Once you get to level 10 press key 'H' and play around with the options.

Here are my Top 10 Noob Tips:


10. Fire is bad. (Every morning, repeat this to yourself at least 10 times. Hopefully by the time you get to end game content this will be ingrained into you and you will not suck quite as badly as the typical newb.)


9. Do not give out your password to ANYONE. (In case your personal life experiences have not left you as bitter/paranoid as I am, never trust your account with your little brother who has a drug habit or your psychotic off again/on again girlfriend. Both will screw you over in the end.)


8. Stay out of the Goldshire Inn. (Just trust me on this one . . .)


7. Follow the Golden Rule of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (That way, when someone gives you some grief, you feel totally justified in screwing over their instance run or beating them to that treasure chest)


6. Before hitting the level cap, learn what Gearscore is. (This will be the determining factor of your personal self worth.)


5. Do NOT buy gold from 3rd party websites. (The customer service is horrible, and no amount of in game gold is worth having to talk to someone from a foreign call center for half an hour when you do not get your purchase.)


4. Make ample time in your schedule for WoW related activities, like rated Battlegrounds and/or Raiding. (In fact, make all your free time WoW time. Work is optional anyways, especially if your mom has a cozy basement.)


3. Choose one faction and swear personal allegiance to it instead of making toons on both sides of the same server. (Remember, the other side is now your enemy and that the Geneva Conventions do not apply in WoW. Do to them as you see fit.)


2. Once you have mastered the latest end game raid or Arena/Battleground pvp it is time to move on to the true endgame of WoW: /trade chat (This is not for the faint of heart and/or people who are legally prevented from speaking to children.)


However, the first and most important tip . . .


1. HAVE FUN! (Damnit, it is YOUR 15 bucks a month and you can play HOWEVER you want to!)


(For the typical trolls, please note that this post was made in jest and that that I was not entirely serious with it. Except the part about the psychotic ex girlfriend.)

WoW has the best player control for pvp games. The game is not designed for pvp though. I'm in a constant state of frustration because I play it for pvp

Agree here. If Warhammer had the player control of WoW, and a few other changes I would probably play that for life.
