LOL what a garbage, completely worthless, mobile game that basically copies all of it's systems from better games already out there. Do NOT waste your time with hero wars.
For my fellow skinners, in Ohn'ahran Plains find the Plains Rockfang, they spawn frequently, it's a quest area as well so generally there are people all over and I see a ton of groups doing them. Having a group to just mass pull and clear as they are all close vicinity means easy clearing and skinning isn't limited to one person anymore! Happy skinning!
I like to follow the hunt quests as they go along and just skin like crazy. On my sever there is a white drop that's something like a Bear Spine, and it's worth good money, so I'm considering trying out a location with heavy bear population.
incredible guide. i haven't taken professions seriously in forever and this crafting system really looks like a viable way to gear up while experiencing meaningful profession progression
Completely new player here 😅 just hit 60 and omw to dragonisles😂 so everything is a bit overwhelming at the moment but I'm learning as i go, this video really helped me out so thanks for that ❤️
I grabbed DF skinning as soon as I could after getting off the first boat to arrive at the waking shores on launch day. I was at 100 skinning before turning in my first set of quests! mainly because EVERYONE was there and killing skinnable proto-drakes for those quests. it was a riot!! :D
I'm with you. Younger me would have felt pressured to min-max gold and resources by having at least one crafting profession, despite the anxiety. Kid having, full-time employed, pushing 30 me ain't got time for that nonsense.
@@ScottJanik Im pretty sure BOP items can be bought through the work order system, meaning everything will be obtainable if you are willing to pay for it.
I’m jealous! I find double-gathering to be too boring. The closest I have come is a toon with mining and enchanting, where I sell a lot of the enchanting mats. I feel like I’m exactly the target audience for this professions overhaul. :)
Please give us a more indepth look at each profession, kelani. I want to make gold with professions early on, but it's hard to find info on the specifics to make a real plan
One thing I noticed at least for tailoring is once you hit 25 skill you need to go to Valdrakken to find the crafting tables so it’s best to not really focus on things until you’re closer to max level & can get there. Also things like cooking need materials from herbalism and/or mining to craft their first recipes.
The two biggest issues with old crafting were limited relevance and the ability to arbitrarily pump out however much stuff you had the materials for. Now, you can craft up to Mythic level, re-craft crafted stuff to upgrade or modify it, there is a craft cooldown so people can't plow through crafts at seconds per pop and an artisan-specific resource that limits any single character's ability to pump out some of the stuff too. A crafting system with some consequences, can't just throw a heap of gold at it and instantaneously max it out.
Coming back to WoW after halfway through shadowlands, I am sooo confused by professions. They really didn’t do a good job explaining it in game. I was stuck for a while on my alchemist until I found out you needed the mettle and renown recipes. Also didn’t see that quest giver at the life pools at all. Thanks for the vid!
Wow! I've heard about the professions changing but I could've never dreamt about these massive changes, my hype for this expansions just went from like a 5-6 to a 9! Great video Kelani, thanks!
This actually is the ultimate generic crafting guide, I dabbled a good amount on the beta learning the basics and did some reading on posts made by other players. But this guide basically filled in the few knowledge gaps i had left. Ty for making this
My experience as an Omni-Gatherer/Crafter in 14 has really helped me navigate these new system. They really feel like an adaption of that system brought into WoW and modified to fit into the world. WoW Borrowed a system form a game, and adapted it to their own. It's almost like they're doing what made them good in all those years of Classic to Cata.
I didn't know about this system in FF. Does it also have crafting orders ? They did the same with dragon riding by mostly copying the Griffon mount and races from Guild Wars 2, and I have to say they implemented it very well (and made a lot more races than in GW2 which is very nice).
What happens if you proc an use less material on the auction house? Does the crafter get the remaining materials? Do they go back to the commissioner? Does it simply not happen?
I'll just copy this reply here - Double gathering while leveling is definitely viable - and in some cases ideal. Just depends if you're happy to swap your profs around to accommodate it. You can also get artisans mettle from the knowledge gains on those gathering profs, and use it for your crafting profs at max, so that's a nice bonus too!
Question for a casual player like me : I won't have time to raid at all because of my work, but I will probably do some M+ and get some gold. Is it better to stick to two gathering profession for casual or have at least Alchemy and Herbalism on my main? Not to mention the work orders
