World of Warcraft Enchanting guide

Enchanting – Improve your armor and weapons!

Enchanting is a great profession for any class to choose. Why? Because you will then have the ability to improve your own gear, sell enchants to other players and, at a higher level, you will be able to enchant your own rings. Ring enchants are only available for enchanters themselves so this reason alone makes Enchanting a great profession.

How does it work? First of all you need to learn the Enchanting profession from an Enchanting trainer. These can be found in all the major cities and in some smaller villages. These trainers will teach you several different Enchants. Once you train in Enchanting you will get the Disenchant ability. With this ability you can Disenchant green, blue and later purple gear. As a result you will gain Essences, Dust, Shards and other materials. These materials are needed in order to make the Enchants.

Once you pick up Enchanting you will notice that the leveling actually isn’t that hard. Ok, you have to Disenchant the green and blue items you find and receive so you can sell them for gold, but it’s not that much of a problem. At a later level however, getting the mats together for some Enchants is a big pain because of the costs, etc.

You will need different Enchanting Rods which you will have to make yourself. One of the materials needed is the rod itself which can be made by blacksmiths. The other parts are usually Enchanting materials or items that have to be purchased from the Auction House (AH).

You can make quite a few different enchants and the strength and variety of enchants of course increases as you gain skill levels. There are of course Enchants for every class with every talent build. For Tanks and PvP orientated people there are a lot of enchants that give the enchanted armor additional stamina. This is great because they will be able to withstand extra damage. There are also enchants that benefit physical damage dealer, meaning that they provide Attack Power, Strength, Agility, and Critical Strike Rating among others. Then you have the healers that also benefit greatly by Enchanting their gear. You will be able to get extra mana regeneration, spell power, intellect, and spirit among others on your items which will increase your capability to heal others. For the spell casting damage dealers there’s also the variety of spell power, intellect, critical strike rating, and hit rating among other enchants which will increase their damage output.

All together you can say that Enchanting is actually great for any class. First of all because you can enchant your regular gear yourself so you don’t have to pay others to do it, and secondly, others will pay you to enchant them! Finally you can also Enchant your rings and this can only be done by the Enchanter on his own rings which also makes it really convenient. The only bad thing about Enchanting is that it is so damned expensive. There are World of Warcraft Enchanting guides out there however that will show you a lot of details about how to level it up fast without paying too much gold, and how to make a lot of gold out of it once you do hit the higher levels and can sell great Enchants.
