Almar's Guides

           Welcome to Almar's Guides.com. Here I strive to give you the best possible guides around on World of Warcraft, Everquest and Warhammer Online. This website is ever growing and I always add new guides. If you would like to help me and submit a guide of your own please click Submit A Guide at the bottom of the page. Hopefully you find what you're looking for! The Vault was added to catagorize all of my websites old "Recent Changes".

8/17/10

           So it has been awhile since my last real actual update. I've been working towards getting a lot of things all done at once. I've also been preparing for Cataclysm which will hopefully be out some time soon. My mission in Cata is to be the first website up with every farming location and everything possible. I'll be a man on a mission when Cata comes out, so in the mean time I am taking a small break to prepare for it. I will hopefully post a longer update later in the week but thats about all that is new with me!

7/30/10

Hey everyone, yup I'm at it again. Giving away another 5k. Hopefully this time we can get a lot of people to participate (Thus why im making the post so far ahead in advance) If you're going to try and participate please toss a post in the thread and let me know so I can get some sort of headcount! =)

THE CONTEST WILL NOT START UNTIL 10PM EST. AT THAT TIME I WILL HIDE THE EGG AND POST ON THE THREAD ANNOUNCING IT IS HIDDEN.

Rules:

Somewhere on my website I will hide a picture of an egg. To see the picture of this egg please visit the front page of my website (www.AlmarsGuides.com) and scroll down to see what you're looking for. When you find this egg it will be clickable and will take you to a page telling you that you have won.

1. When you find the egg please make a post in this thread stating the following things:

- Where you found the egg on the page

- Link of the page you found the egg on

- Link of the page the egg directed you too

The first person to give me these three pieces of information wins

You will be looking for a picture of this:

When you find this picture click on it and if it brings you to the "winners" link that I have set up then you will need to return to me and copy and paste that link and also the link you found the egg on and also tell me where the egg is on that page. As for the participation rules, there are none. Anyone can look for the egg and anyone can find it to report it back to me. However, please understand unless you play WoW on the Arthas realm you will not be able to claim your gold. (You could log on a level 1 character and I will still give you the gold, however, that would kind of be stupid to just waste gold on a level 1, so if you can please refrain from doing it.)



If you do not believe the gold exists send me a tell on Arthas and ask me to open a trade window with you. I will be happy to do it as long as you're not out of my way.

To contact me directly - Almar on Arthas (US)



Additional Important Information: The egg can be hidden anywhere on my whole entire website. As the day goes on I will periodically provide hints on the front page of my website as to where you can find it. Also as time goes on I will slowly narrow down what page you can find the egg on.

7/25/10 - Winner was Iktinos - Congrats!

Two updates on the same day! Woo hoo! Now this one is just to announce another give away contest since my previous one was rather fun and popular amongst the community.

Hey everyone! So, I have too much gold and im looking to give it away, no literally I really am. I am a big fan of easter egg hunts so I set one up on my website for a in-game prize! The first person to find a picture of the small egg on my website wins 5,000g! You can purchase that epic flyer you've always wanted! The rules are simple and are as follows:

7/25/10 - Almar's 25k give away! (WoW only)

           Hey everyone! So, on my way to gold cap I realized how little it would benefit my website from achieving such an easily achievable goal in the game. So, instead, I have decided to put my money to good use. I will be giving away 25,000g to celebrate, well, nothing. I'm just giving it away! The rules are very simple of how to participate... All you need to do is find the picture of a small egg on my website (as seen below)

           When you find this picture click on it and if it brings you to the "winners" link that I have set up then you will need to return to me and copy and paste that link and also the link you found the egg on and also tell me where the egg is on that page. As for the participation rules, there are none. Anyone can look for the egg and anyone can find it to report it back to me. However, please understand unless you play WoW on the Arthas realm you will not be able to claim your gold. (You could log on a level 1 character and I will still give you the gold, however, that would kind of be stupid to just waste gold on a level 1, so if you can please refrain from doing it.)

If you do not believe the gold exists send me a tell on Arthas and ask me to open a trade window with you. I will be happy to do it as long as you're not out of my way.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The small egg on this page http://www.almarsguides.com/wow/farming/60below/smallegg.cfm is NOT the small egg that will win you this contest.

7/19/10

           Only a quick update today. I'm still recovering over a nasty tidal wave of shit that was cast on me in real life. Everything is rocky at the minute... I hope to get done the EQ guides loot table updates either today or tomorrow and I still plan to add more WoW farming locations soon. But with everything in life the past month or so its been ridiculously hard to get anything done. I'll need a vacation sometime soon. Anyway the main purpose of this update was to inform you that I'm now at 175k gold. It should only take another month or so for me to hit gold cap. It all depends on how much I play a day.

7/8/10

           Big update today, I GOT BARON RIVENDARES MOUNT WOO HOO!!!!! I'm a bit over excited at the minute, run 246 Baron Rivendare finally decided it would be a good idea to drop the mount. Now those close to me know that I LOVE the Skeletal Warhorse mounts and most of all loved the graphics for Baron Rivendares mount. Getting this mount means a lot to me and im glad that finally, after all this time it decided to drop. Expect many screenshots to be uploaded with me and my mount <3.

                                            

                      

                      

           Well, good news, now that I got my mount I can finally start working on some more productive guides and things for my website. Whew, such a large weight off my shoulders, after 246 runs I could go without seeing Stratholme for some time to come. Here I come gold cap!

7/6/10

           Well this past week I've been working on many different farming videos as well as farming guides, adding pictures to my Aion leveling guide and my WoW leveling guide... I also finished up adding pictures to the WoW tradeskill section, still working on the instance guides though. Another big thing I wanted to bring to your attention is with this update I now officially am over 150k gold!

           It looks much cooler in person, I assure you. I am pretty happy about how much gold I am pulling in a day. It is usually 1k to 1.5 depending on what I do that day. And also since I just got my rogue level 80 I had to drop 5k on her to buy her epic flying. Hopefully the next update (175k) will come much sooner. There are a few more things first on my list to do than reach gold cap. Some of them for the website and some personal. Etheir way, over the next few weeks I plan to work more at the instance guides and work towards 175k.

6/19/10

           It's been awhile since my last update, like usual. Well, I've been working on many of the WoW Farming Guides and Instance Guides. I also finally broke 120k, looks like I'll be at the gold cap very soon! But the main thing I wanted to update about is more on a personal level. I wont get into all the mushy gushy stuff don't worry but I would like to honor someone special to me on their terrifc Artwork. If any of my WoW visitors have a Deviant Art account I strongly recommend you follow/sub to this account:

http://thejestersdragonxii.deviantart.com/

                      

           Do me a favor and keep an eye on that person. She is not only very important to me but also a very good aritst. Anyway, here is the pic of how much gold I have now... =P

           Hopefully I'll get lucky enough to hit the gold cap before cata comes out.

5/31/10

           It has been awhile since my last update, like usual, but this time I come bearing good news! After about a month of solid Auction House playing and running Stratholme for my mount, which I still haven't got, I finally broke 100k gold! If you're looking to make gold extremely fast, much like how I do, then I strongly urge you to check out my WoW Farming Guides. In my Farming Guide section I list each and every thing that I have ever done to make gold. So if you're looking to make a little bit extra gold I strongly recommend checking out my Farming Guide section.

           So, now my next big gold announcement will be the gold cap. I expect to hit the gold cap within the next two months, we shall see though. I know it will definitely will be before Cataclysm though. Also, if you'd like to see further proof that I did reach 100k on my own, here is a picture of my wealth tab in the Achievement window:

           I have no idea why my Total Gold Aquired is bugged out, but it is. Either way you can still see that all of this gold was earned by myself. In closing... Woo hoo! I broke 100k gold!

5/22/10

           So, it's been awhile since my last update. I've been very busy updating the WoW Instance guides, Farming guides, creating over twenty strath videos and completing my Stratholme Farming Location. I also got to create a very long guide on Prospecting Titanium and Saronite Ore. The big thing that I was looking forward to announcing is that my book is officially out and available for sale online. Just search for "2012 The Zombie Apocalypse" by Ryan Tomasella" on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and all other major book websites!

           I must say, it has surprised me with how many I sold and how well it is selling. I highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in Zombies or even Post-Apocalyptic scenarios. If you want to buy a copy then click on the picture of the book above this paragraph, it will take you to Barnes and Nobles website. If you do decide to purchase a copy thank you very much! Anyway and in the mean time I will continue updating my WoW Instances section and also try to get some more farming locations up over the next two or three weeks.

