I was playing WoW since the US Beta and lost 2 accounts to hacking, banned for life, a US account and a EU one. I just recently started playing WOW against and will have to say DO NOT BOTHER with this book, a lot of the add-ons and programs stated in here are no longer working due to Blizzard changing a few things. Yeah it was fun cheating, walking in air, teleporting, running at 500%, detecting everything on minimap... etc but Blizzard is a lot more clever and WARDEN will eventually get you and you will lose your account.

Play the game how it was meant to be played, use the legal add-ons.

I did give it a 3 star because indeed the methods are still working but they are detectable by Blizzard. On Private Servers on the other hand they will work quiet well:):)

Update: This is an update to reply to the other guys... I don't think you read the book properly, yes the main part is addons and such but it also tells you how to check for packages and values. It also points… more »

Update: This is an update to reply to the other guys... I don't think you read the book properly, yes the main part is addons and such but it also tells you how to check for packages and values. It also points you to some 3rd party programs such as Syndrome and others. The programs will allow you to hack WoW, allow you to run bots so you level AFK. I done it all... and I got banned. So no... it's not only for addons. Atlas is old news now... Cartographers is the new thing. Atlas Loot also is great.

Hope this helps. Go to wow ui, curse gaming and get your addosn from there.

Contrary to the title this is not about hacking or cracking the World of Warcraft game - instead it is all about how to make use of the macro and add-on extensions that exist plus (more importantly) how to create your own.

The subject is pretty tough and the examples given (while they do work) don't really lead you on to how to create your own add-ons with any great clarity but given the lack of any better guides on the subject this is still a huge advancement.

To the completely uninitiated WoW player this book is a revelation to how some players seem to be finding life easier through the use of macros and addons.

The subject of how Blizzard keep changing the extension language is covered with a reasonable explanation of why it happens and how to keep your addons on the right side of the track.

Ultimately this is just a starting reference to how to programme WoW for yourself and perhaps falls short of the objectives most people would hope for from such a tome.… more »

Ultimately this is just a starting reference to how to programme WoW for yourself and perhaps falls short of the objectives most people would hope for from such a tome. The subject matter is broad though and is more than just a programmers guide with advice on the ethics of addons and where to find the best ready made tools.
