Guides about Jewelcrafting, a Tradeskill that has been implemented with the expansion pack "The Burning Crusade".
Here's the guide I made while I was leveling my character to 350. I was level 68 when I did this and had a ton of gold. I tried this 3 times with different races and classes, and found that sometimes the skill level varied if I stopped crafting something and then start again. You can sell everything made except; Delicate Copper Wire, Bronze Setting, Mithril Filigree, and Thorium Settings. You will need an alchemist to make you a Mercurial Stone (1 Primal Earth, 1 Primal Life, 1 Primal Mana). Comments are always welcome.

The following is how I prefer to level my Jewelcrafting. I've used this guide several times and seems to work well enough for myself. Shortly after finishing my Blacksmithing guide I started on this one but never found the time to get it posted. So here it is for your approval. As always I based this guide off of information gathered from www.wowhead.com using the updated level ranges for professions. I'm looking for feedback to see if there are any possible ways to smooth it out or if there are better options because of material costs.

This time around the guide is pretty self explanatory. The patterns are all trainable from the respective profession trainers and the few odd and end limited supply patterns you can either camp the vendor for or snatch them off the Auction House. Below I've listed the patterns you need to purchase from vendors and where to find them for your faction.

| Item | ||
|---|---|---|
| Random Socketable Gem | ||
| Fel Iron Blood Ring/ Golden Draenite Ring |
20 Golden Draenite 10 Fel Iron Bars |
|
| Random Socketable Gem | ||
| Mercurial Adamantite | 10 Primal Earth |
|
| Heavy Adamantite Ring | 15 Mercurial Adamantite |
- Mining and Prospecting-
* 10 Fel Iron Bars
* 15 Adamantite Bars
* 200 Adamantite Ore (Prospect for Adamantite Powder)
* 20 Blood Garnet and/or 20 Golden Draenite
* 10 Primal Earth
NOTE: By prospecting the 200 Adamantite Ore this should give you a sufficient number of uncommon gems if you do not wish to waste time farming Fel Iron Ore for the start of this guide.
As you prospect you're going to receive random colored uncommon gems. You'll want to reserve certain gems during specific phases. From 300 to 310 Make sure to save up 10 Blood Garnet and/or Golden Draenite, you only need 20 total combined not 20 of each. After you finish making the rings from 311 to 320 ALL other gems are fair game to make from 321 to 325. When you make gems from 321 to 325 be sure you're making gems that you learned at 315 and not 305.

For the 350 to 375 Random Socketable Gems there is a large number of gems in the Grand Master segment that I'm not going to try to list them here. Please consult wowhead or your crafting manual in game. Also of note we've gone back to making jewelry due to the availability of the materials. Thankfully in the Grand Master segment the gems are now orange skill level and offer solid points for skill leveling. By the time you've leveled past the random gems you should have enough Crystallized and Eternal Earth that it will expedite the leveling. Much like the Random Socketable Gems I've listed several options from 376 to 390 for jewelry, simply make the items that you have the gems available at that time. I would recommend you pick one specific type that you have an abundance of and reserve those for one of the pieces of jewelry for when you finish the random Socketable Gems segment.
