Method's Mythic Archimonde Guide, Advanced Collecting Feature on Wowhead Profiler
In today's news, we have the final Mythic Hellfire Citadel from world first guild Method, as well as some frequently-requested updates to our Profiler.
Check out their Mythic Archimonde strategy video below, and their written strategy guide
here
.
Read the full post for more guide details and information on our Profiler update which allows you to track mounts, achievements, and titles that Battle.net does not pick up.
New Profiler Feature: Pin Your Character, Get Gear Recommendations on Database Pages
We love showing personalized information on database pages that's powered via the
Profiler
, and we've expanded this to cover gear recommendations!
If you
pin a Battle.net character
via the
Profiler
, you'll see a special "Upgrade for" section in Quick Facts when visiting any gear page. This lists the name of the character for whom it is an upgrade and clicking on it takes you to their Profile page. For raid items, which have multiple difficulties on each page, the recommendations specify what difficulty is an upgrade.
This is currently a simple comparison--it does not take into account item variations or recommend trinkets--but we have some more refinements coming to items soon. We're excited about using our Pin feature in a new way!
Check out our
What's New
page for a look at other cool stuff we've been doing.
Track your Heirlooms on Wowhead; New Daily Quest and Pepe Guides; Harrison Jones Hotfix
We've expanded Profiler collections yet again! Track your heirloom collection on Wowhead now via the
Profiler
to make getting
Chauffeured Chopper
easier and keep your upgrades organized.
On your Battle.net profile page, there's a new Heirlooms tab:
Track which heirlooms you've acquired and sort by source.
Keep track of which heirlooms you've upgraded to 1/2 and 2/2 with our completion column and progress bars.
Garrosh heirlooms do not count towards your total but are tracked with the tool if you have them.
Check out the
Profiler FAQ
for how to set heirloom tracking up! More details under the cut.
More 6.1 Guides
We have even more 6.1 guides for you based on what players are asking us about!
In addition to his
6.1 Heirlooms Collection Guide
, Xabidar has updated his guide to
all the in-game heirlooms
.
Our
Guide to Town Hall Daily Quests
covers the basics and rewards for Dungeon, Raid, Relic, Profession, and Bounty quests. Do note that many of the rewards have changed since PTR previews and recent patch notes!
Finally, Serrinne has a guide to
obtaining the Trans-Dimensional Bird Whistle
aka Perma-Pepe! She explains the achievement and ranks each boss you need to defeat by difficulty.
We've added these guides to our
Patch 6.1 Survival Guide
--if you leave a comment over on that post (not this one!) on your favorite thing in 6.1, you could win a
Big Battle Bear

New Site Feature: Track Your Toy Box with Wowhead's Profiler
We've expanded our
Profiler Tool
to track even more in-game collections!
Users can now track their
Toy Box
collection on Wowhead
--browse what you still need to collect, filter by source, and see completion tracking info when viewing search results and item pages.
To get set up, you will need to verify your character. This is a one-time process.
Log in to Wowhead
View your character
in the Profiler
Click on the Verify option on the header and follow the instructions. If you
log in via Battle.net
, this step will happen automatically.
Download and install the
Wowhead Client
From here, whenever you want to update your Toy Box data on Wowhead, do the following:
Run the
Wowhead Client
Log in to your character in-game (with the Wowhead Looter addon running). You don't need to open any tabs or perform any actions--just go in game!
Exit WoW, and use the Wowhead Client to submit your data to Wowhead
Hit "Update" on your Character Profile to see the latest information.
Note: We are investigating an issue where you may need to repeat this series of steps in order to have the Toy Box information appear. If you do not see toys on Wowhead, try repeating these steps.
Once that is done, Toy Box information will appear on your character's Profile. To return to this page, head to the "My Profiles" section of your user menu dropdown at the top right of any Wowhead page.
Your Profile will have a new "Toys" tab which displays all of your toys, broken down by source so you can easily decide which to collect. If you click the "Filter" option on the Profiler's header, you can hide different types of toys you don't want to collect--those from the opposite faction, requiring a profession, currently-unobtainable toys, and more.
Finally, if you click the "Pin" option on your Profiler's header, your Toy Box information is displayed when you browse toys across Wowhead. Quick Facts on Toy pages, search results with toys, and tooltips will have a checkbox showing completion for your character, so you can always keep track of what you do and don't have collected.
To learn more about toys, check out our
complete Toy Box guide
and our
Toy Box Filter

New Site Features: Garrison Missions, WoD Stats, Character Planner for Gear and Guides
Today the Wowhead team is excited to announce the launch of the
Character Planner
, as well as a new section in the Warlords database!
Character Planner
For the character planner, we wanted to create a tool that not only recommends gear, but suggests fun things you'd like to try in game! The new
Character Planner
suggests achievements and guides you'd be interested in, as well as gear upgrades and zones that have the most upgrades.
To get started with the Character Planner, go to
http://wowhead.com/planner
and enter in your realm and character. If you have a character in the Profiler, just click on the "Character Planner" option in the header and it will automatically load the planner for that character!

Site Updates: New Profiler Features, Custom Stat Weights and Reforging!
The Wowhead team is always working behind the scenes on ways to make our site an even better resource for our users. This week has been a particularly productive one. We've made several big changes here--all thanks to our community's constant feedback! We get a lot of requests from you guys and we're always happy to listen. Over these past few months,
Profiler
has been brought up a lot. In particular, you've brought up adding a way to track raid progression.
Well, now you can. We're happy to announce that we recently added a raid progression tracker to Profiler. In addition to all the other awesome things it can already do, it can now tell you what dungeons are optimal for your level and gear. In just one glance, Profiler can tell you what ones you have completed and your current raid progression as well.
Of course, Profiler's raid utilities aren't the only thing we've enhanced. We also improved on Wowhead's ability to help you choose gear and see how your stats change with every choice you make. We've done this primarily through two other recent updates: the ability to reforge items and the ability to create cust
