Do You Want To Level Faster Like The Pros?

If you are having trouble leveling or need to level faster in WoW Cataclysm I highly suggest you check out Zygor’s Leveling Guide. It has the perfect leveling path that gets you to 85 faster and easier than any other way. No matter what level you are, you load the guide and it points with an arrow to the direction of each monster, quest giver, trainer etc. Its pretty crazy. It also has an in game box that tells you exactly what to do, like kill 5 boars, run west 10 miles, etc. If you dont have this in game add on guide, honestly, you are missing out. You can find out more here or check out the Zygor Cataclysm Leveling Guide Review.

Stats

Intellect:
Intellect provides 1 spellpower and 0.006% to crit per point. With Mark of the Wild, Heart of the Wild, and Astral Leather Specialization, it provides 1.169 spellpower and 0.0070% crit (142 points per 1% crit, a bit under 1/3 of a crit rating).
Similarly, with these talents, one point of Intellect increases your maximum mana by 17.53, and your regen from Replenishment, Euphoria, and Innervate correspondingly.
These things together make Int the best stat for both DPS and mana.

Spellpower:
Intellect, without the talent bonuses, crit bonus, or mana gains. Basically a weaker form of Intellect that only appears on weapons, but is still good.

Hit rating/Spirit:
26.23 hit rating gives 1% to hit with spells. If you are under hit cap (see below), hit is a solid DPS stat. Beyond the cap, additional hit rating adds nothing and is wasted. With Balance of Power, 1 Spirit and 1 hit rating are identical for gear selection purposes.

Haste rating:
32.79 haste rating gives 1% spell haste. Again a solid DPS stat. Once you’re at the hit cap, haste will be your best secondary (i.e. non-Int) stat.

Critical strike rating:
45.9 crit rating gives 1% to crit. With Moonfury and a Chaotic Skyflare Diamond, crits with most of our our main spells do 2.09 times the damage of non crits. Because crit gives a lower rating conversion than haste, and we no longer have a meaningful haste cap, crit is substantially weaker than haste.

Mastery rating:
45.9 mastery rating adds 1.5% to our Eclipse bonus. Because only about half our spells are cast during Eclipse, this makes it even weaker than crit rating, and our worst secondary stat.

Reforging

Always pick an Intellect item over anything else.  For reforging purposes these are the stats you want in order of importance.

1) Spirit (technically better than Hit since it can occasionally give you mana).
2) Hit rating (until cap).
3) Haste rating.
4) Crit rating.
5) Mastery rating.

Gems

In general, gem [Brilliant Cardinal Ruby] in red sockets, [Purified Dreadstone] (if under the hit cap) in blue sockets, and [Reckless Ametrine] in yellow sockets. Exception: if the socket bonus is something other than spellpower or Int, ignore it and put Brilliant in all sockets. (At level 85: no color-matching–Brilliant in all items).

Use one [Nightmare Tear] in a blue or yellow socket, and make sure you also have at least one [Purified Dreadstone] somewhere to meet your meta requirement.

In your meta socket (only use hats with meta sockets), use [Chaotic Skyflare Diamond].

Skill Rotation

• Start by applying Moonfire and Insect Swarm, and casting Starsurge. Whenever either DoT falls off the target, or Starsurge comes off cooldown, recast it.
• Cast Starfire until until a Solar (Wrath) Eclipse procs, then switch to Wrath. Cast Wrath until a Lunar (Starfire) Eclipse procs, then switch back to Starfire.
• Repeat this Eclipse cycle, always keeping your two DoT’s on the target and using Starsurge, Starfall and Force of Nature on cooldown.

Starfall – Rank 1/1
You summon a flurry of stars from the sky on all targets within 40 yards of the caster, each dealing 369 to 427 Arcane damage. Maximum 20 stars. Lasts 10 sec.

Shapeshifting into an animal form or mounting cancels the effect. Any effect which causes you to lose control of your character will suppress the starfall effect.

Here are Some Sample Builds for each Hunter Tree.  If you want to level up your Hunter faster you MUST check this out.

WotLK Beast Mastery Builds

The beast mastery tree will offer your hunter probably the best dps build in the game.  This will help in raids and solo leveling as in a raid not only will your pet be tanking, you will be able to afflict a huge amount of damage as well.  Not as much as a rogue or mage, but enough to make a significant difference.  If you are looking for the fastest solo leveling build, the Beast Mastery Tree is the way to go as well.  Remember, with WotLK came new talents and new builds, so these builds will be getting fine tuned as we learn more about WoW WotLK.

