WoW Enchanting Guide 1-450

Updated for WoW patch 3.0.3

This WoW Enchanting guide will show you the fastest and easiest way how to level your Enchanting skill up from 1 to 450.

In my Enchanting guide I only use recipes that acquired through trainers or vendors. There is a lot of world drop recipes, but this guide won't list all of them. You will spend a lot of gold on this profession if you want to buy every materials from the Auction House. It depends on the realm economy, but from 350-450 it can cost up to 7000 Gold too. From 1-350 you can't realy sell any enchants, because the good enchants starts from skill 350.

Enchanting really goes well with Tailoring, if you level Tailoring and Enchanting at the same time, you can disenchant most of the cloths you make, but it's good with any other crafting profession. Check out my WoW Tailoring Guide if you want to level Tailoring.

If you are low on gold, I recommend you to try this Gold Making Guide, it can help you to make loads of gold. You also need to realize this is not a leveling guide, so if you are looking for a leveling guide, the best one is this 1-80 Leveling Guide

If you are not 80 yet, and you are leveling your character then you can try to sell enchants at 1-350, but if you are level 80 I don't recommend doing it, since it will be really slow leveling this profession yelling at Orgrimmar: WTE 1 Stamina Bracer!!!!.

Before you start this Enchanting guide, first lets see which items gives what, when you disenchant it:

The type and quantity of materials produced from disenchanting varies by item type (armor or weapon), item Level and quality. The following general rules can be used:

  • Dusts usually come from green armor (75%) and weapons (20%)
  • Essences usually come from green weapons (75%) and armor (20%)
  • Shards come from blue equipment (97-100%), epic equipment iLevel 55 or less (100%, 2-4x), and rarely from uncommon equipment (3-5%)
  • Crystals come from epic(purple) equipment item Level 56+ (100%) and extremely rarely from rare(blue) equipment (~0.5%)

WoW Enchanting Leveling Guide 1 - 450

First, visit any trainer in the main cities of old Azeroth - just ask a guard, and learn Apprentice Enchanting.

Check out my Enchanting guide 1-110. It's about leveling Enchanting from 1 to 110 with clost to 0 cost.


50 - 135

Learn Enchanting Journeyman.

  • 90-100
    10 x [Enchant Bracer: Minor Stamina] - 30 Strange Dust

    • If the Strange Dust is cheap and the Greater Magic Essence is too expensive on your realm, you can make this Enchant up to 120.

  • 100-101
    1 x [Runed Silver Rod] - 1 Silver Rod, 6 Strange Dust, 3 Greater Magic Essence, 1 Runed copper Rod


135 - 200

Learn Enchanting Expert.

  • 155-156
    1 x [Runed Golden Rod] - 1 Golden Rod, 1 Iredescent Pearl, 2 Greater Astral Essence, 2 Soul Dust, 1 Runed Silver Rod
  • 156-185
    40 x [Enchant Bracer - Lesser Strength] 80 Soul Dust

    • This one turns yellow at 165, however if 2 Soul Dust is a lot cheaper than 1 Lesser Mystic Essence, keep making these until 185. If it's not then at 165 switch to:

    165-185
    20 x [Enchant Bracer: Spirit] - 20 Lesser Mystic Essence


200 - 275

Learn Enchanting Artisan.

  • 200-201
    [Runed Truesilver Rod] 1 Truesilver Rod, 1 Black Pearl, 2 Greater Mystic Essence, 2 Vision Dust, 1 Runed Golden Rod
  • 201-220
    25 x [Enchant Bracer: Strength] 25 Vision Dust

    At this time the recipe will be yellow, so I suggest you buy enough materials to make the enchant 25 times.


285 - 350

Go to Outland and learn Enchanting Master. Click here for the trainer list.

  • 290-291

    1 x [Runed Arcanite Rod] 1 Arcanite Rod, 1 Golden Pearl, 10 Illusion Dust, 4 Greater Eternal Essence, 1 Runed Truesilver Rod, 2 Large Brilliant Shard - Recipe location

  • 300-301
    1 x [Runed Fel Iron Rod] 1 Fel Iron Rod, 4 Greater Eternal Essence, 6 Large Brilliant Shard, 1 Runed Arcanite Rod
  • 340-350
    15 x [Superior Wizard Oil] - 45 Arcane Dust, 15 Nighmare Vine, 15 Imbued Vial - Recipe location

    This recipe is yellow already when you learn it, so you might need to make 14-16.


351 - 450

Go to Nothrend and learn Enchanting Grand Master. Click here for the trainer list.

  • 375-376
    18 x [Runed Eternium Rod] - 1 Eternium Rod, 6 Greater Planar Essence, 6 Arcane Dust, 1 Runed Adamantite Rod

From here, most of the Enchants will be REALLY expensive. You should put them on a Vellum or look for people who have the materials and tell them you will do the Enchant without fee.

  • 425-426
    1 x [Runed Titanium Rod] - 1 Titanium Rod, 40 Infinite Dust, 12 Greater Cosmic Essence, 8 Dream Shard, 1 Runed Eternium Rod
  • 440-450
    There aren't any recipe yet, which requires higher Enchanting skill than 440. But you should continue to make [Enchant Gloves - Armsman] until 450.

I hope you liked this WoW Enchanting guide, GZ to 440 or even 450!
