Perenolde believed that a Horde victory was inevitable, and thus offered aid to the Horde by stirring up rebellions, attacking Alliance bases, and giving them supplies. When this treachery was discovered, the Alliance marched on Alterac and destroyed it. Perenolde and any nobles who went along with his plans were stripped of their titles and land. Many of the nobility managed to escape, however, and began plotting their revenge. Using their still sizable fortunes, the nobility hired a band of thieves and assassins, forming an organization known as the Syndicate.\n\nAt first the Syndicate\'s goal was just to spread chaos and disorder, striking from hidden bases in the Alterac Mountains. With the end of the Third War and the resultant chaos however, the leaders of the Syndicate saw their chance to return Alterac to its former power. They have now gained control of several outposts in the surrounding area including the sacked fortress of Durnholde Keep and a portion of the city of Stromgarde.\n\nThey are enemies of both the Alliance, whom they consider their mortal enemies, and the Horde, whom they consider mere brutes good for nothing but slave labor.

With all players starting at 32000/36000 hated with the faction, it would require killing 10,000 Ravenholdt NPCs to reach Neutral status with the faction; unfortunately, neutral status is the highest you can reach with the Syndicate, and if not to deter players further, none of the Ravenholdt NPCs drop loot.\n\n[b]WARNING[/b]: If you do decide to kill Ravenholdt NPCs, know that there is currently no way to restore your standings with Ravenholdt, if you do go below Neutral. The reason for the problem is that none of the quests that give Ravenholdt Reputation points will be available because none of the members from Ravenholdt will speak to you. This would mean its a permanent change and you will never be able to interact with any of the NPC loyal to Ravenholdt ever again.

After the orcs were defeated at the Dark Portal at the end of the Second War, it was decided that the city would be rebuilt, even surpassing its former grandeur. The nobles of Stormwind assembled a team of the most skilled and ingenious stonemasons and architects they could find. Under their direction, Stormwind was rebuilt in an amazingly short period of time. Now, at the end of the Third War, in the renamed Kingdom of Stormwind, it stands as one of the last bastions of human power left in the world. \n\nWith the fall of the northern kingdoms, Stormwind is by far the most populated city in the world. Boasting a population of two-hundred thousand people (predominantly human), it serves in many ways as the cultural and trade center of the Alliance, even with remote access to the sea. The humans living in the city are generally carefree and artistic, favoring light and colorful clothes, cuisine and art. It is home to the Academy of Arcane Sciences, the only wizarding school in Eastern Kingdoms, as well as SI:7, a rogue intelligence organization.\n\nHowever, the people of Stormwind find it difficult to accept Theramore\'s role as the home of the new Alliance, convinced not only that Stormwind should be the legitimate heir of Lordaeron\'s role in the past, but also that Theramore is doing little against the worsening situation within the Eastern Kingdoms.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\n[npc=14722] has the repeatable cloth quests to achieve a higher reputation with Stormwind.

At first it may seem a simple task as the guards don\'t appear as threatening as the other monsters a player faces within the game. However, the guards are highly equipped to neutralize players of any class, to prevent people from attacking each other while in the town. What gives the Booty Bay Bruiser the advantage is several factors, one of them being their ability to use nets to lock you in place, preventing you from escaping. Another is the fact that they spawn every time you attack a citizen of the city or if you’re under Unfriendly status with Booty Bay the Bruisers can spawn if you enter a building, because of this players can soon find them selves swarmed by Bruisers.\n\nYet, theses are just the minor problems, in comparison to the Bruiser’s strongest ability, once it pulls out its gun its unlikely you will live, if you do not escape fast enough. Each time a guard shoots you, the attack throws you back, much like an Ogre hammer attack; the difference here is that the Bruiser can shoot in quick succession causing chain throw backs. A player can literally be thrown from one side of the town to the other, preventing you from attacking. More often you will find your self being forced into a corner, unable to move and unable to attack with each spell being interrupted by the Bruiser’s attack. Because the Bruisers do not put their guns away once they are out, the best course of action is to run away. \n\nThrough trial and error most people have discovered a safe place to kill Booty Bay Bruisers. If you follow the tunnel leading into the town, the path to your left that leads to the Blacksmith house is the ideal place to kill the guards. Only two guards patrol this path and normally don’t pass each other that closely, allowing both to be dispatched separately. Once they are gone, one can simply enter the first build on the path to cause a guard to spawn if they are below Unfriendly, if not they can simply attack one of the two NPC in the build, both of which are not high in level. Doing this a player should be able to kill 2 to 4 Bruisers before the two patrolling Bruisers re-spawn. On average a player doing this can kill about 30 to 40 Booty Bay Bruisers gaining about 800 reputation points with the pirates. The Bruisers here don’t appear to pull out their guns, but if you find your self in a bad situation, you can jump over the railing running along the path to the waters below, to escape.\n\n[h3]Rewards[/h3]\nBecoming friendly with the Bloodsail Buccaneers will grant you access to the following items:\n\n[ul]\n[li][item=12185] - Summons a [npc=11236][/li]\n[li][item=22742][/li]\n[li][item=22743][/li]\n[li][item=22745][/li]\n[/ul]\n\nYou will need Honored with the Bloodsail Buccaneers for [achievement=2336].',NULL),(8,92,0,'[b]Gelkis[/b] are a tribe of centaur who have made their home in the southmost parts of [zone=405].

Over time two distinct troll empires emerged - the Amani and the Gurubashi. They existed for thousands of years until the coming of the Night Elves, who warred with them and eventually drove both empires into exile. \n\nFollowing the Great Sundering, the defeated Gurubashi grew ever more desperate to eke out a living. Searching for a means to survive, they enlisted the aid of the savage [npc=14834], also known as the Soulflayer. Hakkar grew into a merciless oppressor who demanded daily sacrifices from his devotees, and so in time the Gurubashi turned on their dark master. The strongest tribes (including the Zandalar) banded together to defeat Hakkar and his loyal troll priests, the Atal\'ai. The united tribes narrowly defeated the Blood God and cast out the Atal\'ai... despite their victory, however, the Gurubashi Empire soon fell. \n\nIn recent years the exiled Atal\'ai priests have discovered that Hakkar\'s physical form can only be summoned within the ancient and once-deserted capital of the Gurubashi Empire, Zul\'Gurub.

Rising out of the northern [zone=440] desert like an oasis, Gadgetzan is the headquarters of the Steamwheedle Cartel, the largest of the Goblin Cartels. The Goblins believe in profit above loyalty, thus Gadgetzan is considered neutral territory in the Horde/Alliance conflict.\n\n[h3]History[/h3]\nAlthough the goblins\' neutrality is almost universally acknowledged, there are still those who seek to sow chaos and anarchy. For Gadgetzan, this comes in the form of the Wastewander bandits, a gang of miscreants who have occupied the Waterspring Field and Noonshade Ruins of northeast Tanaris. Few goblins care about ancient ruins (unless they have treasure) – for all they care, the bandits can have the old blocks of stone. \n\nHowever, the Waterspring Field is vital to the goblins\' survival in the desert, providing them with the liquid gold of the desert. Water towers out in the field were constructed under the blazing heat of the desert sun by the backbreaking work of their slaves, and by Az, the goblins aren\'t going to give up their hard earned towers that easily. However, the Bruisers need to stay in town to keep the gnomes\' collective Napoleonic-complex from getting out of hand and to stop the seemingly endless dueling among the various visitors from disrupting business. Therefore, it falls to brave mercenaries from all corners of the world to help the goblins in their time of utmost need.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nKilling the [url=?npcs=7&filter=na=Southsea]Southsea[/url] and [url=?npcs=7&filter=na=Wastewander]Wastewander[/url] monsters will increase your reputation with the Steamwheedle Cartel.

Its streets sprawl in every direction, and the architecture shows no consistency or common vision. It is a city of entertainment and trade, where anything that anyone would ever want to buy — and plenty of things that no one ever wants to buy — is on sale.\n\nRatchet is currently run by a corporate group known as the Steamwheedle Cartel a splinter group from the Venture Company, who first built the port town for trading with [zone=1637]. It is initially a neutral faction to both Horde and Alliance. A ferry conveniently connects Ratchet to Booty Bay.\n\n[h3]History[/h3]\nBuilt from equal parts of industry and decadence, the goblin port city of Ratchet sprawls along nearly a mile of of coastline where the eastern Barrens poke between [zone=14] and the [zone=15] to the sea. Ratchet is the pride of the goblins, a trade city where you can find almost anything your heart desires - and if something is not in stock, you can bet the goblins can order it. Ratchet also had regular ferries that traversed the safe though roundabout route to the island stronghold of Theramore to the south.\n\nRatchet is a city where creatures who were once the butt of jokes now reign supreme. Its streets wander without rhyme or reason through neighborhoods dedicated to one activity: commerce. Ramshackle warehouses stand next to stately stone homes. Fine shops press cheek to jowl with rude huts. Wares of every type imaginable - and some beyond the imagination - are on display in markets and in exclusive boutiques.\n\nGoblins welcome anyone with gold or items of value and a willingness to trade them for their wares and services. Merchants throng the marketplaces each day, selling everything from silks to slaves, and even at night the stores lining the twisting streets and alleys remain open for business. Those with the money can listen to skilled musicians while drinking fine ales and eating food prepared by expert chefs. For those with earthier tastes, the streets along the wharf teem with whorehouses, taprooms, and casinos.\n\nRatchet is the largest port on Kalimdor, with as many ships bringing cargo in as there are ships heading out for other sites around Kalimdor. In addition to legitimate trade vessels, pirate craft receive amnesty while in the port of Ratchet as long as they can pay the stiff docking fees. This situation makes many merchant captains furious, but they cannot hope to stay in business if they boycott Ratchet. Moreover, the Lawkeepers and hired mercenaries prowling the waterfront are eager to deal with anyone looking to cause trouble.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nMost of the quests to raise reputation with Ratchet and the Steamwheedle Cartel are located in the Barrens.

