I’m a level 68 Alliance mage. My Enchanting skill is up to 80 - does this mean that I’ve automatically become a Journeyman Enchanter, or do I need to learn that from a trainer?
If I need to learn it, from who? I’ve been to Betty Quin and Lucan Cordell in Stormwind. She just says ‘hi’. He offers a training option, but Journeyman training isn’t in the list.
What is in his list is Cataclysm Enchanting, which shows requirements of Level (78) and Enchanting. I’ve got both of these, but the ‘Train’ button isn’t active. Why is this?
[I’ve found a post that says I ‘can’ learn Journeyman Enchanting from the same trainer that taught me Apprentice. Does this mean that I can ONLY learn Journeyman from them? I can’t now remember who that was. How can I find out?]
You should be able to learn your respective enchanting skill from a trainer in outland.
Professions have changed and old descriptions probably dont show this: That means that every xpac (vanilla, tbc, wotlk, cata, pandaria, wod, legion and bfa) has their own respective enchanting skill (classic enchanting. Outland enchanting, northrend enchanting njada njada).
That means you can learn it the moment your character is able to level in those zones regardless of your previous enchanting skill. You no longer need to level your profession skill to learn other xpac enchantings. So if you were to ignore all your trainers until you reach 110 you could then learn all respective zones starting enchantments. All xpacs have now a range from 1 to whatever is the highest of that respective xpac. You have a blue bar next to it in your profession window.
Also this is the classic forum and as such most people will either troll you or redirect you as your question is not relevant to the content they play (classic is just 1 to 60)
Sorry – I only started playing WoW six weeks ago so I’m not familiar with a lot of the terminology.
I’m now thoroughly lost. What am I playing if not WoW Classic? An ‘xpac’ is presumably an expansion pack – I’ve never knowingly installed one.
I don’t have a blue bar anywhere in my Professions window. The Enchanting section has a green bar which says 80/300 next to it. What’s a zone? Or Outland? Are Broken Isles and Eastern Kingdom both zones? I’ve got my professions skill up to 80 by enchanting bandages but I can’t find out how to be able to do anything more interesting.
Im sorry to have to tell you this. But you are not playing WoW Classic
Go to the launcher and inside the WoW Tab, just over the PLAY button, there is a drop down, you have to select World of Warcraft Classic there, then install and then play.
You are on Retail at the moment (btw, max level in classic is 60)
Silme – thank you for a helpful reply! I’d never noticed that drop down. I seem to be playing WoW, not WoW Classic. But most [if not all] of the quests I’ve done are the same as those in the on line WoW Classic guides I’ve occasionally referred to. Do the two games take place in the same world? Funny that I’ve been playing for a month and haven’t had a problem until now!
Anyway, I’ll find a guide for WoW. And take my problems to a WoW forum.
Yes ,its basically the same world. Retail, which is the game uve been playing so far, is the game that keeps on coming, the game Blizzard keeps developing. Classic is a recreation of the first release of WoW that came in 2004-2006. They play vastly differently but both are founded the same core concept, they atleast build on the same thing,I believe u would prefer retail, but if u want a slow paced game, then u can play classic as long as u have game time on ur account
Yes and no. Classic is WoW without any expansion packs. It also has the old patch applied. Retail 1-60 does not have the exact same quests as classic does because the Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms received a massive overhaul when cataclysm got released which updated all the zones to the time of Cataclysm (barrens for example is split in half by Deathwing on retail, this is not the case in classic)
It’s been a long time since I’ve been playing Retail (let’s say thats the up-to-date version, which I think most people play), but I think for both versions disenchanting is the easiest way to level right?
If you have both tailoring and enchanting, you could make ‘green’ items with tailoring to level that profession, and then disenchant them with enchanting which grants enchanting levels.
