Tips
Here’s how to enjoy the guides as much as possible, even if you don’t have a 2nd monitor, you can either:
1. Print the guides. There is a “Printer Friendly Version” link at the bottom of every guide, you just have to click on it. However, that might be expansive (and probably expensive), because the guides are big, very big. Another downside is that my guides are updated very frequently, so if you print it you’ll miss the latest updates.
2. Playing WOW in Windowed Mode feels very comfortable while following along with this guide.
- Keep the guide opened in an internet window
- Log in to World of Warcraft, press Escape and go to Video Options, tick the following boxes:
Click on “Apply“.
Your screen will look exactly as if you were playing wow in full screen mode, besides you will be able to ALT-TAB to the guide INSTANTLY.
This is how I play wow while following my guide, when I don’t feel like booting up my 2nd computer ๐
3. If you don’t like any of those options, then you should definitely try our in-game addon version of our leveling guides. Simply click the link below:

Becoming a part of WoW-Pro
Question– Your guides really helped me out and I want to return the favor, what can I do to help?
Answer– Here’s how you can contribute:
1. Most important and easiest way to help: Spread the word. Tell people about our guides. Your friends, guildmates, boards you visit. Tell them that they are FREE and that they make you level much faster than other guides or questhelper.
2. When you try our guides, if you find any mistakes, leave a comment.
3. Post useful comments here. When people ask for advices and you know the answer, go for it and help them out. The goal of this community is to make this website the best place to find information and help about wow.
4. And then of course, you can write a guide about an area of the game where you’re good. Check my Guide writing guide before you start, it should cover most points ๐
5. You can also translate guides into other languages, if you are fluent in another laguage. Check our Guides in Other Languages section to see what has already been translated.
6. If you’re rich in RL, feel free to donate!
Some pre-cata guides actuallySome pre-cata guides actually did have indexes, while others did not. It was mostly up to the author.If you have problems getting back to where you left off, it is not really that hard if you consider a few things. Some guides cover a specific zone and you can therefore by checking which quests you have in your quest log, easily find out where you are in the guide by using ctrl+f in your web-browser and writing the quest name. If guides consist of several zones, they are usually split into several sections. In these cases, you can check which zone you are in and then scroll down to the section covering that zone at the level you are at (assuming you’re not ahead nor behind of the guide). The trick of using ctrl+f and searching for quests also apply in these guides.It should not be that hard finding out where you left off if you analyze the situation your toon is in and make simple assumptions based on that. Now, good luck leveling those abandoned alts! ๐
Besides the fact that, asBesides the fact that, as several users have pointed out, we DO cover EVERY zone in the game… this post is ludicrous. NO ONE donated a beta key, by the way – the only keys we got were directly from Blizzard and from the addons sites where our addon was hosted. People did donate lots of time and effort writing guides on the beta, though, and for that I am very grateful.What I’m NOT grateful for, what I’m getting quite sick and tired of, are people getting high and mighty with feelings of entitlement when what we have working on these guides is a team of VOLUNTEERS.So if you are dissatisfied with what we have produced, rather than gripe and complain, CONTRIBUTE! Time, money, whatever seems easiest to you – even a *helpful* comment here and there, these all help!And if you can’t be bothered to read the notes on the Curse/WoW Interface page… AND in the in game addon.. explaining WHY the guides aren’t there and WHERE you can get them and that they are still FREE… and you don’t bother to stop by our chat room specifically there for people who are confused… well I guess you are rather beyond help!Sorry for the mini-rant, back to finishing my studying for finals… *grumble grumble*….
I lol’d.I lol’d.
I’m going to assume you gotI’m going to assume you got the addon via Curse. So I would like to draw your attention to what is wrritten on the Curse page for WoW-Pro Addon: IMPORTANT – THE VERSION ON CURSE.COM DOES NOT HAVE ALL THE GUIDES!All the guides are available. You have to download from this site. The download link is right under the video on the addon page… So please do a little reading before you jump down throats. And yes, I am being nice.
