World of Warcraft Gold Guide

World of Warcraft has been one of the most popular searches in this site so I am gathering that all you Warcraft fans out there wouldn mind seeing more heree at welikegames! I am going to do my best to get all of the warcraft resources up at this site as possible so please check back but for now take a look at this gold guide I found!

Author: Ruibo Chen

Having enough Gold in World of Warcraft is one of the most important aspects of the game. Gold has a major effect on your game play. Gold of course has their common known usage in a mmorpg game which is used to buy and sell items from vendors and other players. In world of Warcraft, gold can be used for training. To learn new skills you are required to pay the trainer a fee. Alot of gold would be required to perfect your character. Here are some tips to help you farm World of Warcraft Gold.

Grabbing a profession early in the game can most definitely have its advantage. You are able to level up your profession easily and gain its benefits. 2 professions we highly suggest starting with is mining and skinning. As you kill animals and other creatures in World of Warcraft you can easily skin the animals and sell them to vendors or other players with a nice load sum of profit. You are also leveling your profession as well. While you're out leveling your character I'm sure you will kill a numerous amount of mobs that you can skin. The mining profession is another great profession. You will oftenly run into caves which may have some very prosperious mineral ores. Some minerals are very popular in the game and are highly demanded.

Questing in World of Warcraft is unlike any other MMORPG released. Quests are one of the biggest advantages you can have in the game. While you're out leveling grab a quest each time you get. Only takes a matter of seconds. Not only will you receive EXP from killing the mobs in the quest but you will also gain additional EXP from completing the quest along with some nice items and money. A great bonus added to help players level faster and get richer of course.

Gears in World of Warcraft can get quite expensive. Alot more expensive than just training. From levels 1-40 I highly suggest not investing any money on buying gears or items. Low level characters are not too gear dependent. The quests should be able to provide you just about everything you need. Save the extra gold you have for higher level gears.

Certain types of mobs tend to have better drops than others. From what we've noticed so far, humanoids tend to drop more gold and items than any other creature in the game. So while you're out leveling away, try to kill as many humanoids as you can.

A. Formations
It’s pretty much common sense to come up with a good formation for your army but the basic idea in most situations is to have your infantry in front, ranged units behind, cavalry protecting the flanks and your general right behind the infantry. Having the general next to your infantry boosts their morale. If you have larger numbers than the enemy, it’s usually a good idea to spread your formation so you can surround the enemy.

B. Flanks and Rear
The flanks and rear of any army are its most vulnerable points. By placing cavalry on the side you can help protect your flanks. When facing an enemy, always try to attack its flanks or rear with your army, especially your cavalry. A cavalry charge to the rear can devastate any unit and lower its morale. When facing an army unit such as Greek hoplite phalanx, you must use the slow speed of the enemy to your advantage to flank the opponent. The Phalanx is particularly vulnerable anywhere except the front. One tactic that seems to work is to slowly flank the enemy is to form your troops in a slight half circle so you can slowly surround your enemy. Never let your infantry become isolated, try to keep them in formation in a line so they dont feel like they are being surrounded.

C. Morale
The morale of your troops is the most important aspect of a battle. If your troops are surrounded they will lose morale and try to escape in a rout. Try to prevent this and use this to your advantage by surrounding troops whenever possible. Showering arrows on the enemy army lowers its morale Also, launching a surprise attack on an unprotected side has the same effect. Having enemy generals near your troops lowers their morale slightly, this is also true of your general and enemy troops. Keep in mind that more experienced troops have higher morale. New troops will most likely rout if your general flees.

All units on the battlefield know who is winning the battle by observing their surroundings. If they see any unit or a general fleeing, they are more likely to flee. Use this to your advantage; if you have a unit surrounded and they are routing, let them flee rather than let them fight their hardest to get out of their situation. Once other enemy units have seen them, mow them down with your cavalry to show the other army who is the boss.

D. Unit strengths
Each of the different unit types is vulnerable to another type. Cavalry is vulnerable to frontal spear attacks. Light Infantry is vulnerable to cavalry and Heavy infantry is also vulnerable to side attacks from cavalry but is effective in hand to hand combat. Artillery is good offensively against almost any unit but is extremely weak defensively and dies quickly after a head on attack.

