Raid Boss Fights

Class Guides
While we do plan to have our own easy-to-understand and super awesome class guides up in the forums soon, one of the best sites for guides and information on every aspect of your class is Icy Veins. Everything from glyphs, to best in slot gear choices, to rotations are all included in this website.
Icy-veins.com If you prefer watching videos to reading, then another great set of guides can be found at Mikepreachwow! Mike Preach makes video guides detailing the basics on how to play your role and class and covers all the important information to get you started. Great for those boosted characters (so you can stop doing that baddie dps now...figglehorn...) MoP Tanking Guides MoP Ranged DPS Guides MoP Melee DPS Guides MoP Healing Guides |
Raid Add-Ons
While every class is going to use and prefer different add-ons, we've compiled a list of helpful ones that tend to be used universally and come in handy for a variety of encounters. These are going to be linked through Curse, as Curse tends to be the most used platform for add-ons in WoW. If you don't use Curse, you can download the client here.
Deadly Boss Mods - One of the most vital add-ons for raid awareness. This add-on will display boss timers, cooldowns, important fight events, and more. Recount or Skada - Both used for tracking raid-wide dps. Helpful when you want to know where you stand on the damage charts and can assist in fine tuning your DPS. Omen Threat Meter - Tracks your threat level against mobs. Mik Scrolling Battle Text - Organizes combat information (hits, heals, crits, etc) in an easy-to-read scrolling format that is very customizable. Replaces the Blizz "shove all combat info in a pile in the middle of the screen covering the mobs" standard set-up. |
Achievements, Quests, and Professions
Wohead is a huge source of information, whether is be about quests, professions, in-game items, NPCs, or anything you can think of, it's probably on the site.
Wowhead.com Wow-professions.com is an awesome resource for leveling your professions. This website includes information on farming mats and profession leveling for all World of Warcraft expansions. Wow-professions.com Thottbot is an oldie but goodie, and comes in handy when you need quest information like coordinates or objectives. Thottbot.com |