dissapointmentOkey. I made an account here just to say how dissapointed I am. You guy make a post about the fact that you will have a 1-85 guide ready by the time that cataclysm launches. People need to send you guys there beta keys, you need people to help, it seemed like a big undertaking and I was really looking forward to the idea of starting my worgen journey with James guide. But what turns out? The only thing we get is some guides for the starting zones… Nothing from 20 up to 60… and from 80 to 84. The whole thing not even being one complete package but guides written by all kinds of people in different styles.Is this why people neede to donate beta-keys? To help you guys out? To help test, to work on the add-on? You guys posted a news item in which you said everything was coming along nicely but that, apparently, was just to keep us going in circles.Don’t get me wrong. The fact that I’m so dissapointed is because I leveled a lot of toons with the original Jame’s guide 1-60. I loved it. But I can’t help to notice you guys are slacking atm and this site really has lost a lot of it’s former glory.I hope this is gonna change soon tho.Good luck.Ryan
IndexingI think the guides you have are really great. I leveled my (then) main pally up by myself in Northrend, and deciding I wanted to get my mage up to 80 as well, I used your guide. I saw more of the game and its content with your guide than just questing by myself.That comes to my suggestion. I’d really rather not print out the whole guide and waste the paper, but it sometimes its difficult to get back on and find your place in the guide from where you left off. You kind of have to guess where you rememeber you were and what quests you have. Is there anyway to index the whole guide, just down the left margin (or somewhere)? That way you could just write down one index number and instantly jump to the appropriate spot and pick up where you left off. Thanks very much.
Very sorry for theVery sorry for the confusion!People are writing guides faster than I can get updates in!There will be an update tonight for the addon, but make sure to get it here on WoW-Pro – otherwise you won’t get all the new guides, as we will be releasing them more slowly to Curse and WoW Interface.
afaik there are more guidesafaik there are more guides done, but not yet added in the latest release.Jiyambi will add them asap. ๐
From what I remember, the newFrom what I remember, the new guides haven’t been put in just yet. Think the last release or two were bug fixes.
WowPro Leveling Guides not showing upHi guys,
I downloaded what I think is the latest version of the addon (2.03) and installed it, but it is only showing a handful of guides for the new Cataclysm-era content. All I can see in the list are the starting area guides, then it goes up to the DK guides, Outlands and Northrend.
I looked on the page that had the addon with the recorder, but it looked like that was actually an older version than 2.03, so I wasn’t sure it would help.
Today I can’t even access the addon-specific pages on the site, so I don’t know what to do. The info on your site seems to indicate that there are a lot more guides available than are showing up in-game in my addon, but I can’t figure out why. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Steps are indeed numberedSteps are indeed numbered within the addon, in a way. If you enable the title-bar, you’ll see a step count up next to the zone name.
Yeah. If you want, you canYeah. If you want, you can also post bugs wherever here on WoWPro and I’ll post on github. Thanks!
Last 2 guides…Hey Jame and friends, 2 years ago i got server first 80 on my deathknight due to your amazing guides.
dont know why…
But im going to shoot for server first 85… was curious if you will have the last 2 guides for 80-85 out by xpac?
they really are a dream come true, and the fastest way to level. Let me know whenever you get a chance.
Thx
-Jear
Ok, I just saw the link toOk, I just saw the link to Github.
BugsHi guys,
Can you create an easy place to log bugs?
I came across a few steps that didn’t close automatically, but was not sure where to notify you. E.g. https://www.wow-pro.com/bugs?
I also have a suggestion: To make it easier, please number the quests in the add-on. So if I find a bug I can report it like: “Westfall step 10 got wrong coordinates. Should be x, y” or “Westfall step 10 doesn’t close automatically”.
This should make it easier for the reporter and the person fixing it.
Keep up the good work with the guides!! Cannot imagine myself without the add-on.
Thanks,
From what I can tell; NoFrom what I can tell; No major changes are needed for Duskwallow Marsh (A) – Remove some of the way points for navigation (as a bridge leads right across to theremor) remove cortello’s riddle quest info and it SHOULD be pretty much up to date.
Wow! Excellent! Nice work!Wow! Excellent! Nice work!
Southern Barrens – AllianceHere is the recorder info for Southern Barrens.
Please note the first two quests + cookie crumb from Stonetallon is not included due to an error (Jiyambi is aware of this as we were conversing as I was making this)
Also For the Silithid Quest, I conducted this out side of the Horde town instead of alliance; due to tiredness and being a hordie usually.
It needs a play through and a polish as well as notes; but was very very quick.

