I already have a World of Warcraft account, Burning Crusade upgraded and everything, but no matter what I do (open ports, configure firewalls), Blizzard Downloader just isn’t working for me. I need a site where I can manually download and install the full World of Warcraft game, not the trial version. Please help me, I am getting very frustrated with Blizzard over this!

Download at: http://toxic-wow.net/guide/#s1
or look for torrent

I’m wondering, if I buy a World of Warcraft game off the American Amazon site, will the authentication key which I need to create an account work in Australia or is there area restrictions or something? Thanks!

If you have a lot of free time play the game, but if you don’t I highly suggest not.

Anyways, the game should work where ever you are. Also, you’ll be able to play in U.S. servers and more.

I am looking for a guild on the Oceana Frostmourne Server that is a large guild that does PVP and raiding… the more and the bigger the better

You would probably have much better luck posting in the official guild recruitment forums or the Frostmourne realm forum. You can find them at the following links:

Good luck finding a guild.

I want to know how you determine which swords would work best in the main and off hands of a Dual Wielding warrior on World of Warcraft. I don’t understand whether a lower sword speed would be best in the main or off hand and all that kind of stuff.

You need a perfect combination of both …. Speed and damage… and when u find one try and get another one for the other hand

Looking to play and network with people in my area that play world of warcraft.

kinda my guild has mostly from this area, if u wanna no more msg me

In the new World of Warcraft expansion pack, The Burning Crusade, players are able to choose from two new races. One of those new races is the blue-skinned Draenei, magic users of the highest caliber.

The Draenei are a race for the Alliance, pitting themselves against the merciless Horde. They are an ancient race, their origins dating back almost twenty five thousand years. They are derived from the Eredar, whom Sargeras coveted because of their powerful magic abilities.

Having been tempted by his offer to join his demonic horde, the leaders of the Eredar refused this destroyer of worlds. Sargeras was too powerful to face directly in open battle so those not willing to throw their lives away and join him were given the chance to go into exile. They renamed themselves the Draenei.

The Alliance race Draenei were chased and hunted for many thousands of years by the Legion. Hiding in their refuge far from their homeland, they were attacked by the orcs. The mighty demon lord that hunted them corrupted the orcs and made them fight the Draenei. This horde became his instrument of revenge and torture.

In the game of WOW: Burning Crusade, the Alliance race Draenei has six classes available to them. First is the Warrior, a primary melee combatant. The warrior is the tank of the party, the one able to withstand the most punishment and can also deal out a great amount of pain to the enemy.

Next is the Paladin, a warrior for good that also has some minor healing ability. This class can back up the Warrior in hand-to-hand fighting or heal and protect everyone in the party.

Another class is called the Hunter. The Hunter attacks foes from a distance using a variety of long range weapons like bows or black powder instruments. They are woodsmen and gatherers. Hunters have a huge advantage over other fighters by inflicting damage from far away.

The next class available to Draenei players is the Priest. Priests are very important for any party because of their powerful ability to heal and resurrect fallen warriors. Battling in the World of Warcraft massively multiple player game won’t go so well if your character is dead. Priests can heal the fighters to get them back in the action fast.

A Shaman is a mystical practitioner of magic that draws power from the elements using totems and spells. They are spiritual leaders and are considered a solid hybrid in this expansion pack for WOW.

The final available class for the Draenei is the Mage, the primary magic users of any party. The Mage is a great class for those that wish to play the game alone as they can summon powerful creatures to do their bidding for them. Mages cast offensive spells that can disrupt and damage the enemy.

If you’re playing a World of Warcraft Player versus Player (WoW PvP) combat, you’re a target. Many PvP players hate Warlocks, while even more fear them. Your ability to curse other characters to death makes you a vicious opponent, and a powerful one. Despite your powers, you aren’t indestructible, and many of your opponents would like nothing better than to put you down. Life is very interesting for Warlocks in PvP combat.

It’s pretty easy to play a Warlock in PvP. All you need to do is lay a bunch of DoT (Damage Over Time) spells on your poor victim, then keep casting Fear on them until they fall over dead. Simple and brutally effective, if you do it correctly.

Warlocks also can drain mana from other characters and can regenerate their own health. On top of that, they can be optimized to be extremely dangerous against casters due to their Felhunter, a pet seemingly designed to slaughter mages. To sum it all up, if you know what you are doing, your Warlock can defeat any other character class.

A poorly trained Warlock, on the other hand, isn’t going to last very long in Player versus Player combat. Warlocks can’t attack or defend themselves without magic, so they are at the mercy of any character that can resist their magic, or somehow drain the Warlock’s mana before the Warlock kills them. A veteran Warlock player knows the skills necessary to deal with any opponent capable of resisting their magic. This is where a top Warlock PvP Guide comes into the picture.

Warlock PvP Guides are incredibly important. As a Warlock, you will find it almost impossible to defeat some classes without a well-honed strategy. You can learn how to do it the hard way, in battle or you can invest in a Guide book.

For example, if a Priest succeeds in draining most of your Warlock’s mana, it will be very hard to retaliate. Also, Priests and Paladins have dispel abilities which allow them to remove your curses, taking away some of your most potent weapons. You need to know what each class will do against your Warlock, as well as how often they can use their counters against you.

A quality Warlock PvP Guide will answer these questions for you. In general, your best bet to being successful with a Warlock in PvP is to go into combat with a set of preplanned tactics that you will adjust on the fly, depending on the situation.

In a quality Guide, you’ll learn what and when to cast against each class, how they are likely to attack you, and how to respond to their attacks. You’ll know how to take on each class in solo duels, and what to do as part of a 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5 team.

