WoW Rookie: Finding information about the game and Cataclysm
New around here? WoW Rookie has your back! Get all our collected tips, tricks and tactics for new players in the WoW Rookie Guide. At the WoW Insider reader meetup we threw at BlizzCon 2010, I was asked a simple question. "Mike," an eager attendee asked me, "what the best way to get caught up on the information for Cataclysm?" I was obviously a bit surprised, but the question resonated for me. After all, in a lot of ways, Cataclysm is completely rewriting the world as we know it. Classes are changing, talent trees are changing, and there will be a whole series of new raid bosses. Of course, none of these are things that we haven't encountered before in previous expansions. But then again, even the landscape of Azeroth is going to be irrevocably changed, scarred by the passage of Deathwing. Things will never be the same again. So if you're new to the game or even returning from a hiatus, it must feel like an immense amount of information to try and understand. Even more, once you've logged into the game and started playing, you need resources at your fingertips to understand what's happening around you. So this week in WoW Rookie, we're going to take the time to talk about where you can go to get information.
