World of Warcraft Quest Guides

You know the drill. The gnome assigns you a quest to search the vast desert  wastes for some special turtle. Arg. Wouldn't it be nice to have something like a cheat sheet and save hours of time?

Thotbot to the Rescue 

So, you're looking for World of Warcraft quest guides, eh? Well you're not alone. Questing can be everything from wonderfully fun to boringly dull to downright frustrating. I expect every avid WoW player at one time or another has been at the point of explosion from some of the more ambiguous quest lines.

Perhaps the information that the one crab you need is *south* isn't very helpful, especially when the NPC is located at the top of the map. Things like that just make your day that little bit (or a lot) more annoying than it really needs to be.

Wouldn't you love to know exactly where to go and what to do if you want to find out all the information required to complete practically any quest in the game? Well, never fear, I have also dealt with quest frustration, and I am here to give you the benefit of my experience.

There are three ways to resolve quest difficulties: you can resort to the good ol' trial and error, search certain web sites, or you can purchase a good guide. On the website side, three extremely informative websites are: Thottbot.com, Allakhazam.com, and GoblinWorkshop.com.

Thottbot runs and gains information from an in-game tool called Cosmos, (one of the many WoW addons you can use to help your game.) What it does, if you install and enable it, is catalog virtually all the data you come across. It then passes that data onto Thotbot, where it's stored in a massive database.

In this way Thotbot gathers information from numerous fellow gamers about quests that have been fulfilled. In theory then, Thottbot should have almost anything in the game, though, on rare occasions I have found a quest left unfilled or missing entirely. Of course, any new quests won't be in the ThotBot database until a Cosmos enabled player runs through it.

Other Sites for Wow Questing Guides 

Next, Allakhazam.com is a very nice website, especially with the slew of features it boasts. Like Thottbot and Goblin Workshop, it possesses a handy dandy search function for finding what you need easily.

If Thottbot does not have it, Allakhazam should. Beyond that, Allakhazam has some other features such as character profiles, talent calculator, walkthroughs, forums, and all that good stuff. (I should note that I believe Thottbot has most of this as well; I simply prefer the Allakhazam version.)

Goblin Workshop is essentially the same as the other two, though it feels a little bit smaller, perhaps due to a smaller contributing user base. Anyway, if somehow both Thottbot and Allakhazam lack what you need then do give Goblin Workshop a try.

By far the easiest resource for questing players, however, is a well-written WoW guide. One written by experienced players.

In order to use the free internet resources you must already know which quest is the best for you and which one you want to do, and then you have to search for the specifics on each quest individually. If you need info on only one or a few quests that can work very well.

A good quest/leveling guide will tell you all of the quests you need to do and the proper order to complete them as quickly and efficiently as possible. This saves a lot of trouble, confusion, and wasted time.

Almost any quest dilemma can be solved using a good guide or one of the three main internet resources.

Well, there you go. Good luck in your questing!