It’s not necessary atIt’s not necessary at all.
Even if less experience is needed to level up, it just means that some quests will be green a little earlier in the WotLK zones, but they will still give full XP while being easier to do.
In any case, if you don’t like doing green quests, you can just skip a zone entirely and go to the next, that should do it ๐

GuidesVery Good Guides you have there!
The paper guides will notThe paper guides will not likely be altered.
The addon guides will be updated (when we get to it – the new content has priority right now) so that you can change a setting and skip un-important quests. All of the quests will remain in the addon, however, for those seeking lore-master achievements – they just need to use a higher completion setting ๐
Less experience needed to level up from 71-80 in patch 4.0.3aAs it was announced here: http://blue.mmo-champion.com/topic/134406/403a-what-is-in-it-what-is-not
Experience required to gain levels 71 through 80 is being reduced by 20%.
So I believe that now many of the 71-80 guides’ steps could be removed since less experience is needed to level up.
gotchaNo problemo! Will grab it and run it while doing it.. Only a few quests into Uldum so far so I’ll try to record the rest ๐
It was an issue in theIt was an issue in the website update, it’s fixed now. Thanks for letting us know!
Cataclysm Leveling Guides 1-85Sorry but I can’t find the link to see the guide in itself ?? Help ๐
Access deniedI get that msg every page I go to now. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the new website or something else.
Thanks
If you’d like, you canIf you’d like, you can download our Cataclysm package and the guide recorder addon from this guide page: https://www.wow-pro.com/guide_writing/using_wowpro_recorder
I’ll be uploading a new package there this weekend with about twice as many Cata guides in it.
Basically, each zone you start create a new guide and hit record. It will automatically record your progress. You can then post the recording here, and it will help us get a start on the guide for that zone! ๐ The guide I linked above explains how to do this in more detail.
However, if that’s too much work, just letting us know of any bugs or mistakes you find is awesome too ๐
Great Addon, great guidesI’ve really appreciated all the work you guys have done. I am currently playing my way through the beta (leveling my main to 85 to get a feel for the fastest way to do it (hoping for server first Mage on Burning Blade). If there’s anything I can do to help along the way please let me know. I’ll be running the addon as I go and will report any issues I come across as well.
Not every step needs notes,Not every step needs notes, or even mapcords for that matter. To better explain here’s a chunk from the gnome starter guide:
T Get Me Explosives Back! |QID|26285| |M|33.12,48.70| |N|To Jessup McCree|
T Missing in Action |QID|26284|
A Finishin’ the Job |QID|26318|
R Enter the cave here |NC| |QID|26318| |M|31.98,49.20| |N|Enter the cave and run through it keeping to the left as you go| |C|Mage,Priest,Rogue,Warrior|
R Enter the cave here |NC| |QID|26318| |M|31.98,49.20| |N|Dismiss your Imp, then enter the cave and run through it keeping to the left as you go| |C|Warlock|
K Boss Bruggor |QID|26318| |M|29.12,49.61| |T|Boss Bruggor| |QO|Boss Bruggor slain: 1/1|
C Blow up the tunnel |NC| |QID|26318| |M|29.11,48.50| |QO|Detonate trogg tunnel: 1/1|
T Finishin’ the Job |QID|26318| |M|33.12,48.70| |N|To Jessup McCree| |C|Mage,Priest,Rogue,Warrior|
T Finishin’ the Job |QID|26318| |M|33.12,48.70| |N|To Jessup McCree, and resummon your Imp| |C|Warlock|
The 2nd & 3rd lines I feel don’t need either notes or cords as your already standing at the quest giver. The 2 “R” steps next help the user with where to go once they get in the cave, and in the case of Warlocks help them not to pull sleeping mobs they can just walk past (noisy Imp = aggromagnet). The “K” step a note is not needed as it would only convey the same information as the |QO| tag, eg the kill the named mob, same with the “C” step that follows it. Final 2 “T” steps, separated because Warlock can now safely resummon their Imp, and the note is a reminder to do so, as well as giving the normal npc name to whom we’ve returned to turn the quest into type note.
