If you have played World of Warcraft, then you must now the classes. One of the most famous classes in World of Warcraft is the mage class. As it name applies, the mage class uses magic to cause much damage to your enemies. Mage also known for their special abilities of crowd control. Mage can freeze enemies in one place all at once. This should be very effective when fighting lots of enemies. Mage can also polymorph the enemy into a sheep and make them a weak opponent.

Although a mage is one of the most famous classes in World of Warcraft, it still has its own weaknesses. Mage is very effective for medium or long range combat. But if they are force to fight in close range combat, a mage is more likely to lose the battle. Mage also weak in physical defense. It is better to stay far away from an opponent. Magic attack is very powerful but need sometimes to cast a spell. If you are fighting in a wide open area, you will have more time to cast a spell since your enemy is also far from you. Wide open area also gives a mage enough spaces to run around avoiding physical attacks.

In World of Warcraft, mage classes are one of the most versatile classes. Here some tips to use if you choose your character to be a mage. This tips will make your adventure easier.

1. Always cast your most powerful spell when given the chance. But since casting a powerful spell will need sometimes, it is better if your distance with the opponent quite far. Do not bother to cast a weak spell. When the first spell successfully hits your enemy, then start a new powerful spell casting right away. Hopefully you can hit your enemy with two spells and kill him, before the enemy reaches you to strike a blow.

2. If you are in a close range combat and the enemy has already strike a successful blow to you, immediately freeze your enemy and then run away from him. If there is a another enemy, freeze him too and cast polymorph spell to turn the second enemy into a sheep. Then you hit the first opponent until he dies. Immediately heal yourself before the effect of polymorph spell on the second enemy wears off. Now you are in full health, or at least having more health and ready to strike the second opponent.

3. The greatest weakness of mage class is in physical defense. So it will be very wise if you equip with lots of potion. Potion is needed to restore your lost HP due to fighting. The Auction House is a place where you can easily buy potion with a great price. But you need to look around for potion with a good deal. Elixir is also another thing you need to equip. Elixir will increase your spell power and intellectual. Elixir can also be easily bought at the Auction House. If you did not want to buy potion or elixir, you still have another option which is creating the item yourself. You just need to combine alchemy with herbalism and create potion or elixir on your own.

4. A mage weapon is a staff or a wand. I would suggest for you to get a wand. Why? Because a wand is more flexible and handier when you need to attack from a distance. A wand also great when your character is low on mana. With a wand, you can easily freeze the enemy and then back up a little bit while you shoot the enemy with a spell or just regular attack.

5. Arcane intellect is very important for a mage. So do not ever forget your arcane intellect. You will need this power to be up all the times along with another power of your choice. And remember to make a good use of your elixir. Elixir can be very helpful.

6. In the World of Warcraft, herbalism is a very good profession for a mage class character. When your characters level is high enough, your mage character can learn a very important skill which is Lifeblood. What is Lifeblood? Well, it is basically a powerful spell, not an attacking spell, but for healing or restoring your health in the middle of a battle. When you mastered this very useful spell, your journey will be a lot easier since now you have another option beside potion to restore your health.

7. If you are being ambushed by the enemies, try your best to run away from the opponents. As I mentioned before, mage is weak in defense. Use blink to move away from the enemy. In case you did not know, blink is a spell for teleporting your character in a short distance, just to give enough space from the enemy. Other than blink, freeze is also a good spell. Use the combination of this two spells in combat and hopefully you will be able to win the fight.

Above tips will be very useful for your quest in Azeroth. A mage class character is powerful in medium and long range combat but weak in close range combat. So above tips will be very effective to win combats and making your character to level up quickly.

Have you ever wondered from where the surname Smith originated? In fact, the Anglo-Saxon term smitan (meaning to smite or hit) eventually led to the occupation of blacksmith. A worker would use a hammer to strike metal, with the objective of forming it. When playing World of Warcraft, use a World of Warcraft blacksmithing guide to hit more success.

Blacksmithing ” Who Needs It? In World of Warcraft (WOW), characters use the profession of Blacksmithing to transform metal into needed weapons and armor. Death Knights, Paladins, and Warriors are the classes for which blacksmithing is the most popular. This is due to the fact that such fighters can utilize the weapons and armor that they manufacture.

Making a New Career As with other World of Warcraft professions, players have to first buy training from a trainer. In typical fashion, you can find Blacksmithing trainers in bigger settlements or in major cities. After a trainer gives you what you need for the first skill level in Blacksmithing, you get supplies from the NPC, or Nonplayer Character, near the trainer.

Materials and Tools Workers in World of Warcraft have to have the right tools. To make most items needed, the Blacksmith needs an anvil and hammer, with most towns and cities in WOW selling hammers. Anvils can frequently be found near repair vendors.

Besides a solid hammer, a Blacksmith needs metal (i.e. copper ore). While you could purchase the metal, that method can be quite pricey. Thus, it is highly advisable that a Blacksmith make mining his second job.

Blacksmiths will require other materials, such as leather, cloth pieces, or items that an alchemist makes. Do you just want to increase your skill level? If so, then begin by creating items that require the fewest number of materials. Keep producing those orange items until they become green.

“Masses’” Metal In addition to using Blacksmithing to make weapons and armor for yourself as a player, you can also sell goods you make at the Auction House. Blacksmithscan also produce certain quest items exclusively. You can also make certain items for workers who need them for certain professions, such as Enchanting.

Blacksmithing Levels for the World of Warcraft When it comes to the WOW (World of Warcraft) Blacksmithing guide, you need to know what the various skill levels in it are. With World of Warcraft, the Blacksmith’s skill levels are the same as other professions in the game. The skill levels as they exist, and the skill levels needed are (from top on down) Master, 300, Artisan, 225, Journeyman, 150, and Beginner, 75.