• 52/19 Beast Master Build
  
• 53/18/0 Beast Master Build - This build requires Glyph of Steady Shot

WotLK Marksmanship Build

Marksmanship is considered the best pvp tree for a hunter.  It also just depends on how you want to play your hunter because you can also pve with marksmanship.  Your strength will come with burst damage.  Your shots will be slower than Beast master but your hits will be a lot bigger.  This tree also offers very good specific pvp skills.

• Marksmanship Raiding Build
• Marksmanship PVP Build

WotLK Hunter Survival Builds

Probably one of the least played hunter builds, the survival tree offers some very fun aspects of the game.  Your survival tree will offer good party buffs and skills which is very good for partys or raiding.  This is especially good if there are other hunters in your raids, your group will thank you, trust me.

• Noobie Raiding Survival Build
• High End Raiding Build
• Solo and Raiding Build

If you want to add your own build add a comment with it or send it to webmaster@wrathsecrets.com

If you are having trouble leveling your Hunter I highly suggest you check out Zygor’s Leveling Guide because it has a perfect Hunter leveling path that gets you to 80 faster and easier than any other way.  No matter what level you are, you load the thing and it points with an arrow the direction to each monster, quest giver, trainer etc.  Its pretty crazy.  It also has an in game box that tells you exactly what to do, like kill 5 boars, run west 10 miles, etc.  You can find out more here or check out the review.

The Unholy tree is usually used for PvP play but can also be built for leveling, although probably not the fastest, you still dish out great dps so you can always jump into pvp here and there.  I would pretty much call this a PVE guide.  You pretty much want to disease your target with plague strike and icy touch.. Then finish it off with scourge strike a few times.  UseBlood Strike to convert blood runes to death runes for more scourge strikes.  Remember to keep unholy blight refreshed and use Death Coil for remaining runic power.  Your glyph of scourge strike will keep your procs up, but if not use Plague Strike+Ice touch if you lack procs.

Remember to summon your gargoyle during bloodlust, this way you summon a more powerful gargoyle.  Try finding a mirror of truth trinket as well which helps.

This guide as of now will get your Death Knight to 80 and ready for WoW Cataclysm.  When Cataclysm is released, check back here for the latest 1-85 Death Knight Cataclysm guide.  If your actual leveling times are slow, I highly suggest you check out the top WoW Cataclysm Leveling Guide.

Warlock Level Guide

Welcome Warlocks!  To the 1-80 Leveling spec talent tree guide for heavy Affliction Talent build with a little Destruction added in there as well.  This build is good for PVP as it has high dps, but very good for PVE as it is high in mana conservation…   We use drain life over shadow bolt as it conserves way more mana, this accounts for higher dps output the longer a fight goes.  We also put full talent points into Eradication and Death’s Embrace for added DPS.  Also remember to try to drink and eat as little as possible over time as this slows down leveling times.  You can play your Warlock how you want, but try to experiment spell combos that allow you to kill and move on to the next monster with as little down time as possible.

• If you are looking for a leveling guide, check out our Leveling Guide Review
• If you are looking for the top gold making guide: Check out our Review Here.
• Check out our other free guides

—————————————————————————————————————————–

The Spell combo you want to use is:   Haunt –> Siphon Life –> CoA/CoE –> Corruption –> Unstable –> Haunt again –> Immolate. Drain life until you get Nightfall and then repeat. Keep unstable, Corruption, and CoA cast at all times, as they are your top daWarlock dealers, along with Haunt.  Experiment with your own paying style to increase killing over time.

Here is the Level by Level Talent Guide for your Warlock: If you want to level up your Warlock Faster you MUST check out this guide.

Gnome Mage

Once you hit around the mid 20′s, frost aoe mages can be deadly.  With talents such as improved blizzard, shhater and finally completing the base frost aoe build at level 40:  Ice Barrier.  Here is a base frost build that will take you to level 61, after that you can do what you want with it because after around level 40, you pretty much have all the skills necessary to aoe 8-10 melee mobs no problem.  The following is which skills to get and when and how to perform the aoe spell combo.  If you are having trouble leveling your mage you MUST check this leveling guide out.

• If you are looking for the top gold making guide: Check out our Review Here.

