MoP Jewelcrafting Guide (1-600)

Posted on by

Approximate Materials Required for 1-600

IMPORTANT! Do not buy all of these materials at once! Jewelcrafting is really expensive to level, and on most
servers the Auction House is screwed up because of the insanely high prices of low level Gems, Ores and Bars. I
usually have a few tips, and alternative recipes, so you can save some gold.

  • 100 Copper Bar
  • 20 Tigerseye or 20 Malachite
  • 120 Bronze Bar = 60 Copper Bar, 60 Tin Bar
  • 60 Shadowgem OR 20 Shadowgem and 20 Small Lustrous Pearl
  • 80 Heavy Stone
  • 30 Moss Agate or 60 Lesser Moonstone (combination of both can work too)
  • 140 Mithril Bar
  • 80 Solid Stone
  • 25 Citrine
  • 15 Truesilver Bar
  • 5 Aquamarine
  • 50 Thorium Bar
  • 10 Star Ruby
  • 20 Large Opal
  • 7 Azerothian Diamond
  • 3 Blue Sapphire
  • 3 Essence of Undeath
  • 20 Huge Emerald

Burning Crusade

  • 40 Adamantite Powder (prospect 200 Adamantite Ore)
  • Buy 55 from any of the following gems (Or buy 40 gems and 15 Black Diamond): [Blood Garnet], [Flame Spessarite], [Deep Peridot], [Azure Moonstone], [Shadow Draenite], [Golden Draenite].Don’t buy all of them from one kind because there might be some recipes which you don’t have the reputation for, so you will have to choose other green gems. Just buy them when you get to that part of the Jewelcrafting guide.
  • 10 Primal Earth
  • 10 Adamantite Bar

Wrath of the Lich King

Cataclysm

Pandaria

Levels 1 – 50

First, visit a trainer – just ask a guard, and learn
Apprentice Jewelcrafting.

Levels 50 – 150

Learn Jewelcrafting Journeyman.

  • 50-8050 x [Bronze Setting] – 100Bronze Bar

    Save these, you will need them later.

  • 110-120
    10 x [HeavyStone Statue] – 80 Heavy StoneIf Heavy Stone is cheap (usually it’s not) make this one up to 130 ifyou want to.
  • 120-150
    30 x [Pendantof the Agate Shield] – 30 Moss Agate, 30 Bronze SettingsIf you prospect your own Ores, usually youwill get a lot of [Lesser Moonstone] too, but even if you don’t prospect the Ores, sometimes 2 Lesser Moonstone is cheaperthan one Moss Agate. So get the recipe [Design: Amulet of the Moon] and use up all your LesserMoonstone. This recipe turns yellow at 140, you might need to make more than 30 of these.

    The design is sold by these NPCs.

Levels 150 – 200

Learn Jewelcrafting Expert.

  • 150-180
    45 x [MithrilFiligree] – 90 Mithril BarSave these, you will need 45 of them later.

Levels 200 – 300

Learn Jewelcrafting Artisan.

  • 200-220
    If Citrine is expensive, you can continue to make [Engraved Truesilver Ring] up to around 210 or maybe more.
    But you will also need a bit more Mithril Filigree then.

    The recipe will go yellow at 210, so you might needto get more Citrine if you are unlucky. If you are lucky you will only need 20.

    25 x [Citrine Ring of Rapid Healing] – 25 Citrine, 50 Mithril Bar

  • 225-250
    50 x [ThoriumSetting] – 50 Thorium BarStop making these at 250 and only make more if you need it, but you willneed around 50.
  • 260-280
    If Large Opal is expensive on your realm, like it cost twice as much as one Star Ruby, then
    you should continue to make [RubyPendant of Fire] up to 275. Or if you Prospected your own Ores, you will have a lot of Star Ruby and
    Azerothian Diamond left, use all of them.

