Mage Guide

Introduction:
A long time ago, Mages lived only in Dalaran. But after the Burning
Leagion's attack, magic spread all along the Eastern Kingdoms and
Kalimdor. A Mage controls Frost, Fire and Arcane magic. His ability
to sheep oponents makes him a must-have when beating more than 1
oponent. Besides that, Mages can conjure water and food. They can
also teleport to major cities at lvl 20 (30 for capitals with less
majority-Darnassus,Thunder Bluff) and make portals at lvl 40 (50 for
DS and TB).

Available races:

1. Alliance:
   Human
   Gnome
   
2. Horde:
   Troll
   Undead
   

Armor and weapons:

1. Armor-Cloth
   
2. Weapons-Staves,Wands,Daggers,One-handed swords
   

Primary and secondary
attributes:

1. Primary-Intellect
   
2. Secondary-Stamina;Spirt
   

As int is your primary attribute, you should get as much int as
possible from items. The clothes (by animal types) you should wear
are Eagle and Owl. Both give int and a secondary attribute. Also,you
should be aiming for at least 6000 mana at lvl 60, so the more
intellect you get, the better (At lvl 57, we got ~5800 mana/~2000 hp
without buffs). Other type of armor you need is items, which give
+dmg. The more the better. For example if you have to decide
between +12 int or +11 int+10dmg with spells, you should get the
+11int+10dmg with spells one. Actually, 1 int=~25 mana, which is not
a lot but can be priceless when oom against Ragnaros, let's say.

Suitable professions:

1. Tailoring/Enchanting
   
2. Herbalism/Alchemy
   

Soloing:
When soloing, questing is the better choice for Mages. We are no good
grinders for sure. After nearly every battle, Mages need to
drink/eat. In order to avoid this for at least two or three breaks,
you need a lot of int gear. Fire Mages do really nice amounts of
daMage but the control,which frost offers is priceless. My personal
opinion, that is. There is a really nice trick, which you can do with
Ice Barrier+Frost Nova+Blizzard+Cone of Cold. But you need to be lvl
40 in order to get the barrier, which absorbs daMage. Cast it, then
aggro the group of mobs and after you colected all, frost nova all
and go around 20 yards from them. Blizzard them. If you have the
improved blizzard talent, then they will nearly be move-less. That's
when you cone of cold them. With the right talents, you will crit all
of them. If they are not dead, frost nova them again and blizzard
again. My personal record with that is 20 skeletons in Sorrow Hill,
WP(50-52) at lvl 52.

Grouping:
In instances, Mages are a must-have in most of the seups. As a
caster-type class,you should always be at a good range away from the
mobs having the tanks get hit. Remember,!!!MAGES SHOULD NEVER BE
TOUCHED!!!. Your job is to deal daMage. Don't bother about the
tanks or the healers. Concentrate on nuking. Most of times, you'll
die from two hits from boss mobs and that's not good. A dead dmg
dealer deals the same dmg a healer deals. If you get aggro, don't run
away. Best way to get aggro off is the Ice Block spell but it's a
talent-only spell (frost). Other option is not to get aggro at
all-BoS, Taunt. Also,when you're away from the mobs, the group is
attacking, try not to go too far and get out of range or accidentally
pull ads.

Talents:
The three possible trees for Mages are arcane/fire/frost. For fast
grinding mobs 1 by 1, we suggest a fire or fire/arcane
build:
Fire(there are only 48 talent points in fire
but you'll probably respec at lvl 60,so it doesn't matter where
you'll put the other points)
Fire/Arcane(21/30/0)

Another possibility is AoE grinding. For this type, the best Mage
is the fire/frost Mage:
Fire/Frost(0/21/30)

For PVP you should use a frost/arcane build as your survivability
will increase significantly with it.

When you start doing MC and BWL, even BRD, you'll need to respec
as the the mobs there are immune to fire (only the elementals are
immune in BRD). We recommend the build we use:
Frost/Arcane(18/0/33)

Class quests:
You can see all the Mage-only quests and everything about them here.
We advise you to do the first quest. Get the staff from it - Ley
Staff (Human,Undead) / Arcane Staff (Gnome,Troll), as you won't find
a better one till you finish Deadmines.