After what i've seen about the different profs, it doesnt really matter how much you play as long as you spend maybe 5-10 mins on dailies and maybe farm some shit. I think inscription will be a lot easier, faster and better gold than most profs
Have my tailoring and engineering maxed and ready for dragonflight, I plan on making my gear because it will be on my own time won’t have to feel rushed through big raids schedule is too busy for that 👍🏽
I've watched a couple profession videos, and this one is great for sure. However I still walk away a bit overwhelmed and confused. I don't know if thats a sign of a deep system, a convoluted system, or maybe I just got a dumb brain!
i read that the pats from primal infusions came from raid OR m+ depending on key level. 11-15 gives the heroic items and 16+ the mythic items. this would make more sense as they arent locking everything behind raiding anymore.
Yeah... He did say its to get the chance (not even guaranteed) for recipes to drop. I'm not sure if he said you need to raid for mats but I know u need to raid otherwise buy recipes off the AH. I dont like that system...sounds like you need to raid to get any essential recipes and if ur unlucky with rng and cant get it to drop ppl can take advantage of that and if it drops for them they can sell it for big money at the AH. I feel very uncertain about recipes being locked behind a raid boss. :/
What's preventing people from filling crafting orders for minimal gold? Especially if they also give skillups? I don't understand how anyone will ever make gold just by filling orders if everyone will just instantly fill them for skillups
Nothing is stopping that. But the higher your commission, the faster it will be picked up by a crafter. If you pay only a little, you might have to wait 12 hrs. Thats it.
Would you say its a viable strategy to put 2 gathering professions on my main and quickly level up an alt to put 1 or 2 crafting ones? My logic is that if i have to choose a character for farming resources, it would be my main since if im already running around the map, i might also pick up some world quests, events, rares etc. which i dont rly care about on an alt, but is good for progressing my main. Is there any downside for not having the crafting professions on my main? (also i'd just be happy with farming a token per month)
The main consideration for that kind of setup is the rep farming. Do you want to farm rep on alts to get the recipes for those crafting professions? Gatherers dont have any rep requirements to worry about, so gathering on alts is perfect this time around. Just depends on how happy you are farming the rep and on how many toons.
18:25 So they have this giant list and they couldn't figure out how to make all the professions equally represented? 4 items from JC, 2 from inscription and only 1 from Enchanting? Still leaving those as the red-headed step-children, eh Blizz? Meanwhile, Blacksmith and Leatherworking get the lion's share of these items. Additional: It should be pointed out that many of the items you made in the past to "assist" with your professions (like mining picks and skinning knives) can be slotted into these "accessory" and "tool" slots. I found this out when my Fishing Pole disappeared and I found it in the "Fishing Journal" window, so I tried other profession items and those worked as well. Doing this takes them out of your bag as well, so more bag space.
Can you make a recraft-craftingorder? Say I have a Hunter with leatherworking and an Evoker alt without, will I be able to craft & recraft gear for my alt?
Does anyone know if the new professions UI tells you if you have never crafted a particular recipe? I ask because you get a first craft bonus for the first time you craft each item. These knowledge points are spent in your profession specialization. So we will need a way to make sure that we craft everything at least once. If the UI doesn't do this, then maybe there is an Addon that will tell you the ones you have not crafted yet. We can't afford to leave profession knowledge points on the table.
Excellent guide and the stuff you had to cover!!! So they took the rep grinding and made it it account wide and made professions 10 times more difficult... I'd sooner have left professions alone and stayed with rep grinding. In my opinion blizz has made the rich richer and the poor poorer as people that are already rich can buy any mat they want and make more money from it. The people that work 7 days a week and have no gold are forced to buy tokens to get any fun out of their character. buying tokens is just what blizz wants them to do..
I havent done professions in a while. Can I pick new dragonflight professions? Like say if I was skinning and leatherworking do I have to take those or can I grab mining and smithing instead and start anew?
Back in Cata i choose to be a Blacksmith AND an Alchimist on my main. relying on my alts to gather the mats or buy at the AH. But now i'm questioning if it is still a fiable thing... For a long time i wasn't really into crafting, for me it was a tedious boring grindfest hardly worth the effort outside some "Must have" items for raiding. The new crafting is more interesting, at least for now, but i feel like i really need to choose to dedicate myself to ONE proffesion properly, and as a DK i'm leaning towards keeping smithing and ditching Alchemy and have an alt become the alchemist. Thoughts?
