Leveling Guides
(12 votes)
Guides to help you level up your character on Horde and Alliance.
Leveling guides on wow-pro are mostly focused on questing. Questing is the way to go and is a lot better than grinding in every possible way, especially when you follow guides which have optimized quest circuits.

Depends on which ones you
Depends on which ones you are talking about. Jame's Death Knight guides are quite out of date, as are some of the early leveling guides. As for the more end-game guides, some of them are up to date, some are not, and some are in the process of being updated.

Hmm, again it depends on which ones you are talking about. The date the guide was written should be visible at the top of the guide. Most authors post comments or make a note in their guide when they do an update, so I'd check for that.
got hacked
I downloaded the addon and the components i needed for it to work and i got hacked. i think it was from the other addons not jame's addon. Did this happen to anibody else?

I added this to the Addon
I added this to the Addon FAQ, so you can check out the answer there. Short answer - highly unlikely, but we suggest you use anti-spyware/anti-virus software, and an authenticator if possible, to protect your account.
Guide for Daily Quest
I dont know if this exist already, if it does I couldnt find one, but it would be nice to have a guide with the location of all daily quest broken down by Alliance, Horde, Faction, Neutral, etc. I know there can be variable quest for things like Fishing and Cooking but just having the location for those quest givers would be great. If it were a stand alone addon that would be even better!
missing quest pickup
jame, addon version or your guide is F$%&ING AWESOME, THANK YOU. there is a part in the first section of the guide where im instructed to take shindrell's not to kayneth stillwind, but there is no instruction to pick up that quest on the way through astranaar, if i find anything else like this ill let you know, love your guide, thanks for taking the time to put it together!!

Horde version. Also on the
Horde version.
Also on the horde version, while I was doing the Feralas guide I noticed a quest had changed (not sure what patch). The quest "A Strange Request" apparently requires you to take the shrunken head to a guy in Feralas now.
"Witch Doctor Uzer'i in Feras"
Take the Shrunken Head to Xerash Fireblade at the Lariss pavillion in Feralas"
According to Wowhead this quest was changed in 3.2
You may wish to change it for the guide as well
Here is the wowhead link for the quest: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=3121
Thanks,

Bug or not Bug that is the question
Hi,
First up awesome guides, this my second time using them first on the addon.
I have noticed that on alot of the quests when the addon updates to say that you have aquired the quest it is automatically checking the do quest now symbol (cross swords) and the turn in quest indicator as well.
This has been happening on the STV and Hillsbrand / Arathi highlands section of the guide (32 - 34) I think.
I am not doing the quests in strict order, so didnt know if this matters or not. But didnt want to raise loads of bugs if it this.

Is this the Horde or Alliance guide? I seem to remember something like this occurring in the Horde guide, though I thought I had worked most of those bugs out.

I am having the same problem
I am having the same problem with the quest "Stranglethorn fevor". This is happening on the horde version of "Stranglethorn Vale"
I did the quest and the crossed swords part did not go away, so i tried checking it off, and it just stays checked on that quest. Looks like I'm going to have to use the website for this particular part of the guide.
Thanks,
Fleek
Side note: I disabled the addon and then re-enabled it as I was writting this and that seemed to fix the problem. Even so I figured I should still post this and let you know about the error.

does anyone have an idea if these guides are being updated for 3.2 and when? thanks

If you're talking about the
If you're talking about the addon being updated, you can find that information here. In terms of the guide content, little fixes will be made as they are found, but the "paper" guides will probably wait until Jame has time to fix them.

Hello Jamie & Friends,
After playing WOW for quite some time I finally registred myself at WOW-Pro.
Hello to Everyone.
Jamie, if I may say this....
I hope you are doing fine now in RL.
I think that others may feel the same way...that you might handle the situation at your home.
I wish you the best of all luck.
To your friends, taking care of your guides and addon....
Yeah...those guides.....I used it and I like it.
Being at the start of Zuldrak and becoming Level 78.
So..it is fun.
About your addon!
I have a question!
Can this addon of yours work together with Carbonite?
I am a hugh fan of it.
But don't take the risk to use your addon before I know there will be no trouble to suspect.
And for the rest....I hope you can keep up this great jobs of yours.
With Kind Regards,
Daroyski.
(I hope you can forgive my terrible English Grammar)

