New to the site, or back after a long break from Azeroth? This page is a short route through the notes, in the order that tends to help most.

Step one: get your character raid-ready

Start with the raid guide, which explains difficulties, roles and how to read a boss fight. Then read How to Prepare for Your First WoW Raid for the practical checklist that goes with it.

Step two: learn how the economy moves

Gold is easier to handle when you know where it goes. The gold notes cover repair budgets, selling spare materials and a few farming habits, and A Beginner’s Guide to WoW’s Auction House and Trading walks through the Auction House screen by screen.

Step three: pick a class and stay with it for a while

The archive has write-ups for healers, warlocks, monks and more. If you lead a group, How to Be a Successful Raid Leader is a good companion for your first nights in charge.

Step four: wander

Not every evening has to be about progress. Posts on Stormwind, Pandaria and Argus are there for the evenings when you simply want a good view and a story.
