Auction House Mastery

I'm sure you've noticed that when you play at different times and on different days, you run into different kinds of players. I think it is safe to say that weekend players are somewhat different from "week day" players. "Weekends only" players tend to be casual players and are often not really focused on gold-making as you may be. Most of them are not even aware of the economic schemes that go on in the game and so they will sometimes add an uncharacteristic superficial element to the Market for short periods of time.

With their high level chars, they are eager buyers of anything purple, and so the buyer's spike on the weekends floods the market with money and goods as they sell off their unwanted or surplus items.

Friday evenings are the best time to put in your goods so you can take full advantage of weekend buyers. When it comes to the weekend, sell early and buy late. Also, be on the lookout for undervalued items and many casual players don't really know the true value of their goods.

PvE Bible

pvethumbThere are a ton of raiding guides and they all claim to be the best, and the biggest and most thorough blah, blah, blah. But, the truth is that many of them are incomplete, poorly written, or basically incomprehensible.

So, when I found this new PvE Bible, I was excited to see what he could do with all that bulky end-game content. After all, with dozens of different encounters, hundreds of different modes, and thousands of different group compositions, there are a lot of different little details you can get snagged on in a raid.

You may know about this guy's PvP guide - it is still the biggest and best one on the Internet, months after its release. He has even further grown his profile with his monthly Warcraft Formula updates and now he has the PvE Bible which I think we all know will be a big success.

But, the real questions is whether or not the guide is going to be worth the purchase price. Is this thing as good as we are all assuming it should be?

I'm glad to say the answer is definitely YES!

Just to give you a quick idea of everything he throws in, this thing is complete with every single encounter in WotLK content up through patch 3.2 and is currently being updated for the new Onyxia encounter and the upcoming Icecrown Citadel. The guide is massive too – over 300 pages of solid content, all of it written with the deft hand of someone who understands what it takes to truly get through a raid with a group in mind (not just a single role).

If you need a raiding guide, don’t settle for the cruddy free stuff floating around out there. Check out what T Dub is offering with his PvE Bible – trust me, you won’t regret it.

World of Warcraft Gold Making Guides – Warcraft Millionaire

As you know, I'm always on the lookout for new World of Warcraft guides. I always want to find the best information from the guys and girls who really know what they're talking about.
So naturally, I was interested, but highly skeptical,  when I read about a guy claiming he was "about to become the first World of Warcraft millionaire." I mean, let's face it, I could say I was "about to become" Megan Fox's new boyfriend if I really wanted to (and I was delusional enough).
So while I've seen guys and girls with mucho gold, I've never seen anyone with a million, so I was willing to check this out. Here's the video that Brad made to talk about his claim.

So I'm sure you've played enough to understand that the only way you're going to become number one at anything in the game, is if it becomes your total obsession. You don't become number one in gold because you have a passing fancy in gold, you become number one because you're obsessed with how much gold you can accumulate. The first problem you run into is that there is a cap on how much gold any one character can own. Did you even know that? I didn't...

So here's the deal... most of us are not obsessed with any one facet of World of Warcraft. Most of us are "Total Game" players who "get into" the game as a whole, and while we would like to have more Gold, it isn't an obsession with us (or maybe it's a secret obsession).

This is where commercial guides like Warcraft Millionaire really prove their value. You're able to take advantage of someone else's obsession and shortcut the whole issue. You can learn in a few minutes what it took some "gold obsessed nerd" thousands of hours of game play to learn.

Now there is no question you could learn all this stuff on your own. There's nothing here that you couldn't discover on your own with a few thousand hours of game play. The question is are you willing to trade a couple of bucks of real money so you can cut right to the chase and start earning massive gold today?

At the very least, check out Warcraft Millionaire and see for yourself what the buzz is all about.

The Best Commercial Guides

If you're looking for a World of Warcraft Leveling Guide, these are the best!

Brian Kopps 1 - 70 Alliance Guide - The highly regarded and widely acknowledged best of the best. Most guides out there are simply grinding guides but Brian has proven many times that Questing is the best way to gain levels and, more importantly in my mind, it's a lot more fun! This guide includes step-by-step instructions for all races and classes. It's also packed with pictures and screenshots to show you exactly what to do and what to look for.

Brian is an expert at speed leveling and shows you the fastest way to complete multiple quests in one running. In most cases you will able to do big loops around a zone and knock quests off left and right so that by the time you get back to town to turn them in, you have a nice experience boost. Sweet!

One of the best features of this guide is that it shows you how to solo all the way to 70. You may need to group a few times throughout, but you'll never be dependent on needing a group again. Needing a group is also the most common mistake that people make and is the reason they resort to grinding. Another mistake that people make is that they try to complete every quest in a zone before they move on. What you should be doing is all the easier quests and then come back later when you level up for the final quests. This is exactly the kind of invaluable information that you need and this guide is packed full of tips, tricks, and completely legal ways to gain levels in the fastest and most fun way possible.

The Ultimate Bonus - Brian's guide includes an amazing mod that will uncover your entire map so that you can see everything before it's uncovered. It also allows you to import the special waypoint system that has every coordinate from the guide incorporated into it for even faster leveling so you don't have to search for coordinates with your mouse.

Since every coordinate is documented onto your in game map, you can easily set a waypoint and an arrow will show you the direction and how far it is to that destination. Then once you get there it automatically clears itself. Best of all this mod itself is 100% legal, it is not a cheat or a hack and you have zero risk of getting hacked.

I think you can easily see why I recommend Brian Kopps 1 - 70 Alliance Guide as the ultimate World of Warcraft Leveling Guide for Alliance players.


For you Horde players, I recommend -

Joanas 1 - 70 Horde Guide - Joana (who also plays as Mancow) has been the first to 60 now on 6 different servers! So far his best time is 4 days 20 hours playing time to 60 - this was done on the Jubei'Thos realm. He has this entire 4 day 20 hour run RECORDED, the whole thing is recorded and implemented into his guide!

His guide contains the same leveling strategies, questing patterns, techniques, and secrets he used to get the best record time to level 60 on a new server, which is 4 days 20 hours played!

One of the problems faced by all players is finding quest givers. This guide shows you where everything is at, all quest givers, all flight paths, all quest mobs, everything! They are all mapped out (with coordinates and visual maps) so you can focus on getting to 70 MUCH FASTER. In addition, all quests are linked to both Thottbot and Allakhazam for easy reference.

This guide is nicely organized into leveling areas with complete pictures on the exact paths to take. These pictures are VERY helpful. Everything is mapped out - the quest paths to take, where the quest mobs are at, where the quest givers are at, and so on and so on. You can use these illustrations for finding everything in the game world.

Every leveling area has full videos demonstrating how to do that area. These videos were taken during his record breaking 4 day 20 hour run on the Jubei'Thos server.

Whether you want to follow this guide step-by-step or simply just pick up what quests to get, what quests to avoid, where to do them, when to turn them in, etc. - and no matter what level you currently are - this guide can dramatically help you level a lot faster.

This guide is 100% legal; there are NO hacks or exploits at all in this guide.

Without question, Joanas 1 - 70 Horde Guide is the best World of Warcraft Leveling Guide available for Horde players.
