It takes time to develop any profession in World of Warcraft, especially jewelry 1-450. Once Cataclysm was released, you were able to reach 525 skill points in your jeweler profession. It’s an expensive process, but if you take the right approach, it will save you tons of gold.

Here are some tips for crafting 1-450 jewelry:

#1 Rough stone statue or delicate copper wire

These are the first two areas towards your 1-450 jewelry journey. The one you choose will most likely depend on the amount of gold you have and the other profession you choose. If you choose mining, it will be much easier to level up your jeweler profession.

Rough Stone costs between 20 silver and 1 gold per stack of 20. You need 8 of them to make 1 rough stone statue. It only takes 2 copper bars to make 1 delicate copper wire. Unfortunately, a stack of this can cost between 5 and 15 gold, depending on your realm.

We were able to purchase 13 raw stone stacks, which translates to 32 raw stone statue pieces. The total cost was 8 gold 80 silver. To reach this amount of skill points in our realm with copper bars, it would cost 47 gold. We were able to do 33 skill points in total. It should still be yellow, so go back and buy 9 more stacks. You should get to 42 or 43 by the time you’re done.

#2 Do not train everything!

One of the best tips we can give you is to watch what you train. Most World of Warcraft players will get all the jewelry skins they can wear. However, it can cause further delays in the level of your jewelry profession. For example, once you’re done with the rough stone statues, only train 1 item that’s available. This is what you will be able to train:

* Heavy Copper Ring (5)

* Malachite Pendant (20)

* Tiger eye band (20)

* Inlaid Malachite Ring (30)

* Embellished Tiger Eye Necklace (30)

The goal is to form something that is “red” in your jeweler profession. You also want something that has the fewest mats. In this case it will be the Inlaid Malachite Ring. You need 2 malachites and 2 copper ingots per ring. Buying the mats for this would cost you 15 gold for everything (depending on your realm).

You’ll get a skill point for all 10, so you should end up around 54 total.

#3 Mining saves the most gold

Yes, it takes a bit longer to mine the ores, get extra pieces like tiger eye and malachite, or even make bronze bars (tin bar and copper bar), but you save the most gold when you work on your profession of jewelry 1-450. So if you want comfort, reach level 50 by crafting the two skins we discussed today. If you want to save the most gold for your 1-450 jeweler profession, get out there and bang!
