TLDR
This is our World of Warcraft: Shadowlands release, with support for every new zone, and continuing support for all the old zones.
WoW-Pro Guides is a set of addons which bring guides written by the WoW-Pro community since Cataclysm into both the Retail and Classic releases. The Classic release includes a version of the famous Jame's Leveling Guides back-ported to Classic, since they were written for BC and WoLK.
Currently, the only supplied module for the WoW-Pro add-on on Curse is the leveling guide module. The addon is designed to provide easy, streamlined questing and leveling in a completely customizable package. The Curse release does not have the Achievements, Dailies, Profession and World Events guide addons. Those can be found on our Discord in the #releases channel.
Note: We currently require either TomTom or Carbonite to also be installed.

Is there a way to stop a guide without starting a new one? I was power leveled and allot of the guide I was using is too low.
These guides are completely garbage for TBC Classic.
- They do not integrate any of the new quest content added in TBC vs. Classic WoW, including the entire revamp of Dustwallow Marsh
- They do not take into account 30% more quest XP and advise you to needlessly grind in early zones
- They do not have you hand in quests in an order that aligns with quest levels (lowest to highest) which can result in needless XP loss if you happen to level between turn-ins
In reply to Zautix:
i agree with you. but you also need to look at the fact the addon is made by horde only players. they dont have a toon they leveled from 1 to 70 on alliance and they never will be cause they are horde babies. that prolly play on pvp servers and kill steal off of alliance all the time.
In reply to aelynwyld:
Thats funny, maybe you should get better at the game and not let a horde player kill steal, ORRRRRR play horde.
In reply to Zautix:
This is correct. However if you're already at 60 then this addon should work fine for you. It's only the old world content that's outdated, the Outland and the BE starter zone are integrated. I expect that as more guides are finished this issue will be solved, the addon is just the framework.
such nice children kicking someone from your discord server with no notice or anything. just for asking for a simple choice in alliance leveling direction instead of being forced into the direction some horde child thinks everyone should level. dont understand why it is so hard for people to just be nice and not be so stuck up. i asked something simple and your mods get rude with me and i state the truth and i get kicked. didnt even cuss on the server or make any derogatory comments on the server first time ever requesting something and because it challenged your childish minds to make it an option you quiet it by kicking me and banning me from your server that is so mature.
In reply to aelynwyld: you were removed from the discord for cursing at staff. You were rude from your very first interaction. As was stated to you when you asked about the guides in the discord they were being worked on. None of our Authors got beta access to do the complete rewrites of the guides. Once TBC went live and we had access to the content the guide rewrites were started. Most of the Alliance guides are completed now and have been for over a month. The Horde guides are currently being worked on. But seeing as we only have 2 people on staff playing TBC it's taking a little longer than expected.
In reply to cagomei:
your lying i did not openly cuss i used bleeps thus did not cuss and i was not rude to you horde loving children. you are a bunch of babies who just play horde and kicked me because i made a suggestion and banned me permanently from the server. other people openly cuss and are rude and they get to stay yet i make a simple suggestion to put the guides back to the way they were during classic and you banned me. your guides are faction based for the horde yet for alliance they are all compiled together for simplicity not for leveling, it was done to limit you from having to test your guides on alliance. plus not to mention the fact in your rules section it doesn't state if you ask for help you get banned. and if you reply back with logic over childish ramblings your get banned. and you say i was rude from the start you have some childish medial thoughts of rude. your creators or mods were a lot more rude to me especially with throwing in the bit about how classic isn't cataclysm because if i wanted retail i would play retail. i played in the beta back in 2004 unlike your pathetic babies that got sick of new content and went to play old world style and just enjoy how broken the horde was in classic.
In reply to aelynwyld:
You were banned for calling me a fucking idiot. whether you censored it or not. You were rude to staff you got banned. I have screenshots and chat logs of everything you said. The benefits of Discord it keeps a copy of everything said ever even if you delete it. We have 2 authors working on rewrites converting the Vanilla guides to TBC guides adding in new content. The answer to your question can we put the guides back to vanilla, NO, if you wanna play vanilla use the Vanilla guides. If you wanna play TBC use the TBC guides or don't use them at all. nobody is forcing you to use them. I'm not sure what you mean by faction-based for horde and not for the alliance. But here's a wake-up call kid, you can download the tools needed to write guides and write your own if you don't like the way that we write the guides in OUR add-on. I personally have played World of Warcraft since 2004 when vanilla was released originally. I play all 3 versions currently. I enjoy how the game was back in vanilla and TBC, that's why I play it, on Alliance. Im not sure why you seem to be stuck on horde for some reason. I have explicitly stated that I play Alliance, thats why the play test and rewrites for Alliance was done days into TBC launch while Horde is still being worked on.