Elephants are a great unit against infantry and lower the morale of enemy troops. They can be supressed by a large number of ranged units and scare tactics such as incendiary pigs. Your Elephants may also turn and attack your own troops in which case you have the option of using the special ability where your rider executes them.

Archers are very effective against light troops and mounted archers are a good way to harass enemy troops. Always keep archers them away from the infantry and cavalry. Put them behind your infantry when the enemy is close and protect them with your cavalrywhen necessary. If you have the opportunity to flank the enemy using archers,make sure you take off skirmish mode and attack, you will catch the enemy off guard. When the enemy is far away put the archers in the front to shoot arrows as the enemy approaches then bring them behind.

E. Fatigue
Your units will slowly or quickly get fatigued based on their actions. Use this to your advantage by forcing attacking armies to march to you and by running only when necessary.

F. Terrain
Use the terrain to your advantage. When fighting near or in a forest, lure the enemy and launch surprise attacks. Place one or two units out in the open while you hide the rest of your army in the forests. However, remember that archers perform poorly near trees. Also, remember that generals are not hidden in forests. When you are fighting on a map with a slope, try to control the higher ground and avoid an uphill battle. Units move very slowly when marching uphill and attack much less effectively; the opposite is true downhill. If you have the option to wait out the battle and the weather doesn’t suit your army, wait until the weather changes. Some units are better suited to certain weather condtions than others. Read unit descriptions to find out more details about each units ideal figting conditions. Some terrain such as mountains is impassible to your armies. Try to find an alternate route. Certain choke points such as bridges are important strategic locations. Defending a bridge is much easier than defending on an open plain. You can also hide your whole army on the campaign map in a wooded area to launch surprise attacks on an enemy army.

G. After they flee
When the enemy starts to flee, continue the battle rather than end it so you can use your cavalry and attack dogs to run over the fleeing enemies. You can gain more experience for your units this way. Using your general's cavalry to run over routing units is a quick way to gain experience and skills for the general.

H. Attacking with multiple armies
Whenever possible, try to attack with multiple armies by surrounding the terrain around the enemy with your forces. When one of your armies is adjacent, the AI is in control of the army and helps in the fight. Any type of reinforcement usually helps win the battle but be wary of the AI poorly managing your valuable Generals and armies.

How to Copy a DVD to PSP

Just got my psp a few days ago and so far so good. One of the most asked questions I found was this one. So I did some research, and here is a cool article I found!

Author: Travis Sago

Have you figured out how to copy a dvd to your PSP? Many folks know it can be done but are confused on how to do it. I know I really struggled at first.

I am going to give you my quick and easy recipe to copy any DVD to PSP. There are only a few steps and it is a cinch on you know how.

First like any recipe...You have your ingredients:

512 MB Pro Duo Stick (This is what holds your movie files)

DVD Player installed in your computer

DVD Ripper (Software that pulls the movie from the DVD to your computer)

PSP Video Converter (Software that converts movie and video files to MP4 format that you watch on your PSP.) (Note: There is software that has both the DVD Ripper and Converter combined)

USB Cable

1. Load your DVD and fire up your DVD ripper select the movie or video you want to put on your PSP and hit the "extract" or "rip" button. Tell it where you want to save the file to.

2. If you already have movie and/or video files on your pc then all you need to do is hit "add" from your DVD ripper and tell it where you want to save the file to.

3. Select the file that you saved to your computer and hit the "extract and/or encode" button and save that file.

3. If you have DVD Ripper/PSP Video converter combo software...You can combine steps 1,2 and 3.

At this point you have the files on your PC...and they are in the correct format.

4. How to download or transfer your new mp4 file to PSP? Just connect your PSP with your PC with the USB cable, and Create a folder on your Memory Stick called "MP_ROOT." and create a sub-folder called "100MNV01." under it. Copy your MP4 files to this location (no need to copy the .HTM files).

5. Now on your PSP go to video and memory stick and watch your movie!

Orrery Download for Oblivion!

