Tired of spending months leveling your character to get to the endgame content?

I certainly was. Bored of my L80 Mage I wanted to start all over again, this time with a horde Warrior, but just the thought of how much time it would take made me hesitate. So I started to look for good guides worth the money. Spending a large amount of money on powerlevling or buying a char on e-bay just don't appeal to me.
I wanted to get there by myself to a fair price.

I've leveled up a couple of chars since then and tried out quite a lot of guides. I found out that most of them are crappy grinding guides or just filled with loads of outdated information.

On this site I give you my oppinion of the best guides I found on the internet. WoW guides that actually work and will ease your life as a World of Warcraft player.

Wrath of The Lich King Latest News

Wrath of the Lich King release is closing in and we're all eagerly awaiting it's launch.
In the meantime some of the latest news:
  • 10 Minute Wrath of the Lich King Trailer - This is a great video showing many of the zones and areas in Northrend, a must to watch for all WoW enthusiasts out there. Check it out here.

  • Arthas Last in Last Content Patch of WotLK - Even if you'll be able to meet him as soon as you reach Dragonblight (LVL 71-75), the final encounter against Arthas won't be until the last patch of the Lich King cycle. The Icecrown Citadel, will appear after launch.

  • Enchants will be Sold at the Auction House - Allowing enchanters sell their enchantments at the Auction House is still planned to be included with the launch of the expansion.

  • More Exciting New Encounter in WotLK - A raid encounter in the Nexus will let players free drakes and then fight on their back, allowing them to use their abilities. Bronze, Green, and Red drakes will be available and each one of them will have his own set of abilities. The boss fight is tuned around the abilities of the drakes and players will be able to pick any combination (e.g. 3 Green, 1 Bronze, and 4 Red). There's a boss fight that has lots of adds in it, and one of [the drakes] can apply this buff to a bunch of adds while another one can basically consume the buff and get health back from all of it and also assume a tanking role. So your tank is then healing himself based off of this debuff that another one is applying to everyone.

  • Heroic Dungeon Loot Upgraded in WotLK - Heroic dungeons weren't rewarding enough in BC, Wrath of the Lich King will change that and make players feel that Heroic instances have their own tier of loot instead of a few additions to the normal loot table. Expanding the Heroic Badge system will be a major step to achieve this.

  • All accounts with one level 55 Get One Death Knight - All players with a level 55 character will be able to create one Death Knight per realm, per account.

  • Death Knights will use Rune Powers - Death Knights aren't using Mana or Energy, the runes are their primary source of power and are slotted into their "blade," which lies underneath their health bar as a visual indicator of what resources are available to the player at any given moment.

  • Most Overpowered PvP spell realeased - Death Grip is the Death Knight's "taunt" ability. It pulls the target to the Death Knight, forcing them to attack the Death Knight for a short amount of time. Yes, I said pulls the target; Blizzard is going to allow players to move mobs in the expansion both with Death Grip, and other knockback/pull abilities.