5/3/10

           So, over the past week I have been working on documenting some strath runs for my newest gold guide as well as making a ton of gold by using prospecting. I've almost broke 70k gold in all, probably by this weekend I will. (I'll put up a screenshot later.) But what I came here to say today is that it is the offical day that my book is released! You will be able to find it on Amazon.com as well as Iuniverse.com for sale. Only the E-book is available for now until the company is finished printing!

Want to check out my book? Follow the link: http://www.amazon.com/2012-The-Zombie-Apocalypse-ebook/dp/B003LBRL52/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1273590202&sr=1-10

           So, mostly I am very excited to see what my book will do and to see how much money it will make me. Either way, right now I am turning my attention back to my website and trying to fix up almost all of my WoW guides! You can look forward to many changes to the Instances section as well as the Farming Sections for WoW.

5/1/10

           The past week I've kept rather busy working on the new World of Warcraft farming locations as well as making a ton of new youtube videos. I've also created a guide that I have been wanting to for quite awhile, one for Guitar Hero! With my TV finally close to my computer as well I can now use my webcam to film me playing Guitar Hero too! The picture quality isn't the best but the audio is pretty good. I am going to be uploading all of my guitar hero videos to youtube over the next week, hopefully the reception for them is good. If you're a fan of Guitar Hero than you may be interested in checking out my guide;

Almar's Guitar Hero Guide

           Other than my Guitar Hero guide I have been heavily at work on getting some low level WoW Farming Locations done. All of those videos are being added on youtube in a timely and orderly fashion. Just stay subscribed to me and I am sure you'll spot them soon. So, yeah, this is more or less a really quick update. Stick around and more will be coming to you over the course of the month!

4/25/10

           So, I've been asked many times from friends in Everquest or old friends from WoW about what the gameplay is like now adays. Well, this is very difficult to answer since it is the same it has always been. You wake up, log on, jump around for two hours not wanting to do anything then wind up running a instance with people that have no idea what they're doing. After that you get frustrated and want to kill people, so you go to Wintergrasp, Northrend, Outlands or a Battleground, maybe even Walmart to seek your revenge.

           You can take out your anger on any Alliance/Horde or even the Walmart greeter, he won't mind, trust me. Either way, what I'm trying to say is WoW really hasn't changed much in terms of gameplay. You still do the same things practically every day. For this reason, I decided to make a very strong Tongue-in-cheek humor video detailing the game play of WoW. Click play on the video below and enjoy!

4/17/10

           Instead of my old "Recent Changes" format I've decided to switch it up a bit. Instead the main page will probably now appear to be more of a blog then anything. I know, I know, "Oh great, another retard voicing his opinion on the internet..." comes to mind, I am sure. Instead I'm just going to talk about recent updates to the site, whats to come and explain things easier. From now on the easiest way to see what new youtube videos I uploaded will be through this link:

http://www.youtube.com/user/AlmarWinfield

           As for other updates, you will be able to find them throughout my website or listed here if they are major. Few things worth noting, I reactivated my WoW account after about three months away, so expect updates for that soon. Also, I still have tons of Everquest videos/updates to add to the website, so you can expect more of them soon. Also, an important update which I've been asked about a lot:

My Yahoo email almarsguides@yahoo.com was hacked and I no longer have access to it nor will I ever because I can't remember my secret question.

           I don't why anyone would want to hack my email, but oh well. So, I can no longer recieve emails sent to that address. If you sent me an email over the past, like 6 months and I didn't repond, I apologize but my email was hacked. For the near future, expect more WoW farming guides, EQ Farming Guide section revamped, leveling section added too/revamped and hopefully more wonderful changes. Also, on another miscellaneous note I have something else important to add...

This month, maybe next month, or even the next month (I know, I know, my time tables are bad) I will have a book coming out. Yes, that is right, a book. It will be titled 2012: The Zombie Apocalypse. I will post more information here on the book when it is released. If you've already taken interest in it then below is what it is about.

2012: The Zombie Apocalypse is a riveting tale of survival in a postapocalyptic
world overrun with zombies. A group of unlikely survivors
are forced to band together to find salvation in a horror-drenched
world. Led by Ryan and surrounded by undead monsters, the survivors
journey across the wastelands in search of a precious and increasingly
rare commodity—life.

That is all I can think of for now. Hopefully I'll be able to update my site shortly and everyone will like the new changes!