Also,Tabetha's quests
- a wand and a staff/orb (the staff is better) + she'll give you a
Zul'Farrak, Scarlet Monastery and Uldaman quest. The quest in
ST/Temple of Atal'Hakkar is boring (the pre-quests anyway) and the
prices are not worth it. Better skip the quests we didn't mention.
Especially, the pristine spider's silk quest. Try to get the
Arcanist's Cookbook at lvl 54.The quest is in DM and will give
you a trinket which gives you +10 fire res and decent dmg with spells
and healing (^^) increase.

When you are on the Ratchet boat, heading from ratchet to BB, right before it goes into the loading screen at the end of the echo isles there is a delay. If you jump at the right time, it takes a few tries, you will fall and fall and fall(be sure to bring a slow fall potion or 2) onto a white mountian marked as WPL, you have to bring 2 accounts to do this as it is a trade bug. One person trades and the receiver logs off right after trade, and you still have your money.

— Start Fishing FAQ —

This guide covers the Fishing profession that is now a secondary skill. Which means that you can have this skill in addition to your two primary skills. I suggest getting this skill as it can be a nice way to pass time and make a lot of cash as a newbie. Whether this skill is truely usefull at high levels is under debate. There are however some pretty high price catches as well as different trade recipes and locked chests containing materials for almost all the trades.

You can check the WoW site for additional info:

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/professions/

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/professions/fishing.html

For searches on specific fishing areas and drop information you can check out either of these. Although I suggest Thottbot because it is linked to the Cosmos software that is availible in the downloads section. I believe a newer version is availible now at www.cosmosui.com

http://www.thottbot.com/
http://wow.allakhazam.com/

Where are the fishing skill trainers?

They are generally near bodies of water. Your best bet is to simply ask a guard. Guards can provide a LOT of good info as well as marks on your map to where they are.


What are the different levels/ranks in the professions?

Rank (Min - Max Skills) (Req Skill)

Apprentice (1-75) (0)

Journeyman (50-150) (50)

Expert (125-225) (125)

Artisan (200-300) (200)


Why is my skill no longer gaining?

1. You have reached the highest skill points for your Rank. Go train to the next rank.

2. You need to move to higher level area to fish.

No-one teaches Expert Fishing?!? How do I get it?

You need to buy the Expert Fishing - The Bass and You from the Old Man Heming in Stranglethorn Vale (Booty Bay).

No-one teaches Artisan Fishing?!? How do I get it?

You learn Artisan level of a Profession by completing a quest given by Wigcik in Stranglethorn Vale (Booty Bay).


What are some zones I can fish in and what fish do they have?
For more indepth information to these zones I suggest using the thottbot link above. They provide near exact percentages on the drop rates as well as what rares are dropped.

Tapping is to hit a monster once or twice. Basically, this is used in reference to a low level character 'tapping' a high level monster and then having a high level character kill it. In previous builds of WoW, the first player to 'tap' the monster would get the experience points. This has been changed and now it is % based on the amount of damage you inflict.

there goes all the easy exp xP

The demons in northeast Azshara are not only a great place to grind in your late 40's'/early 50's, but are also a gold mine for 60's. Each mob is between level 50-53, drops a decent amount of silver, and very frequently drop runecloth and even felcloth. After about 15 minutes of grinding them I had about a stack of runecloth and 2 felcloth.

—————————————-
[3] Builds

The main thing people get wrong as Rouges are the builds; they either copy someone elses * its not that bad, but still * or randomly select points. First time Rogue especially have htis problem, well heres some thing to fix this.

===========================
How to use this build: ^ the one above

First is to always open up with a cheap shot or ambush ( I use ambush ) then start pounding away with SS then when at 3 - 5 Pts ( Depends on your HP and Targets HP ) use Evi, then repeat. If you reach 50% HP its best you use Vanish then Cheap Shot, then SS till target has max Pts on him/her then if Evi isnt rdy by now use Prep then Cold Blood to hopefully finish the target. Using this build requires the true rogue or a sneeking player if your non of tht by all means don't use this build lol, you'll just get Murdered like a Decked out Rogue vs the Holy Priest.

