My Ulimate WoW Guide Review
Overall: 5/5 Stars
You’ve seen the other guides out there, and they really aren’t bad at all. They work. Every one of them has a different idea of how you should level to get to 80 the quickest and to get the best gear, etc. So is one really better than the other? Honestly, not really. If you want to go that route I would just pick one and use it.
But….if you want more….if you want to DOMINATE the game and not just “get by”, then you need to look very closely at the Ultimate WoW Guide.
First:
Easiest and simplest guide to use. We believe we provide the FASTEST leveling route which makes our guide the BEST in the market.
Second:
While our competitors are focused on making their guide look better, we focus on the guide itself and better functionality. Other guides can become too complicated for the average user, which can discourage them from using it.
Third:
The best writers around, in the WoW business since 2004! Plus, not only do they offer a leveling guide, but a dungeons guide, and a dailies and events guide as well. You WILL DOMINATE the game with Dugi’s guides!!
RECOMMENDATION: Buy it now. I use it and LOVE it. It completely dominates every other guide out there. No joking. You won’t be sorry.
Profession Guide – Warrior
Warriors are the main tanking class in World of Warcraft but they can also be good dps, depending on the spec they choose. They wear mail armor while leveling and on the 40th level they get to wear plate which will stay as the best choice of gear for them on higher levels.
Their choice of weapons depend upon their spec. Manly the tanks wield one-handed weapons and shields and the dps Warriors wield two-hander weapons.
Blacksmithing and Mining
Since Warriors are plate wearers usually the best possible combination of professions for them would be Blacksmithing and Mining. Mining as itself is a profession that accompanies few other primary professions and helps speed up its leveling and also gives the Toughness buff which will increase your Stamina by 50.
Blacksmithing on the other hand is something Warriors can definitely use during their leveling and after during the playing. With Blacksmithing as their main profession Warriors can craft many usable goodies like weapons, shields, armor sets, rods that’s enchanters need, sharpening stones and buckles. Eternal Belt Buckle in example is a nice addition to the belt of any class and will boost their stats; however it will only work on items that have no slots for gems. In order to be a level your Blacksmithing skill you will need a Blacksmith Hammer and a Forge. You can find Forges in all the major cities and also in smaller villages. If a Warrior chooses to become a Blacksmith he/she can at some point choose between becoming an Armorsmith or a Weaponsmith. If one chooses to become a Weaponsmith he/she can then choose between Sword, Axe or Mace smith depending on their choice of weapons.
Alchemy and Herbalism
It is not so common to see a Warrior with these two professions but some do take it since these professions are quite useful for raids, instances and even for grinding. They are also two of the gold making professions, which means that all that you gather or create you can sell to other players or on the Auction House. Warriors definitely need healing potions and elixirs that will increase their armor value of overall health during long boss fights. There are also few usable flasks which will have an effect on them even after death. With Herbalism also comes a new skill called Life Blood which can heal you for 2000 over 5 seconds. It is very nice for Warriors since they have no healing abilities.
Other
Other useful professions for a warrior could be Enchanting, Jewelcrafting, Engineering and Inscription. These professions could come in handy. Inscription is nice because of the Glyphs you could make for yourself and you can also sell them on the Auction House. With Enchanting a Warrior can enchant his/her weapon, shield, and other parts of the armor. Warriors can also benefit from the ring enchants which Enchanters can do only on themselves. With Jewelcrafting they will be able to craft gems that are unique to equip and which will enhance their overall stats. Engineering is nice because you could make ammo, guns, bombs, lock-pick keys and other useful gadgets and also some nice gear pieces like Armored Titanium Goggles.
Profession Guide – Warlock
Warlocks are one of the most powerful damage dealers in World of Warcraft. They can only wear cloth and since the Wrath of the Lich King their gear is spirit based even though they still need a lot of stamina and intellect.
Tailoring and Enchanting
Tailoring and Enchanting are usually paired professions when it comes to Warlocks. Since Locks wear cloth tailoring is proven to be very useful for them while leveling and even on higher levels since the gear they can make with is sufficient to be a good pre-raiding gear. By doing achievements they can obtain two epic cloak patterns from the tailoring trainer. A tailor Warlock can make embroidery for pants which can improve his stats, also could sell it to other players on the Auction House. If he/she would choose to buy it from other tailors it would cost some valuable mats and gold, while by being a tailor it only costs two Ethernium threads. Same goes for a few cloak improvements that tailors can make themselves. Another nice thing for Warlock tailors is that they can make bags, especially Abyssal Bag which is a 32 slot Soul bag where a Lock can put his/her Soul shards.
The Enchanting on the other hand fits Locks perfect since they are dps casters and always need a lot of enchants to improve their performance in raids and instances and also in PVP. Disenchanting is also quite useful for any class and Warlocks are no exception. They could disenchant all the stuff and gear they don’t need or want into valuable items like shards, essences and dust. These items could be easily sold on the Auction House or used for enchants Locks themselves would need. While leveling Tailoring Enchanting is a profession that helps a lot. There are also few enchants that an Enchanter can put only on himself, like ring enchants with increased stats and spell power which would make a good Lock be even better.
Alchemy and Herbalism
Alchemy and Herbalism are always nice to have for any class especially casters and healers since they use a lot of potions. Locks can also make a lot of usable flasks and elixirs for themselves to boost their performance in raids and while playing instances or sell them on the Auction House for a lot of gold. With Herbalism since the WOTLK expansion comes also a nice healing buff called Life Blood which will heal you for 2000 over 5 seconds. It is nice for Locks since they use Life Tap.