I downloaded the new mission for oblivion tonight and beat it in about 30 minutes. I think the experience was good but, not worth 200 points to purchase. Bethesda should have given this download away for free in my opinion. The adventure starts out with a letter you have received form the caretaker of the Orrery in the imperial city. Some bandits have stolen the parts to make the Orrery work. Who do they call to fix that problem? You guessed it.

You start out to the north of Kvatch. The first camp,” Camp Ales" you square off against a Bandit carrier and a Bandit Hedge Wizard. They were pretty easy to beat. Just block and counter and the fight will be over quickly. My character is level 12 and the bandit carrier seemed to dispense all the good stuff. She drops a Mace of Dissolution and that about it. There are four more of these camps, Camp Varus, Camp Bodean, Camp Dagay, and Camp Brotch. All of these are about the same, kill the bandits and get the stolen part from the bandit carrier. On the way to Camp Dagay I notice a small lake with a skeleton and a chest, no real treasure just thought it was kind neat, also pick a nirnroot at that lake. One other note, careful when kill the bandits in the grass some items tend to disappear in the tall grass.

Once you have completed that part of the quest, return the parts to the imperial city. Once the Orrery is active (which is the coolest part of the whole side adventure), you will be reward with the Masser's Grace Spell (Fortify Agility 20 pts for 60 secs, Drain Endurance 20 pts for 60 secs, cast once a day. Thanks for reading.

How to defeat lord Kazzak easily outdoor raid boss!

I have had alot of good responses with some of the warcraft content so here are some free guids I picked up from World of Warcraft Gold Free Guides

When you first enter the instance, enter through the right door (not the left). This throws you in the center of the courtyard clear of most mobs. This first spot where you enter is where you are going to pull to.

Big tree mobs will be patrolling by. They hit very very hard. You want to pull them to the corner as they knock you back -- better to hit the wall than pull another big guy. You need to take out 2-3 big guys. Don't bother trying to clear them all.. the repop pretty regular.

After clearing a hole to run across, run to the center of the courtyard, being careful to not pull any of the mobs there or be close enough to pool the big tree patrols. If you are brave, you can clear none of the pats and just run straight to the center.

Now you are in the middle of the courtyard, near the pylon with the elementals. These pylons are the objective of the instance... clear the elementals and the 5 pylons power down, releasing the forcefield around Immol'thar.

The elementals can be pulled 2-3 at a time to clear all around the pylon. Warlock can banish one as necessary. As these guys die, they steal whatever mana you have and inflict damage... be careful! They also get very cast happy the more health they lose. They must be killed as quickly as possible.

Now continue running across the courtyard to far right. This will lead you down a narrow walkway and open to a room of undead on your right. Your goal is to get up the stairs. Kill the farthest right ghost mob, hitting the female ghost first. She inflicts the most dmg via a "bone" something or other aura... it is a melee hardhitting aura. Cloth/Leather wearers should try to stay back from these ghosts as they inflict crazy dmg.

This next part is up to you. You can keep clearing the first floor and clear the caster bosses (Magister Kalendris and Tsu'zee) for drops. I don't have much experience with these two, so I won't offer up any advice. I recall them hitting casters pretty hard for 900hp or so.

If you don't clear the bottom floor, clear the right-most mob of 3 and sneak past the one ghost by the stairs. Proceed upstairs and you want to head left. You will find a couple casters standing there... nothing special and pretty easy to clear. Continue clearing/running along the left wall towards the pylon (2nd one). Clear the elementals as before, deactivating the pylon. Now you see a bunch of skeletons. Have the tank aggro and AoE away.

Now go right down the bridge/walkway to the quest giver, Shen'dralar Ancient. He gives you "Madness Within", the quest for killing Immol, the Prince and the deactivating pylons. Continue past him to the next pylon (#3), clear as necessary until it deactivates.

You should now see the next boss, Illyanna Ravenoak just past the pylon, patrolling. She hits very hard via ranged hunter attacks. The bear swipes for 500-800dmg per swing. Sleep/Polymorph/(??Fear??) the bear as necessary while you take her out. She has far range and hits hard... casters be careful of aggro or you will die.

