Raid with the big boys

One of the most jarring transitions for players of massively multiplayer games like World of Warcraft happens when newbies realize that pick-up groups won't help them acquire the game's phattest lewtz (see figure at right, arrayed in full epic gear). When this happens, newbies either: (a) whine about how unfair it all is or (b) shut up and join a guild.

Still, newbs could use a little help making the transition. Luckily, a do-gooding Paladin by the name of Coriel thought of that with his guides (part one, part two) to end-game raiding in WoW.

Good luck. Don't spend all your DKP on one drop.