The faction has been removed in patch 2.0.1.\n\n[h3]History[/h3]\n\nJust prior to the [object=175739], the Wildhammer Clan, ruled by Thane Khardros Wildhammer, inhabited the foothills and crags around the base of Ironforge. The Wildhammer Clan was unsuccessful in wresting control of [zone=1537] from the Bronzebeard and Dark Iron clans. Khardros and his Wildhammer warriors traveled north through the barrier gates of Dun Algaz, and founded their own kingdom within the distant peak of Grim Batol. There, the Wildhammers thrived and rebuilt their stores of treasure.\n\n[npc=9019] and his Dark Irons vowed revenge against Ironforge. Thaurissan and his sorceress wife, Modgud, launched a two-pronged assault against both Ironforge and Grim Batol. As Modgud confronted the enemy warriors, she used her powers to strike fear into their hearts. Shadows moved at her command, and dark things crawled up from the depths of the earth to stalk the Wildhammers in their own halls. Eventually Modgud broke through the gates and laid siege to the fortress itself. The Wildhammers fought desperately, Khardros himself wading through the roiling masses to slay the sorceress queen. With their queen lost, the Dark Irons fled before the fury of the Wildhammers.\n\nOnce the immediate Dark Iron threat was eliminated, the Wildhammers returned home to Grim Batol. However, the death of the Modgud had left an evil stain on the mountain fortress, and the Wildhammers found it uninhabitable. Khardros took his people north towards the lands of Lordaeron. Settling within the mountainous region of the Aerie Peaks and The Hinterlands, and lush forests of Northeron, the Wildhammers crafted the city of Aerie Peak, where the Wildhammers grew closer to nature and even bonded with the mighty gryphons of the area. Over time they started calling their land the Hinterlands. \n\n[b]Modern Wildhammers[/b]\nThe Wildhammer Clan currently makes its home at Aerie Peak in the Hinterlands. The most immediate threat to their security comes from the east in the form of the Witherbark Trolls and Vilebranch Trolls.

Having settled in what are believed today to be the Broken Isles, the tribe soon found themselves entangled in a conflict with a band of murlocs. Their fate seemed sealed until the orcish Warchief Thrall and his band of newly freed orcs took shelter on their island home. Controlled by a Sea Witch, a group of rampaging murlocs captured the Darkspears\' leader Sen\'jin, along with Thrall and several other orcs and trolls. Thrall managed to free himself and others, but was ultimately unable to save the trolls\' leader. Although Sen\'jin was sacrificed to the Sea Witch, he was able to reveal a vision he had in which Thrall would lead the Darkspear from the island. \n\nAfter returning to the island, Thrall and his followers managed to fend off further attacks by the Sea Witch and her murloc minions, and set sail for Kalimdor once again.

Just [url=/?aboutus#contact]contact us[/url], or post on our [url=/?forums&board=1]forums[/url]! \r\n\r\n[pad]\r\n\r\n[tabs name=weights]\r\n\r\n[tab name=FAQ]\r\n\r\n[h3]How do weights work?[/h3]\r\nThe weighting system allows you to give a weight value to attributes that matter to you and applies your ratings to items in your search results. Each weight value is multiplied by an item\'s stat points and then added together to get the item\'s total score. This score is used to sort the results and display the highest scoring items.\r\n\r\nIf you decide that spell damage is worth twice as much as spell crit, you could add the weights as 2 and 1, 100 and 50, or any other numbers with the same ratio.\r\n\r\nPlease note that weights only work for [url=/?items=4]Armor[/url], [url=/?items=2]Weapons[/url], [url=/?items=3]Gems[/url] and [url=/?items=0]Consumables[/url]. \r\n[h3]What is the difference between weights and equivalency?[/h3]\r\nThe equivalency of two attributes describes how much one equals the other. You may find equivalency ratings that say something like 1 agility = 1.5 strength. This is [b]not[/b] the same as weight values; in fact, it\'s the exact opposite! Equivalency describes the ratio of the stats to each other, which can be used to derive the stat weights. In this example, an appropriate set of weights might be agility 3 and strength 2; this works out to agility being [i]1.5 times as valuable[/i] as strength. \r\n[h3]Is there a way to save a template that I have created?[/h3]\r\nThere sure is! You can save your stat weighting scales by going to the \'Preset\' dropdown menu, selecting \'custom,\' and then filling in your own weights. After you\'ve modified them to your liking, you can hit \'Save\' to give them a name so they can be used for future searches as well.\r\n\r\nWeights also carry over from one item list to another if you use the database menu, so going from a [url=/?items=2&filter=wt=51:48:49;wtv=83:67:58]weighted list of weapons[/url] to the [url=/?items=4&filter=wt=51:48:49;wtv=83:67:58]cloth armor listing[/url] will also maintain your current weight scale. \r\n[h3]Is it better to match sockets and gain the socket bonus, or use the best gems?[/h3]\r\nThe weighting system answers this for you automatically. It compares the score of matching gems plus the score of the socket bonus, to the score of the best gems it could put in that item. It will automatically put in the gems that result in the highest net rating, taking socket bonuses into account. When the socket colors are matched, the socket bonus text will be listed below the gems for each item. \r\n\r\n[h3]What are the default weight presets based on?[/h3]\r\nWe\'ve done a great deal of research, tracking down equivalence points for all of the classes.

Two-handers rank higher because by themselves they do have better stats than a one-hander with nothing else in the off hand. If you add up the scores of a main hand and off hand item, the total score is what you should use to compare to that of a two-hander. We do not assume a score for your offhand item, as there is no way of knowing what you have or can obtain for that slot unless you do a weighted search for it. \r\n[h3]Why does the preset list X as more important than Y?[/h3]\r\nSome attributes come in unusual value ranges on items, which affects their equivalency to other stats. It does not mean that your should focus on or ignore that stat, but that a single point of it is worth more or less compared to other stats. Stats with high number ranges (armor, weapon damage, penetration, etc) will require smaller weight values, while stats with low number ranges (mana regeneration) will require much larger weight values.\r\n\r\nIn essence, giving mana regeneration a score of 100 and healing a score of 25 does [b]not[/b] say that mana regeneration is more important than healing, simply that each point of mana regeneration is the equivalent of 4 points of healing.\r\n[h3]Why don\'t you have a preset for PvP/Tier 6 Raiding/...? Why doesn\'t your preset give a stat value for X?[/h3]\r\nIf you would like to suggest changes to the existing presets or new presets for other specs or situations, please do so to [feedback]. \r\n[h3]Why doesn\'t the preset limit the items to X, Y, and Z?[/h3]\r\nThe weight presets are for sorting; filters are for limiting the search results. If you want to restrict the items you see, use the appropriate tool - the filter options. The only limit applied by the weight scales is that it will not display items with a score of 0 or less. You should continue to use the existing filtering system if you want to see items of a specific type, slot, source, speed, etc.\r\n[h3]Why does it suggest the gems it does for the sockets?[/h3]\r\nThe suggested gems are based on your weights. If you would like to see a different gem in the sockets, try increasing the weight of the appropriate stat. If you feel the weights in the presets need to be adjusted, please let us know at [feedback].\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[/tabs]',NULL),(-13,2,0,'[menu tab=2 path=2,13,2]\r\n\r\nWe thrive on user contributions!

It should showcase the main object, but take into account the details around it. The same 7 elements of art design come into play here, Line, Shape, Form, Space, Texture, Light & Color. We\'ll touch on several of these and how to make use of the in game settings and mechanics to enhance your pictures.\r\n\r\nTurn your resolution and color sampling as high as your computer can handle. Turn on all the image effects and details, but turn down the weather effects to the lowest setting. In general you want all your glow and spell effects maxed to really show the environment to its fullest potential (they actually help with the lighting too!) You may find a shot that you need to play with these settings to enhance, sometimes turning down environmental detail is helpful to remove extra grasses.\r\n\r\nWorld of Warcraft actually has an internal setting for screenshot quality, and by default that quality is set to [b]3/10[/b]. You can turn this up, though, in order to take higher quality screenshots. In order to do so, type this command into your chatbox:\r\n\r\n[code]/console screenshotQuality 10[/code]\r\n\r\nMost of the time taking the pictures from 1st person view works best, so zoom all the way in so that you\'re looking through your character\'s eyes. Occasionally the object might be too big (large NPCs especially) to use this view - if this is the case get as close to them as you can without having your body in the shot and swing the camera around to get the angle that you\'re looking for.\r\n\r\nPay attention to the light - a well lit picture is 10 times better than a dark one. You may even want to do a little color correcting before uploading - increase the brightness and contrast a touch. For instance - it\'s a lot easier to take pictures in sunny Stormwind than deep in the mountains of torch lit Ironforge. Daytime pictures also turn out better than night.\r\n\r\n[h3]Featuring Armor[/h3]\r\n\r\n[screenshot url=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/armor.jpg thumb=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/armor2.jpg float=right]Dreamwalker Spaulders[/screenshot]We want to see the armor! Not Joe Schmoe in the armor. In general you want close ups of the piece itself (except for full set pictures). Don\'t be afraid to submit a 4 inch picture of one glove. Once\'s it\'s cropped and loaded and shrunk down to the thumbnail it will look great!\r\n\r\nUse your best judgment when cropping armor pics, but remember - we want to see details of the armor - not the person or a far away image. Of course, this also applies to weapons or any other piece of equipment!\r\n\r\n[h3]Featuring NPCs[/h3]\r\n\r\n[screenshot url=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/npc.jpg thumb=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/npc2.jpg float=right]Cairne Bloodhoof [/screenshot]Full body shots should be the norm. If you can\'t get a good full shot (e.g. they\'re standing behind a counter) get the waist up shot. There\'s no need to include the on-screen text and titles of NPCs. The website already lists those, so just get in close and take a great shot of the NPC itself.\r\n\r\nGet down on their level - you may need to \"/sit\" or even \"/sleep\" to get a good view of something low to the ground (scorpions, boots, spiders, etc.)\r\n\r\nWhen capturing moving NPCs, try to get as much a head on front shot as you can, being willing to take a few hits while you take picture of a mob attacking you can make for a great shot. If you don\'t want to get your hands dirty, sitting in place for a while and waiting for it to path in front of you is often easier and faster than running around it trying to get your shot.\r\n\r\nTalking to friendly NPCs will usually make them face you - you can then spin around and get the best background for your picture.

