How to get Display ID's quickly and easily!
The purpose of this guide:
Well, it's pretty obvious... It's really annoying and tiring deciding and manually getting a display ID you are happy with for a new NPC, Item, Gameobject or spell you are making. I have found a better way to do this which is quicker, easier and more effective. orly o.O? YA RLY!! I was timing myself using this guide and it took me 30 seconds to get a display ID I wanted!
Here is a much easier way to do it:
1. Go to Wowhead: Thrall-tested, Jaina-approved..
2. Search for the creature/item name you want as a display ID.
3. When you have clicked a link to an item/creature etc. You should see a picture of the item/creature on the site. This will help you decide whether you want it or not.
3. The URL might be something like wowhead.com/?npc=18043.
4. The number at the end of the URL is the entry ID. Copy it down somewhere.
5. Go to either:
G-run ID Page (Slow internet connections).
G-Run.net : ID's (Faster internet connections).
6. Press CTRL+F and put in the entry ID from Wowhead and press 'Enter'.
IMPORTANT!!
Make sure that when you search, you are looking at the 'ENTRY ID'. Should be furthest to the left column.
7. Copy the Display ID from that column and stick it into navicat.
