Using an older guide
Treat a Classic guide as a list of questions to check. Before following it, compare the named ability, talent prerequisites, quest rewards, travel steps, and item requirements with a Forever source. A familiar name alone does not establish that its mechanics are unchanged.
For character planning, open the actual talent article and read its evidence label. Missing rank information is an unanswered question; extrapolating it can make a build look more certain than the available evidence allows.
For a group, agree on a small first-session objective rather than committing to a long farming schedule. Record any mismatch between a guide and the client with the build number and a screenshot. That gives the next reader something reproducible to check.
