Enchanting-It takes money to make money...

[DevilDare]

Hello guys :wave:
So i joined yesterday and god i love these forums, really amazing guides/scams/glider profiles that make the game alot easier
So i thought i should try making my own guide and stop being the "Leecher" as soon as possible, please forgive me if there is a guide like this already.
Do bear with me and see if you like it.

Enchanting... It takes money to make more money

Yes, i hear you say, "Enchanting sucks, its too expensive to level" blah blah blah.
Yep that is true but once u do level it, it pays off like lighting. Alot of players think of enchanting as a "Trade" channel spammer, but when you learn it as your proffesion you also get a skill called DISenchant. We are going to use it to make the money.
Please note, alot of it depends on your servers economy, so do check the prices of the materials first and decide if your going to start farming them yourself.

Leveling it up
I would recommend leveling your Enchanting skill to atleast 175 to avoid interruptions like, "Your skill is not high enough to disenchant that item"

This is a nice "template" of the fastest and cheapiest way to level enchanting:
1 - 2
Runed Copper Rod (1 x Copper Rod, 1 x Strange Dust, 1 x Lesser Magic Essence) x 1

2 - 75
Enchant Bracer - Minor Health (1 x Strange Dust) x 74

75 - 85
Enchant Bracer - Minor Deflection (1 x Lesser Magic Essence, 1 x Strange Dust) x 10

85 - 100
Enchant Bracer - Minor Stamina (3 x Strange Dust) x 15

100 - 101
Runed Silver Rod (1 x Silver Rod, 6 x Strange Dust, 3 x Greater Magic Essence, 1 x Shadowgem) x 1

101 - 105
Enchant Bracer - Minor Stamina (3 x Strange Dust) x 5

105 - 120
Greater Magic Wand (1 x Simple Wood, 1 x Greater Magic Essence) x 15

120 - 130
Enchant Shield - Minor Stamina (1 x Lesser Astral Essence, 2 x Strange Dust) x 10

130 - 150
Enchant Bracer - Lesser Stamina (2 x Soul Dust) x 25

150 - 151
Runed Golden Rod (1 x Golden rod, 1 x Iridescent Pearl, 2 x Greater Astral Essence, 2 x Soul Dust) x 1

151 - 160
Enchant Bracer - Lesser Stamina (2 x Soul Dust) x 9

160 - 165
Enchant Shield - Lesser Stamina (1 x Lesser Mystic Essence, 1 x Soul Dust) x 5

165 - 180
Enchant Bracer - Spirit (1 x Lesser Mystic Essence) x 15

180 - 200
Enchant Bracer - Strength (1 x Vision Dust) x 20

200 - 201
Runed Truesilver Rod (1 x Truesilver Rod, 1 x Black Pearl, 2 x Greater Mystic Essence, 2 x Vision Dust) x 1

201 - 205
Enchant Bracer - Strength (1 x Vision Dust) x 4

205 - 225
Enchant Cloak - Greater Defense (3 x Vision Dust) x 20

225 - 235
Enchant Gloves - Agility (1 x Lesser Nether Essence, 1 x Vision Dust) x 10

235 - 245
Enchant Chest - Superior Health (6 x Vision Dust) x 10

245 - 250
Enchant Bracer - Greater Strength (2 x Dream Dust, 1 x Greater Nether Essence) x 5

Making the money

Ok, so now you have enchanting with a high enough skill. Time to make some money out of it ehh?
So, there are 3 types of Enchanting Materials, these are Dusts, Essences and Shards.
On alot of servers these materials go like crazy, and we are going to take the advantage of that.
Depending on your faction some instances might be unavailable to you, i am writing this guide from a Alliance point of view so you might have to check for some instances yourself.
Ok you have a level 58+ character, And we have 3+ good soloable instances, these are Deadmines, Shadowfang keep, Scarlet Monastery. What we are going to do is solo those places and farm green/blue items and disenchant them to make the money.

Deadmines-It consists of 7 bosses, these are: The bosses might drop something else but i am writing the item with most percent chance that it will drop.
Rhahk'Zor - Drops a blue hammer [Rhahk'Zor's Hammer] < Also a pretty nice warrior/paladin twink weapon.
Sneed/Sneeds Shredder - Sneed drops - [Gold-flecked Gloves] Shredder drops - [Buzzer Blade]
Gilnid- Drops - [Smelting Pants]
Mr Smite - Drops - [Thief's Blade]
Cookie - Drops - [Cookie's Tenderizer]
Edwin VanCleef - Drops - [Corsair's Overshirt] [Cruel Barb] [Blackened Defias Armor]

You will also loot alot of linen cloth/wool cloth which also can go for quite a nice price per stack.
After u disechanted all the blues you should end up with alot of essences/dusts and few shards. Get auctioneer from their website (Google it) and scan your server, then post the materials with the price that auctioneer suggests.