This box is chock full of useful information, including talent spec, achievement points, and professions.\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: Any raid icon that\'s ringed in [color=c4]gold[/color] is a raid that the character has cleared![/i]\r\n[h3]Statistics[/h3]\r\nYou\'ll also notice that all of a profile\'s statistics are laid out beneath the character view. This is also all information you can get from the Armory (and then some), but we lay it out in a nice, convenient page so you can view it all at once – no more messing with drop down menus. You can also click on a statistic and expand it so you can see its tooltip information right there on the page—or click on the header to expand all the related statistics. Your statistics are updated as you edit any part of a profile, including race, class, level, items, enhancements, or talents – all in real time! [b]Statistic modifications from glyphs and buffs are not presently supported, but will be in the future.[/b]\r\n\r\n[i]Note: These statistics are calculated manually – they are not pulled from the Armory. Statistics calculations are still in beta and will ironed out as we go.[/i]\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/statistics.gif float=center]\r\n\r\n[h3]Gear Summary[/h3]\r\n[div float=right align=right][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/gearsummary.gif]\r\n[small]A warning message is displayed for missing enhancements.[/small][/div]Last on the character inventory tab, but not least, is the gear summary. This is a personalized list of all items worn by the character, with convenient column headers and in line filtering options. Use it to see where most of a character\'s items come from, what is the best and worst piece, and whether or not there are missing gems and enchants. Just in case the empty icons aren\'t clear enough, a warning appears at the top of the list if a character is missing gems, enchants, or blacksmith sockets. This [color=q10]warning[/color] is based on the professions of the character if it is an Armory profile, and otherwise shows you everything missing on custom profiles.\r\n\r\nThe gems and enchants can also be edited from within the gear summary, and have a few additional options not available in the character view. You can remove or replace an enhancement from here, and you can find upgrades using our [url=/?help=stat-weighting]weighted search[/url] – just like items!\r\n\r\n[h3]Talents[/h3]\r\nThe talents tab includes an inline version of our [url=/?talent]talent calculator[/url] with a full display of a character\'s talents. It is locked by default, but you can unlock it to begin editing talents, just as you would normally. There are two extra features in the Profiler\'s talent calculator: you can store and swap between two specs for each character, and export the current talent build to the calculator to link to your friends. When you change your talents (or swap between specs) your gear score and statistics will be updates real time!\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=\"Other tabs\"]\r\n\r\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\r\nThe reputation tab displays the complete faction information of an Armory character, with collapsible headers for each section. Its much easier to read than the tiny faction pane in game! Of course, you can link directly to the faction\'s page to get more information about that faction. \r\n[h3][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/achievements.gif float=right]Achievements[/h3]\r\nThe achievements tab lists an Armory character\'s progress in each of the main achievement categories, and has a filterable list of achievements including date completed. All of the normal column and list filters are available, along with some new ones! You can filter the list by earned, in progress or complete achievements – complete are displayed by default – or click on any of the category progress bars to only display achievements from that category.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=Completion_Tracker]\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/quests.jpg float=right width=450]You can use the Profiler\'s [b]Completion Tracker[/b] feature to keep track of your quests, achievements, pets, mounts, recipes, and more!\r\n\r\n[h3]Getting Started[/h3]\r\n\r\nIn order to start tracking your completion data, all you need to do is visit your character\'s page on the profiler and resync it. This will automatically collect data about your character\'s completed achievements, companion pets, mounts, quests, recipes, reputations and titles.\r\n\r\n[h3][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/completion.jpg float=right]Tracking Your Completion Data[/h3]\r\n\r\nOnce you\'ve got your data up on the site, it will be available in the form of five new tabs: [b]mounts[/b], [b]companions[/b], [b]recipes[/b], [b]quests[/b], and [b]titles[/b].\r\n\r\nIf you open the mounts, companions, or titles tabs, you\'ll immediately be greeted by a list of all the entries you\'ve already completed. You can cycle through the different tabs to see the ones you already have, the ones you still have yet to collect, a complete list, or a list of just the ones you\'ve \"excluded\" (more on that shortly). You can also use the \"Search within results\" box to search the list based on a keyword, just like you can with other search results in the database.\r\n\r\nThe recipe, and quest tabs, like the Achievements tab, contain more entries—so you\'ll be presented with a box like the one shown above. From there, all you have to do is click one of the progress bars to see the complete tabbed list in each category.\r\n\r\n[h3]Exclusions[/h3]\r\n\r\nWhen you\'re trying to make sure we check off every quest, achievement, or mount on our list, everyone knows that there are some that you just don\'t want to bother with. To that end, we\'ve created [b]exclusions[/b].\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/exclusions.jpg float=right]Using exclusions, you can flag certain quests, mounts, achievements, recipes, pets, or titles that \"don\'t count\" toward your completion total. When you exclude (for example) a quest, that quest no longer appears in \"incomplete\" listings, and the total number of quests in that category is reduced by one.\r\n\r\n[b]For example:[/b] There are 632 quests in the \"Eastern Kingdoms\" category. If I were to decide that [quest=367] is for noobs and I don\'t want to count it, then all I have to do is put a check in the box next to the quest and click \"Exclude\". After I do so, the Eastern Kingdoms progress bar will only show [i]631[/i] quests total—the remaining quest will appear in the \"Excluded\" tab but won\'t be counted for anything else.\r\n\r\nIf you want to re-include a quest, just go to the \"Excluded\" tab and then use the checkboxes to restore as many as you like. You can do the same thing for achievements, titles, mounts, pets, or recipes.\r\n\r\nIf you [b]complete[/b] a quest that you have excluded, it will show in the progress bar as a [b]+1[/b]. Example: If there are 31 quests in the \"Miscellaneous\" category, and I\'ve completed 20 quests and excluded 1, the progress bar will show [b]20/30[/b]. If I have completed [i]the quest that I excluded[/i], then the progress bar will show [b]20(+1)/30[/b]. If I then go on to complete ALL the quests in that category (including the one I excluded), the progress bar will show [b]30(+1)/30[/b].\r\n\r\n[b]Exclusion Manager[/b]\r\nThe companions and mounts tabs let you manage your exclusions en masse with the Exclusion Manager. Just click the \"Manage Exclusions\" button on top of the tabs to see a list of convenient categories you might want to exclude. There\'s also a \"reset all\" button here to let you wipe all of your exclusions and start over.\r\n\r\n[b]Note:[/b] The Exclusion Manager is currently only available for companions and mounts.\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: Exclusions are tied to your account, not to a particular character. This is so even when you look at someone else\'s character, you\'re judging them by [/i]your[i] completion standards, not anyone else\'s![/i] \r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=Calculations]\r\n\r\nMost of the information we display is pretty straightforward. A lot of it, particularly the stats on items, is readily available in our database and on various tooltips. There are some new numbers on profile pages that you may ask, what does this number mean? How was it calculated?\r\n[h3]Base Statistics[/h3]\r\nA character\'s five base statistics are determined primarily by his or her class and level. This base amount has a modifier applied to it depending on the character\'s race. We gathered an extensive amount of data from the armory to come up with these base numbers, using untalented individuals of every race, class, and level combination. Because racial modifiers are consistent, we are able to create statistics for \"fake\" race and class combos using the data we already know. However, the Armory does not give data on characters below level 10 or Death Knights below level 55, so we have no statistic information for these profiles. To simplify things, we have set a minimum level for custom profiles based on the available statistics.\r\n[h3]Gear Score[/h3]\r\nOkay, so a lot of sites have gear scores. Most of them (ours included) are based around the [url=http://www.wowwiki.com/Item_level]item budget[/url] Blizzard uses to determine how much of each stat can be on an item. This budget is calculated using the item\'s level, quality, and slot, and we use the budget as the item\'s gear score. You can view a complete breakdown of an item\'s gear score by mousing over it in the [url=/?help=profiler#profiler-inventory-and-talents]gear summary[/url] at the bottom of the character tab. You can view a breakdown of a profile\'s total gear score by mousing over it in the Quick Facts box, also on the character tab.\r\n\r\nEach gear score is color coded based on the item levels of the gear in reference to the character level. [b][color=q0]Grey[/color][/b] for poor, [b][color=q1]White[/color][/b] for common, [b][color=q2]Green[/color][/b] for uncommon, [b][color=q3]Blue[/color][/b] for rare, [b][color=q4]Purple[/color][/b] for epic and [b][color=q5]Orange[/color][/b] for legendary. For example, a level 70 character wearing high item-level, raiding epics from [zone=3606] and [zone=3959] will have a purple-colored gearscore, as their items are considerably \"epic\" quality for their level. However, the same character at 80, if wearing this same gear, will have the gearscore colored blue as the items are of lower-than-optimal quality for their level.\r\n\r\nThe value of an empty socket was generated using the gear score of appropriate gems for the item in question, and subtracted from the item\'s score. This allows us to score unsocketed items lower than an item without sockets of the same level, quality, and slot. Items with better than expected gems will receive higher scores, and items with lower quality gems (or no gems at all) will receive lower scores.\r\n\r\nThe values of enchants are based off of the level of the enchantment. Endgame enchantments are 20 points, profession perks are 40 points, etc. The numbers go down from there.\r\n\r\nYou may notice that some profiles have different gear scores for the same item. There is an extreme difference in budget between a two-handed or one-handed weapon, which causes a discrepancy in scores between characters who should be fairly equal according to the level of their gear. To address this, the gear score of weapons has been normalized so that a character with appropriate weapon choices has the equivalent score of two two-handed weapons. Appropriate weapons are determined by your class and spec; for example, an enhancement shaman should dual wield one handed weapons, a protection warrior should have a one-hander and shield, etc. For classes which the melee weapons don\'t really matter – like hunters or spellcasters – anything they can use is considered appropriate.\r\n\r\n[i]Note: Gear score does not take into account the stats of the item. It is a measurement of quality of gear, not whether the stats on the gear are suited to the character\'s spec.[/i]\r\n\r\n[h3]Guild Scores[/h3]\r\nGuild gear scores and achievement points are derived using a weighted average of all of the known characters in that guild. Guilds with at least 25 level 80 players receive full benefit of the top 25 characters\' gear scores, while guilds with at least 10 level 80 characters receive a slight penalty, at least 1 level 80 a moderate penalty, and no level 80 characters a severe penalty. This is to prevent small guilds and bank alts from appearing to have higher scores than legitimate raiding guilds. Instead of being based on level, achievement point averages are based around 1,500 points, but the same penalties apply.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[/tabs]',NULL),(8,577,0,'[minibox]\n[h2]Steamwheedle Cartel[/h2]\n[faction=21]\n[faction=577]\n[faction=369]\n[b]Everlook[/b]\n[/minibox]\n\n[b]Everlook[/b], the faction of the town Everlook, is a trading post is run by the goblins of the Steamwheedle Cartel.

