Zygor is handle of a World of Warcraft player by the name of John Cook, who I had not heard of until I heard about his guide. So it was with quite a lot of skepticism that I purchased the guide.
Amazingly, it turned out my skepticism was baseless. Cook’s claim that his Zygor leveling guide is faster than any other available isn’t a completely groundless assertion-he has definitely written a guide that outdoes itself. Find out how in this Zygor guide review.
The method
If you’ve read some of my other articles, or are familiar with WoW at a decent level, you know the best way to level is questing. Even AoE grinding is lower in the end, compared to questing. And stuff like instancing is even worse, because finding a consistant group is pretty much completely impossible.
So if you know questing is best, why do you need a guide? To tell you what quests to do, in which order. A good player knows the best quests, and a excellent player knows what order to do them in. Experience makes you faster, like all things.
The Zygor Leveling Guide makes you quest like an expert player with several 80s. I couldn’t name a single time I found myself wondering “Wouldn’t doing XXX before XXX be faster?” like I often did when using guides like Brian Kopp’s or Joana’s. Even the iDemise guide didn’t show me anything I couldn’t figure out on my own.
Now, you might have spotted a different problem. “Telling me what quests to do doesn’t help me find things faster. Why shouldn’t I just use questhelper addon?” While Questhelper is better than nothing, the Zygor guide has an addon built in that makes it redundant at best, and really shows the weakness of that style of leveling.
The Addon
The Zygor guide addon is even better than the one used by iDemise. And it is by far more effective than any competitor’s addon. Most addons provided with guides just put a lot of coords on your map and say “good luck”- This addon, like iDemise’s, tells you everything you could possibly want to know about leveling, as you do it.
The whole guide is in the addon. Not just the leveling guide, and a coord marker, but special systems to make sure you are optimizing your character for leveling, with instructions on Specs and all. A great tool for those starting a new class, or even their first character.
To conclude
I hope this Zygor guide review has given you some help in determining whether it is worth your time and money. If you want to see how it compares to other popular leveling guides, check out my comparison review over at Squidoo by clicking here.