Your English was fine,
Your English was fine, thanks for registering and posting such a nice comment!
I believe the addon *should* work with Carbonite, just make sure Carbonite's waypoint arrow is disabled - otherwise they might conflict. I don't use Carbonite so I'm not sure exactly how to do this, but perhaps someone who is familiar with it can help.
Oh my ....
I went to try and load up this leveling guide on my 80 hunter, to do the Sholazar Basin quest line. When I try to find said guide on my list, it doesn't go above Howling Fjord/Borean Tundra for levels 70-72. Even the "optional" guides do not go over to Sholazar....
My alliance guides? Not a problem.... any info to help me on this problem is greatly appreciated.
Out of date add ons are loaded too....

I am assuming you are using
I am assuming you are using the default Tour Guide guides instead of our guides.
The Horde tour guide guides go up to Grizzly Hills on the newest version.
Make sure the guides you are using say "WoWPro" in the title - if they aren't, they aren't ours. Try downloading the new version as well.
Regardless, there are no guides currently available from WoWPro for Sholazar.
Oh my....
I have uninstalled and reinstalled yalls tour guide now 5x ... and it hasn't changed. The alliance one is perfect, it has guides up to IC. (optional ones too)
I KNOW I USED a guide through yalls site FOR SB for my horde toonS. Its what I used to get to the quests for the oracles there! I never got those quests UNTIL I got yalls guide add on?
I understand that directly you guys don't have an actual SB guide, however ... there WAS optional guides that DID DL with the tour guide before. How could it just...up and disappear?

Hmmm, that just sounds
Hmmm, that just sounds weird. I have no idea why it would have been working fine and then vanish. It just really sounds like you might have been using the default tour guide guides - they were previously listed at the top of the guide list, above our guides, but are now located at the bottom. Try scrolling all the way down to the bottom of the list where the default guides are.
I am sorry about this, but I do know for a fact that we have no leveling guides from Jame for those zones. As far as I know, our addon has only one guide past Grizzly Hills, and that is for Icecrown and is only on the Alliance side. I'm really sorry that this isn't working out for you, but I have never seen those guides so I have no idea how to recover them for you.
It's possible that a user on this site did write optional guides for those zones and uploaded them as a separate file, but it definitely wasn't part of the main download package from this site.
Can anyone else shine some light on this issue? I really wish I could help but I'm just not sure what guides you were originally using, and I definitely don't know why they aren't working now

Check the Works in Progress
Check the Works in Progress page, the guide exists but just hasn't been released in one of the main versions yet.
the addon
Hi there, i would like to know how on earth you reset the guides iv completed before. Iv done a little research and found that Shift+Click on the guild is ment to do it, i tried that and the '100%' goes away untill i click on it again and its back and i cant load it lol. Also, all the guides i did complete e.g. grizzly hills. Have now disappeared from the guides list altogether. Would someone please help me out i want to get back to using this great addon again! Thanks in advance.

Hmmm, if they disappeared
Hmmm, if they disappeared from the list entirely that means you may not have the addon enabled. Check to make sure "Load out of date addons" is checked in your addon selection screen.
Yes it is loaded correctly,
Yes it is loaded correctly, iv taken a screenshot to show you, now as you can see there are only Howling Fjord and Borean Tundra available and the stupid 100% just wont go away even if i Shift+Click it. Like i said it only happens on that guide (Howling Fjord).

AHA! Thank you so much for
AHA! Thank you so much for the screenshot, you have confirmed something I have been theorizing for quite a while now.
You see, some people have had this problem with the Howling Fjord guide and others, like me, have not.
The problem is with Tour Guide's default guide, NOT our WoW-Pro guide. I'm sorry to say it, but you've been using the wrong guides all along.
Check your addon screen and make sure WoW-Pro's guides are enabled. WoW-Pro's guides ALL say "WoW-Pro" and the author's name (in this case Jame) in their titles, NEVER just the zone name. The current guides are "out of date" so you need to enable out of date addons for them to work.
Hope this helps, and again thanks so much for the screenshot, the mystery is now solved!
aaah now i see lol, o dear i
aaah now i see lol, o dear i feel like an idoit! well thanks for telling me. I can now level fast again