Now run back the way you came to downstairs out by the first courtyard. In the middle (same side as the ghosts) is a downward slope to Tendris Warpwood. He is fairly easy... just slightly harder than the big trees in the beginning.

Go past him and enter the door just to your right using your Crescent Key. Watch for invis ghost mobs down this hall. Proceed until you see the arcane/storm elementals. I recommend clearing one mob but it is up to you. They hit very very hard. Warlock should curse of doom/banish the big guy... his arcane storm cast will wipe your group in just a few seconds. Kill the little guys first (9K hp or so). Then solo big guy.

If you decide to not clear one group, have hunter give you aspect of pack. Run left along the wall until you come to the 4th pylon. Just before the pylon is a stone pillar by the wall... anywhere between this pillar and the pylon/elementals is your safe zone. You are now clear of all storm elementals. Clear the pylon as before.

Now run back the way you came to the hallway. When it is clear, continue running right to the second hallway. You are safe for a while. Proceed along through the library. Talk to whoever you like. Quest endings for the Warlock/Druid/etc books are here... all the quests say "Return to the rightful owner" and give you a nice trinket. They are random DM drop quests. You will also find a NPC to repair/sell items. The prince is in here, but currently neutral. He turns nasty after you clear the last pylon and kill Immol'thar.

Run back to where the arcane/storm elementals are. Now you want to keep running right along the wall to the next pylon. Stay between the pillar and pylon, pulling the elementals til you clear the last and 5th pylon. Now the shield around Immol'thar drops. Run through the pylon to the center of the area, watching for the passing patrols running from your right to left. Don't worry about aggroing Immol as you have plenty of room in the arena.

Immol is very very tough. He has approx 35K hp or so and hits very very hard for 500-800hp. Casters be very wary of aggro, cause you don't want him hitting you. Every few seconds a eyeball will drop. These eyeballs focus on you and throw you up in the air, taking damage when you smack the ground hard. One person in group should be dedicated to killing these eyeballs (900hp or so). As you are fighting him and people in your group die, it is imperative to keep moving around. The eyes are less likely to focus on you. A few times I have been the last one standing... Immol had 10K of hp and about 5 eyeballs chasing me. I just kept running in a big circle and casting away at him til he dropped... this strategy will by you an extra 20-30
secs before you die. He will hit you but you can use potions, to keep blasting him.

Now run back to the Prince in the library, clearing as necessary. Main tank should stand in the corner with the other players grouped close by. The tank gets knocked back into the wall, and with the other players closeby he should be able to regain aggro fairly easily.

NOTE: If you are a warlock getting your epic mount, do the following after killing Immol'thar. Read all of this information before starting...

You need approx 14-16 soul shards. The 3 floating items that are part of the ceremony offer up different buffs. You must use your Lodestone to reactivate them when they are clickable (right click when you see the widget/gear). Have other party members help you keep an eye out saying "candle", "bell", "clock" to let you know when they go out.

During the ceremony, all party members must stay within the circle to be benefited by the circle buffs. J'eevee's Jar starts the ceremony. You should have a imp demon out at this point. This lets everyone in your group start out with extra stamina. You will start seeing a bunch of demon imps running to the center. They hit you for 1hp or so... not a big deal. This keeps happening with the occasional doomguard entering. At some point you want to ditch the imp and enslave one of the doomguards. Always kill doomguards first as the imps hit for little to no damage. The ceremony continues for 5 mins or so (seems like forever) and climaxes with about 4 doomguards at once. If you have a doomguard enslaved, release him and he will
disappear (no need to kill).

Everyone in the group should enjoy the trippy blue colors whirling around you AND rest up. No need to hurry... rest completely and take your time. Now you want to summon the Lord and the dreadsteed using your Xorothian Glyphs. After some time of fighting the DreadSteed, a Dreadlord spawns. Continue killing the Steed and then finish the Dreadlord. You only need to kill the steed to complete your quest. If you think you might die, run over and talk to the steed's spirit to get your new horsey. If you wipe before doing so, ghost run it back and talk to the horse spirit for quest completion.