I need help. On my main I have Inscription stuck at about level 55, on my alt I have skinning at 100 but my leatherworking is stuck at about 62… any ideas? I done the cobalt farm and opened some chests but feel like ive hit a plateau
I'm playing this game for the first time. I've just made my character and I'm level ~20. Every single guide i'm looking at is talking what people who already had max level characters should do. I'm nowhere near Dragon Island. Does it mean professions are useless for me until i'm in endgame because i can't level them up from lvl 1? I'm feeling like i'm only person on the internet with that problem. Nor game nor YT expain anything. Or they say "it's same as before". Dude, what does it mean?
One correction: if your craft only has 3 specializations, you unlock them at skill levels 25, 50, and 100. The video says at 11:10 they unlock at 25/50/75, but that's not accurate.
Can you explain the skill and how we can get that higher than the recipe difficulty? I have no idea where the 'skill' numbers are coming from, and for each recipe it seems its different. :/
IMPORTANT NOTE TO CRAFTERS! - Seems like nobody is aware of this yet, but there's another unmetioned way to level up 50-100 which is way easier for low pop servers, where crafting orders basically don't exist. I found out that you can actually gain level up from RECRAFTING gear. i kept recrafting my 389 Spark of Ingenuity piece, and got profession skill for all the recrafts. It might not be able to get same quality, but you can mass produce a worse quality in recraft, and then use a illustrious insight for the last craft to get back to ur previous level if you have a piece from your own profession!
Great video! Looks like there's a lot of miscellaneous materials that will be required which will take up a lot of bag space. Is there a separate storage system for the materials other than the reagent bag?
What do you mean by Alch gets a hat from leather working? I'm assuming it's a leather hat for gear or something you need to proc potions? As a plate wearer I wanted to stick with alch for flasks in raid.
can you do recraft work order? E.g. my main usually have gathering professions and alts are doing crafting. If I craft some stuff for main (I understand I can via personal workorder) can recraft it later again via work order to my alt?
What happens now if you change your profession? If you unlearn one that has x amount of skills than later you change it back to the "original" profession will you lose your progression that you had or you will keep everything how it was? Just to explain I stored my soulbound drops so I can later disenchant them but atm I'm not an enchanter. If you switch to enchanter to disenchant stuff than I switch back to the profession I made progression in during the past few weeks will I have the same skill level that I had? I assume yes but don't want to take the risk :D
I kinda thought it funny that the category is named unlearned xD when did I learn them to "unlearn" them philosophy haha better go with not obtained or smth similar :D
in the last part of the video the gear says "BoP", so cant I gear up all my alts as a blacksmith? does every plate wearer have to be a blacksmith? or can I do work orders for my alts?
Nice summary overall and very well presentated! I have an issue tho. Does anybody know how to get to lvl 100 Leatherworking, when literally no one used the crafting orders since release? And yes, i checked them often
Will all players have equal access to the engineering battle rez, or will it be restricted to only those who are engineers as it has been previously? I have tried to research this and have failed to find a thorough, clear, and conclusive answer. My current understanding is that everyone will have access to the engineering battle rez via the tinker item and the engineering crafted bracers that everyone can get which has the tinker slot. Please help clarify.
I still don't understand some things, if I choose to be a phial master does that mean I won't be able to craft potions? Will I be able to craft everything but depending on the specialization I get more items per craft? Or the effects of the same potion are stronger if I am a potion master?
Do you know how much Knowledge we can gate during week 1 and week 2? I wanted to make some plans regarding leveling my professions but I can't find this information.
Great Review! Thanks a lot! A question: what do you think from your exp in beta, what ilvl of available crafted gear can we expect in 1st, 2nd week after launch and in the 1st week of season 1?
I'm level 70 with several professions and i'm stuck with Tier Silver item to craft. Impossible to improve to Tier Gold Missives for example. I don't know how to reduce difficulty or improvre my craft level. No problem at all with Leatherworking and Clothing. I'm stuck with Enchanting, Inscription and Alchemy. Any ideas?
Still don't understand why they made quality such a big factor for all professions EXCEPT enchanting. Could have literally just made it so enchants have different quality levels and give different stat-boosts accordingly
For Herbalism, is Botany or Bountiful Harvest a better first spec? Seems like Mastering the elements is very good so I'm wondering which one to unlock last

