Adventure Guide
The Adventure Guide, also known as the Adventure Journal, was introduced in patch 4.2.0 as the Dungeon Journal but later revamped in patch 6.2.0. It lists the phases, abilities, and loot of bosses for raid instances, outdoor raids, dungeons, and suggests content at your current level. Notably, the guide does not directly specify tactics to overcome the abilities, leaving the players to figure out the encounter strategy on their own. Each expansion has its own background color.
The Adventure Guide unlocks once the player reaches reached level 11.
Traveler's Log
- Main article: Traveler's Log
The Traveler's Log keeps track of monthly objectives for the Trading Post, which can have a cosmetic reward (such as mounts) for completing the month of tasks and 500 additional [Trader's Tender] to be used at the Trading Post.
Suggested Content
The Adventure Guide suggests content based on a number of factors, such as character level, item level, quest progress, achievements, and more. The Guide is fully interactive, allowing players to accept relevant quests or search for a group via Group Finder with a single click.
With Dragonflight, players may find money in their guide, starting with [1-80] A Piece of Copper.
