Create a Character
When you are ready to create characters in World of Warcraft, there are four factors involved:
1. Race
2. Class
3. Name
4. Gender
You know that there are Alliance and Horde in WoW and so there will two groups of races.
Tips: There is limitations to interact between Alliance and Horde characters outside battle so it is best if your friends and you choose the same group whether all choose to be Alliance or Horde so that your characters can interact with each other.
The races that reside on Alliance that are playable in World of Warcraft:
1. Exodar Draenei
2. Ironforge Dwarves
3. Gnomes
4. Stormwind Humans
5. Night Elves
The races that reside on Horde that are playable in World of Warcraft:
1. Blood Elves
2. Forsaken Undead
3. Durotar Orcs
4. Tauren
5. Darkspear Trolls
It is very difficult to choose the right class for first timer but once you have played up to a few levels then you will be able to get an idea of what it’s like to play at each class. To save time, you can read up about the class and decide.
Picking the right name for your characters is a tough job. You will need to pick a name that will reflect you as a serious player and not amateur. You will need to remember to pick a name that is easy to type and easy to remember. If you still have troubles finding the right name, try out these online tools:
1. Stratics.com WoW Name Generator
2. Xenoveritas.org random name generator
Of course you can choose your character’s gender between male and female. It is advised to choose according to your own gender although some people choose the other way round but just remember not to judge a person’s gender by his or her appearance.

How To Pick A Server
Are you new to World of Warcraft? I am sure you can’t wait to master the game but take one step at a time and I am sure you can play like a pro soon. So what are the questions on your mind? I am sure there are many questions but no worries, you will learn everything you need to know as a newbie in WoW.
Picking the server to host your game can be tricky. There are many factors you need to consider before making your choice. The most important is to make a choice you will never regret but often that is extremely difficult so the key is to get as much information that can help you to decide on which server you want and suitable for you.
First of all, you need to know where your friends are playing. Although there is no guarantee that you will be able to meet with your friend’s character but there is a possibility to meet in the PvP Battlegrounds. Be reminded that you can create different characters on different servers but the characters can never support each other. You have the option to transfer your character to another server for a fee of $25 but you can only do it once a month for each characters. You can transfer a character from a PvP to PvP or PvE to PvE. You can also transfer from PvP to PvE but not vice versa.
Then you need to sort out the time zone. If you pick a server which has similar time zone as your location, it is likely to have many players in the same server when you are playing so it would be much more fun.
The game is available in many languages so choose the right one.
Research each server’s population to get a bigger picture about the server you want. You cannot create a new character on a full server unless if you already have a character in the server. Since you are new, I would suggest you to start at low population realm as there are less players there and the expert player is able to help out if you need help.
Equip yourself with the knowledge about Alliance and Horde so you will know which side you want to play.
Lastly, ask yourself what experience you are looking for.

Exotic Pet For Wrath of The Lich King
There has been news about the development of a new range of exotic pets for the hunter.
Soon, the hunter will be able to tame a new batch of exotic pets in Wrath of The Lich King. The pets will have their own unique abilities and not necessary be stronger than the existing pets.
The exotic pets are of course exotic and not the usual kind of pets you see. Everything is still under development so there is nothing much to discover right now.
One thing for sure that these pets are available at a place unknown yet but probably the location itself is exotic too.
