World of Warcraft: Stealth Runs 101

in News & Features Discussion

Stephen Kovalcik makes his first appearance at MMORPG.com by unveiling a new WoW editorial that serves as a guide to stealth runs in World of Warcraft.

The idea behind a stealth run is to get up to and kill bosses faster than the normal group composition of one warrior, one healer, and three damage dealers. Also, since it is only a few short fights, it can usually be done with a smaller party rather than the average five-person party. Stealthing instance runs has the potential to be the shortest run to many bosses, however if done incorrectly or carelessly they can take longer than even a normal run. This short editorial guide will help show how to properly set up a stealth run for speed and fun.

Read the whole editorial here.

Cheers,
Jon Wood

    The Article is fine but...come on guys, we have enough WoW articles already. How about some article's about other games?

    The link takes you back to the main page, not to the article.

    Guys need to get the linking right. This is like the billionth link that just cycles back to the frontpage. Even going to the latest news section and clicking the link there takes you back to the frontpage.
    How hard can it be to put the link in? :P

    How to make stealth runs?!  There are tons of sites dedicated to that already!  Such content belongs on a site decicated to WoW, not one supposedly dedicated to the ever-growing body of online role-playing games.

    It looks to me like your banner funding is directing content lately, as there are FAR too many articles working in some reference to WoW, if the article isn't about WoW itself.

    I love WoW haters and their bull***t. Look there should be a lot of articles about WoW... it is popular and a majority choice so STFU and don't read it if you don't want to, but the 7 million+ of us that play WoW might want to read even more articles on our chosen pass time. It would sort of be like Sports Illustrated covering lawn bowling over covering the NFL. The more people involved and interested the more coverage you get.

    The reason so many people come to mmorpg is because it features so many articles about MMORPG's, not just about WoW. I'm not a WoW hater, I love WoW, but I'm also intrested in OTHER Mmorpg's.

    I am not a WoW hater. I am not a WoW fanboy. I love the graphics. The graphics is the main pull of the game then the hunters. After that there is little that I really want to think about the game any more. I have to say though that such articles are not something that I really look for because I doubt to ever play the game again unlike most that I have bought. I went back once and it took little time to frustrate me. The stealth run does sound cool though. I would really have to think about trying it if I went back.

    Not be a complete 'tard, but the article's main point seems to be that the best Stealth Runs are those parties composed entirely of well-played+geared Druids - Rogues need not apply.  And I think that's correct.  5 Druid DM Stealth Run > 5 Rogue DM Stealth Run. 



    But as mentioned before, this has been hashed out already on the official boards.  It's a major bone of contention among Rogues who want a PvE group slot.

    Dude another article about WoW! Sweet!



    Seriously. People REALLY need to find better topics to write on. There is a whole list of games there you can write about, guest writers. Be different! Be informative! Write about something OTHER than WoW! It'll help you stand out. Did you really want your first appearance on MMORPG.com to be an article on such a heavily covered topic? Now you're just like all of the other writers here except Dan Fortier(MMOWTF) and Nathan Knaack (Outside the Box).
