WoW Forever First Aid Leveling Guide 1-300

This WoW Forever First Aid leveling guide will show you the fastest way to level your First Aid skill from 1 to 300. You will also find every trainer location and where to train First Aid past 150 and 225.

First Aid does not take up one of your two profession slots, so every character can learn it. Bandages heal you between fights, and in Forever First Aid also makes the healing potions that used to be Alchemy recipes, so it's worth leveling on every character. Below you will find the shopping list, the First Aid trainers by starting zone and capital city, and the cheapest recipes for every skill range.

This guide is still in progress. Everything in this guide comes from the Forever beta clients. Materials and skill requirements can still change before launch.

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.

An alternative replaces the whole row, so buy the one that is cheaper.

1-225

Beta Note: the beta stops at 225 right now, so I split the list in two. Use this part if you want to level to 225 on the beta.

Material Alternative (if cheaper)
130x Linen Cloth 81x Peacebloom
24x Linen Cloth
150x Wool Cloth
134x Silk Cloth
17x Mageweave Cloth 84x Silk Cloth

225-300

This list is not final yet, but the skill ranges haven't changed much, so it should be pretty close.

Material
16x Sungrass
60x Mageweave Cloth
20x Runecloth
30x Golden Sansam

First Aid Trainer Locations

Apprentice First Aid has no level requirement in Forever right now, so you can learn it on a fresh character. Every trainer also teaches Journeyman First Aid, so you don't have to find a different trainer at 50.

Capital Cities

Every capital city has a trainer. You can also ask a guard, then it will be marked with a red flag on your map.

Horde trainers:

Alliance trainers:

Starting Zones

Every starting zone has a First Aid trainer, most of them are inside the inn.

Race Zone Closest trainer
Orc, Troll Durotar Rawrk in the barracks in Razor Hill
Tauren Mulgore Vira Younghoof inside the inn in Bloodhoof Village
Undead Tirisfal Glades Nurse Neela inside the inn in Brill
Human Elwynn Forest Michelle Belle upstairs in the inn in Goldshire
Dwarf, Gnome Dun Morogh Thamner Pol in the Thunderbrew Distillery in Kharanos
Night Elf Teldrassil Byancie in Dolanaar, in the building north of the inn
Skyborne Zephras Isle Melasa Fairmend in Valanaar, Naleeia Tattermend in Shen'dar Village

You can find every First Aid trainer for Horde and Alliance on my WoW Forever First Aid Trainers page.

Apprentice First Aid (1-75)

If you have Linen Cloth or bought some pick the Bandages tab, if you bought herbs pick the Healing Potions tab.

  • 40-75
    40x Heavy Linen Bandage - 80 Linen Cloth

    The bandage is yellow from 50, so you might need a few extra.

Journeyman First Aid (75-150)

To train past 75, visit your trainer and learn Journeyman First Aid, it requires First Aid 50.

  • 75-80
    12x Heavy Linen Bandage - 24 Linen Cloth

    It's green, so only about every second craft gives a point.

  • 80-115
    50x Wool Bandage - 50 Wool Cloth

    Learn it from your trainer at 80. It's yellow the whole way, so you won't get a point from every craft.

  • 115-150
    50x Heavy Wool Bandage - 100 Wool Cloth

    Learn it from your trainer at 115. It's yellow the whole way, so you won't get a point from every craft.

Expert First Aid (150-225)

Learn Silk Bandage from your trainer before you leave, it's the last recipe the trainers teach.

How to learn Expert First Aid

To train past 150, buy the Expert First Aid - Under Wraps book from Deneb Walker (Alliance) in Arathi Highlands or Balai Lok'Wein (Horde) in Dustwallow Marsh. The book has no level requirement, you only need First Aid 125.

They also sell the next two manuals, so buy all three while you are there, or get them from the Auction House if you are low level:

  • 150-180
    42x Silk Bandage - 42 Silk Cloth

    It's yellow the whole way, so you won't get a point from every craft.

  • 180-210
    46x Heavy Silk Bandage - 92 Silk Cloth

    Use the Manual: Heavy Silk Bandage first to learn the recipe. It's yellow the whole way, so you won't get a point from every craft.

  • 210-225
    17x Mageweave Bandage - 17 Mageweave Cloth

    Use the Manual: Mageweave Bandage first to learn the recipe.

    Beta Note: Mageweave Cloth is close to non-existent on the beta, so keep making Heavy Silk Bandages until 225 instead:

    42x Heavy Silk Bandage - 84 Silk Cloth

Artisan First Aid (225-300)

You can train First Aid past 225 by completing the Triage quest. It requires First Aid 225 and level 35.

This part is not tested yet. First Aid kept every skill range from Classic, so the bandage steps from my Classic guide should work here as they are. 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 quest is given by Doctor Gregory Victor in Arathi Highlands at Hammerfall (Horde) and Doctor Gustaf VanHowzen in Dustwallow Marsh at Theramore (Alliance). You get a stack of triage bandages and have to save 15 patients, heal the critically injured ones first.

How to complete the Triage quest

  1. Press CTRL + V to show the health bars over the patients, or turn on "Show NPC names" in the interface options.
  2. Zoom the camera out to third person, so you see as much of the room as you can.
  3. Put the Triage Bandages the doctor gave you on your action bar and use those, not your own bandages.
  4. Stand in the middle of the room.
  5. When you have saved 15 patients, turn in the quest immediately. I failed it on my druid because I waited, six patients died in the meantime and the quest went from completed to failed.
