WOW Maps. The Ultimate World of Warcraft Guide?

Posted on March 27, 2011 by Dave Leave a comment

When playing something the size of WOW maps are essential. I think this is bourne out by the fact that when Blizzard first created World of Warcraft, they didn’t see fit to include maps of all the lower level dungeons for example. Now this could be seen as being particularly annoying because those dungeons are a lot longer and more winding than most of the level 80 dungeons.  Therefore you really have to know where you’re going in these lower level dungeons, which is a major problem because most players have never played them.  Fortunately, thanks to Dugi’s Dungeon Leveling Guide (part of his phenomenally successful Ultimate WOW Strategy Guide) , you’ll be able to find your way through with the in-game wow maps.  Leveling with the dungeon finder is a lot easier when you have maps to help you find your way.

This is a perfect example where having a proper guide actually enhances gameplay as opposed to diminishing it. Think of it as like shining a torch into a cave. You will experience far more as a result but you still play leading part in the exploration.

Maps in any form are a utility to be used as an aide not the solution, otherwise there would be no point playing the game at all. All you would do is just switch it on and then watch the game role out in front of you. If you want the sedantry life then stick to Coronation Street.

Another important feature of a dungeon leveling guide is the listing of all the dungeon quests.  The best way to maximize the amount of experience you earn from every single instance run is by completing the quests for them, but sometimes it can be very difficult trying to figure out where to pick up the quests.  In fact, some of these dungeon quests have prerequisite quests which much be completed on your own before you can be eligible to even accept the quests for the dungeons.  A dungeon leveling guide will help you figure out where you need to go and what solo quests you need to complete before you can accept the dungeon quests.

Criticism?

Unfortunately Dugi hasn’t managed to produce a 3D mapping add-on (as yet) which can be problematic when running up and down the steps in the dungeons, however he has managed to find a way round it which the following video points out. It also gives you a good opportunity to discover for yourself the level of detail in the maps incorporated into the guide

Now all I can suggest is that if you are seriously looking for wow maps to help you negotiate your way through all 85 levels of this amazing mmorpg you should seriously consider grabbing yourself a copy of Dugi’s Ultimate WOW Guides

Give Us This Day Our Daily Gold

Posted on March 27, 2011 by Dave Leave a comment

As you may well appreciate I can only scratch the surface of what is contained in a piece of software as complex as Ultimate WOW Guide but I thought I’d give you some info about one aspect of World of Warcraft that can hopefully provide a little help with your gameplay in the future. I’m looking at the subject of “Dailies” with specific reference to gold farming..

Dailies Guide for Gold Farming

Daily quests are an important part of World of Warcraft.  They’re used for gold farming, reputation farming, and some professions.  Dailies are the quests that appear as a blue exclamation point instead of the standard gold one, and they can be done once a day, every day.  Each of your characters can complete up to 25 daily quests per day, so you’ll want to pick and choose which ones you complete.

All daily quests will grant you some gold, but some will grant you more gold than others.  Here’s a quick dailies guide for gold farming to help you pick out the daily quests that bring in the most gold.  The highest paying gold dailies pay out 22 gold, but they do require having four other people to complete them, so we’re focusing this dailies guide on daily quests you can complete on your own.

Dailies Guide for Sholazar Basin

Each of the daily quest areas in Northrend have about the same number of dailies available, but Sholazar Basin has a couple of quests that do pay 20 gold.  There are 15 gold farming dailies in Sholazar Basin, although seven of them only pay 6 gold each.  However, three of the gold farming dailies in Sholazar Basin do pay 20 gold, and the rest of them pay 13 gold each.  This makes Sholazar Basin one of the highest ranking places for gold farming through daily quests.  Just remember to check both of the two daily quest areas in Sholazar Basin.  They are the Rainspeaker Canopy and Frenzyheart Hill.  One good thing about these two areas is that you will also earn reputation with either the Oracles or the Frenzyheart Tribe.

