World of Warcraft General Gameplay

World Of Warcraft Mastery World Of Warcraft Guides/Videos & Bonuses Leveling, Gold & Macros Guides.

World of Warcraft is the most sold Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) to date. The game’s retail version was released in the United States late 2004, and immediately became a hit. It sold more than 650.000 copies the first three months before it was released in other parts of the world, making it the fastest growing online game to date compared to other MMORPGs. On 7th March 2007, the user base crossed an amazing 8.5 million active accounts.

On 16th January 2007 the first official expansion pack was released. The game sold nearly 2.4 million copies that day, breaking numerous records. The expansion was shipped with a lot of new content, including: Player versus Player Arena system, a new battleground, raised level cap (60 to 70), several new 5-man group dungeons as well as raid dungeons and a new profession.

When creating a character in WoW, you have several choices. You can pick between ten races and nine classes, each with their unique spells, abilities and play style. The main choice you will have to make is what side you want to join; the Horde or the Alliance. This will limit the people you can directly talk to in-game, as you will only be able to chat with characters from your own faction. You can only add a character as friend and group up with members from the same faction as you. Note this if you want to play with your friends; you should all join the same faction.

When you enter the world with your newly created character, you will see a brief cutscene-presentation of your race. You start the game as level 1, with almost no abilities. You do quests, explore and kill monsters to gain experience and items to level up and become stronger. Questing is the main method of gaining levels. Players who try to merely kill monsters all the time will find it much harder to advance in levels compared to those who do quests. The quests can vary from simple and dull to complex, interesting and fun. All the quests have a unique story to tell, making the world feel more alive. Sometimes you will also be rewarded for turning in quests, with for instance: Gold, potions, food, rare items, armour and weapons.

When you’ve quested your way to the level cap (currently 70) you’ll be able to access the end-game content. The main achievement in end-game is for most players, however you are of course not limited to this and may do whatever you please and find fun, is to gain good armour and weapons; equipment. The way this is done is usually split up in two types of play: Player versus Player (PvP) and Player versus Environment (PvE).

PvP consists of:

• Arena matches, where you create a team of 2, 3 or 5 people and then fight to the last team standing in the arena. Your Arena Team Rating (ATR) will change depending on whether you loose or win the match. The ATR change also depends on your opponent’s team. If they have a high ATR, you will gain a lot and vice versa.

• Honour, where you kill the opposing faction either in battlegrounds (which has an objective you will get bonus honour if completed), or in the open world.

• Zone PvP objectives, where certain zones have objectives you can complete to gain rewards. Examples are capture all the towers in a zone, gather rare materials which makes you very visible and bring it back to a camp and take over a city.

With all of the above you will either get tokens, marks or some sort of currency which you turn in for rewards.

PvE consists of:

• Instances, where you venture into dungeons with four other people and defeat monsters and bosses to get some kind of reward. Here, there is a luck factor involved, because each boss drops only one or two items every time, so you will probably not get what you need the first time you go there. However, instances are challenging, fun and you get a feeling of success after killing a hard boss.

• Questing, where you (alone or with friends) quest for rewards in the end of a long quest chain.

• Reputation, where you do tasks for a certain group or faction, and gain reputation for a job well done. Eventually, you will be promoted within their faction, and earn the right to buy rare items only sold by that faction.

• Raiding, where you and 24 other people venture into a raid dungeon for 25 people. These dungeons usually require a lot more time practicing on tactics for each and every new boss, but they are very rewarding. It’s uncommon to find people searching for these kinds of groups, as guilds travel together into these dungeons. If you want to try raiding, you should first get a guild.

Winning in World of Warcraft PvP

World Of Warcraft Gold Secrets The Original And Best-Selling World Of Warcraft Gold Guide Now Nearly 3 Years Running.


For those people interested in showing just how much skill they’ve acquired in World of Warcraft, PvP is the perfect way to go about it. With so many options and millions of possible combinations of armor, weapons and items, PvP is quite literally wide open for anyone to enjoy and do well in. For those that have found great joy in the PvP aspects of the game, there are numerous things you can do to make it even more fun and upgrade the intensity of your play.

Patience

You’re going to die a lot. Everyone does and you should be willing to accept that. If you are not, you’re going to die that many more times and be very unhappy about it. So, sit back, play the game and be prepared for a few hundred resurrections. You’ll learn from each one of them. And that’s where the key to success really lies, in the amount you’ll learn throughout the game from every situation in which you get resurrected. If you can learn quickly and figure out how to approach the battle more smoothly, you might be more successful over time.

Preparation

You should be fully prepared for every battle. That means setting up your tool bar especially for PvP. You can’t approach a fellow player with the same approach as you would a simple mob or boss. You must be able to capture them and defeat them. You cannot guess what they’ll do based on the pattern the computer has them set in. You must be able to react quickly to whatever jumping, twisting, or bashing moves they might throw at you.

You should have multiple different tool sets ready depending on which type of character you must face. You should not have the same tool set setup for a tank as you would a ranged fighter because you must approach them differently.

Practice

You should have a set routine for whenever you come across a PvP encounter. This way, you can flick out a few quick keyboard commands and have a full set of attacks completed before your opponent can even blink. Once you have a set up in place, practice again and again until you have it down flawlessly.

Using the Options

There are many in-game options that you can utilize to make PvP just a little bit easier and most people don’t take the time necessary to find these and use them. For example, you can simply and easily set up a display enemy cast bar to see what your enemy is doing and check you combat log to read what moves they used against you after you’ve died. Both methods will help you decide what actions to take and what weapons and armor will be more successful in the future.

For those that take the time to master and utilized PvP action in World of Warcraft, there are many rewards to be reaped. It just takes a little time, preparation and practice and you can be one of the best on your server in no time.
