major part of the game and to find the best loot can be easy if you have a guide.

If you’re not a guide user, then you should know it can help you learn more in depth about the game. The Final Fantasy XI guides can be found on the Internet through a good search engine. When you find one, you should always make sure it’s something you need that can tell you about almost everything in the game to improve your game.

Because first aid can reduce your down time, it’s good for just about every class even healers. The ability to heal your friends will make you a great ally when it comes to groups and raids. The First Aid profession uses different bandages for healing. As you level up you first aid profession you’ll learn different cloths which in turn are use to make these bandages. The higher level cloths will have better healing power. This WoW first aid guide won’t go into actually making and using the bandages. The list that follows is of the various cloths, their skill level and healing power. Heavier bandages, as I mention below, have greater healing power.

• Linen: Starting skill level, with a 66 Healing power and (114 healing power for Heavy, meaning heavy bandages) over 6 sec
• Wool: Find a trainer once you’re at level 115, Healing power is 161 (301 for Heavy) over 7 seconds.
• Silk: You’ll need to seek out a trainer at level 150, Healing power is 400 (640 Heavy) over 8 seconds.
• Mageweave: Find a trainer at skill 210, Healing power is 800 (1104 Heavy) over 8 seconds.
• Runecloth: Find a trainer at skill 260, Healing power is 1360 (2000 Heavy) over 8 seconds.
• Netherweave: You’ll need a book in order to learn how to make this cloth but first you’ll need to be at skill 330, Healing power is 2800 (3400 Heavy) over 8 seconds.
• Frostweave: Find a Grand Master trainer at level 350, healing power is 4800 (5800 Heavy) over 8 seconds.

Making Heavy bandages require an extra piece of cloth and will have stronger healing power than the regular bandages. Books used for training to make different bandages can be found in the wild or bought from various traders. Now in the WoW first aid guide I’ll mention some things about leveling. The book you need in order ot level 125-225 is called “Under Wraps”. It costs 1 gold to buy and you can find it in Stromgarde Ruins or buy it from Deneb Walker if you’re Alliance. Or, for Horde, it can be bought from Balai Lok’Wein in Brakenwall Village, Dustwallow Marsh.

You need to do a special quest before you can level from 225 to 300. For this quest your character level needs to be 35 and your skill needs to be at level 225. For the quest, Alliance faction should seek out Doctor Gustaf Van Howzen in Theramore Isle. If your Horde then find Doctor Gregory Victor in Hammerfall located in the Arathi Highlands.

In order to level your skill to the Master level, level 300-375, you need to find another book. Horde characters should look in Falcon Watch to find it, and Alliance players can go to Temple of Telhamat to find it. You can find the book to make Netherweave here as well.

In conclusion of the WoW first aid guide I want to mention a couple things. For healing to occur you’ll need to be standing still and make sure you’re not taking any damage. If you do take some damage or move when you’re trying to heal, then the healing will stop although what ever healing has happend you’ll keep. Lastly, you can’t cause damage to others while you’re healing. One way to solve this problem is to stun an enemy in order to give you time to heal. Use Heavy bandages to do this best.

Interesting things when it comes to DKs is they attack system which is not based on mana, rage or energy but it is based on runic power. They have two runes with a cooldown at their disposal for any attack and spell. The DK has three different types of runes: two Frost, Blood, and Unholy. Same goes for the talent trees a DK has – Frost, Blood and Unholy.

Death Knights wear armor made from plate, can cast spells and are also good melee dpsers.  A Death Knight can fulfill the role of a damage dealer and tank in a group or raid. They can wield one-handed and two-handed weapons but cannot equip a shield.

If you want to create a DK you will need to have another level 70 char in possession. The nice thing about the Dead Knight is that you start at level 55. Another nice thing is that your DK will start with bags, some money and green gear.

Your journey will start in The Ebon Hold in the Eastern Plaguelands. At first you will be fighting together with the forces of the Lich King. You will be taking direct orders from the Lich King himself during the quest chains that you should complete in the areas around the Ebon Hold. By completing the quests in this area you will receive your talent points and better gear. Because you start at level 55 you have missed out on some talent points but you can earn these back through questing.

When you reach the level 58 the quest chain you were following will change dramatically. You will be able to escape from the Lich King’s command and you will join his enemies to fight by their side. After this event occurs you will be able to go anywhere you like, however it is advisable to proceed to the Outlands since it will be easier for you to level up there. Your char will leave The Ebon Hold completely prepared when it comes to gear and talent points.

As for professions you have several options as a Death Knight. The choice of professions is solely up to you, however there are a few professions that can match a DK good. When it comes to most of the characters, Enchanting is a nice and useful profession to have because you will be able to enchant your rings. The ring enchants are just available to enchanters and when it comes to any spec they can be a really nice boost. Jewelcrafting/Mining combination is also nice since a Jewelcrafter will be able to make gems with better stats only for himself. Because a lot of gear has sockets at later levels this is a nice profession. With JC you will be able to craft other pieces of Jewelry as well, for example necklaces. Another nice option for a primary profession could be Blacksmithing because of the plate gear you can craft. Best accompanied by the Mining profession, you can also use Blacksmithing to make sockets in your gloves and wrists.

Playing a Death Knight will definitely bring you loads of fun. The only down point is that there are so many of them. The only thing that might bother you is that almost everyone has made a DK simply because you start at level 55 and it is fairly easy to level a char from there on.

Although Warriors happen to be great tanks they’re not limited to just tanking. Their almost unlimited choice in weapons and armor make them fantastic at Melee DPS. Warriors actually have a larger selection of armor and weapons than any other class.

Let’s start out in the WoW Warrior guide by looking at some of their strengths.

• Selection of Armor & Weapons: Warriors can wear pretty much any kind of armor including plate armor at level 40. They have an almost unlimited weapons selection. After leveling to 20 they can dual wield.
• High Hit Points
• DPS to Tank: Warriors can switch mid combat from DPS to Tanking.

Now we’ll take a look at some weaknesses and some challenges you’ll see as a Warrior.

• Gear Dependent: In order to be effective you must think about the best gear.
• Threat Reducing: They don’t have any real means of reducing threat
• Healing: They don’t have healing abilities

Three unique stances define the abilities of the Warrior, and are listed below.

• Battle Stance: The most balaced stance of the 3.
• Defensive Stance: Great for taking damage.
• Berserker Stance: This is made specifically for offense in that it’ll allow you to cause huge amounts of damage.

The following part of the WoW Warrior guide will look at the three types of talent builds; Arms, Fury and Protection and their various talents.

Arms: Talents

• Deep Wounds: Fantastic for inflicting damage.
• Taste for Blood, Improved Overpower, and Unrelenting Assault: Particularly good for Melee.
• Sudden Death: This in combination with Mortal Strike give you the ability to inflict massive wounds on your enemy in just 2 seconds.
• Trauma: Increases your output.

Fury: Talents

This one’s very gear dependent and shouldn’t be used for group play or raids. But it’s good for inflicting quick damage. Here’re some talents:

• Cruelty, Armored to the Teeth: This is an essential talent.
• Enrage: Really good for when leveling and playing solo.
• Flurry
• Bloodthirst: If you do play a raid then this will help keep you alive by helping you inflict massive damage and heals quickly.
• Titans Grip: Wield two handed weapons, Whirlwinds and Slams

The Protection build is particularly good for defensive play. Here are the talents.

• Incite
• Warbringer: Makes the Warrior basically unstoppable in PvP.
• Gag Order: Also good for PvP.

I won’t go into gearing up the Warrior in this WoW Warrior Guide but it’s extremely important to gear up right in order to be effective as a Warrior.
