World of Warcraft Setting

World of Warcraft consists of three continents and a separate planet called outland where players can explore this fantastic world with their characters. They can complete quests, fight monsters and kill enemies to gain valuable armors and treasures. They gain experience points through this process and are able to learn a new skill after reach a higher level.

A number of facilities are available to characters when in towns and cities. In each major city characters can access a bank in order to deposit items, such as treasure or crafted items. Each bank is unique to that character, with players able to purchase additional storage space. In the major cities of Azeroth, Auction houses also exist as a way for characters to sell items to others in a similar way to online auction sites such as eBay. Players can also use mailboxes, which can be found in almost every town. The mailbox can be used to collect items won at auction and also to send messages, items and even in-game money to other characters.

As a player explores new locations, a number of transport shortcuts become available. Players can discover "flight masters" in newly discovered locations and then use those NPCs in order to fly to previously discovered locations in other parts of the world. Players can also use facilities such as boats or zeppelins in order to move from one of the continents on Azeroth to the other. Although the game world remains reasonably similar from day to day, seasonal events that reflect on real world events such as Halloween, Christmas, Children's Week, Easter and Midsummer have been added. Locations can also have changeable weather such as rain, snow and dust storms.

Sometimes, players should group together to go through some difficult challenges, especially in World of Warcraft dungeons. Dungeons are spread over the game world and are designed for characters of varying progression. Usually, players can make a group with up to five people to enter a dungeon. However, an exception is some special dungeons require more players to group together and form a raid of limited size (up to forty players) to face some of the most difficulty. Some scaring monsters gather around these dungeons that will give you heavy attack and players should coordinate well to overcome them.
