This WoW Blacksmithing guide will show you the fastest and easiest way to get your Blacksmithing skill up from 1 to 375.
Blacksmithing is the best combined with Mining and I highly recommend to level Mining and Blacksmithing at the same time, because you will need a lot of gold, if you want to buy everything from AH. It will take a lot of dedication to get to the end and get those epic items. Also, like other crafting trades, the benefits only really start showing at the end, so this Blacksmithing guide will be a massive gold drain all the way up to 375.

At skill level 200 and character level 40, Blacksmiths can choose to specialize as an Armorsmith or a Weaponsmith. Weaponsmiths can later further specialize into Hammer-, Axe– or Swordsmiths. All specialized armor and weapons are Bind on Pickup and can only be used by the blacksmith that made them. Most specialization recipes require difficult components, such as Primal Mights, Primal Nethers, and Nether Vortexes.

20 x [Adamantite Weightstone] – 20 Adamantite Bar, 40 Netherweave ClothRecipe location – Requires Cenarion Expedition – HonoredCenarion Expedition Honored Reputation guideNeutral to HonoredKill Naga, while also running Slave Pens whenever you can; a good instance run will net reputation faster than soloing. Alternatively, the player can begin turning in [Unidentified Plant Parts] for a chance at an [Uncatalogued Species], which can be turned in for 500 reputation. It is suggested that the player save his Uncatalogued Species until after Honored status is achieved, as the quest cannot be continued past that point, while Uncatalogued Species can be used until Exalted.
If you are an herbalist, and interested in Sporeggar reputation, you may want to grind the Bog Lords which can be found in the NE, SE, and SW corners of Zangarmarsh. Their bodies can be “picked” by herbalists and often yield Unidentified Plant Parts, while every kill yields 15 reputation with Sporeggar.