———————————————————————————————————————–

Build Information, tips and more:

• This build is built for aoe in mind and pretty much just that.  There are only two points in improved frostbolt as this is not going to help your aoe out at all.  If you feel you need to do single targeting or are having trouble with pvp maybe go with 5 points.  Two points works just fine for me though especially once you get the range increase with arctic reach
• I wouldnt try to AOE until you have your three points in Improve Blizzard.  What I personally do is go fire until around level 23 and then respec.
• The reason for some fire talents is the World in Flames and Burning Determination.  Immunity is great when silenced and the critical strike increase with w.i.f to blizzard is huge.  I would get those spells after ice barrier.  (The increased bonus’s to fire blast help huge in those 1v1 or pvp moments too.)
• You want to be grinding on melee characters.  If you have ranged or spell casters they will interupt your blizzard.

How to Perform the AoE

• Ice Barrier  (If you dont have ice barrier yet just use your frost shields)

• Mount

• Grab about 8-10 mobs depending on how comforatble you are with the aoe.  Start with around 4 and build your way up.

• Ice block, that way they will bunch around you while you are invulnerable.

• Frost Nova (Traps them in place)

• Blink

• Blizzard

• Blizzard  (They should be dead by now) But if not….

• Cone of Cold

• Frost Nova

• Blink

• Blizzard

• Arcane Explosion anyone still alive

The Build A link to the build can be found here.

Druids are one of the most versatile characters in World of WarCraft wotlk due to their different druid forms, and are also among the most restricted as well; with all Alliance druids being night elves while the Horde druids are only Tauren. Despite their differences, both the Tauren and night elves have the same shapeshifting abilities, but have several different racial abilities as well.  If you are having trouble leveling your druid or want to level your druid as fast as possible you must check out Zygor’s Leveling Guide or check out the review.

Shapeshifting Abilities

To adapt to different situations on the battlefield, wotlk druids can transform into 8 different form for a total of 9 forms including his natural form – the caster form.

Caster Form

In the beginning stages of the game, you’ll be using the druid like your typical spellcaster. As you develop this form, you’ll find it to be highly useful in defeating your enemies from long range and healing comrades. They are also able to cast a variety of debuff spells against their enemies.

Bear Form

Transforming to the bear form gains armor, health, and attack bonuses so it’s a good transformation to work on for players that like warrior class characters. With its high power, they make good targets in attracting hordes of monsters and dishing out heavy damage while taking abuse. All of the bear’s abilities use a rage bar instead of mana. Higher level druids can transform to dire bears which look similar, but are more powerful.

Cat Form

Those who want to play like the rogue can transform to the cat form which gains a higher melee attack bonus than the bear form. It has the ability to stealth like the rogues to conceal themselves from monsters and other players and uses an energy bar for abilities.

Aquatic Form

This form solely allows the druid to swim faster than any other character In the game and breathe underwater as well. No additional abilities are granted in this form.

Tree of Life Form

This form makes the druid move a bit slower, but adds regenerative healing to party members within range. Healing abilities that are casted in this form also cost less mana.

Travel Form

Transform to the travel form whenever you are in the need for speed because this form grants a 40% run speed bonus. However, no additional abilities are gained from this form and it may only be used outdoors.

Flight Form

This form transforms the druid into a crow greatly increasing the movement speed to that of a flying mount. When you’re riding skill is 300 and your level is 70, you can use the swift flight form to match the speed of an epic flying mount.

Moonkin Form

This form increases the critical chance of spells casted by allies and only allows balance spells to be casted.

Changes For Druid in Wrath of the Lich King

A newer feral ability – Savage Roar has been added for level 75 druids which acts as a finishing move that increases attack power. When the druid reaches level 80, he can learn a powerful healing spell – nourish that restores even more life when under the rejuvenation, regrowth, or lifeblood effects. Druids can also revive dead targets at level 12. Various other changes include new talents and other balance changes.

The power of the druid requires on your playing style giving you plenty of different builds to mold your druid from.

The new expansion to World of WarCraft – Wrath of the Lich King is finally here and offers more in-depth play with a slew of exciting new features and new areas to explore. Not only are there tons of great additions and balance changes, but some characters have undergone transformations like the Shamans. These changes were necessary to increase the appeal of shamans, as they were one of the least played characters amongst World of WarCraft players.

Shamans have gone through changes from expansion to expansion and this time, a number of changes have affected its character statistics and some of its abilities.

