World of Warcraft is a gateway MMO that has brought all sorts of new blood into the industry. It’s considered easy to play, easy to level up, and has many features that are directed towards helping the newbie experience be as addicting and contagious as possible. But even WoW has its fair share of research that is required in order to be really “good” at your class. Take for example, stats. The game doesn’t really tell you what stats your class should be going for. They did add tooltips over the different attributes that at least tell you what each stat does for you, but how does a leveling feral druid know that they should be going for agility/sta/str? How do they know that 1 strength = 2 attack power for druids, but only 1 atk power for rogues? How about that agility raises ranged attack power for some classes and melee attack power for others? As far as I’m aware – that’s information you have to look up to find out.
