Step one: Upon logging in to World of Warcraft for the first time, you will first have to choose a realm (also known as a server). Most new players start on the realm their friends are. There are four types of realms available.

PvP: Player versus player. On these realms, players of the opposite faction can attack you at will, no matter where you are in the game, or what level you are.

PvE (normal): Player versus environment. You cannot be attacked by the other faction unless you are flagged for PvP or are in a battleground.

Understanding your character’s PvP strengths and weaknesses is the most fundamental secret to success in player versus player combat.

Your Hunter’s greatest strength in PvP is the ability to deliver massive damage at the greatest range of any class. With the right talents, you can hit from 41 yards away, leaving any other class unable to retaliate until they can get closer. This is a huge advantage you must exploit to the fullest.

If you’ve ever been involved in martial arts, fencing, or any other organized hand-to-hand combat system, you know there’s far more to success than simply flailing away at your opponent. Speed and precision are at least as important as size and strength. The same is true in WoW PvP combat. Every fraction of a second counts, and if you make a mistake, it could be all over. Let’s face it, swinging a little piece of plastic madly across your desk is not the fastest or most precise way to get things done. This is where macros come into the picture for gamers.

WoW macros are sets of commands that you can tell the game to run for you. Each command in a macro is equivalent to a button click or other command that you would use when playing with the keyboard and mouse. A command in a macro might look like this:
