Re: Some good suggestions, but ... Questhelper? Really? Macharius Send a noteboard - 15/07/2010 05:20:42 PM
Would a new player know or care about unit frames? I tried running with customized unit frames for a bit, and while they were pretty and positionable, they broke after a patch and then I just went back to the default, which does the job just fine for me. Raids seem to be the only place where the default unit frames tend to fall down on the job a little. The default is fine for five-mans.


I found the default frames too small to be useful when the UI scale is minimized. And if he doesn't like it, he can delete it as you did.

The lag bar can be handy for a mage once you get the hang of the gameplay and want to squeeze more speed out of your spells, for sure. You can do this without the lag bar, of course -- just start your next spell when the current spell is about 80% through its cast -- but a lag bar will show you more precisely.


I like having the regular-sized target casting bar available.

Yeah, if you can find people in-game who will answer questions without being idiots about it, those people are worth their weight in gold. There's a lot to learn when you're new.


With RealID, he could add friends that are already playing. Heck, I sent him my email so he could add me if he wanted to. Certainly a lot better than asking randomly in a town.

Add-Ons are actually common and not a bannable offense (depending on their nature). TaskmasterJack - 15/07/2010 02:11:03 AM 837 Views

Can't decided if I like or hate questhelper Roland00 - 15/07/2010 08:34:19 PM 774 Views
Others have given good advice. also: LadyLorraine - 15/07/2010 07:18:18 PM 786 Views
Depends on the kind of player you are, I think. Aemon - 15/07/2010 09:07:11 PM 806 Views

Mining is a good Profession to pick up to make money on the side. TaskmasterJack - 18/07/2010 06:25:35 PM 777 Views
Currently my professions are tailoring and enchanting Roland00 - 19/07/2010 12:25:28 AM 741 Views
The problem with leveling enchanting is that its a money sink, so you'll be poor a lot. TaskmasterJack - 19/07/2010 12:55:49 AM 800 Views
Well eventually I may have a second character Roland00 - 19/07/2010 01:21:46 AM 756 Views

Thanks for the explanation Roland00 - 19/07/2010 12:27:04 AM 744 Views
You're worrying too much, and min-maxing too much. And a lot of this advice is very, very bad. lord-of-shadow - 18/07/2010 07:03:43 PM 842 Views
Agreed for everything except the add-ons. Aemon - 18/07/2010 08:35:45 PM 766 Views
lord-of-shadow makes some good points. TaskmasterJack - 18/07/2010 11:47:36 PM 814 Views
To min max is my nature Roland00 - 19/07/2010 12:33:00 AM 788 Views
Of course. I don't mean to imply that min-maxing it inherently bad or not fun. lord-of-shadow - 19/07/2010 04:31:18 PM 765 Views
I think if he felt it was necessary to follow the spec... LadyLorraine - 19/07/2010 10:49:28 PM 753 Views
I agree with whoever said to ignore levelling guides Deadsy - 12/08/2010 11:07:45 PM 905 Views