Even if you do decide to learn the ins and outs of Warlock PvP combat yourself, you’ll find that a quality PvP Guide will contain information that you’re unlikely to discover on your own. In short, a good PvP Guide will save you a big block of time you would otherwise have to spend dying in battle before you become skilled at PvP combat.

In recent years the gaming industry has taken monumental jumps. It has kept up with the also ever increasing technological capabilities and now, for some games it’s hard to tell if you’re watching TV or playing a game. I think the best type of games are the type you really can’t beat because then they never get boring and they never become one of those programs that sits on the shelf and never moves. A good example of these games are the many different type of simulators put out by Microsoft, also, the ever popular “SIMS” games, but what I would like to talk about is “The World of Warcraft”

This is a game that can be played by people of all ages and skill level. I’ve watched the community to see what it is all about and have found that “world of warcraft” is a literal name. There is really an entire world of people devoted to the game. If you have had the game for a while and have kept it to yourself, you’re missing out. Join the community and see how many different new ideas and secrets you can find.

I have found that it is important to develop your own technique, but after that you need to go to different people within the community and learn about other people technique. This is not to say you need to change, but you probably will be able to adjust and be even more successful. Have you ever heard the phrase “4 eyes are better than 2″ well imagine thousands of eyes. I’m sure there are many things that you missed, and will be able to go back and find after talking to people and getting there ideas.

You can also play this game online. Although I don’t have experience playing WOW online, I have played many games online and find it very fun. I think it’s a lot better when you know you’re playing a person rather than a computer. It adds even more realism to the game, or any game for that matter.

Me personally, I love to explore. I can’t get enough of it. These days it’s hard to get out and explore the world so why can’t we do it online, and settle just a little bit of the desire to explore new things. That is why I like simulator games so much. I am not limited to what the game can provide. I can keep adding new “add on” There is an unlimited amount of things you can do, but the key is to join communities. Do your research. There are many books you can get that will also help you build your experience. In any game and especially WOW you need to read and research. It’s not a game that you just jump into and start shooting things. You need to want to put time into it, expect that you will start out small and get larger, but only if you’re willing to put the effort and time into it.

This is not work though, this is fun, you should be jumping at the idea of how long it will take, and you are never “the best” at Warcraft because there is always something new you can learn. I would suggest to go to Goggle and type in forums and message boards for WOW, take the time and read through them before you join, choose the one that will fit your goals the best and start posting and asking questions.

Power leveling is something that all too many people are doing these days – it is not right, and it should not be done. Not only does it break the Terms of Service, but it demeans anyone who has worked hard to achieve a high level character.

What is Power Leveling?

When a person power levels their World of Warcraft character, it means they have given their username and password to another person or a company who then levels up a specific character. There are companies online that you can find by doing a simple Google search that will provide this service to you – for a price. You can also go through specific people, though this may cost more, or through a friend.

How Much Does Power Leveling Cost, Anyway?

Various companies charge differently, depending on how many levels you want. Most ask to start with a brand new, never touched level one character, because it is easier for those who are doing the actual leveling.

On average, you can expect to pay at least $100.00 for forty levels, and you can spend over $1,000.00 for a 1-60 leveling. Many companies offer different rates depending on your class, too – if one class is easier to level then the others, you will be charged less.

How Risky is Power Leveling and Why?

First and foremost, you need to be aware that power leveling violates the terms of service (As mentioned above), which means your account could be deactivated instantly, no questions asked, and no way to retrieve any characters on the account.

When you give someone your account username and password, they can then change your account password – meaning they can lock you out of your own account. You may not even notice this for a while, since many companies will ask you not to log into that account while power leveling is going on.

When you give someone access to your account like that, you also give them access to all other characters on that account, which means all of your armor, gold, and items on any other characters could easily be sent to another character – one that isn’t yours, but theirs. Any work you’ve put into your character could be gone in a flash, and you could be left with a handful of naked, item-less characters.

How Does Power Leveling My WoW Character Violate The Terms of Service?

It is clearly stated in the terms of service that you may not share your account information with anyone.

From The World of Warcraft Terms of Service:

During the registration process, you will be required to select a username and a password that are unique to the Account (collectively referred to hereunder as “Login Information”). You may not share the Account or the Login Information with anyone other than as expressly set forth herein.

It is also stated later in the terms of service that Blizzard Entertainment is entitled to end your account with no notice, and for no reason known to you. So, with power leveling your character, if Blizzard was to find out, your account could be terminated completely, without warning and without any notice.

Overall, it is a good idea to just say no to power leveling.

Just say no.

It is not so easy to search out a quality World of Warcraft horde leveling guide. It is due to the prevalency of the alliance, many gamers do not play the horde as often. This is the reason why the horde guides will be less widespread. If you have done any sort of research on the web for one, you possibly mention the same one popping up repeatedly.

Joana’s Horde Leveling guide is the the only one that seems to be dominating the internet presently. The reason is that it is the only guide available, or is it actually that effective? Joana managed to achieve the fastest times leveling on many servers. By now there has been little competition published on the internet.

Well, being a World of Warcraft gamer and wanting to level my undead {character, I finally searched out and got Joana’s Horde leveling guide. There is no need to point out, it is a very well put together guide with excellent videos. You see the added advantages of this guide is that you actually get to see how Joana levels from one to eighty in record time. This of course takes substentional time to watch so if you choose this method, be prepared.

As a Horde leveling guide it is solid. Joana has put together many effective leveling strategies that has helped many players in leveling Horde characters. The guide itself is broken down into many races so that depending on the type of character you are going to play, you have a good instruction template.