This is the best overall guide on the new professions system I've seen. Thank you for creating it!
I just can't wait to start crafting in Dragonflight! After long years of useless crafting, we are finally getting a good system!
I thought it was supposed to be that way in Shadowland too
@@SheinelI No way, this is a pure rework of crafting! Let's hope it's going to be great
@@SheinelI I don't think Shadowlands did much, if anything, to crafting. This is substantial. It will at least be fun for a while.

Most of my toons just have gathering professions to sell instead of crafting professions. For me it’s a lot less stress and anxiety 👍🏼
I'm with you. Younger me would have felt pressured to min-max gold and resources by having at least one crafting profession, despite the anxiety. Kid having, full-time employed, pushing 30 me ain't got time for that nonsense.

Best guide I've seen so far! I learned quite a few new things- just when I thought I understood everything haha.
can you place an order for a BoP item and log off and craft it with your own alt?
Coming back to WoW after halfway through shadowlands, I am sooo confused by professions. They really didn’t do a good job explaining it in game.

Love your guides, theyre pretty detailed and easy to understand. Thanks man!
When you're upgrading your crafted gear, can you use an embellishments than as well? Or only when you're originally creating the piece?
Great video! I didnt watch it yet. Im about to start it but you know how we do!!! Keep em coming thanks man!!
Thanks KIlani as always great content ! watched every second of it and took notes ! much appreciated
new to wow and not got dragonflight yet , I have no idea how to do any professions :(
How good do you guys think it would be to go with inscription and herbalism on my main?
Thanks for regularly updating this series.
What happens if you proc an use less material on the auction house? Does the crafter get the remaining materials? Do they go back to the commissioner? Does it simply not happen?

besides exploring the dragon isle and the dragonflight storyline, i'm really looking forward to the prof system. going to go deep into this!
Will the mats for crafting mythic like gear be available to buy on AH or bop?

Exactly what I needed! Was wondering how to get on with professions after more than a year Shadowlands hiatus. Thanks WoW content GOAT 🥵
If I don't raid then I cant get the right mats ? sound bad to me I should be able to get mat without being forced in something I don't want to do

18:25 So they have this giant list and they couldn't figure out how to make all the professions equally represented?
4 items from JC, 2 from inscription and only 1 from Enchanting? Still leaving those as the red-headed step-children, eh Blizz?
Meanwhile, Blacksmith and Leatherworking get the lion's share of these items.

Can you make a recraft-craftingorder? Say I have a Hunter with leatherworking and an Evoker alt without, will I be able to craft & recraft gear for my alt?

Can you complete a crafting order on an alt?
I havent done professions in a while. Can I pick new dragonflight professions? Like say if I was skinning and leatherworking do I have to take those or can I grab mining and smithing instead and start anew?
Back in Cata i choose to be a Blacksmith AND an Alchimist on my main.

So completely new to wow, would it benefit me to have a character dedicated to crafting? If so do you have a suggestion to race or anything like that?
awsome content always ! ty lots
How do you get the crafting details to show?
so if mail armorcrafting is in leatherworking does that mean I should use skinning alongside it
I need help. On my main I have Inscription stuck at about level 55, on my alt I have skinning at 100 but my leatherworking is stuck at about 62… any ideas? I done the cobalt farm and opened some chests but feel like ive hit a plateau
Can someone give me few tips about professions when it comes to enhance shaman ? Im thinking skinning and leatherworking is that good combo?
Skinning and leather making definitely go together. I’m a leather maker and I skin.
Is there any reason I can't powerlevel crafting on an alt kept at 60 and focus on leveling Double Gatherers to start?
I'm playing this game for the first time. I've just made my character and I'm level ~20. Every single guide i'm looking at is talking what people who already had max level characters should do.

thanks so much Kelani!
Can you explain the skill and how we can get that higher than the recipe difficulty? I have no idea where the 'skill' numbers are coming from, and for each recipe it seems its different. :/