Level 46: 5 damage increase
Level 58: 7 damage increase
==========================
How to use this build: ^ the one above

Do NOT use SS, because it is a waste of energy in this build, use Hemorrhage to open up atks, its required hat you use either Rupture or Evi, the battle conditions will tell you wat to do, if you open up with Garrote its best you use Evi when at 3-5 Pts on the Enemy, but if you use Cheap Shot ( NO Ambush ) its best you use Rupture then start hacking/slashing away with Hemorr and Evi. Also in this build since you do less Instant/Burst Dmg its best you use Swords, no Maces because since the patch up Blizzard has reduced the ammount of Dmg Maces do with Rogues. Using Swords with Strength and Agilty are the key ( No Stamina, your gear can do that ) because you want to hit hard while doing DoT.

[6] Professions

+ Mining

This is a grreat money maker for a Rogue and I highly recommend it at low lvls so you can save up for a mount, if you do this for farming mats its best you pair it w/ Skinning, Blacksmithing is practicly useless with Rogues because Rogues don't use Mail or Plate, and the weapons that are made arn't benifical for a Rogue.

+ Herbalism

A good partner with Alchemy, though not much of a money maker by itself w/ Alchemy its a money maker AND it can benifit the Rogue as well.

+ Skinning

This is a very good money making Profession, mixed with Mining, you'll be the god of making money when it comes to Professions, Leatherworking is good for lvls 5 - 40, but at higher lvls it becomes a pain and becomes useless to a Rogue. Skinning is good for Farming w/ Mining.

When I made this I was looking for a bunch of very nice to have Formula's that I didn't want to buy. So i set out to farm/collect/etc the ones I could and here is the locations.

When deciding what to add to the list, it was either; 1. A 300 skill that is a must have for end game rading, 2. Very rare drop hard to find/expensive, 3. Vendored in singles sometimes can be missed/or not known about.

If I missed any you feel should be on here it may be because I already have it, and feel free to add it in and I will edit it for the future.

   Intellect, Frost Oil, Greater Mana Potion, Magic Resistance Potion
   and Superior Healing Potion)
   Found in:

   Arathi Highlands, around trees in bushes. A nice place for me to
   farm it was at the Whitebark Troll camp southeast of Arathi
   Highlands.

Artisan Herbs

1. Firebloom
   [205] - (used for Goblin Rocket Fuel, Oil of Immolation
   and Philosopher's Stone)
   Found in: Badlands and
   Tanaris are nice places for this flower, it grows all over hot,
   dusty, dry areas.
   
2. Wildvine
   [-] - (used for Wildvine Potion)
   Found in:
   Ok this herb does not have its own plant, though you can find it
   sometimes on Purple Lotus plants. Else you get this plant as a drop
   from Troll mobs. Best places to hunt for it are in Stranglethorn
   Vale (Skullsplitter Trolls) and in The Hinterlands (Whitebark
   Trolls).
   
3. Purple
   Lotus [210] - (used for Dreamless Sleep Potion,
   Elixir or Dream Vision, Magic Resistance Potion, Philosopher's Stone
   and Wildvine Potion)
   Found in: Stranglethorn
   Vale and Tanaris are good places to find this herb. It grow mostly
   around stone-ruins. Also there is some Purple Lotus in the Badlands,
   one right outside of Uldaman and one at a fallen column surrounded
   by lesser rock elementals, west of Lotwil Veriatus.
   
4. Sungrass
   [230] - (used for Elixir of Giants, Elixir of Greater
   Agility, Elixir of Superior Defense, Invisibility Potion, Superior
   Healing Potion and Mana Potion)
   Found in: Best
   place for this plant is Hinterlands I find. Grows all over
   grass-area and is hard to see, you will have to move around your
   mousepointer to find it. Feralas is a good place too.
   
5. Blindweed
   [235] - (used for Arcane Elixir, Elixir of Greater
   Intellect, Gift of Arthas, Limited Invulnerability Potion and
   Superior Mana Potion)
   Found in: Swamp of
   Sorrows all the way. You can find this herb here in large
   quantities, grows around water at the edges.
   
6. Ghost
   Mushroom [245] - (used for Elixir of
   Demonslaying, Elixir of Shadow Power, Ghost Dye, Invisibility Potion
   and Limited Invulnerability Potion)
   Found in:
   You will very rarely find a Ghost Mushroom plant, a few of them grow in the Hinterlands in the north east before crossing the river in a
   cave, also Maraudon has some. I got this herb mostly from hunting
   monsters. They drop from Elemental type of mobs like Thistleshrub
   Drew Collectors in Tanaris or Tar Lords/Bloodpetal Thresters/Tar
   Creepers in Un'Goro Crater. Some Ghost Mushrooms can be found in east DM as well.
   