WotLK Shaman Changes

For the fastest way to level up a shaman check out this guide or you can read the review here.  Attack power can now be increased as both Strength and Agility statistics increase. The critical and spell critical ratings have been merged into a single stat. This merge has been applied to hit rating and spell ratings too.

New WotLK Shaman Abilities

The Shaman has been granted several new abilities with the launch of Wrath of the Lich King.

The first ability is a skill that was used previously by Shadow Hunters in WarCraft III – Hex. The hex spell can turn their targets into frogs rendering them helpless and only able to move. Even if the target is damaged after transformation, the spell may not break so only restoration spells can cure it.

The two other spells are elemental spells – the Lava Burst and Wind Shock. The Lava Burst spell does some massive fire damage while causing some major slowdown to the target. The Wind Shock spell doesn’t do any damage, but lowers the chances of enemies to attack you as well as interrupting any spell casting attempts.

Regarding weapon enchantments, one new enchantment was added and an existing one has slightly changed. The new Earthliving Weapon is useful for shaman healers as they add a significant passive bonus to all the healing spells as well as give the healing spell a chance to heal over time. The healing bonus and heal over time effect increases as the rank goes up. The existing flametongue weapon gets an upgrade of its own and now gives a spell damage bonus to the Shaman. There were also changes to the Windfury Totem, which Is now no longer a weapon enchant and has become a buff that grants melee haste.

New WotLK Shaman Talents

Over 20 new talents for the Shaman were introduced in all 3 talent tiers. Here’s a summarized list of them all:

• Elemental Oath
• Astral Shift
• Lava Flows
• Storm, Earth, and Fire
• Thunderstorm
• Improved Shields
• Mental Dexterity
• Improved Stormstrike
• Lava Lash
• Static Shock
• Earthen Power
• Maelstrom Weapon
• Feral Spirit
• Improved Water Shield
• Tidal Force
• Cleanse Spirit
• Blessing of the Eternals
• Ancestral Awakening
• Improved Earth Shield
• Tidal Waves
• Riptide

These improvements to the WotLK Shaman talents and abilities make them a lot more useful allies and dangerous opponents. This opens up a lot of possibilities in allowing new talent builds to form and turn the tides of battle.

Death Knight Info

Death Knights have been around since WarCraft II and now finally make an appearance in World of WarCraft. The WotLK Death Knight can be created for any race as long as they have a character that is at least level 55 in the realm. Once created, they start out at level 55 and come equipped with a full set of gear and complete with a barrage of skills and abilities.

Just like any class, you will guide the Death Knight through a series of quests before joining all the other players in the realm. They will start out at the Eastern Plaguelands and then going more than 30 quests as the Death Knights slowly learn their place in the world.

Death Knights are generally hybrid melee class characters that are a bit similar to Warriors. They can duel-wield weapons or optionally have two-handed sword weapons instead for some serious melee combat. They can also wear plate armor which is good for tanking and parrying without any need for shields. The death coil ability makes a comeback with the same functions as the ones in previous games – damaging foes and healing undead allies.

Instead of using mana, energy, or rage, Death Knights make use of a unique rune system for them to cast spells and abilities. The three types of runes are Blood, Frost, and Unholy. There is an additional fourth type of rune which serves as a wildcard and may pose as a Blood, Frost, or Unholy rune.  Blood Runes are primarily for melee and self-healing abilities. Frost also enhances melee abilities particularly the ones that focus on single targets. Unholy Runes are for the disease spells and allow Death Knights to summon ghouls and gargoyles.

All death knights have a pair of runes for each type with a total of 6 all in all. The various skills consume different types of runes and result to a 10 second cooldown before the rune can be used again for casting the same or other spells. Death Runes may take place of the used runes depending on what skill is used. As skills are being casted, the Death Knight’s Runic Power bar fills up which in return greatly increases the effectiveness of certain abilities like Death Coil.

Not only the Death Knight is the first hero unit to grace World of WarCraft, but it comes with an entirely new system that will get players really interested. Death Knights are great combat fighters and can pose a serious threat to anyone willing to PvP against them.

If you are having trouble leveling your Death Knight I highly suggest you check out Zygor’s Leveling Guide because it has a perfect death knight leveling path that gets you to 80 faster and easier than any other way.  No matter what level you are, you load the thing and it points with an arrow the direction to each monster, quest giver, trainer etc.  Its pretty crazy.  It also has an in game box that tells you exactly what to do, like kill 5 boars, run west 10 miles, etc.  You can find out more here or check out the review.