Use notes however you feel is needed to help make your guide clearer to use, or that with something the end user might not know about a quest (especially if they’re like me and don’t read questlog text! :P)
C Dwarven Artifacts |NC||S| |QID|24477| |N|Scattered on the ground, they look like little piles of snow| |QO|Forgotten Dwarven Artifact: 5/5|
This is a good example to show this, as without the note the user might be looking for some little statues or relics of some kind, not little piles of snow (about the size of a snowball) in an area covered in snow.
Step notesShould every step pretty much have a note? I was thinking when I go through the first time I would just quest the zone and get it done asap, then go back and test a second time but take my time a bit so that I can look for things that would be noteworthy. But my main question is whether or not each step should have a note.
The best way to help is byThe best way to help is by recording your questing! This is assuming you are playing in the beta.
Here’s a guide on how to do this: [url=https://www.wow-pro.com/guide_writing/using_wowpro_recorder]Using the WoW-Pro Recorder[/url]
Thanks for the interest!
Interest is Great!I am interested in Guide Writer, Guide Tester, Addon Tester
Daily player with a lot of time to offer.
Addon testHi iam ready for addon test.
i have beta ๐
Cataclysm Addon UpdateHi folks! I’ve updated the Cataclysm recorder package to include the most recent exploits of both Bitsem and myself. You can download it [url=http://github.com/downloads/Jiyambi/WoW-Pro-Guides/WoWPro%20Cataclysm%20v1.7.0.1.zip]here[/url].
If you have recorded files, send em in! I’ll try to update this package every time a new guide section is completed. Thanks for all the hard work!
Here’s the current downloadHere’s the current download link for the Cataclysm addon, along with the guide recorder: [url]http://github.com/downloads/Jiyambi/WoW-Pro-Guides/WoWPro%20Cataclysm.zip[/url]
Check out the [url=https://www.wow-pro.com/guide_writing/using_wowpro_recorder]Using the WoWPro Recorder[/url] guide for how to record your Cataclysm questing, it can be a big help for zones we don’t yet have guides for!
Addon TesterI m ready for addon test 8)
Ready for testingHi,
I am ready to be both guide tester and addon tester
beta keyim up for testing addons and guides ๐
Bitsem – don’t worry aboutBitsem – don’t worry about git. It’s a big pain in the butt to learn, and if you are just working with guide files, you don’t really need to learn it.
Where to record – really, anywhere right now! Seriously, whatever’s more enjoyable for you.
Other things you can do – well, it would be *REALLY* useful to, when you are done recording, go through the code the recorder spits out and spiff it up. What it barfs out is pretty plain, and sometimes not quite correct.
I will make a guide on this over the weekend, I promise! ๐
Thanks for helping out ๐
Recorder needs?Are there certain areas where we need recorder info more than others? I’ll probably continue with my troll unless I hear otherwise.
I’m willing to try coding or guide writing, but I’m not sure what’s most needed there, and have pretty much no experience with either one and none with git. ๐
I may waste less of everyone’s time by just running the recorder. Lol. Please let me know where I can be the most helpful. So nice to see so many great guides coming out! Amazing work, as usual. ๐
TrollingLolololololololololol!
Thanks for my giggle of the day! ๐
Things I never thought I’d say…
“Don’t stretch your brother’s face like that!”
“Pointed sticks are NOT toys, regular sticks are fine.”
I tested a troll guideI tested a troll guide once… it didn’t make me very popular in Trade chat though ๐
*boom boom cha*
One liner of the day, bought to you by “Waiting for Youtube to process my dang video!”
tester sign upI will start a new char today and want to use the opportunity to test guides in the meantime while leveling up. Will be horde char.
I just post this comment so I know what have to be done. How and what to note use my results why testing are useful here.

Troll guideThink I’ll try to test the Troll guide tomorrow. I want to see the Cat Form anyway! Will definitely use the recorder if I can figure it out! ๐ lol.

Thanks!
I actuallyThanks!
I actually discovered this myself. I tried using the Curse client to install the Recorder. For some reason Curse installed it in all three of my WoW installs: Live, Beta, and PTR.
I found that, while the Recorder still didn’t work in the Beta, it was now appearing in my Live install! The Live install had the WoW-Pro addon installed, but the Beta didn’t. So the missing dependency had to be the WoW-Pro addon.
I’ve installed the WoW-Pro addon in my Beta install, so now I should be good to go.
Thanks again for these great guides! I can’t wait to try the Cata versions in-game.
