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.

Hey there, Alliance Ch3, Step 25 (Thousand Needles), it says to go to thousand needles and take the lift down, but the coordinates were taking me to about 35 X & 21.8 Y Stonetalon Mountains. Not sure whether it's a bug, or just my game, but I thought I should mention it. Love the addon by the way, mega useful!
Alliance Ch3 guide needs some revision, the places it guides to are filled with high level players and makes it very tough to advance, is there any chance you can look into that? I'm playing on WoTLK
In reply to chronakay:
Hang on lemme make sure i understand you... you want us to rewrite the guides we give to you for free becuz you chose to play on a pvp server and there are high level players in it? like we have any control over who plays in what zones? im going to go with if you dont like being killed dont play on a streamer server.
Any chances for WoTLK support?
In reply to GregoryWW: None of the authors have beta access atm, as was told to you in discord when you complained about it in 3 diffrent channels. Yes there will be guides for wrath when it releases, the completeness of it depends on what is possible to get done from those that are in Beta we have testing things for us. There are new guides that were released on the git hub this week. Feel free to download those and test them out and post your results in the beta channel in this discord.
The latest release on GitHub 20220608 "Release 9.2.5-A0 / 1.14.3-A1 / 2.5.4-A2" has the old WoWPro.v9.2.0-A5.zip file in it, instead of the 9.2.5-A0 zip.

this has been fixed
Great Addon, but I was hoping someone can help me out. Is there a way to select a ghostlands guide for a tauren? it does not populate on my guidelist for my tauren but it does for my blood elf
In reply to tj21blizz:
No there is not. In TBC there is zero reason for a Tauren to be in the ghostlands,
For a free leveling guide, this is definitely an amazing addon, certainly beats using only questie. There are better options out there, which are more actively maintained, arguably offer better leveling experience and have more features, but they can be very expensive.
Anyone having issues with tomtom working with wow-pro?
In reply to kaseyd24:
Nope. If u ping one of the authors on discord with as much information as h can provide they might be able to help u
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.
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! :-)