It is run by goblins as a trading post and is officially neutral to all races and factions. Even so, pilgrims allowed to venture up to the World Tree stop here, but otherwise this is the highest that merchants and explorers may venture without the night elves’ permission. Everlook would offer a commanding view of Kalimdor, if it were not at such a high altitude that clouds constantly shroud the mountain’s lower flanks.\n\nEverlook is the only major goblin outpost in northern Kalimdor, and it serves several purposes. First, it serves as the base of operations for goblin thorium and arcanite miners since Winterspring has some of the few untapped veins of those materials on the continent. Second, it serves as a center of trade between the Alliance and the Horde. While Everlook is hardly as safe as Moonglade, generally the Alliance and the Horde treat each other fairly well there. Additionally, Everlook is a frequent stop-off and resupply point for the faithful who make the pilgrimage through Winterspring to Hyjal Summit.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nReputation for Everlook and the Steamwheedle Cartel is mostly gained from quests in Winterspring.

The Convocation of Silvermoon (also known as \"The Silvermoon Council\"), the ruling body of the high elves was also based here. Across a stretch of ocean to the north is the island that contains the Sunwell.[pad]Although Silvermoon itself was left relatively unscathed from the second war, in the third war the Death Knight Arthas led the Scourge into the city, attacking it on his quest to reach the Sunwell. The High Elven King was slain and the majority of the population killed. Scourge forces held the city for a time but abandoned it after the depleting of its resources.[pad]Though the city was attacked by the Scourge, it is not as destroyed as one might think. Though many of its plants are dead, and the occasional dead body is sprawled across the cobblestone, the city was immune to the fire and destruction. Silvermoon now resembles a ghost town, intact, but eerily abandoned.

However, the Expedition has discovered troubling goings-on in the marsh. Water levels in many parts of Zangarmarsh are decreasing, and some areas such as the Dead Mire have already suffered greatly from this strange phenomenon. It has become known that this decrease in the water levels can be attributed to pumps that have been constructed in the Marsh by the naga. Their purpose is to create a new Well of Eternity for [npc=22917]. However, the Expedition cannot afford direct confrontation with the naga so numerous in the Zangarmarsh and [url=?search=coilfang#c0z]Coilfang Reservoir[/url]. It needs the aid of those willing to assist the druids in their dangerous battle against those who seek to disturb the marsh\'s natural balance. Quite naturally, those heroic enough to fight the naga at Coilfang Reservoir will be well rewarded.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\n[b]Neutral to Honored[/b]\nKill Naga, while also running [zone=3717] whenever you can; a good instance run will net reputation faster than soloing. Alternatively, the player can begin turning in [item=24401] for a chance at an [item=24407], which can be turned in for 500 reputation.

It is also the time to turn in any Uncatalogued Species you have found. Doing this should get you part of the way into Revered.\n\nAlternatively, you can finish leveling to 70 and run [zone=3715].

You will then be able to turn in [item=24368], which drop in both Steamvault and Slave Pens, receiving 250 reputation for the first turn-in and 75 reputation each thereafter. This turn-in is available all the way to Exalted.\n\nOnce you are 70 and have upgraded your gear, you can opt to run Slave Pens, Underbog, and Steamvault on Heroic Mode upon purchasing the [item=30623]. While the instances are difficult, they award significant reputation: regular mobs are worth 15 reputation, 2 for non-elites, and 150/250 for bosses. This method works until Exalted.[pad][b]Revered to Exalted[/b]\nContinue with the same strategy as above: finish any remaining quests, run Steamvault, and continue with [item=24368] turn-ins.\n\nIt is also possible to run Slave Pens, Underbog, and Steamvault on Heroic Mode. The reputation gained is not much more than running Steamvault in normal mode, whilst the time investment for heroic dungeons is much higher, possibly resulting in a lower net reputation per hour, however the loot is better and you will receive [item=29434] from the bosses which can be used to purchase high quality epic gear.',NULL),(8,946,0,'A refuge of human, elven, draenei and dwarven explorers, [b]Honor Hold[/b] is the first major town Alliance explorers will encounter while traversing Outland.

Massive doors of rock protect the city in times of war, and lava from the mountain itself is redirected and distributed for heat, energy and smithing purposes. Before the Dark Iron Clan was banished from the city, eventually leading to the War of the Three Hammers, Ironforge was the commercial and social center of all the dwarven clans. It is now home to the Bronzebeard Clan. Many dwarven strongholds fell during the Second War between the Horde and the Alliance of Lordaeron, but the mighty city of Ironforge, nestled in the wintry peaks of [zone=1] and protected by its great gates, was never breached by the invading Horde.\n\nRelatively recently, Ironforge also became home to the Gnomeregan refugees.

Perenolde believed that a Horde victory was inevitable, and thus offered aid to the Horde by stirring up rebellions, attacking Alliance bases, and giving them supplies. When this treachery was discovered, the Alliance marched on Alterac and destroyed it. Perenolde and any nobles who went along with his plans were stripped of their titles and land. Many of the nobility managed to escape, however, and began plotting their revenge. Using their still sizable fortunes, the nobility hired a band of thieves and assassins, forming an organization known as the Syndicate.\n\nAt first the Syndicate\'s goal was just to spread chaos and disorder, striking from hidden bases in the Alterac Mountains. With the end of the Third War and the resultant chaos however, the leaders of the Syndicate saw their chance to return Alterac to its former power. They have now gained control of several outposts in the surrounding area including the sacked fortress of Durnholde Keep and a portion of the city of Stromgarde.\n\nThey are enemies of both the Alliance, whom they consider their mortal enemies, and the Horde, whom they consider mere brutes good for nothing but slave labor. As a result, the Syndicate is now hunted by both factions, with the [npc=10181], in particular, placing a bounty on their heads - guaranteeing that all captured Syndicate members will be summarily executed.

There are no known rewards for increasing Syndicate reputation, and Ravenholdt-affiliated NPCs only give 1 Syndicate Reputation points, with the exception of [npc=13085], who gives 5 (although the corresponding loss of reputation with Ravenholdt is also five times as great). With all players starting at 32000/36000 hated with the faction, it would require killing 10,000 Ravenholdt NPCs to reach Neutral status with the faction; unfortunately, neutral status is the highest you can reach with the Syndicate, and if not to deter players further, none of the Ravenholdt NPCs drop loot.\n\n[b]WARNING[/b]: If you do decide to kill Ravenholdt NPCs, know that there is currently no way to restore your standings with Ravenholdt, if you do go below Neutral. The reason for the problem is that none of the quests that give Ravenholdt Reputation points will be available because none of the members from Ravenholdt will speak to you. This would mean its a permanent change and you will never be able to interact with any of the NPC loyal to Ravenholdt ever again.

After the orcs were defeated at the Dark Portal at the end of the Second War, it was decided that the city would be rebuilt, even surpassing its former grandeur. The nobles of Stormwind assembled a team of the most skilled and ingenious stonemasons and architects they could find. Under their direction, Stormwind was rebuilt in an amazingly short period of time. Now, at the end of the Third War, in the renamed Kingdom of Stormwind, it stands as one of the last bastions of human power left in the world. \n\nWith the fall of the northern kingdoms, Stormwind is by far the most populated city in the world. Boasting a population of two-hundred thousand people (predominantly human), it serves in many ways as the cultural and trade center of the Alliance, even with remote access to the sea. The humans living in the city are generally carefree and artistic, favoring light and colorful clothes, cuisine and art. It is home to the Academy of Arcane Sciences, the only wizarding school in Eastern Kingdoms, as well as SI:7, a rogue intelligence organization.\n\nHowever, the people of Stormwind find it difficult to accept Theramore\'s role as the home of the new Alliance, convinced not only that Stormwind should be the legitimate heir of Lordaeron\'s role in the past, but also that Theramore is doing little against the worsening situation within the Eastern Kingdoms.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\n[npc=14722] has the repeatable cloth quests to achieve a higher reputation with Stormwind.

