Horde and Alliance Leveling Guides
The meat and potatoes of this World of Warcraft Ultimate Package, the one and only Dugi Alliance and Horde leveling guides. Included in the leveling guides are a few different options. You can use the in-game add-on of the guide which most find to be the most efficient and useful.
Of course you can also use the written version which is how most guides used to be. If you want to get the full experience of leveling your Horde or Alliance toon at an accelerated rate, then using the in-game add-on is the best choice.
Also included with the speed leveling guides are class specific leveling guides. These guides include a lot of useful information especially if you are new to the class you will be leveling. Such as which talent spec will be the most useful in leveling your new toon the quickest. As well as ideas on how to spec to be efficient in low level dungeons as well as question.
These guides include a gearing up guide from 1 to 80 as well as an instance gear guide to help you decide which instances will be worth running on each class. By using these guides you can help supplement an already overpowered character especially if you are also using Bind on Account Heirloom items.
Another inclusion with the class guides is an in-game talent leveling sheet. There are preloaded talent specs that will tell you exactly at what level to put points into certain skills as you level. This is extremely helpful if you are unsure of what talents to pick up first, or if you decide to switch specs while leveling.
Ultimate Gold Farming Guide
Another addition to the complete ultimate guide package is the inclusion of Dugi’s gold farming guide. Not as much as a guide, but more so a lot of different guides for different areas of the game.
Not only can you learn farming locations and which items are worth going for, but the guide also includes power leveling guides for all professions. This can save you a lot of gold depending on which profession you may decide to power level.
No matter what level your character is you will find yourself being able to use these guides to help make your leveling process a profitable one, while also keeping yourself on the quickest path to 85 and 525 in your professions.
Seasonal Event Guide
For a lot of people the seasonal events in Wow are a lot of fun to partake in. Not only are a lot of the events fun, but they also can sometimes make you quite a bit of gold as well as gear you in some decent gear no matter your level. Dugi has gone through and created a Season Event guide for all of the seasonal events. No matter if you are trying to complete Love is in the Air or the Winter Viel festival, all of the holidays are covered.
Each guide gives you break down on just exactly what you will need to do to earn all of the achievements associated with the holiday events. The guides lay out step by step ways to complete the dailies the most efficient way possible as well as given tips and insight on how to make some gold during these events.
Being an achievement addict myself I found these guides to be one of the easiest ways to grind through a lot of the seasonal events.
In-Game Talent Build Add-on
Next up we have another great tool for those newer to World of Warcraft, or even those new to their class that want an edge up. The in game talent build add-on allows you to see step by step the best ways to spec your character as you level. A lot of times when I started a new class I always found myself needing to respec after every 10 levels or so because I just either didn’t like my talent spec or it wasn’t good enough.
With this add-on you do not have to worry about being an underpowered fire mage, or arms warrior, because you know you will be specced exactly as you should be while leveling. Remember al ot of the talent specs you find online are for raiding or PVP builds, which means they are not always the best from level to level for your class.
Professions 1 to 525 Leveling Guide
This guide is great if you are looking for a one stop area for knowing the quickest and most efficient ways to power level your professions. The best part about this guide was that it shows you the exact materials needed to level from a certain range.
Say you are getting ready to power level your blacksmithing from 150 to 300, the guide gives you a list of the required materials, giving you the option to stock up and know when you will have the exact materials ready. Leaving all the guess work out of the equation.
This takes the guess work out of when skills will become green and grey and gives you the cheapest way to take your professions to the max level without having to do a lot of trial and error yourself. Having every profession in one location also makes it great for not needing 10+ sites just to level professions on each one of your characters.
Final Verdict
From the looks of things it can not be denied this guide has a little bit of everything. From our point of view this is one of the most complete packages offered on the net today. From a personal stand point I can say that having reviewed and used a lot of the guides out today, this guide is the one I use over the others. While there are decent free leveling guides out there as well, none are as easy to use as this guide. Hopefully this review will help you to decide if Dugi’s guide is for you.
All The Best ,
