So...

 

I was just wondering, how can I activate WarcraftLogs? Is there a specific addon for it? I keep hearing about WarcraftLogs but have no idea how to use it..

That link should explain everything.

That thread should explain how to get started with warcraft logs.  Mind you, that the thread is 2.5 years old, so the images are quite a bit out-dated, but for the most part, nothing has changed functionally, only design wise.  Note that in order to view ranks or logs on your characters overview page you MUST enable Advanced Combat Logging in the in-game settings.

Everytime I look for that thread, I can never find it. I always think it is Zagam that wrote it, so I start looking through Zagam's history etc.

Gotta remember that it's Krazy that wrote it, or maybe just bookmark it when I'm home.

Haha, yeah, always takes me awhile to find it when I'm searching for it.  Then once I find it I remember that it's stickied/pinned in WoW > End Game > PvE and feel a little stupid.  Zagam has/had a sort of guide on how to use WCL to analyze logs, but that was, again, written 2.5+ years ago, and the layout/theme has changed.  Overall, his guide is still very much usable, but things have obviously changed since he wrote it.

I can write a new guide if it's any use.

If you have the time, go for it! If not, I'll be back home on my normal computer on Saturday and can do it then.