At first it may seem a simple task as the guards don\'t appear as threatening as the other monsters a player faces within the game. However, the guards are highly equipped to neutralize players of any class, to prevent people from attacking each other while in the town. What gives the Booty Bay Bruiser the advantage is several factors, one of them being their ability to use nets to lock you in place, preventing you from escaping. Another is the fact that they spawn every time you attack a citizen of the city or if you’re under Unfriendly status with Booty Bay the Bruisers can spawn if you enter a building, because of this players can soon find them selves swarmed by Bruisers.\n\nYet, theses are just the minor problems, in comparison to the Bruiser’s strongest ability, once it pulls out its gun its unlikely you will live, if you do not escape fast enough. Each time a guard shoots you, the attack throws you back, much like an Ogre hammer attack; the difference here is that the Bruiser can shoot in quick succession causing chain throw backs. A player can literally be thrown from one side of the town to the other, preventing you from attacking. More often you will find your self being forced into a corner, unable to move and unable to attack with each spell being interrupted by the Bruiser’s attack. Because the Bruisers do not put their guns away once they are out, the best course of action is to run away. \n\nThrough trial and error most people have discovered a safe place to kill Booty Bay Bruisers. If you follow the tunnel leading into the town, the path to your left that leads to the Blacksmith house is the ideal place to kill the guards. Only two guards patrol this path and normally don’t pass each other that closely, allowing both to be dispatched separately. Once they are gone, one can simply enter the first build on the path to cause a guard to spawn if they are below Unfriendly, if not they can simply attack one of the two NPC in the build, both of which are not high in level. Doing this a player should be able to kill 2 to 4 Bruisers before the two patrolling Bruisers re-spawn. On average a player doing this can kill about 30 to 40 Booty Bay Bruisers gaining about 800 reputation points with the pirates. The Bruisers here don’t appear to pull out their guns, but if you find your self in a bad situation, you can jump over the railing running along the path to the waters below, to escape.\n\n[h3]Rewards[/h3]\nBecoming friendly with the Bloodsail Buccaneers will grant you access to the following items:\n\n[ul]\n[li][item=12185] - Summons a [npc=11236][/li]\n[li][item=22742][/li]\n[li][item=22743][/li]\n[li][item=22745][/li]\n[/ul]\n\nYou will need Honored with the Bloodsail Buccaneers for [achievement=2336].',NULL),(8,92,0,'[b]Gelkis[/b] are a tribe of centaur who have made their home in the southmost parts of [zone=405].

When their brother tribe of Gelkis centaur spoke out against this notion, arguing that Theradras always watches over the centaur and will keep the tribes safe and alive, an eternal feud between the two tribes was born. \n\nThe life-long pursuit of strength has carried on through the Khans of Magram to this day, turning them violent and determined. To solidify their title as the strongest the tribe still fights fiercely to weaken or destroy their brother clans, viewing the Kolkar as weak, the Gelkis as nothing more than a nuisance, and the Maraudine as a formidable enemy. \n\nIt can be assumed that the Magram’s culture has developed into revolving around strength worship above all else. When compared to the Gelkis, the Magram hold very primitive forms of speech and social structure.

Over time two distinct troll empires emerged - the Amani and the Gurubashi. They existed for thousands of years until the coming of the Night Elves, who warred with them and eventually drove both empires into exile. \n\nFollowing the Great Sundering, the defeated Gurubashi grew ever more desperate to eke out a living. Searching for a means to survive, they enlisted the aid of the savage [npc=14834], also known as the Soulflayer. Hakkar grew into a merciless oppressor who demanded daily sacrifices from his devotees, and so in time the Gurubashi turned on their dark master. The strongest tribes (including the Zandalar) banded together to defeat Hakkar and his loyal troll priests, the Atal\'ai. The united tribes narrowly defeated the Blood God and cast out the Atal\'ai... despite their victory, however, the Gurubashi Empire soon fell. \n\nIn recent years the exiled Atal\'ai priests have discovered that Hakkar\'s physical form can only be summoned within the ancient and once-deserted capital of the Gurubashi Empire, Zul\'Gurub. Unfortunately, the priests have met with success in their quest to call forth Hakkar—reports confirm the presence of the dreaded Soulflayer in the heart of the ruins. \n\nAnd so the Zandalar tribe has arrived on the shores of Azeroth to battle Hakkar once again. But the Blood God has grown increasingly powerful, bending several tribes to his will and even commanding the avatars of the Primal Gods— Bat, Panther, Tiger, Spider and Snake. With the tribes splintered, the Zandalarians have been forced to recruit champions from Azeroth\'s varied and disparate races to battle, and hopefully once again defeat, the Soulflayer.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nReputation with the Zandalar Tribe is gained from killing trash and bosses in Zul\'Gurub as well as repeatable and special quests which require instance-dropped items to complete. Each full run of Zul\'Gurub gives approximately 2,500-3,000 reputation.\n\nBefore the Burning Crusade, the main reason for gaining reputation with the tribe were the [url=?items=0.6&filter=na=Zandalar]shoulder[/url], [url=?items=0.6&filter=minrl=60;maxrl=60;cr=18:107;crs=4:0;crv=0:to+a+leg+or+head+slot+item]head and leg[/url] slot item enchants.

Rising out of the northern [zone=440] desert like an oasis, Gadgetzan is the headquarters of the Steamwheedle Cartel, the largest of the Goblin Cartels. The Goblins believe in profit above loyalty, thus Gadgetzan is considered neutral territory in the Horde/Alliance conflict.\n\n[h3]History[/h3]\nAlthough the goblins\' neutrality is almost universally acknowledged, there are still those who seek to sow chaos and anarchy. For Gadgetzan, this comes in the form of the Wastewander bandits, a gang of miscreants who have occupied the Waterspring Field and Noonshade Ruins of northeast Tanaris. Few goblins care about ancient ruins (unless they have treasure) – for all they care, the bandits can have the old blocks of stone. \n\nHowever, the Waterspring Field is vital to the goblins\' survival in the desert, providing them with the liquid gold of the desert. Water towers out in the field were constructed under the blazing heat of the desert sun by the backbreaking work of their slaves, and by Az, the goblins aren\'t going to give up their hard earned towers that easily. However, the Bruisers need to stay in town to keep the gnomes\' collective Napoleonic-complex from getting out of hand and to stop the seemingly endless dueling among the various visitors from disrupting business.

It is a city of entertainment and trade, where anything that anyone would ever want to buy — and plenty of things that no one ever wants to buy — is on sale.\n\nRatchet is currently run by a corporate group known as the Steamwheedle Cartel a splinter group from the Venture Company, who first built the port town for trading with [zone=1637]. It is initially a neutral faction to both Horde and Alliance. A ferry conveniently connects Ratchet to Booty Bay.\n\n[h3]History[/h3]\nBuilt from equal parts of industry and decadence, the goblin port city of Ratchet sprawls along nearly a mile of of coastline where the eastern Barrens poke between [zone=14] and the [zone=15] to the sea. Ratchet is the pride of the goblins, a trade city where you can find almost anything your heart desires - and if something is not in stock, you can bet the goblins can order it. Ratchet also had regular ferries that traversed the safe though roundabout route to the island stronghold of Theramore to the south.\n\nRatchet is a city where creatures who were once the butt of jokes now reign supreme. Its streets wander without rhyme or reason through neighborhoods dedicated to one activity: commerce. Ramshackle warehouses stand next to stately stone homes. Fine shops press cheek to jowl with rude huts. Wares of every type imaginable - and some beyond the imagination - are on display in markets and in exclusive boutiques.\n\nGoblins welcome anyone with gold or items of value and a willingness to trade them for their wares and services. Merchants throng the marketplaces each day, selling everything from silks to slaves, and even at night the stores lining the twisting streets and alleys remain open for business. Those with the money can listen to skilled musicians while drinking fine ales and eating food prepared by expert chefs. For those with earthier tastes, the streets along the wharf teem with whorehouses, taprooms, and casinos.\n\nRatchet is the largest port on Kalimdor, with as many ships bringing cargo in as there are ships heading out for other sites around Kalimdor. In addition to legitimate trade vessels, pirate craft receive amnesty while in the port of Ratchet as long as they can pay the stiff docking fees. This situation makes many merchant captains furious, but they cannot hope to stay in business if they boycott Ratchet. Moreover, the Lawkeepers and hired mercenaries prowling the waterfront are eager to deal with anyone looking to cause trouble.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nMost of the quests to raise reputation with Ratchet and the Steamwheedle Cartel are located in the Barrens.

The Wildhammer Clan was unsuccessful in wresting control of [zone=1537] from the Bronzebeard and Dark Iron clans. Khardros and his Wildhammer warriors traveled north through the barrier gates of Dun Algaz, and founded their own kingdom within the distant peak of Grim Batol. There, the Wildhammers thrived and rebuilt their stores of treasure.\n\n[npc=9019] and his Dark Irons vowed revenge against Ironforge. Thaurissan and his sorceress wife, Modgud, launched a two-pronged assault against both Ironforge and Grim Batol. As Modgud confronted the enemy warriors, she used her powers to strike fear into their hearts. Shadows moved at her command, and dark things crawled up from the depths of the earth to stalk the Wildhammers in their own halls. Eventually Modgud broke through the gates and laid siege to the fortress itself. The Wildhammers fought desperately, Khardros himself wading through the roiling masses to slay the sorceress queen. With their queen lost, the Dark Irons fled before the fury of the Wildhammers.\n\nOnce the immediate Dark Iron threat was eliminated, the Wildhammers returned home to Grim Batol. However, the death of the Modgud had left an evil stain on the mountain fortress, and the Wildhammers found it uninhabitable. Khardros took his people north towards the lands of Lordaeron. Settling within the mountainous region of the Aerie Peaks and The Hinterlands, and lush forests of Northeron, the Wildhammers crafted the city of Aerie Peak, where the Wildhammers grew closer to nature and even bonded with the mighty gryphons of the area. Over time they started calling their land the Hinterlands. \n\n[b]Modern Wildhammers[/b]\nThe Wildhammer Clan currently makes its home at Aerie Peak in the Hinterlands. The most immediate threat to their security comes from the east in the form of the Witherbark Trolls and Vilebranch Trolls.

