advice for a lev 37 that is just now starting on enchantingFollow

#1 Mar 11 2005 at 3:44 PM Rating: Decent
I was tired of being a pure gatherer so I took up enchanting. I'm a lev 37 with a good amount of gold saved up and would like to get "the good enchants" quickly.

Could anyone who also did this give me some advice?

What I've done so far -
Went to the AH and spent 2G buying up gear that cost less than 20s. Got a bunch of dust and even a few shards out of it.
Sent a msg on trade channel - WTB any green items for 15s. Spent another 2G or so on 15 more items to disenchant.
Offered free low lev enchants to guildies and anyone in IF.

One of my guildies is a low lev tailor - bought him 1G worth of cloth and got about 20 more green items from him.

If nobody took me up on the free enchants - I enchanted my own bracers about 20 times.

I'm currently up to lev 80 in enchanting (0 - 80 in two days)

Anyone have suggestions on where a lev 37 can either farm gear or specific things that are cheap for crafters to make that I can disenchant? Ways to market the lower level stuff?

You could contract work from a tailor. Tailors have the ability to make some green items that disenchant into shards. I'd find a tailor who is willing to make green items for you to disenchant en masse. The person could mail them to you c.o.d. making a nice little profit while you get a nearly endless supply of materials to work with.

Tell you friends and guildmates that you'd like to buy anything that they might be intending to sell to vendors. They could check the vendor price, mark it up slightly and send it to you c.o.d.

The best place to go farm that I have found is the Deadmines.

Go into the instance and just plow yer way thru it... at lvl 37 you should not have a problem. That is what I did a couple times over... each run I got an average of 25-30 Strange Dust 10-12 Greater Magic Essence and 2-5 Small Glimmering Shards. After a couple runs you should have enough to get you to 160 - 170 enchanting... Then go to AH and buyout all the Soul Dust you can <while yer there check for Vision Dust as well>. I forget what it is but there is an enchant around the 160 lvl that cost 2 Soul Dust. do it over and over... then around 200 there will be one similar, only with Vision dust... Lather, rinse, repeat...

That sould get you to 225 where I am now... so I have no advice past that... but doing it this way will get you 226 quick... I did 160 to 225 this morning in about 2 hours before I went to work.

Thanks for the advice -

Already have a tailor contracted who loves the skill up he's getting with the cloths I'm providing him.


Also going to try farming low lev instance tonight. I'm hoping that I can solo it but may offer to take a low lev priest with me so at least somone is getting xp.

Any other good stops for farming unchant gear?