If you’ve enabled the Burning Crusade, though, you can boost your skill level to 375. Specializing As a Blacksmith, you can specialize in five different levels, which include: Sword Smith Hammersmith Weapon Smith Armor Smith Axe Smith

Unfortunately, you cannot change your specialization after selecting one. Furthermore, you must finish the corresponding quest to access each of the specializations.

In short, World of Warcraft is more than just about war. Take a look at a World of Warcraft Blacksmith guide before you begin your own career in Blacksmithing.

Do you have a WoW guide? You may think that they are just for newbies, but you are wrong on that one. You see, they are for anyone and everyone that plays the game. You may think you are an expert, but there are probably tons of techniques you still need to learn. For instance, do you know about the retribution talent tree for Paladins? What about the arcane, frost and fire for the Mage? Do you know which one is best? Well, if you had one of those guides, then you would know which one is the best. As we continue this article on World of Warcraft, we are going to be telling you a bit more information about these booklets.

Do you have a Mage? Perhaps you have a Hunter or something different? Whatever you have, we are sure you will be able to find a guide that is specifically written for that class you have chosen. Although, there are also ones that are written for a specific faction. Take note that there are only two factions. You have the Horde and the Alliance. If you are playing on the Alliance side, then you need to make sure you get information for the Alliance side.

There were so many different guides out there. There was Joana’s leveling, Duigi’s Ultimate and much more. We must admit, we were a bit skeptical at which one to choose from. However, with a little bit of research, we found a really good one, which really helped us out.

Within a couple of days (playing 2 hours at a time), we gained enough gold to not only get that epic mount, but to get some extra armor for 500 gold that we had been staring at in the Auction House.

Not only is there guides that are based on gaining gold, but there are also ones that will show you how to level up quicker. Inside those books, you will learn what quests you should go on.

Would you like to have a good search tip? There are many out there that have established a good reputations. For example, do a search for “4 of the best known World of Warcraft guides” and you will find: Joana’s Horde, Brian Kopp’s Alliance, Dugi’s Ultimate and Luke Brown’s Gold Guide.

You see, even by doing PVP battles, you will be able to get somewhere, so all of those guides you see on this subject are not worthless like you think. It really does take some skills when it comes to winning those battles.

Apart from everything else, amongst the WoW guides, you could also come across those wonderful ones that tell you about quests. Believe it or not, there are quests that you should do, while there are ones you should do. You can also come across those ultimate ones that will show you how to do everything.

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.

World Of Warcraft Horde Guide – WOW Horde Guide – Levelling Guide – Joana’s 1-70 Horde Levelling Guide. I made this guide for people who are tired of grinding levels, looking up how to do quests and trying to figure out the right ways to level up.  If you’re confused as where you should be leveling at, then you have come to the right place. World Of Warcraft – WOW – Horde Levelling Guide  

Alright, I decided to write this little ‘mini-guide’ because I keep hearing about people having problems with priest.

Priest is honestly not a hard class to play if you know how to play it right.

This isnt a guide to go out and kill Onyxia solo, this is for the average fight you encounter wherever, knowing how to start a fight properly, and knowing how to react to a sudden attack.

This really only applies to Soloing.

I. Starting a fight: This is for the times when you see a mob and have time to set up an attack.

1.Preparation
a. First thing you do is make sure all of your buffs are in order, Power Word: Fortitude, Inner Fire, Etc.
b. Pop on Power Word: Shield. Alot of people make the mistake of putting on PW:S after youve already hit the mob with your pulling spell..this is WRONG…so dont do it. Instead, turn on PW:S and wait until you have about 15 seconds left on it before attacking. Most mobs take down your shield within 15 to 20 seconds, this way your mana will have time to recharge plus, by the time the mob takes down your shield, you’ll be ready to pop on another one.

2. The Actual fight (first blow to last)
a. Many people start the fight with Mind Blast because it does the most damage and takes the longest to recharge, wrong. dont do it. Start the fight off with Smite…Yes you heard me, Smite. Nobody mentions smite in their guides because it takes FOREVER to cast. This is why you cast it in the beginning. The mob will then start rushing towards you. You want your second attack to be Mind Blast because you can cast it in the amount of time it takes the mob to get to you. From there you want to hit the mob with Shadow Word: Pain and start the DOT process. (If youre in a group, or taking damage at any point in the fight, cast Vampyric Embrace to get some health back)
b. So far your attacks should be (IN ORDER)
Smite
Mind Blast
Shadow Word: Pain
c. For the rest of the fight you want to cast in this order.
Mind Flay
Mind Flay
Mind Blast
Repeat.
And apply SW: Pain or PW:S again when necessary

II. Sudden attacks
1. Alot of the time youre going to get attacked by mobs that just spawned or ones that you didnt see. The outcome of this fight is dependant on reaction time…so the biggest tip is this. KNOW YOUR HOTKEYS. Quick reaction time can save you from certain death.
a. First things first, pop on Power Word: Shield. This thing should give you enough time to get the next couple of spells in.
b. Vampyric embrace, dont bother with Renew, Minor Heal, Flash Heal, or Heal, These take too long to cast and take up way too much mana. Rather regain health as youre attacking, your DOTs should bring you the amount of health that you need.
c. Shadow Word: Pain to start the DOT process.
d. From there just follow the steps in section 2 based on a normal fight.
Mind Blast
Mind Flay
Mind Flay
Mind Blast
Repeat.
And apply SW: Pain or PW:S again when necessary

This is really more of a guide to soloing than a group guide, its also entirely dependent on you being a shadow build.

PS: You cant cast Smite while in Shadow Form. Take that into account.
