This WoW Forever Enchanting leveling guide will show you the fastest and cheapest way to level your Enchanting skill from 1 to 300. You will also find every trainer location and where to train Enchanting past 75, 150 and 225.
Enchanting goes well with Tailoring because you don't need a gathering profession for either of them, and you can disenchant the items you made with Tailoring. Below you will find the shopping list, the Enchanting trainers by starting zone and capital city, and the cheapest enchants for every skill range. Forever added a few new low level recipes, so the first 70 points are cheaper than in Classic.
Shopping List
These numbers are estimates. Once a recipe turns yellow you won't get a skill point from every craft, so you might need a few more or a few less.

Enchanting Macro for Faster Leveling
This macro presses the Create button for you and confirms the prompt that asks if you want to replace the enchant already on the item, without any extra clicks.
Macro
/run ProfessionsFrame.CraftingPage.CreateButton:Click()
/run StaticPopup1Button1:Click()
How to Use
In Forever you enchant your own gear instead of a vellum, so you need a piece of gear for the slot the enchant goes on, for example your own bracers for a bracer enchant.
- Place the macro on your action bar
- Open your Enchanting profession window
- Select the enchant you want to craft (make sure it's the right one)
- Put the item you want to enchant into the optional target slot
- Press the macro repeatedly
This method lets you level much faster without having to click Create and confirm the replace prompt manually each time.

Artisan Enchanting (225-300)
This part is not tested yet. Enchanting is different from most professions in Forever: almost every skill range stayed the same as in Classic, only a few recipe names and material numbers changed, so the route from my Classic guide should work here. I couldn't test it because of the beta level cap, so treat everything below as untested until Forever is live, and send feedback if something is off.
The Enchanting trainers in the capital cities only teach you up to 225. To train Enchanting past 225 you need level 35 and Enchanting 200, then learn Artisan Enchanting from Annora in Uldaman (I explain below how to find her). She is the only trainer who teaches Artisan Enchanting.
There are a few recipes only Annora teaches, so bring enough gold to learn every recipe and enough materials to reach Enchanting 250, otherwise you have to go back to Uldaman for the higher recipes. Around 100
Vision Dust gets you to 250.
How to enter Uldaman
Uldaman is in the Badlands and it has two entrances, use the back entrance. You can't solo it at level 35, so go with a party or ask a level 60 to help.

How to find Annora
Annora only spawns once you kill every mob in the area she is in!

Don't forget to learn everything from Annora before you leave Uldaman! The recipes from 230 up are taught nowhere else.