Other
Other useful professions for Warlocks could be Jewelcrafting, Engineering and Inscription. Inscription is nice just because it is a useful profession, which will enable you to make useful Glyphs that you can use or just simply sell on the Auction House. With Engineering you will get to make nice mounts, gadgets and armor pieces such as Goggles, which are favored by the caster dps classes. Injectors for mana and healing potions are also useful since they will save up some space in your bags. Jewelcrafting is great since with it a Warlock can make nice rings, necklaces and valuable gems which are unique and soulbound to the wearer. If a Warlock would choose mining he/she would get a nice buff called Toughness which will increase your Stamina by 50, while with Skinning i.e. a Lock can get a buff called Master of Anatomy which will increase his/her critical strike rating by 32.
Profession Guide – Shaman
Shamans are one of the few hybrid classes in World of Warcraft. For Shammys this means that they could either spec to be healers – restoration tree, casters – elemental tree or melee dpsers – enhancement tree. No matter which spec you choose, one could surely say Shamans are loads of fun to level up and play.
Leatherworking and Skinning
Easy to level and quite useful, these two professions could actually be the first choice of a Shaman. Why? Simply because Shamans are mail wearers and with Leatherworking leveled up they can make nice pieces of gear for themselves no matter what spec they are. If they would like to make it more profitable, Shaman Leatherworkers could also craft mail pieces of gear for Hunters or leather pieces of gear that will suit Rogues and Druids. Another nice thing which comes together with Skinning is a buff called Master of Anatomy which will increase your critical strike rating by 32.
Jewelcrafting and Mining
Jewelcrafting could be one of your choices if you are playing a Shaman on the Alliance side since the only race that could play a Shaman are the Draenei and this race by default has +10 on Jewelcrafting. In any case Jewelcrafting is a nice profession to have and is best paired with Mining. With this profession you will have benefits of the stone statues that will heal you up when in trouble while leveling and even after, nice rings and necklaces and what’s the most important gems that you could put in the sockets of your gear. Prospecting is one of the skills that you will get together with the Jewelcrafting profession. Prospecting will allow you to extract valuable gems from ores that you will gather while Mining. These two professions are not only useful for yourself, since you can also craft unique-equipped and soulbound gems, but also because they are very profitable. Mining is also very nice because it gives a buff called Toughness which will increase your Stamina by 50.
Other
Enchanting is always nice to have since every character, no matter which class or spec will need his/her gear to be enchanted. In some rare cases Elemental and Restoration Shamans pair this profession with Tailoring, since they can make good casting pre-raiding gear with it and because they are able to wear cloth. Since they are casters/healers they usually stay behind and get no damage so the armor bonus of mail gear pieces doesn’t matter much to them. Nevertheless it is always advisable to wear the highest gear you can and there is definitely nice mail gear that could be also crafted with Leatherworking for these two specs. Alchemy and Herbalism are two professions that can always come in handy for every class, not to mention that they are quite easy to be leveled, plus a bonus buff called Life Blood which will heal you for 2000 over 5 seconds. Inscription together with Herbalism could be also nice for a Shaman since the Glyphs he/she could make could be very useful and there are a lot of different glyphs differing on the spec you have and totems and spells you are using. Engineering and Mining could also be fun since you will be able to craft some armor pieces for yourself and other useful gadgets.
Profession Guide – Rogue
In World of Warcraft, Rogues are a pure melee dps class. Their performance and spec depends on what kind of game play they choose, PVE or PVP. They are leather wearers.
Leatherworking and Skinning
Leatherworking and Skinning are two professions that suit Rogues perfectly since they wear leather. Skinning is a profession which is easy to level up and matches leatherworking really good. If a Rogue chooses to pair Leatherworking and Skinning he/she won’t be sorry. With leatherworking Rogues can craft their armor while leveling and also nice epic armor sets on higher levels. A leatherworker Rogue can craft Armor Kits as well. These are used to boost the stats of one’s armor ad could be also sold on the Auction House. Icescale Leg Armor will be one of the interesting things for you as a Leatherworker Rogue. This is improvement which could be attached to your pants to improve your stats like attack power and critical strike rating, which are very important for a Rogue. If you prefer to play PVP, Earthen Leg Armor would be nice for you since it will boost your Rogue with 28 Stamina and 40 Resilience rating.
Leatherworking is fairly easy to level up since all you need are the skins from the beasts which are obtainable by skinning of course. It is said that Skinning and Leatherworking are the two fastest professions one can level up. Another thing Rogues will love is the Master of Anatomy buff that gives +32 on the critical strike rating and comes with Skinning as one of your primary professions.
Engineering and Mining
Engineering is also a commonly used profession by Rogues. Mining however accompanies it and makes its leveling faster. There is a nice benefit that you will get from mining, a buff called Toughness. This buff will increase your Stamina by 50. With Engineering a Rogue could make Weakness Spectralizers a nice head piece with Meta socket and a lot of stats. Healing injector kits are also nice to save up some space in your bags. Gnomish Army Knife is one of the things your party or raid members will love you for. With this you could return a dead player back to life. It cannot be used while in combat but since a Rogue can go into stealth if his/her group is about to wipe, he/she can try to resurrect a dead healer and save the group and also some time the group would waste corpse running.
Other
Herbalism and Alchemy are always nice to have since one can make various elixirs, potions and flasks usable for PVE game play, if one chooses to raid or do instances. Also there is a buff that Herbalism gives called Life Blood which heals you for 2000 over 5 seconds and can be used while you are invisible or stealthed. Sounds good for a rogue that can only use bandages to regain health back, doesn’t it? Blacksmithing is nice as well if for Rogues that choose to become Weapon Masters so they can create weapons for themselves. Even though this profession fits better the plate wearers, on higher levels it can suit Rogues just fine. Jewelcrafting could be nice too because you could craft various gems that are unique and that only you could equip which will boost your gear with nice stats.
