Blacksmithing 1-375 Leveling Guide

Blacksmithing is a great profession for some classes in World of Warcraft. Typically it’s reserved for warriors, rogues, and paladins. The profession is great because it offers some of the best plate armor and strongest weapons in the game.

You should note that even though Blacksmithing is a great profession it is something of a money drain. Due to the insane amount of materials required at certain points in the leveling process you’ll have to drop some serious gold. Though if you are a miner you can farm most of your materials on your own, certainly making the costs a bit more manageable.

That said, if you think you’re ready checkout the leveling guide below. So far it’s the fastest way I’ve found to level from 1 to 375. In addition to the items you’ll want to create I’ve included all the materials necessary for the entire leveling process.

Also, if you’re looking for additional guides on leveling your profession you need to check out Penn’s Profession Mastery.

As with any profession the last few points are going to be the most expensive, and therefore incredibly painful! Haha, but anyways, the easiest way to knock out these last few points is to take advantage of the reputation patterns from aldor or scryers. Below you’ll find a listing of materials you’ll need for each reputation, as well as the recommended items you should craft.