IMPORTANT NOTE TO CRAFTERS! - Seems like nobody is aware of this yet, but there's another unmetioned way to level up 50-100 which is way easier for low pop servers, where crafting orders basically don't exist. I found out that you can actually gain level up from RECRAFTING gear. i kept recrafting my 389 Spark of Ingenuity piece, and got profession skill for all the recrafts. It might not be able to get same quality, but you can mass produce a worse quality in recraft, and then use a illustrious insight for the last craft to get back to ur previous level if you have a piece from your own profession!
Thank you!
Great video! Looks like there's a lot of miscellaneous materials that will be required which will take up a lot of bag space. Is there a separate storage system for the materials other than the reagent bag?
The bank
You have literally 30x the storage you did before DF
What do you mean by Alch gets a hat from leather working? I'm assuming it's a leather hat for gear or something you need to proc potions? As a plate wearer I wanted to stick with alch for flasks in raid.
any good addons or weakaura for mining?
So if I'm on a new character that hasn't levelled any profession, do I need to do before I start dragon flight?
can you do recraft work order? E.g. my main usually have gathering professions and alts are doing crafting. If I craft some stuff for main (I understand I can via personal workorder) can recraft it later again via work order to my alt?
What happens now if you change your profession? If you unlearn one that has x amount of skills than later you change it back to the "original" profession will you lose your progression that you had or you will keep everything how it was? Just to explain I stored my soulbound drops so I can later disenchant them but atm I'm not an enchanter. If you switch to enchanter to disenchant stuff than I switch back to the profession I made progression in during the past few weeks will I have the same skill level that I had? I assume yes but don't want to take the risk :D
I kinda thought it funny that the category is named unlearned xD when did I learn them to "unlearn" them philosophy haha better go with not obtained or smth similar :D
in the last part of the video the gear says "BoP", so cant I gear up all my alts as a blacksmith? does every plate wearer have to be a blacksmith? or can I do work orders for my alts?
You can do work orders for your alts! So any bop stuff can be crafted for any character as long as you can create a work order for it.
Nice summary overall and very well presentated!
I have an issue tho. Does anybody know how to get to lvl 100 Leatherworking, when literally no one used the crafting orders since release? And yes, i checked them often
Will all players have equal access to the engineering battle rez, or will it be restricted to only those who are engineers as it has been previously? I have tried to research this and have failed to find a thorough, clear, and conclusive answer. My current understanding is that everyone will have access to the engineering battle rez via the tinker item and the engineering crafted bracers that everyone can get which has the tinker slot. Please help clarify.
I still don't understand some things, if I choose to be a phial master does that mean I won't be able to craft potions? Will I be able to craft everything but depending on the specialization I get more items per craft? Or the effects of the same potion are stronger if I am a potion master?
@@Soma6372 ok, thanks for letting me know.
Always loved professions and collecting recipes but this is too complicated to be enjoyable, in my opinion.
I feel like it'll be easier the more you do it
Excellent guide.
Do you know how much Knowledge we can gate during week 1 and week 2? I wanted to make some plans regarding leveling my professions but I can't find this information.
Im dont think i will do profession but still not sure how public/private trade work to order a gear from stranger
Great Review! Thanks a lot!
A question: what do you think from your exp in beta, what ilvl of available crafted gear can we expect in 1st, 2nd week after launch and in the 1st week of season 1?
Can you add an embelishment during recrafting when it's not already on there?
I feel like I'm going to become a real life alchemist or engineer after all this info.
I'm level 70 with several professions and i'm stuck with Tier Silver item to craft. Impossible to improve to Tier Gold Missives for example. I don't know how to reduce difficulty or improvre my craft level. No problem at all with Leatherworking and Clothing. I'm stuck with Enchanting, Inscription and Alchemy. Any ideas?
does it make sense to just go double gathering on your main and buy all the needed stuff via crafting orders?
What Profession are you going to do on your hunter? Engineering and LW or one gathering proff?
Skinning + LW
I am not sure with the current AH, how prices will stabilize and will things be cheaper or more expensive?
Still don't understand why they made quality such a big factor for all professions EXCEPT enchanting. Could have literally just made it so enchants have different quality levels and give different stat-boosts accordingly
For Herbalism, is Botany or Bountiful Harvest a better first spec? Seems like Mastering the elements is very good so I'm wondering which one to unlock last
