WoW Forever Guides
Guides for World of Warcraft: Forever, built on its own data rather than Classic’s: what has changed, every class, the new races and racials, the Legacy system, camping, rulesets and addons, professions, and the new dungeons with every quest, reward and drop. They’re written during the beta and kept up to date as the game changes, through launch and after.
