PROFESSIONS · 1 TO 300 GUIDE
Enchanting
Crafting · Updated October 30, 2026
You enchant gear for permanent stats, and disenchant greens you don't need into dusts, essences and shards. Forever adds necklace enchants, new wands, relics and a cheaper first stretch. Highly wanted in raids; expensive to level, but it sells itself.
What to pair it with: Tailoring: you disenchant what you sew to get materials. There is no gathering profession for enchanting: materials come from disenchanting.
What changes in Forever
- New first stretch: you start with Mote of Magic (sold by the enchanting vendor) and new low-level recipes like Enchant Bracer - Inferior Stamina and Enchant Chest - Inferior Stamina. The first 70 points are cheaper than in Classic.
- Disenchant is no longer in the spellbook: it's in the Professions window (K key). Enchants have an optional target slot.
- New wands: Novice's Practice Wand from skill 1, and later Twisted Nether Wand, Dreambough Wand, Lesser and Greater Eternal Wand and Brilliant Wand (275, Favor). Blizzard cut the vendor price of common and uncommon wands to 1 copper.
- With Merchant's Favor (39 formulas, 45 to 240 Favor): Enchant Weapon - Revelation, Recovery and Insight; five Enchant Necklace (Strength, Agility, Spell Power, Healing Power, Deflection); staves, orbs, relics and idols; and at 300 glove, bracer and two-hand weapon enchants. Sold by Alynsia at the trade camps (Redridge for Alliance, near the Crossroads for Horde).
- Camping: Enchanted Lute (20; depending on your level, 28 to 260 armor, up to +13 all stats and up to +22 all resistances; does not stack with Mark of the Wild), Arcane Salvager (140; better disenchanting) and Arcane Forge (300; advanced recipes).
- Legacy points at 150, 225 and 300, and the account-wide title "the Enchanter" with the certification (300 and 1,000 Favor).

Trainers
- Apprentice (1-75): no level requirement. Jhag (Orgrimmar), Malcomb Wynn (Undercity), Mot Dawnstrider (Thunder Bluff), Betty Quin (Stormwind), Thonys Pillarstone (Ironforge), Lalina Summermoon (Darnassus). Starting zones: Pa'zula (Sen'jin Village), Vance Undergloom (Brill inn), Alanna Raveneye (Teldrassil) and, on Zephras Isle, Eaysaa Brightgust or Nasalanna Windsinger.
- Journeyman (up to 150; skill 50 and level 10): Godan (Orgrimmar), Lavinia Crowe (Undercity), Teg Dawnstrider (Thunder Bluff), Lucan Cordell (Stormwind), Gimble Thistlefuzz (Ironforge), Taladan (Darnassus).
- Expert (up to 225; skill 125 and level 20, 50 silver): Hgarth (Sun Rock Retreat, Stonetalon Mountains) for the Horde and Kitta Firewind (Tower of Azora, Elwynn Forest) for the Alliance.
- Artisan (up to 300; skill 200 and level 35): Annora, inside Uldaman (Badlands), for both factions. Go in the back entrance with a group: she shows up once her room is cleared. Bring gold to learn all the 230+ recipes in one trip, since only she teaches them.
What is worth the most
- The new necklace and weapon enchants (Revelation, Recovery, Insight): only Forever enchanters have them, and people will want them from day one.
- Raid enchants at 300 (gloves, bracers, two-hand weapon) bought with Favor: top tier for healers and casters.
- Oils (Wizard Oil, Mana Oil): raid consumables burned every week.
- Disenchanting: unwanted greens are worth more as dust and essences than sold to a vendor, even more now that Blizzard lowered vendor prices of crafted items.
Tips
- Tip for mages, priests and warlocks: at level 1, with about 2 silver, learn Enchanting and craft the Novice's Practice Wand (first the Runed Copper Rod with Copper Rod + Mote of Magic; the wand takes Simple Wood + Mote of Magic). It is a wand usable from level 1.
- Disenchant every green while leveling: it's the best way to gather materials for free.
- Keep your runed rods: each tier of enchants needs its own.
- Follow the path that fits what you have: there is a dust version (Strange Dust) and an essence version (Lesser Magic Essence). One Greater Magic Essence splits into 3 Lesser.
- Plan the Annora trip in Uldaman: a group, gold for every recipe and Artisan at 200.
- Paired with Tailoring, sew green cloth pieces and disenchant them: both professions climb together.
- Offer enchants in trade chat: people bring materials and you level for free.
What we don't know yet
- 225-300 wasn't tested in the beta (level 30 cap). Guides say almost every range matches Classic, but we'll confirm it in launch week.
- How much gold Annora's recipes cost in Forever.
- Exact Favor cost of each new formula (beta data).
- What the Arcane Salvager yields and where its blueprint drops.
This guide is updated every time Blizzard publishes changes. Whatever is still missing goes in as soon as it is known, and the date at the top tells you when we last touched it.
