Enchanting used to be a great skill to have because you could disenchant anything. All those useless soulbound quest rewards could easily be disenchanted and sold on the AH. Now your skill has to be at a certain level to in order to disenchant specifics items. This is why I have created this WoW Enchanting guide, I wanted to level my enchanting skills, as quickly as possible.

Now first off, leveling your Enchanting profession is going to be costly, so I would only suggest you start off with this WoW Enchanting guide if you have a substantial amount of Gold saved up, other wise you WILL go broke! If you do not have very much gold, then I suggest that you do a little WoW gold farming research before you even think about leveling your enchanting profession.

I have broken this guide into 5 sections Apprentice, Journeyman, Expert, Artisan and Master. This first WoW Enchanting Guide will cover Apprentice Enchanting (1-75). Most Profession leveling guides attack the entire leveling process in one guide from 1-375. This is the fastest way to go broke.

Now the materials suggested are the “bare bones” minimum that you will require for leveling your enchanting. Quite often you will find that you need a little more than what is suggested, either purchase extra, or head to the AH when you run out.

Step 1: Finding an Apprentice Enchanting Trainer

Head to your nearest trainer and purchase your initial training. While you are there make sure you learn Enchant Chest: Minor Health as it will be the main enchant we use to level our skill to 75.

Step 2: Shopping for Supplies

You can either shop or farm for the items. This guide assumes that you will purchase the items that you require. To start off you will need to create a Runed Copper Rod in order to start enchanting items, and them from there you will begin enchanting items. Each item on the shopping list is linked to Allakhazam so you can find the nearest place to purchase the items besides the AH. Some of the Mats for enchanting will be sold by or near the Enchanting trainer as limited supply items. You won’t be able to purchase to many, but it will help out a bit in the long run. Any time you have an opportunity to purchase a material that is limited supply, do it. It is much cheaper than the AH. All prices listed are approximate, as each servers economy is different.

Shopping List:
Copper Rod x1 (1 silver 24 copper)
Strange Dust x74 (7 Gold)
Lesser Magic Essence x1 (8 silver)

Total Cost: approx: 8 Gold.

Step 3: Start Enchanting

The first step will be to use your enchanting skill to create a Runed Copper Rod, then use Enchant Bracer: Minor Health to enchant the same bracer over and over again until your skill reaches 75.

1: Create Rune Copper Rod (1xCopper Rod 1xStrange Dust 1x Lesser Magic Essence)
2-75: Enchant Bracer: Minor Health (74xStrange Dust )

Once you have reached 75 in your skill check to see how much gold you have left, You may have to wait until you have more gold. If you are broke after getting to 75, again I suggest that you do a little WoW gold farming research so you can be better prepared for the next step.

The WoW Enchanting Guide Part 2 will take you from an Apprentice to a Journeyman.