    20 x [Simple Opal Ring] – 20 Large Opal, 20 Thorium Setting

    If you reach 265 and you have a lot of Azerothian Diamond or if it’s cheap, you can start to craft [Diamond Focus Ring]. Keepin mind that you will need 7 Azerothian Diamond for the next step.

Levels 300 – 350

Visit your trainer and learn Jewelcrafting Master.

  • 340 – 350
    You can continue to make the gems above if you didn’t reach 350 by making the rings
    below, or make 1-2 more rings.

    10 x [Heavy Adamantite Ring] – 10 Adamantite Bar, 10Mercurial Adamantite

Levels 350 – 425

Visit your trainer and learn Jewelcrafting Grand Master.

  • 350 – 395
    Buy around 55 from any of the following gems. At 375, these recipes will turn to yellow
    so you might need to buy more gems.

    [Bloodstone], [Chalcedony], [Dark Jade], [Huge Citrine], [Shadow Crystal], [Sun Crystal]

    Cut any gem you want. Seriously, there are like 50 new green gem recipes, I won’t list all of them. Go toyour trainer, learn one and make that recipe around 55 times.

  • 420 – 425
    5 x [DreamSignet] – 5 Titanium Bar, 5 Dream Shard, 5 Forest EmeraldCheck the previous part if you don’t havematerials for Dream Signet, or you can also try these alternatives below. Choose one you have materials for.(the alternative in the previous part is a lot cheaper.)

    5 x [Runed Mana Band] – 10Titanium Bar, 10 Twilight Opal
    5 x [Scarlet Signet] – 10 Titanium Bar, 5 ScarletRuby
    5 x [Sky Sapphire Amulet] – 10 Titanium Bar, 10 Sky Sapphire

Levels 425 – 500

Visit your trainer and learn Jewelcrafting Illustrious.

  • 425 – 450
    Make 25 from any of the new Uncommon Gem Cuts that you get from your trainer. You can
    also make [Jasper Ring] if you
    can disenchant it.
  • 467 – 475
    8 x [Hessonite Band] – 8 Jeweler’s Setting, 16 HessoniteYou can also make [Carnelian Spikes] if 3 Carnelian is cheaper than 2 Hessonite. You can buy the Jeweler’s Setting from thevendor.
  • 475 – 500
    25 x [Nightstone Choker] – 25 Jeweler’s Setting, 50 NightstoneMake more Hessonite Band if you have some Hessonite left.

    Rare Cataclysm gems are cheap on most realms, so making [The Perforator] between 490-500 seems very goodalternative to rings and necks.

Levels 500 – 600

Visit your trainer and learn Zen Jewelcrafting.

  • 500 – 512
    4 x [OrnateBand] – 4 Lapis Lazuli, 4 Tiger Opal, 4 Sunstone

If your main goal is to just learn every rare gem cuts. Then start making the first gem research [River’s Heart] or [Sun’s Radiance]. You can only make 1 research
a day, but it will give you 3 skill points. You will have to learn like 100 recipes, which means you will reach 600
by making these researches daily.

  • 527 – 575
    I could list all the recipes you learn at 525, but there is no real need for that. All of
    the recipes you learn will stay orange all the way up to 575. You will learn new ones at 530, 535, 545, and so
    on. Making necks, rings gets you 3 skill points for 3 uncommon gems. Each gem cut gives 1 skill point. You get
    the same skill point to gem ratio either way. I would choose the necks, rings because it is usually easier for
    me to sell. You will use 48 gems.
  • 575 – 585
    You shouldn’t make the necks or the rings because they will no longer grant you 3 skill
    point. Make any uncommon gem instead. You will use around 20 gems.
  • 585 – 588
    Make any gem research like [Primordial Ruby]. It is up to you which one you choose,
    but it’s better to choose one that you have materials for because after the research you will learn a new recipe
    which you will have to make 6 times. The gem color of the recipe will be the same as the gems you used for the
    research.
  • 588 – 600
    Cut 6 rare gem from the learned recipe.
