Magelo WoW beta opened, new EQ features are coming!
May 30, 2008
It's not a joke, it's not a dream; today we are proud to introduce our new World of Warcraft game channel. We did it! 
After 7 years of servicing Everquest players with our best efforts, Magelo is pleased today to meet the WoW community! This is for us the beginning of a whole new story and we would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the whole team, to thank you for your loyalty, trust, and support over the years.
You can access the WoW beta directly from http://wow.magelo.com or by clicking the tab at the top of the website.

The first phase of our WoW beta includes Magelo WoW profiles, a full database, and preliminary guild tools. A new Home channel will provide you with general information about Magelo, including new features we have in the pipeline!
We wanted to let you know that we've added team members to help us provide better service on our whole website. At the moment, on Everquest, we acknowledge that the most frustrating issue is the accuracy of heroic item formulas. We will focus on this issue and, with your help, we hope to fix it very soon. Please help us gather more information in our dedicated forum topic.
We've made many changes and improvements on our website. Let's take a quick tour of the main new features:
Magelo Sync New Client
We gave new life to Magelo Update, bringing more functionality and usability. Welcome to Magelo Sync!
 
Magelo Sync remains a quick and easy way to synchronize your characters and create your profiles. But there's more! With its Related section and Quick Search, Magelo Sync helps keep the Magelo database at your fingertips.
For all users, both premium and non-premium, Magelo Sync provides information that is directly relevant to your character's location, quest, etc., as you are playing! You can use this contextual information as a shortcut to our website to find details about your zone, actual target and, coming soon, your quest log!
Magelo Sync addresses many of the issues some users experienced with Magelo Update (game slots, run as administrator,...). And of course the Magelo Sync Everquest game module has been patched to work with the latest Everquest client version.
Find more information and download Magelo Sync now! As for Magelo Update you can safely uninstall it.
New left-side menu with integrated quick search, organized in two parts:
- Community: your characters, guild, account and a link to Forums and Help
- Database: all game content and a quick search at the top to find players, guilds, items, NPCs, zones and spells
Ranking Advanced Search now available for all users, premium and non-premium
Refine your searches using an assortment of advanced criteria such as tradeskills and tradeskills average, combat modifiers, resists and resists average, and many more.
Geo localized content coming soon for all users, premium and non-premium
For the first time on Everquest you will be able to access geo localized information to help you track down NPCs quickly on a map!
New background profile library for premium users
Customize your profile with backgrounds of characters, landscapes or classes. More than 50 backgrounds are waiting for you!
Please note that if you use Internet Explorer 6, we advise you to upgrade to Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 3, or Opera 9 to ensure the best experience our website has to offer.
Many new things are in the pipeline - we will keep you posted as soon as they are ready. We hope you enjoy all the new features on Everquest as well as on our new WoW game channel!
All feedback is welcome; thank you again for your support and patience!
Enjoy! |

Welcome to the Magelo WoW Beta!
May 22, 2008
It has been quite a challenging adventure, and we had to slash a few things along the way, but today we are pleased to finally share with you our quest to bring Magelo to the World of Warcraft community.
So welcome to the first phase of our Beta which introduces the Magelo WoW profiles, full database and preliminary guild tools.
  
- Magelo WoW profile allows maximum customization and details for each of your characters. The WoW profile also serves as a gateway to our contextualized database and guild tools.
- Use our client Magelo Sync to create and update your profile with one simple click! Magelo Sync ensures instant accuracy of your characters gear and progress, and allows you to sync whenever you want, as much as you want!
- Our rich game database lets you explore the game and provides many illustrations. Give it a try - it's fun! And don't forget to run Magelo Sync as you play to help us populate the database.
- Guild leaders can use our preliminary guild tools to organize and manage their guild by analyzing members strengths and weaknesses. Guild leaders can also set recruiting requirements and criteria to look for qualified candidates.
- You can also browse through guilds with open recruitment. You can place a LFG announcement on your profile to advertise your candidacy. It will also promote your character to guilds looking for members.
For more information and an in-depth demonstration of our profile, please check out our introductory video above. The video provides a quick tour of the profile features and introduce our client Magelo Sync. You can also visit our Discover Magelo section.
During the Beta, you can use all premium features freely, have fun!
Additionally, we plan to launch many more goodies before the end of the beta phase like alternate profiles. Feel free to check the In Development section of our website to see what's next in the Magelo pipeline.
Please keep in mind this is a beta, so we apologize in advance if there are few bugs here and there. If you happen to find some, please take the time to report them in our Bug forum.
Finally, I would like to take a moment to thank our dev team which worked very hard to make this happen, so a big thank you to Krogh, Loulina and Kimahry, we would not be here without you guys.
Enjoy!
The Magelo Team |
