Hardcover!!

ok that looks cool, i cant wait to get my hands on one. thanks for the post Barsossa.

Thanks! I am seriously debating picking this up. Think it will include a minipet code?

You realize this will likely become outdated after the first patch right? Stuff changes in MMOs very quickly. Some of the information might still be helpful down the road, and the art alone is prolly worth getting. But yeah...kinda meh. How many Trees are being wasted to keep printing the vanilla WoW rulebook still in the box that they still make today.

I realize that guides become obsolete fast, but sometimes they help fill in corners that you didn't see otherwise. I read the Skyrim and Dragonage guides multiple times.

For my part, I'm rather tempted by the prospect of maps. I could see some physical maps coming in rather handy for this game.

Yes they become outdated very quickly. I buy them for the maps and sometimes they have secret locations in them. Most MMOs have a code to unlock in-game item(s). The last one is what I really go for.
