Although it does a good job of telling you where a lot of monsters and NPC's are, it only really duplicates what is in the Strategy guide.This is a little more detailed on town maps and vendor details, whereas the strategy guide gives you all the NPC's that give you quests and their approximate locations.Perhaps worth getting if you want all the information you can hoover up, but personally I feel if you already have the strategy guide then I probably wouldn't bother with this as well.

So far I have only used this for solo questing, but am enjoying it and can’t wait to try it in raids. I’m am mostly a PvE player, but if anything I imagine it would really shine in PvP.

Pros:

Gorgeous

Does speed up reaction times, especially if, like me, you’re quite mouse dependent.

Very well laid out buttons

Good size

Surprisingly intuitive to use: I’ve never used any sort of gaming mouse before, and only play wow, but am having no problem at all getting used to the 17 buttons.

Cons:
