While there are many World of Warcraft strategy guides available online, they are not all worth it; Some are official released while others are created by experienced players. These guides have one goal, to help beginners to better understand the basic and advanced levels of the game. Most of these guides can be found online for free, but the best ones will cost you a little bit of money.

Our goal with this small strategy guide is to provide beginners with an overall strategy guide. Since this article is quite short, we won’t focus on a particular aspect of the game but rather show you how to get the most out of the game.

Which Class is Right For You

The best way to go about choosing a character class is to familiarize yourself with the various ones available and then pick the one that is the best fit for you. If you have always been a fantasy game players, chances are you will take the same type of character as in other games. As for the various races, just pick the one you like and don’t get lost in their racial abilities.

If youre not sure yet then try going for the parent classes such as the warrior and mage over hybrids like the druid or shaman. Playing these first will help you out on knowing the basics.

The Basic of Adventuring

Lots of leveling guides tell you how each class and race can level up more efficiently as well as gain the necessary gold and equipment along the way. Make sure you level up efficiently because if you level up slowly youll only get frustrated with your character and you wont be able to enjoy the character when its at its best.

Pick the right kind of profession for your character and make sure you make use of it to maximize your gold and equipment gain along the way. Almost all the primary and secondary professions in WoW require gathering, which can be done alongside questing.

So early on Saturday and Sunday I was working hard for exhalted in AV and starting the long road to AB/WSG faction so I signed up for every battle ground then chose the one I wanted.

Of course I immediatley hopped into AV when it opened. Imagine my disappointment when the message “This battleground will close in 5 minutes came up”. The 6 or 8 of us in AV quickly ran north to get the SH bunker, hoping more would join. Alas, the game ended and then I got the same reward I would have gotten if we would have lost: 125 faction for paying, 12 (maybe 6) per battleground and a token.

Now I’m on a loosing server so getting rewarded in AV so quickly was a JOY.

So my theory is that blizzard has a minimum of signups before it opens a battleground. Once the # of signups has been reached it offers each person the opportunity to join. The battle ground is committed to opening at this point. So if only 2 for WSG or 4 for AB or 10 for AV (example numbers) show up then Blizzard has to close the BG and gives everyone a thanks for playing.

I know you know this already. So why do you care? Because with a little planning you could get 150 av faction in 7 minutes. Do it 3 times and you got a set of tokens.

Here is a detailed plan of how to get quick AV faction:

1) You need to be on the less populated side of a server (most the times that is horde)
2) You need some accomplices to make this work. For WSG I think you need at least 5 people to start the game, for AB it is 7(?), for AV it might be 20.
3) You need all of you accomplices to join the queue early in the morning.
4) You need to hope the “other side” is lined up chomping at the bit to beat you down in your chose battleground
5) You need 1/2 of your accomplices not to join the BG or to drop out immediately.
6) You need to hang out in the BG for 5 minutes and hope it doesnt get busy.

And there you go!