7. Gromsblood
   [250] - (used for Elixir of Brute Force, Elixir of
   Demonslaying, Elixir of Detect Demon, Elixir of Giants and Mighty
   Rage Potion)
   Found in: Very important herb for
   Mighty Rage Potions for Warriors. You can get this herb best in
   Desolace around the Demon mobs in the area with the dark/rotten
   soil.
   
8. Artha's
   Tears [245] - (used for Elixir of Detect Undead
   and Gift of Arthas)
   Found in: Best Place for
   this is Felwood + Eastern/Western Plaguelands. Grows all around the
   zone, is a rare plant though. Can also be found Razorfen Downs on
   the Spiral of Thorns
   
9. Golden
   Sansam [260] - (used for Major Healing
   Potion)
   Found in: I found this plant mostly in
   Un'Goro Crater. While running around at the edge of the zone, you
   can find Golden Sansam (along with Mountain Silversage for Major
   Healing Potions), in shadowy places next to trees and generally in
   grass.
   
10. Dreamfoil
    [270] - (used for Elixir of the Sages, Flask of Distilled
    Wisdom, Greater Arcane Protection Potion, Greater Fire Protection
    Potion, Greater Frost Protection Potion, Greater Shadow Protection
    Potion and Major Mana Potion)
    Found in: Two nice places for this plant are definately Un'Goro Crater and Azshara, in both places you can run around on your horse/kodo all over the whole zone, you will find not only Dreamfoil but most of the high level herbs you need. Also Azshara seems one of the zones less trafficked, so you will most likely find more Dreamfoil there than in Un'Goro crater, but Un'Goro is still the best place.
    Dreamfoil grows all over the zone in grass.
    
11. Mountain
    Silversage [280] - (used for Elixir of
    Mongoose, Flask of Chromatic Resistance, Major Healing Potion)Found
    in: Extremely important and largely used herb (crit potion for rogues and major healing potions), best place to search for it is Un'Goro Crater imo. Run along the edge of the zone as the plant
    grows on the highest possible (climbable) mountains.
    
12. Plaguebloom
    [285] - (used for Elixir of Brute Force, Mongoose Potion,
    Elixir of the Sages and Purification Potion)
    Found in:
    Best and easiest place for this is Eastern Plaguelands. Grows all
    over the zone, mostly in the south-east corner though.
    
13. Icecap
    [290] - (used for Flask of Chromatic Resistance, Flask of
    Distilled Wisdom, Major Mana Potion and Purification Potion)
    Found
    in: All over Winterspring.
    
14. Black Lotus [300]
    - (used for Flask of Chromatic Resistance, and Flask of Distilled
    Wisdom)
    Found in: Ok this is the rarest plant
    ever, places it has been picked up so far are Eastern Plaguelands, Winterspring and Burning Steppes. Another good spot for this herb is the arena in Dire Maul, (you need a group for this) depending on if a rare named is up there spawn 2 Black Lotuses in the arena and can be harvested, you need to kill the named though which takes about a full group. Black Lotus can also be found in Alterac Valley and Silithus.

Stance-Dancers are warriors that use the best out of the 3 stances. You might want to use the stancedancer for doing dps and tanking at the same time.
If you think I should make some changes let me know, this my first guide. I will be making an updated version for Burning Crusade later on.

Arms

5/5 Deflection
To help with blocking

5/5 Improved Rend
Adds some dps

3/3 Deep Wounds
Adds more dps

2/2 Impale
Increases critical strike damage for all skills in all stances

5/5 Tactical Mastery
Will help you keep rage as you change stances

1/1 Anger Management
Helps you keep your rage longer

2/2 Improved Overpower
50% increased critical strike chance for Overpower will help in the battle a lot

2/2 Improved Charge
to get extra rage
1/1 Sweeping Strikes
get extra damage to multiple mobs

1/1 Mortal Strike
deals a ton of damage and halves healing done to target

And the rest you can choose.

Fury

5/5 Cruelty
more critical strikes will be nice

Protection

5/5 Shield Spec. or 5/5 Anticipation
gives rage when you block and helps you block increasing defense skill

5/5 Toughness
10% more armor from items will help

5/5 Defiance
threat generated by your attacks will be increased by 15% in defensive stance. that will help a lot in groups
