WoW Jewelcrafting Guide - Burning Crusade

This power leveling guide is focused on leveling jewelcrafting from 1-300 as quickly and easily as possible when the Burning Crusade is released. This should give you edge over players who are unprepared for Jewelcrafting when the expansion is out. I have chosen designs with easily obtainable materials opposed to cheap materials, and I have not considered resale value of items. If you have any suggestions, please share them with me at suggestions@almostgaming.com. Additionally, this guide was written during the beta so design specifications and material are likely to change. Please keep me posted with what you discover so I can keep this guide updated./p>

Once the Burning Crusade is released, the below materials will likely increase in value as Horde and Alliance shuffle to their respected cities and try to power level Jewelcrafting. I strongly recommend not only buying what you'll need to level to 300, but also extras in case something goes wrong after the Burning Crusade is released.

Here is the list of best case scenario and recommended amounts of materials for 1-300 Jewelcrafting:

• 7g 12s 80c for training
• 180-240 Copper Bars
• 50-75 Malachite
• 100-140 Silver Bars
• 40-60 Shadowgems
• 40-60 Bronze Bars
• 60-85 Gold Bars
• 75-90 Jade
• 90-120 Elemental Earth
• 120-180 Thorium Bars
• 30-45 Star Rubys
• 30-40 Large Opal

Acquire the above materials and then go to the Jewelcrafting trainer in Silvermoon / Exodar. You shouldn't have to leave once you start.