Braindead paint-by-numbers addon. If you enjoy picture books where they give you a bunch of crayons with numbers on them, and a finished drawing with numbers where you need to paint each exact color they force you to use, then get this addon. Enjoy being a slave to its routes, while not being allowed to do quests or zones that you personally like. The guide also falls apart completely whenever you level in dungeons with people you meet. You know... *playing an MMORPG*... You will overlevel the guide very easily and then be stuck in its rut of low-level quests. Sure, you can start clicking "Skip" on a bunch of the quests, but then why even use a guide at all?
I highly recommend not using it at all. Just get Questie instead, which is a great addon that shows all quest givers on the world map, and holding Shift will let you read the objective (on the world map) to know if it's worth traveling there to pick up the quest. It also adds quest objective icons to the nameplates of enemies. I also recommend Carbonite, which provides a better world map for seeing the quest objective areas. You can open Questie with Alt-M and Carbonite with M, and they work perfectly together. Those two addons are all anyone needs. You'll thank me later, when you realize that you are free to go anywhere you want, do any quests that *you* like, and do as many dungeons as you want with friends, etc, without being constantly nagged at by WoW-Pro's strict GPS arrow telling you to "stop doing that fun thing you're doing and get back into its slavish route".
The developers are also extremely immature. I initially used this guide to try it out, but discovered how much it limits your gameplay and drains the fun out of the game by literally scripting every action and movement in the game so that you just run around like a completely mindless robot. So I congratulated them on Discord and praised them for creating a very advanced guide addon, but said that WoW-Pro is not for me. They reacted by banning me without any warning or discussion at all. They're of course welcome to do whatever they want, but that was really clownish and very immature. Seeing how incredibly petty they are, I fully expect them to reply to this comment to misrepresent what happened on Discord, so you'll probably see some reply by "cagomei" and the others below this comment later. Well, you had your chance to talk to me like a grown-up in Discord instead of instantly banning me for a comment that was mostly-praising you. You've already shown that you can't handle a grown-up discussion, so go ahead and write your long replies here instead, but I won't be reading any of them, because I'm outta here enjoying WoW the way it's meant to be played - free to go anywhere I want, do any quests I want, any dungeons I want, on great adventures, exploring the whole World of Warcraft and having a hell of a lot more fun than being stuck in a braindead, robotic paint-by-numbers route. But if anyone reading this enjoys not having any free will of your own, and enjoys taking orders from others in life so that you don't have to play the game, then sure, install WoW-Pro Guides!
Good luck! :-)
In reply to MessajahSWE:
Your analogy is 100% incorrect. WoW-Pro does not force anyone to do anything. In fact, players are free to choose which zones they want to level in while using WoW-Pro. No where in this addon does it say or even remotely imply "you must do the zones in this specific order". But hey you do you and keep telling yourself whatever you like in order to make yourself feel better.
In reply to Warcraft_Gamer:
Hi, then you are talking about either their Retail WoW, or their TBC Outlands routes, which I see are indeed split into per-zone chunks. That's definitely nicer, but they're still just incredibly boring, robotic paint-by-numbers orders within each zone. "Go to X, do X, do Y, go to Y, do Z", which means that you're not even playing the game, you're basically driving a taxi to completely rigid destinations and taking orders, or another analogy is that you're sitting in a cubicle at work and taking orders from your boss every step of the game, so while you're "free" to choose a zone that you like in Retail/Outlands, you'll still be stuck in their exact, robotic route without any free will. And if someone is following these strict orders with the dream of "leveling faster and not having to think", then why not just level via dungeon grinding, which is much, much faster than anything these guides will tell you to do, and will simultaneously give you a ton of great dungeon gear drops.
However, that's beside the point; to clarify what I was talking about in my comment, I'm talking about the Vanilla/TBC Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms routes (levels 1-60) which are just massive, flat guide chunks (such as "levels 20-25", "25-30", etc) that force you into specific zones in a specific order, and do not allow you to visit any other zones. And even if those Vanilla/TBC guides had been split into separate zones, it would still be a robotic paint-by-numbers addon. It's not for me. But the main thing is how they treat someone who praised them but kindly (in much nicer words than these comments) said that this addon simply isn't for me. I've uninstalled WP. I prefer having free will and the ability to go anywhere, do anything, and enjoy actually playing the game.
I'm outta here now, to actually play the game. Take care, everyone!
I like the guide would be better if there were more coordinate provided seen many steps that don't have the cords or are in the wrong place.
Nice

Hey, the Teldrassil and Darkshore 1 - 20 guides worked perfectly, but after finishing and moving on to the 19 - 25 Alliance Levelling guide, coordinates and the tomtom arrow stop working. Before the update the arrow always pointed at Westfall for some reason. Now there's no arrow at all and every step says No coordinates.