Hah, no need to feel that way, the reason I was so excited is because now I have something to tell all the other people who have been complaining about the same thing
Leveling Guide
Hi I am a first time poster LONG time user of these guides, first of all I Would like to say that these guides work incredibly well and I would like to applaud the creators of the guides for the time consuming hard work and dedication that they have put into these guides.
I had a question though, I started the leveling guide at level 60 with three bars of rest however I am now on the level 65 part of the guide and I am halfway to level 69 and I just got done killing the giant spiders. And I have only done Ramparts once, and BF once, I also three manned setthek halls last night. Should i Finish out the guide and hit Northrend or just go to Northrend at level 70? also could it be that my shoulders give me an added 10% Experience.
Also I would like to say that last weekend i was able to get 3 levels using your guide Thanks alot!

Keep questing in Outland
Keep questing in Outland until the quests turn gray. That way you'll turn 80 pretty early in Northrend, leaving so many quests for juicy gold! You really won't regret it.

This comes up a lot. The
This comes up a lot. The reason you are so far ahead of the guide is that Blizz changed that leveling range, making it significantly easier to level 60-70 in Outland.
As to when to go to Northrend, it's really up to you. Definitely stay in Outland until level 70. At that point, if you aren't tired of the content, I would just stay in Outland until the quests/mobs before gray to you or until you finish the guide. If you are sick of Outland, though, don't torture yourself with it - just head to Northrend
Keep in mind that the longer you stay in Outland, the more Northrend quests you'll have available after you hit 80 to go towards money. Also staying in Outland helps if you want to do those questing achievements.
:D
Thanks for the replys I think im going to continue the Outland guide and finish up all the quests here and do the Northrend quests and get as much gold as i can Jeez those mounts are expensive well just to buy the expert flying training and guides for gold lol jk

What I normally did was jump to the next area. And if its a higher level than you go run a dungeon your level to catch up!
Stonetalon Mountains Guide
Okay, so I've been using the guides for awhile now, and let me just say that I absolutely love them. They have helped a great deal and have made leveling so much easier.
However, I have noticed an error in the Stonetalon leveling guide in the addon. Don't know if this is a TomTom/Tour Guide issue, or if this is something with the leveling guide itself, but when you get to the point that directs you to Ratchet, the marker (and arrow) lead you into Stonetalon Mountains, the exact opposite direction of where Ratchet actually is.
The coordinates are spot on, leaving the arrow/map marker the only issue with this specific step that I have noticed.
Just thought I'd let ya know.

That section of the guide is
That section of the guide is currently being revised, and that error will be fixed (it's due to missing zone tags). This may occur in other parts of the 20-30 guide section as well, so be aware.
Yes
Thank you, that did help I was confused. So even though its broke up like that Ex. 31-41 and it has like 4-5 places your supposed to bounce around, so this is also correct? So if it says 31-41 James Guide BadLands (44-45) so i go through at 44 and stay till 45 then go else where? Lol, sorry that i'm bugging. Thank you.

It's no bother Those
It's no bother
Those levels are *recommended* levels. Basically, if you are jumping into the guide, find one in your level range where you have not done quests yet and follow it. If you are continuing from following the paper guide, then just start wherever you left off.
Even if you get a bit ahead of the guide, this is really okay. Just stay with the guide, Tour Guide will automatically take you to the next section once you complete one. Only skip sections if you start doing gray quests or killing gray mobs (or if you really really hate a zone!).
Horde/Ally guide
I downloaded everything i needed and its working but one thing is weird. I'm in game and open the guide to select a guide and theres like 15-20 James Guides I got like 4-6 that says 31-41 but then next to the name it says ( 31-32) and next one says 32-33 but it still says James Guide 31-41. Does this mean its still 31-41 but i only stay there for 31-32? If that IS so, how come the screen shot of james in game guide is different? He has 4-6 James x-x Guide. Mine has like 15? Why is this? And i downloaded everything off this site. Can anyone help me figure out why all these circuits are broke up like this and not orginized like james screen shot on how to install the guide? Ty.

I'm assuming the screenshot
I'm assuming the screenshot is just old. The guides you describe are how it's supposed to be. Jame's guide had to be broken into smaller sections so that it wouldn't take forever to load and so that it could be organized by zone. It also makes it much easier to jump in part-way through.
Hope this helps.
