The WOW Beginner Guide for Max Level Players!

This is my first complete guide for World of warcraft beginners who just reached max level in the 10.2.5 patch. What to do next? How to gear up?
We talk here about solo content and group content, dungeon and raid difficulties, how to get in these and what comps are needed. What is mythic plus and how to get invited? How to level your keys and how to increase your score? What are affixes? What is personal loot and what is group loot?
How do mythic lockouts work and what are gear upgrades?
How to get better at playing and progress, and what helpful sites are there for different situations?