The gains row calculates the minimum values of all stats that appear in any group in the item comparison.

The gains row displays nothing for the items which have 50 stamina, +23 sta for the item with 73 stamina, and +27 sta for the items with 77 stamina.\r\n\r\nBasically, the gains row removes the shared stats between all groups so that you can focus on what each group brings to the table.\r\n\r\n[h3]Focus Group[/h3]\r\n\r\n[screenshot url=STATIC_URL/images/help/item-comparison/focus2.gif thumb=STATIC_URL/images/help/item-comparison/focus.gif float=right]Comparing arena sets of the first four PvP\r\nseasons using a focus group.[/screenshot]Setting a focus group is done by clicking on the eye icon in the group\'s control bar. Selecting a group as your focus will update the display of the item comparison to show the difference in stats between all other groups and the focus group.\r\n\r\nWhen a focus is set, the focus group is highlighted and each other group has numbers that indicate the stats gained or lost in comparison to the focus group.\r\n\r\n[b][color=q2]Positive[/color][/b] numbers indicate that group has a higher total for a given stat than the focus group, while [b][color=q10]negative[/color][/b] numbers indicate that group has a lower total for a given stat than the focus group. \r\n\r\n[h3]Stat Weighting[/h3]\r\nTo add a weight scale to your comparison, click on the [b]Add a weight scale[/b] link in the top right corner. You may select a weight scale from our predefined presets or create one of your own.

You may add as many weight scales as you like.\r\n\r\nTo remove a weight scale, click on the [b]X[/b] next to the appropriate score in any group. To toggle between normalized (default), raw, and percent score mode, click on the score in any group.\r\n\r\nUnlike the weighted item search, these weight scales [b]do not[/b] automatically select gems or include socket bonuses in the score at this time.\r\n\r\n[h3]Viewing a Group in 3D[/h3]\r\nClick on [b]View in 3D[/b] in the menu dropdown of the group\'s control bar to display a 3D model of the items and select the race and gender to display them on. Of course, items which do not have models, such as trinkets and rings, will not be displayed.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[/tabs]',NULL),(-13,3,0,'[menu tab=2 path=2,13,3]Can\'t find the answer you were looking for? Just [url=/?aboutus#contact]contact us[/url], or post on our [url=/?forums&board=1]forums[/url]! \r\n\r\n[pad]\r\n\r\n[tabs name=weights]\r\n\r\n[tab name=FAQ]\r\n\r\n[h3]How do weights work?[/h3]\r\nThe weighting system allows you to give a weight value to attributes that matter to you and applies your ratings to items in your search results. Each weight value is multiplied by an item\'s stat points and then added together to get the item\'s total score. This score is used to sort the results and display the highest scoring items.\r\n\r\nIf you decide that spell damage is worth twice as much as spell crit, you could add the weights as 2 and 1, 100 and 50, or any other numbers with the same ratio.\r\n\r\nPlease note that weights only work for [url=/?items=4]Armor[/url], [url=/?items=2]Weapons[/url], [url=/?items=3]Gems[/url] and [url=/?items=0]Consumables[/url]. \r\n[h3]What is the difference between weights and equivalency?[/h3]\r\nThe equivalency of two attributes describes how much one equals the other. You may find equivalency ratings that say something like 1 agility = 1.5 strength. This is [b]not[/b] the same as weight values; in fact, it\'s the exact opposite! Equivalency describes the ratio of the stats to each other, which can be used to derive the stat weights. In this example, an appropriate set of weights might be agility 3 and strength 2; this works out to agility being [i]1.5 times as valuable[/i] as strength. \r\n[h3]Is there a way to save a template that I have created?[/h3]\r\nThere sure is! You can save your stat weighting scales by going to the \'Preset\' dropdown menu, selecting \'custom,\' and then filling in your own weights. After you\'ve modified them to your liking, you can hit \'Save\' to give them a name so they can be used for future searches as well.\r\n\r\nWeights also carry over from one item list to another if you use the database menu, so going from a [url=/?items=2&filter=wt=51:48:49;wtv=83:67:58]weighted list of weapons[/url] to the [url=/?items=4&filter=wt=51:48:49;wtv=83:67:58]cloth armor listing[/url] will also maintain your current weight scale. \r\n[h3]Is it better to match sockets and gain the socket bonus, or use the best gems?[/h3]\r\nThe weighting system answers this for you automatically. It compares the score of matching gems plus the score of the socket bonus, to the score of the best gems it could put in that item. It will automatically put in the gems that result in the highest net rating, taking socket bonuses into account. When the socket colors are matched, the socket bonus text will be listed below the gems for each item. \r\n\r\n[h3]What are the default weight presets based on?[/h3]\r\nWe\'ve done a great deal of research, tracking down equivalence points for all of the classes.

They provided the inspiration for the weighted search and a starting point for our preset values.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=\"Helpful tips\"]\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You can help us [b]improve[/b] our presets! Email your suggestions to [feedback].[/li]\r\n[li]Don\'t weight stats that your character is [b]already capped on[/b] (e.g. Hit rating).

Then, if you browse around on other pages using the menus at the top, your weight scale will be applied to that page as well.[/li]\r\n[/ul]\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=Why?]\r\n\r\n[h3]Why does it give a higher score to 2H weapons over 1H weapons, when using a 1H + OH is better?[/h3]\r\nThe scores are based off the stat weights of the item by itself. Two-handers rank higher because by themselves they do have better stats than a one-hander with nothing else in the off hand. If you add up the scores of a main hand and off hand item, the total score is what you should use to compare to that of a two-hander. We do not assume a score for your offhand item, as there is no way of knowing what you have or can obtain for that slot unless you do a weighted search for it. \r\n[h3]Why does the preset list X as more important than Y?[/h3]\r\nSome attributes come in unusual value ranges on items, which affects their equivalency to other stats. It does not mean that your should focus on or ignore that stat, but that a single point of it is worth more or less compared to other stats. Stats with high number ranges (armor, weapon damage, penetration, etc) will require smaller weight values, while stats with low number ranges (mana regeneration) will require much larger weight values.\r\n\r\nIn essence, giving mana regeneration a score of 100 and healing a score of 25 does [b]not[/b] say that mana regeneration is more important than healing, simply that each point of mana regeneration is the equivalent of 4 points of healing.\r\n[h3]Why don\'t you have a preset for PvP/Tier 6 Raiding/...? Why doesn\'t your preset give a stat value for X?[/h3]\r\nIf you would like to suggest changes to the existing presets or new presets for other specs or situations, please do so to [feedback]. \r\n[h3]Why doesn\'t the preset limit the items to X, Y, and Z?[/h3]\r\nThe weight presets are for sorting; filters are for limiting the search results. If you want to restrict the items you see, use the appropriate tool - the filter options. The only limit applied by the weight scales is that it will not display items with a score of 0 or less. You should continue to use the existing filtering system if you want to see items of a specific type, slot, source, speed, etc.\r\n[h3]Why does it suggest the gems it does for the sockets?[/h3]\r\nThe suggested gems are based on your weights. If you would like to see a different gem in the sockets, try increasing the weight of the appropriate stat. If you feel the weights in the presets need to be adjusted, please let us know at [feedback].\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[/tabs]',NULL),(-13,2,0,'[menu tab=2 path=2,13,2]\r\n\r\nWe thrive on user contributions!

It should showcase the main object, but take into account the details around it. The same 7 elements of art design come into play here, Line, Shape, Form, Space, Texture, Light & Color. We\'ll touch on several of these and how to make use of the in game settings and mechanics to enhance your pictures.\r\n\r\nTurn your resolution and color sampling as high as your computer can handle. Turn on all the image effects and details, but turn down the weather effects to the lowest setting. In general you want all your glow and spell effects maxed to really show the environment to its fullest potential (they actually help with the lighting too!) You may find a shot that you need to play with these settings to enhance, sometimes turning down environmental detail is helpful to remove extra grasses.\r\n\r\nWorld of Warcraft actually has an internal setting for screenshot quality, and by default that quality is set to [b]3/10[/b]. You can turn this up, though, in order to take higher quality screenshots. In order to do so, type this command into your chatbox:\r\n\r\n[code]/console screenshotQuality 10[/code]\r\n\r\nMost of the time taking the pictures from 1st person view works best, so zoom all the way in so that you\'re looking through your character\'s eyes. Occasionally the object might be too big (large NPCs especially) to use this view - if this is the case get as close to them as you can without having your body in the shot and swing the camera around to get the angle that you\'re looking for.\r\n\r\nPay attention to the light - a well lit picture is 10 times better than a dark one. You may even want to do a little color correcting before uploading - increase the brightness and contrast a touch. For instance - it\'s a lot easier to take pictures in sunny Stormwind than deep in the mountains of torch lit Ironforge. Daytime pictures also turn out better than night.\r\n\r\n[h3]Featuring Armor[/h3]\r\n\r\n[screenshot url=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/armor.jpg thumb=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/armor2.jpg float=right]Dreamwalker Spaulders[/screenshot]We want to see the armor! Not Joe Schmoe in the armor. In general you want close ups of the piece itself (except for full set pictures). Don\'t be afraid to submit a 4 inch picture of one glove. Once\'s it\'s cropped and loaded and shrunk down to the thumbnail it will look great!\r\n\r\nUse your best judgment when cropping armor pics, but remember - we want to see details of the armor - not the person or a far away image. Of course, this also applies to weapons or any other piece of equipment!\r\n\r\n[h3]Featuring NPCs[/h3]\r\n\r\n[screenshot url=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/npc.jpg thumb=STATIC_URL/images/help/screenshots/npc2.jpg float=right]Cairne Bloodhoof [/screenshot]Full body shots should be the norm. If you can\'t get a good full shot (e.g. they\'re standing behind a counter) get the waist up shot. There\'s no need to include the on-screen text and titles of NPCs. The website already lists those, so just get in close and take a great shot of the NPC itself.\r\n\r\nGet down on their level - you may need to \"/sit\" or even \"/sleep\" to get a good view of something low to the ground (scorpions, boots, spiders, etc.)\r\n\r\nWhen capturing moving NPCs, try to get as much a head on front shot as you can, being willing to take a few hits while you take picture of a mob attacking you can make for a great shot. If you don\'t want to get your hands dirty, sitting in place for a while and waiting for it to path in front of you is often easier and faster than running around it trying to get your shot.\r\n\r\nTalking to friendly NPCs will usually make them face you - you can then spin around and get the best background for your picture.

The reputations, achievements, and raid progress information will be removed.[/i]\r\n\r\n[h3]Managing Profiles[/h3]\r\nIn the upper right are a number of useful buttons for managing profiles without having to go back to your user page. Each of the buttons have several options that can be used to manage the character\'s page you are currently on and include the following options.\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li][b]Custom Profile[/b]\r\n[ul][li][b]New[/b] – This is a quick link to creating a new, blank profile from scratch. It will open in a new window so you do not lose your current profile. This option is always available.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Save[/b] – Save any changes you have made to this profile. This option is only available for logged in users on profiles they own.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Save as[/b] – This will let you save your current changes under a new name. It is extremely useful for making copies of profiles! This option is only available for logged in users.[/li][/ul][/li]\r\n[li][b]Manage Character[/b]\r\n[ul][li][b]Resync[/b] – Request that the character be updated from the armory; it will be added to the queue. This option is only available on Armory character pages.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Claim character[/b] – Adds an Armory character to your user page. This is a good thing to do with all your alts. This option is only available for logged in users on Armory character pages.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Remove[/b] - Removes the character from your user page. Use this if you no longer play the character or have long since deleted it.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Pin/Unpin[/b] - Pin one of your characters so you can perform personalized searches throughout the database for missing or completed quests, achievements, recipes and more![/li]\r\n[/ul][/li]\r\n[/ul]\r\n\r\n[h3]From the User Page[/h3]\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/userpage.gif float=right]All of your claimed Armory characters and custom profiles are listed in one convenient place on your user page. From the [b]Characters[/b] tab you can remove one or more claimed characters. The [b]Profiles[/b] tab allows you to create a new profile, delete profiles, or change the visibility settings of profiles. Your private profiles will not be visible to anyone else.\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: When you are logged in, all of your characters and custom profiles can be accessed from the [b]My profiles[/b] menu at the top right of any page![/i][pad]\r\n[h3]Saving Your Work[/h3]\r\nAny profile can be edited, even if you don\'t own it, but you\'ll probably want to save your work when you\'re done! You must have an account with us in order to save a profile. Once you\'ve created an account, you can bookmark any number of Armory characters and save up to 10 custom profiles. Premium users will be able to create even more, so upgrade if 10 just isn\'t enough! You can use the red buttons to save a profile from its page, and manage your existing profiles and characters from your user page. \r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=\"Inventory and talents\"]\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/character.jpg height=300 float=right]The main tab for a profile is the character inventory, which includes a lot of the same information you would see by looking at your character pane in game. This tab is broken up into four key sections - the character view, quick facts box, statistics, and gear summary.\r\n\r\n[h3]Character View[/h3]\r\nThe first thing you\'ll notice, of course, is your character – as rendered by our custom built modelviewer, in all it\'s three-dimensional glory. You can turn the character with your mouse, and zoom in and out using the A and Z keys, just like the modelviewer elsewhere in the site. [b]We even pull your face, hair, and skin color information from the Armory![/b]\r\n\r\nOn either side of the character are inventory icons which you can right click on for a menu of options:\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: You can remove a gem or enchant by clicking None in the picker window or by right clicking on it in the gear summary.[/i]\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/itemmenu.gif float=right][b]Equip... / Replace...[/b] – Selecting this option will give you a quick search box in which you can type an item\'s name. Click on the item or hit return to equip it.\r\nUnequip – Unequips the item, of course. :)[/li]\r\n[li][b]Add / Replace enchant...[/b] – The spell icon on the left shows if the item is enchanted. This opens a customized picker window with all enchants available for the item slot.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Add / Replace gem...[/b] – The icon on the left shows the socket color or socketed gem. Like the enchants, this opens a picker window with valid gems for the socket.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Extra socket[/b] – The check mark on the left indicates if a blacksmithing socket has been added to this item. Click to toggle on or off.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Clear Enhancements[/b] - This will remove all reforges, enchantments, gems and extra sockets from an item. Useful if you want to start fresh with an item.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Display on character[/b] – The checkmark on the left indicates if the item is displayed on the model. Click to toggle on or off – it works for more than just cloaks and helms![/li]\r\n[li][b]Compare[/b] – Adds the item to the [url=/?compare]item comparison tool[/url] and opens it in a new window to compare with other items.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Find upgrades[/b] – Uses our [url=/?help=stat-weighting]weighted search[/url] to find upgrades based on your talent spec.[/li]\r\n[li][b]Who wears this?[/b] – Creates a filtered list of other Armory characters who are also wearing the item.[/li]\r\n[/ul]\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: Items that can take enchantments but have no enchantment, or which have empty sockets, will even have a little notification in the tooltip![/i]\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/quickfacts.gif float=right][h3]Quick Facts Box[/h3]\r\nOn the right hand side is a handy Quick Facts box that displays basic, defining information about a profile. This box is chock full of useful information, including talent spec, achievement points, and professions.\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: Any raid icon that\'s ringed in [color=c4]gold[/color] is a raid that the character has cleared![/i]\r\n[h3]Statistics[/h3]\r\nYou\'ll also notice that all of a profile\'s statistics are laid out beneath the character view. This is also all information you can get from the Armory (and then some), but we lay it out in a nice, convenient page so you can view it all at once – no more messing with drop down menus. You can also click on a statistic and expand it so you can see its tooltip information right there on the page—or click on the header to expand all the related statistics. Your statistics are updated as you edit any part of a profile, including race, class, level, items, enhancements, or talents – all in real time! [b]Statistic modifications from glyphs and buffs are not presently supported, but will be in the future.[/b]\r\n\r\n[i]Note: These statistics are calculated manually – they are not pulled from the Armory. Statistics calculations are still in beta and will ironed out as we go.[/i]\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/statistics.gif float=center]\r\n\r\n[h3]Gear Summary[/h3]\r\n[div float=right align=right][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/gearsummary.gif]\r\n[small]A warning message is displayed for missing enhancements.[/small][/div]Last on the character inventory tab, but not least, is the gear summary. This is a personalized list of all items worn by the character, with convenient column headers and in line filtering options. Use it to see where most of a character\'s items come from, what is the best and worst piece, and whether or not there are missing gems and enchants. Just in case the empty icons aren\'t clear enough, a warning appears at the top of the list if a character is missing gems, enchants, or blacksmith sockets. This [color=q10]warning[/color] is based on the professions of the character if it is an Armory profile, and otherwise shows you everything missing on custom profiles.\r\n\r\nThe gems and enchants can also be edited from within the gear summary, and have a few additional options not available in the character view. You can remove or replace an enhancement from here, and you can find upgrades using our [url=/?help=stat-weighting]weighted search[/url] – just like items!\r\n\r\n[h3]Talents[/h3]\r\nThe talents tab includes an inline version of our [url=/?talent]talent calculator[/url] with a full display of a character\'s talents. It is locked by default, but you can unlock it to begin editing talents, just as you would normally. There are two extra features in the Profiler\'s talent calculator: you can store and swap between two specs for each character, and export the current talent build to the calculator to link to your friends. When you change your talents (or swap between specs) your gear score and statistics will be updates real time!\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=\"Other tabs\"]\r\n\r\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\r\nThe reputation tab displays the complete faction information of an Armory character, with collapsible headers for each section. Its much easier to read than the tiny faction pane in game! Of course, you can link directly to the faction\'s page to get more information about that faction. \r\n[h3][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/achievements.gif float=right]Achievements[/h3]\r\nThe achievements tab lists an Armory character\'s progress in each of the main achievement categories, and has a filterable list of achievements including date completed. All of the normal column and list filters are available, along with some new ones! You can filter the list by earned, in progress or complete achievements – complete are displayed by default – or click on any of the category progress bars to only display achievements from that category.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=Completion_Tracker]\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/quests.jpg float=right width=450]You can use the Profiler\'s [b]Completion Tracker[/b] feature to keep track of your quests, achievements, pets, mounts, recipes, and more!\r\n\r\n[h3]Getting Started[/h3]\r\n\r\nIn order to start tracking your completion data, all you need to do is visit your character\'s page on the profiler and resync it. This will automatically collect data about your character\'s completed achievements, companion pets, mounts, quests, recipes, reputations and titles.\r\n\r\n[h3][img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/completion.jpg float=right]Tracking Your Completion Data[/h3]\r\n\r\nOnce you\'ve got your data up on the site, it will be available in the form of five new tabs: [b]mounts[/b], [b]companions[/b], [b]recipes[/b], [b]quests[/b], and [b]titles[/b].\r\n\r\nIf you open the mounts, companions, or titles tabs, you\'ll immediately be greeted by a list of all the entries you\'ve already completed. You can cycle through the different tabs to see the ones you already have, the ones you still have yet to collect, a complete list, or a list of just the ones you\'ve \"excluded\" (more on that shortly). You can also use the \"Search within results\" box to search the list based on a keyword, just like you can with other search results in the database.\r\n\r\nThe recipe, and quest tabs, like the Achievements tab, contain more entries—so you\'ll be presented with a box like the one shown above. From there, all you have to do is click one of the progress bars to see the complete tabbed list in each category.\r\n\r\n[h3]Exclusions[/h3]\r\n\r\nWhen you\'re trying to make sure we check off every quest, achievement, or mount on our list, everyone knows that there are some that you just don\'t want to bother with. To that end, we\'ve created [b]exclusions[/b].\r\n\r\n[img src=STATIC_URL/images/help/profiler/exclusions.jpg float=right]Using exclusions, you can flag certain quests, mounts, achievements, recipes, pets, or titles that \"don\'t count\" toward your completion total. When you exclude (for example) a quest, that quest no longer appears in \"incomplete\" listings, and the total number of quests in that category is reduced by one.\r\n\r\n[b]For example:[/b] There are 632 quests in the \"Eastern Kingdoms\" category. If I were to decide that [quest=367] is for noobs and I don\'t want to count it, then all I have to do is put a check in the box next to the quest and click \"Exclude\". After I do so, the Eastern Kingdoms progress bar will only show [i]631[/i] quests total—the remaining quest will appear in the \"Excluded\" tab but won\'t be counted for anything else.\r\n\r\nIf you want to re-include a quest, just go to the \"Excluded\" tab and then use the checkboxes to restore as many as you like. You can do the same thing for achievements, titles, mounts, pets, or recipes.\r\n\r\nIf you [b]complete[/b] a quest that you have excluded, it will show in the progress bar as a [b]+1[/b]. Example: If there are 31 quests in the \"Miscellaneous\" category, and I\'ve completed 20 quests and excluded 1, the progress bar will show [b]20/30[/b]. If I have completed [i]the quest that I excluded[/i], then the progress bar will show [b]20(+1)/30[/b]. If I then go on to complete ALL the quests in that category (including the one I excluded), the progress bar will show [b]30(+1)/30[/b].\r\n\r\n[b]Exclusion Manager[/b]\r\nThe companions and mounts tabs let you manage your exclusions en masse with the Exclusion Manager. Just click the \"Manage Exclusions\" button on top of the tabs to see a list of convenient categories you might want to exclude. There\'s also a \"reset all\" button here to let you wipe all of your exclusions and start over.\r\n\r\n[b]Note:[/b] The Exclusion Manager is currently only available for companions and mounts.\r\n\r\n[i]Tip: Exclusions are tied to your account, not to a particular character. This is so even when you look at someone else\'s character, you\'re judging them by [/i]your[i] completion standards, not anyone else\'s![/i] \r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab name=Calculations]\r\n\r\nMost of the information we display is pretty straightforward. A lot of it, particularly the stats on items, is readily available in our database and on various tooltips. There are some new numbers on profile pages that you may ask, what does this number mean? How was it calculated?\r\n[h3]Base Statistics[/h3]\r\nA character\'s five base statistics are determined primarily by his or her class and level. This base amount has a modifier applied to it depending on the character\'s race. We gathered an extensive amount of data from the armory to come up with these base numbers, using untalented individuals of every race, class, and level combination. Because racial modifiers are consistent, we are able to create statistics for \"fake\" race and class combos using the data we already know. However, the Armory does not give data on characters below level 10 or Death Knights below level 55, so we have no statistic information for these profiles. To simplify things, we have set a minimum level for custom profiles based on the available statistics.\r\n[h3]Gear Score[/h3]\r\nOkay, so a lot of sites have gear scores. Most of them (ours included) are based around the [url=http://www.wowwiki.com/Item_level]item budget[/url] Blizzard uses to determine how much of each stat can be on an item. This budget is calculated using the item\'s level, quality, and slot, and we use the budget as the item\'s gear score. You can view a complete breakdown of an item\'s gear score by mousing over it in the [url=/?help=profiler#profiler-inventory-and-talents]gear summary[/url] at the bottom of the character tab. You can view a breakdown of a profile\'s total gear score by mousing over it in the Quick Facts box, also on the character tab.\r\n\r\nEach gear score is color coded based on the item levels of the gear in reference to the character level. [b][color=q0]Grey[/color][/b] for poor, [b][color=q1]White[/color][/b] for common, [b][color=q2]Green[/color][/b] for uncommon, [b][color=q3]Blue[/color][/b] for rare, [b][color=q4]Purple[/color][/b] for epic and [b][color=q5]Orange[/color][/b] for legendary. For example, a level 70 character wearing high item-level, raiding epics from [zone=3606] and [zone=3959] will have a purple-colored gearscore, as their items are considerably \"epic\" quality for their level. However, the same character at 80, if wearing this same gear, will have the gearscore colored blue as the items are of lower-than-optimal quality for their level.\r\n\r\nThe value of an empty socket was generated using the gear score of appropriate gems for the item in question, and subtracted from the item\'s score. This allows us to score unsocketed items lower than an item without sockets of the same level, quality, and slot. Items with better than expected gems will receive higher scores, and items with lower quality gems (or no gems at all) will receive lower scores.\r\n\r\nThe values of enchants are based off of the level of the enchantment. Endgame enchantments are 20 points, profession perks are 40 points, etc. The numbers go down from there.\r\n\r\nYou may notice that some profiles have different gear scores for the same item. There is an extreme difference in budget between a two-handed or one-handed weapon, which causes a discrepancy in scores between characters who should be fairly equal according to the level of their gear. To address this, the gear score of weapons has been normalized so that a character with appropriate weapon choices has the equivalent score of two two-handed weapons. Appropriate weapons are determined by your class and spec; for example, an enhancement shaman should dual wield one handed weapons, a protection warrior should have a one-hander and shield, etc. For classes which the melee weapons don\'t really matter – like hunters or spellcasters – anything they can use is considered appropriate.\r\n\r\n[i]Note: Gear score does not take into account the stats of the item. It is a measurement of quality of gear, not whether the stats on the gear are suited to the character\'s spec.[/i]\r\n\r\n[h3]Guild Scores[/h3]\r\nGuild gear scores and achievement points are derived using a weighted average of all of the known characters in that guild. Guilds with at least 25 level 80 players receive full benefit of the top 25 characters\' gear scores, while guilds with at least 10 level 80 characters receive a slight penalty, at least 1 level 80 a moderate penalty, and no level 80 characters a severe penalty. This is to prevent small guilds and bank alts from appearing to have higher scores than legitimate raiding guilds. Instead of being based on level, achievement point averages are based around 1,500 points, but the same penalties apply.\r\n\r\n[/tab]\r\n\r\n[/tabs]',NULL),(8,577,0,'[minibox]\n[h2]Steamwheedle Cartel[/h2]\n[faction=21]\n[faction=577]\n[faction=369]\n[b]Everlook[/b]\n[/minibox]\n\n[b]Everlook[/b], the faction of the town Everlook, is a trading post is run by the goblins of the Steamwheedle Cartel.

