Wowhead is still a little screwy with the professions right now.<BR/><BR/>I updated my pet collection!<BR/><BR/>http://www.warcraftpets.com/account/profile.asp?user=avariel#colSean Pezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00429252866172147539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-6142949868089961192008-11-15T20:16:00.000-05:002008-11-15T20:16:00.000-05:00This has happened to me recently with the new expa...This has happened to me recently with the new expansion release. I played the Death Knight through to 58 and the end of the new quests before levelling my main in Northrend. I did every last quest for the DK's without aid using my own intuition. I had to /leave 1 in the end because kids (i would bet 1,000g they are under 16) were asking where blah and blah was and 'wtf where has the lich king gone?!1!one'. Errr, dude/dudette, check the last quest you couldn't be arsed to read and you'll see he has moved down into Death's Breach...<BR/><BR/>As for the guides, if I had the money I might waste it on the guide but as one of wowhead.com's famous website lines states: 'It can't be cheating if the Internet lets you do it'. In the name of the environment (trees), money (outdated after a month if that) and sanity (why the hell have they printed all the god forsaken [no offense to undead implied] crafting recipes in that unreadable, small, cramped font - AGAIN!) <BR/><BR/>I play wow in windowed mode and often have wowhead.com in the background. A simple tab out, type in, and all I need to know about wow is before me. Free.

I've really *loved* the downpour of "Where is [insert totally obscure minor location in obscure locale]?" flooding guild chat from people trying to get The Explorer title. NO I don't know where Bonehead Reef is in Teldrassil... I'm an Undead Warlock, not a Night Elf Pathfinder. It's the same 2-3 people asking yet another location question EVERY FIVE MINUTES only to follow it up with "Oh nm found it lol". /endrantJon Blevinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02844700314444300514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-51374420862872416842008-11-14T19:26:00.000-05:002008-11-14T19:26:00.000-05:00I really haven't looked at the book, but the d...I really haven't looked at the book, but the discussion between my guildmates seemed pertinent to the subject. Using the book like you describe it, as a basic guide (with other sources to go into more detail when you need), seems to me like win-win.<BR/><BR/>And I never underestimate the need to have something on paper right beside you. >_> The trash around my computer is mainly old notes on quest coordinates and profession leveling.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275637177494490776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-56060681437705450252008-11-14T19:19:00.000-05:002008-11-14T19:19:00.000-05:00I can find information.

I like having something I can hold, and my husband uses the lists of recipes and gear as a personal checklist (he used the BC guide until it fell apart-literally0<BR/><BR/>Being able to find your own inf is KEY, but I still love a book.