Dailies Guide for the Storm Peaks

If you’re looking for consistency as far as gold earned per daily quest, then you should check out the Storm Peaks.  There are 13 daily quests available in the Storm Peaks, and most of them pay 13 gold each.  Most of the dailies in the Storm Peaks are located in either Dun Niffelem or Brunnhildar Village, but there is also one located in K3 and one located in Frosthold.  Completing the dailies in the Storm Peaks is a nice way to do several quests all at once and walk away with some nice bank in a short amount of time.  Another note about the quests in the Storm Peaks is that most of them earn you reputation with the Sons of Hodir.

Dailies Guide for Icecrown Skybreaker

Another great place to do gold farming through daily quests is the Icecrown Skybreaker area.  There are 11 daily quests on the Skybreaker, although two of them do require groups of five people.  Those two pay out 22 gold, while the other 9 quests can be done on your own and pay out 13 gold each.  The nice thing about the Skybreaker is that all of these quests are located in a rather small area, so there’s less time running around and gathering up your daily quests.

Hope this has helped somewhat.

Cataclysm and Community

Posted on March 27, 2011 by Dave Leave a comment

I’ve tried to give you an honest view of Dugi’s guides and the role that wow maps plays within them. One of the most important things about the ultimate wow guides is they include lifetime updates as Warcraft is under continual development. A perfect example of this was the release of Cataclysm levels 80 – 85.

Using his regularly updated blogs Dugi keeps all the subscribers up to date as usual including regularly releasing videos (see below). In this way there is a feeling of everyone getting the personal touch and feeling valued by being kept up to date with all developments. It’s not just a case of taking people’s money for the guides, saying thanks and then leaving them to get on with it.

By doing this it helps to build a community around the guides which is further enhanced by the thriving forum covering various areas of the game as well as the guides including “General WOW Discussion”, “Alliance & Horde 1-85 Leveling” “Announcements” etc

Also included in the forum are “Testimonials” Here’s a couple of examples

Have to say, WOW Dugi!

I’ve been a WoW player now since Beta and had a few toons that I always max leveled and played on a regular basis. I loved my other toons (have 1 of each class) but the quest/level grinds were beginning to get to me and soon they fell by the wayside of my play time. I started with Dailies and Events guide and once I started seeing how good the app was, I’ve never turned back and picked up all the Alliance mods. I’m now almost fully level 85′s with all my toons. Only 1 level on my hunter and 4 levels on my warrior until I’m done.

Dugi, these guides make leveling those toons so much more enjoyable and completely lost track of time and worries as I just followed the arrows, killed everything I felt like killing and just turned in quest after quest.

Anyone considering this addon, the money is worth it. And not only is the app a complete joy, but Dugi’s customer service has never failed to impress me and I can’t recommend this service enough.

Good on ya Dugi! You got a customer for as long as you keep going with it. You provide a “GREAT” app and the service you provide is top notch.

Don’t hesitate, buy this guide!!!!!!

I have all of the guides Dugi has published. It has made playing WOW so much more fun and I get such a sense of accomplishment as I go through all of his guides. Buy them all!!!! Dugi and his staff stand by their product. He knows this game like the back of his hand. You will never be lost again and always have something to do. Earn tons of gold! Get great gear! He keeps making the guide better and better. Some publish a help guide and thats is it. Dugi keeps adding more and more guides and making it possible for you to advance your character with minimal effort.

Stop reading this and buy these guides. Just do it. You won’t regret it. I don’t leave posts for many of the things I buy on line, but it is my honor to say that if you don’t buy this set of guides from Dugi, you are making a huge mistake. Again, just do it!!!!!!

I think they put it far better than I ever could, but basically if you are looking for a  guide that that will aid you through all 85 levels of the greatest MMORPG there is then I suggest you grab yourself a copy as soon as possible.

Enjoy the following recently released video that shows how maps play such a big part in the guide.