Small radiant shard

Ok what i want you to do is go launch WoW and go to your nearest auction house and search for "Small radiant shard". Look at the prices and decide for yourself if you want to start selling these little shards too.
If the answer is "Yes" get your characters ass to Scarlet Monastery.
Now you have a choice, you can get 2 shards per run in The Cathedral (Which takes quite some time per run) Or you get one in The Armory which takes around 5 mins. I usually mix it up, do Cath x2 and Armory x3, this is because you can only do 5 instances per hour (Yeah i know its crap)
In the cathedral i skip the gardens (ignore other mobs, try no to aggro them, there is alot of videos on youtube showing how to do it) and run to the door unlock it and start clearing up the inside, Once you get to the end there will be one boss standing facing the door ahead of him, his name is
Scarlet Commander Mograine, he drops [Aegis of the Scarlet Commander] [Gauntlets of Divinity] [Mograine's Might] [Scarlet Leggings]

Once you kill him another boss will run out of that door he was facing, her name is
High Inquisitor Whitemane, once you get her to about 30% she will resurrect Mograine and restore her hp back to 100%, kill them both very easy. She can drop [Hand of Righteousness] [Whitemane's Chapeau] [Triune Amulet]

The Armory

Same as Cath, ignore the Humanoids just run past them dont aggro anyting, open the door kill Herod loot him. Now i am a hunter so when a bunch of low non elites run into the room where i am i lay "Explosive trap" and they all die. Ive seen others quickly take off their items and let them kill him, he runs back into the instance Resets it, puts back on his items and repeats.
Find your way of doing it, it takes me about 5mins to run in kill, run back out.

Herod can drop - [Scarlet Leggings] [Ravager] [Herod's Shoulder] [Raging Berserker's Helm]

All these blue items i mentioned from the SM:Cath/Armory have a 100% chance to disenchant into Small radiant shard. Pretty nice ehh? Oh quick tip tho, dont put them on the auction house in big stacks, i do it in about 2-5 because some people dont need the full 20 or something.

I also heard that RazorFen Downs is also very good place to farm these shards, people sometimes get up to 3 shards per run, 3shardsx5runs=15shards an hour. The best you can net out of SM is 10 by doing Cath 5 times. So decide yourself whats better. RFD is abit harder tho, i havent tried it yet but might do later.

Shadowfang keep

I aint gonna bother to put up the bosses and the drops from them, all i have to say that its not the best place to farm for mats but you might get extremely lucky and get [Assassin's Blade], its extremely rare but if you do get it it can go for stupid high prices on the auction house. Its like the number 1 wanted weapon for those lvl 19 Twink rogues, when i got mine i sold it for 600g!

Closing moments

So yeah thats basically it, just farm the instances and disenchant everything that you dont need, also when you hit outlands level the Enchanting skill to 225, with it you can DE outland items which come out with stuff like "Planar essence" which can go for a quite a good price on the AH.

And here is the end of mine first guide, i hope you enjoyed it. I know a lot of players might already know this, and this method might not get you that Epic Flyer but it can do well enough for you epic ground mount or help you on your way to the Normal flying mount. Anyways, Good luck, Bye ! :wave:

Enchanting... It takes money to make more money

[Century]

I like it especially since you just joined yesterday +rep2

[Heftydogg]

=/ ok guide I guess. This type of thing has been posted before though.

Really all the money in enchanting is in shattering voids ATM. Buy a void for 30g, shatter it, put the 2 shards up for 30g each. Atleast on my server. That's a 30g daily right there for ya. And then the rest I just play the ah and DE all the underpriced gear and put the de materials back up. And it is possible to make money off actually enchanting too. Sitting in front of the AH in SW I can make ~100g off AH and ~50g off enchants just from tips in about 30 minutes.

hmm yeah didnt post about the voids because i havent tried it yet, dont want to post fake/nor right info. But i might do it later sounds like a better way than farming instances.

Century<< Thanks mate, trying my best

The leveling portion is an exact copy+paste from Highlander's powerleveling thread on the EU forums. Let me spam another post so I can put up the link..

A good way to make easy money as a low level enchanter is also to take tailoring, make brown linen robes, and sell the strange dusts they DE into. most servers i've been to it's usually 1-1.5g astack of dust, and can get a stack of dust from about 40-60 linen cloth