It is run by goblins as a trading post and is officially neutral to all races and factions. Even so, pilgrims allowed to venture up to the World Tree stop here, but otherwise this is the highest that merchants and explorers may venture without the night elves’ permission. Everlook would offer a commanding view of Kalimdor, if it were not at such a high altitude that clouds constantly shroud the mountain’s lower flanks.\n\nEverlook is the only major goblin outpost in northern Kalimdor, and it serves several purposes. First, it serves as the base of operations for goblin thorium and arcanite miners since Winterspring has some of the few untapped veins of those materials on the continent. Second, it serves as a center of trade between the Alliance and the Horde. While Everlook is hardly as safe as Moonglade, generally the Alliance and the Horde treat each other fairly well there. Additionally, Everlook is a frequent stop-off and resupply point for the faithful who make the pilgrimage through Winterspring to Hyjal Summit.\n\n[h3]Reputation[/h3]\nReputation for Everlook and the Steamwheedle Cartel is mostly gained from quests in Winterspring.

The Convocation of Silvermoon (also known as \"The Silvermoon Council\"), the ruling body of the high elves was also based here. Across a stretch of ocean to the north is the island that contains the Sunwell.[pad]Although Silvermoon itself was left relatively unscathed from the second war, in the third war the Death Knight Arthas led the Scourge into the city, attacking it on his quest to reach the Sunwell. The High Elven King was slain and the majority of the population killed. Scourge forces held the city for a time but abandoned it after the depleting of its resources.[pad]Though the city was attacked by the Scourge, it is not as destroyed as one might think. Though many of its plants are dead, and the occasional dead body is sprawled across the cobblestone, the city was immune to the fire and destruction. Silvermoon now resembles a ghost town, intact, but eerily abandoned.

Much like the Circle, it is a coalition of night elf and tauren forces. Since the opening of the Dark Portal, the Cenarion Expedition has quickly gained in size and autonomy, achieving enough power to be considered its own faction. The Expedition maintains its primary base at Cenarion Refuge in [zone=3521]; it has also made its presence known on [zone=3483], in [zone=3519], and in the [zone=3522]. Cenarion Refuge is located immediately west of Thornfang Hill.\n\nThe Refuge is located in the Zangarmarsh for the primary reason of studying the rich wildlife located there. However, the Expedition has discovered troubling goings-on in the marsh. Water levels in many parts of Zangarmarsh are decreasing, and some areas such as the Dead Mire have already suffered greatly from this strange phenomenon. It has become known that this decrease in the water levels can be attributed to pumps that have been constructed in the Marsh by the naga.

However, the Expedition cannot afford direct confrontation with the naga so numerous in the Zangarmarsh and [url=?search=coilfang#c0z]Coilfang Reservoir[/url].
