Guide to leveling jewelcrafting to 300 There are these days more extensive and up - to - date sources of information on leveling Jewelcrafting available online via a google search . This guide to leveling jewelcrafting to 300 was initially developed and refined during the Burning Crusade beta and has since been confirmed in release . The emphasis here is on levelling relatively cheaply and effectively , not on profitability — especially since a glut of new Jewelcrafters may mean increased demand for raw materials and supply of crafted items , particularly at low levels . All items that can be created ( and their relevant skill levels ) are derived from Thottbot ' s database . However , Jewelcrafting is a relatively new profession , so this is no guarantee that skill levels or materials will not change again . Stock up on supplies at your own risk . Leveling jewelcrafting beyond skill level 300 requires the use of Outland materials and is not included in the scope of this guide . Locations . All designs listed in this guide can be found at the Jewelcrafting trainer of the appropriate level , with the following exceptions . These have been marked with an asterisk ( * ) in the crafting order . Alternatives . As an alternative to the , which is quite material intensive , it is possible , if you have the vendor bought recipe , to make instead . 40 Lesser Moonstone and 20 Bronze Settings is likely easier to acquire than 160 Iron Bars , 40 Large Fangs , 40 Bronze Settings .

If you have access to ample amounts of truesilver , you may want to consider the instead of , and / or the instead of the . The Commander ' s Ring has the additional advantage of being classified as a rare item . Notes . The vast majority of items in this table focus exclusively on recipes that are orange to you when crafting them , that is , they guarantee a skill point every time you craft such an item . This is done for the sake of determinateness . In some cases , in particular the , the and the , you will continue to craft these items even after the recipes turn yellow ( representing a reduced chance that you will earn a skill point ) , as you will need the items in later recipes . In these cases , the " projected skill level " in the above chart has been calculated under the very cautious assumption that you will earn no skill points with recipes that have turned yellow . In practice , you will very likely continue to acquire more skill points from these recipes , which would allow you to do fewer of some of the harder recipes later on . In addition , yellow jewelcrafting recipes have a relatively high chance of giving skill points and some of them will remain the most cost effective way to train for a while after turning yellow .
