« World of Warcraft Guide to Gems and Jewelcrafting »
Introduction
This section is written to answer all the many questions I am asked as one of our guilds primary jewelcrafters. It is very comprehensive and will be expanded further. In terms of usefulness I hope it will prove to be a definitive guide to the subject. It covers:
- Gems from the point of view of what's available, by need and how to fit them.
- Where to farm and find gems and gem designs
- A guide to jewelcrafting
Enjoy!
