How we checked: the 40 guides cite 612 distinct sources from 10 publishers — most often Method, Warcraft Wiki, Wowhead, Mythistone, Blizzard, Murlok.io — and every line on a guide names the one it comes from. Sources read 2026-10-07 to 2026-10-09. Where sources disagree, the guide shows both sides.
