Most frequent question for newbie players should be raiding, and what is needed in order to be prepared to raid. This is what we gonna discuss. Firstly and the most important of course is gear. Players beginning to raid should have fewer than three green-quality items, and the rest should be blue-quality or above. These can be attained through dungeons. Players should start with normal-mode instances, and then working up to heroic mode. The final bosses in Heroic dungeons all drop at least one epic-quality item, and all bosses drop one Badge of Justice. Badges of Justice obtained from heroic mode instances can be saved up and used to buy significantly better gear than what you would normally find in 5-man instances. Since most instances have between three to five bosses and in combination with a daily quest in Shattrath City that awards two additional badges for completion of the day's instance (chosen at random), it's possible to obtain seven badges from a single run. So when running heroic instances daily, one can assemble a good set of armor within two weeks. Secondly is the consumables, there are five types of consumables available for raiding - item enhancement, food, flasks/elixirs, potions and bandages. Item enhancement consumables are things such as mana oils and sharpening stones. Determining which one is most desirable for you depends on the class you play. Food, can be gained through Cooking. Everyone can learn this as a side-skill, and given how beneficial food buffs are at level 70, every player should have it maxed out at 375. Elixirs come in two varieties: Battle and Guardian. Battle elixirs enhance your offensive stats, such as: attack power, spell damage, critical strike and agility or strength. Guardian elixirs enhance defensive stats such as: armor, stamina or intellect and spirit. You can only have one of each type of elixir active on you at a time. Elixirs last one hour and you lose them when you die. Potions give a short-term benefit and have a two-minute cooldown. The most commonly used type of potions are mana potions and healing potions, which provide an immediate recovery of either mana or health. The last should be bondages for first aid, is a skill that players can be a life-saver. For obtaining everything needed for a raid, you must do one of two things - gather all the needed materials yourself or buy them from another player. Most players buy their materials from the auction house. The best way to farm gold in a hurry is to complete the daily quests for the various level 70 factions. Of course, if you would like to buy gold for WOW, we have the competitive price for you.
