WoW Blacksmith Guide

Blacksmithing is a great profession in World of Warcraft.  Using this profession, you can create weapons and armor for yourself and other players.  There are many useful things you can create and sell on the Auction House - earning you gold in the process.

In this WoW Blacksmith Guide I will teach you everything that you will need to know to begin your blacksmithing profession.

Blacksmithing works best when combined with Mining. I highly recommend that you level Mining and Blacksmithing at the same time, because you will need a lot of gold if you want to buy everything from AH. You can always check out my Mining Leveling Guide.

Before you begin with my WoW Blacksmith Guide, I want you to know that it will take a lot of dedication to get to the end and create those epic items. On your journey you can make yourself a lot of great items though, so it's worth it.
