Dragonflight: Overcoming Professions - WoW (2023)

Dragonflight introduces a new and updated profession systemworld of warcraft, offering more depth and engagement while also providing a way for Azerothian crafters to stand out and differentiate themselves from their competitors.

Production Order

Crafting Orders is a new way to place an order for almost all of Dragon Isles' crafting recipes through an auction house-like interface. This new service is offered almost free of charge by representatives of the Consortium of Craftsmen, a newly formed trade organization with its first office on the Dragon Isles.

When placing an order, players have three options as to who can fulfill it: public, guild, or personal. For public requests, the player requesting the creation of an item must provide the tradable reagents. Guild and personal orders can be placed by the applicant or the craftsman. Certain special reagents can only be provided by one or the other. Soulbound reagents, in particular, often need to be provided by the purchaser when placing an order for a soulbound item.

Players can also further customize the order, including multiple.optional reagentsDepending on the recipe, prescribe exactly what you want to do. For example, many equipment recipes allow you to specify secondary stats.

Once an order is ready, the orderer decides on a commission offered to the artisan, pays a small postage fee, and ships it.

Crafters can view these orders, fill in the missing reagents, craft the item, and collect the commission (minus a small portion for the Crafting Consortium, of course!). The finished product is then sent by courier.

This is a great way for crafters to earn gold, improve their skills, and most importantly help with crafting for friends and guildmates.

Profession specializations.

Profession specializations allow crafters to specialize in their core crafting and gathering professions once they reach a high enough skill level. Through a variety of activities, you will acquire specialized knowledge that you can use to continuously improve various areas of your work.

This will be one of the main ways that Traders can set themselves apart from their peers, as there are many areas within each profession that they can specialize in.

Create and collect with quality

do with quality

quality and its impact

nuevoworld of warcraftis the concept of manufacturing quality, both for the articles produced and for many of the reagents collected. This is not to be confused with rarities like Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary, which remain unchanged and are not directly related to build quality.

Crafted gear will have five possible quality levels, while many other crafted and collected items, such as potions and ores, will have three quality levels.

For crafted gear, quality primarily modifies the item's level, with each quality level increasing it by a small amount. For example, a piece of crafting equipment could be for leveling up the item's level.306/308/310/313/316in quality////. In all cases, the goal is to make quality so important that higher ratings are worth it, without making the gains so great that lower quality versions aren't worth it.

For manufactured items such as B. Quality consumables, the effects of quality are somewhat more diverse. In most cases, higher quality will result in a stronger effect, but in some cases there may be other variations, e.g. longer duration, more fees, etc. Note that lower quality versions of these items can be expected to sell for cheaper, but this will provide a niche for those who don't want to shell out a lot of gold to get the full crafting set. those who can use objects. It is also cheaper to produce lower quality versions of these items for a number of reasons.

For reagents with quality, this quality value serves as an important input for production. Crafting with high-quality base reagents grants additional abilities directly during crafting (more on this below).

Finishing Reagents are a new type of reagent that can be used to improve aspects of the crafting process, for example increasing skills or crafting stats. Higher quality versions have stronger crafting effects.

Not all reagents collected are of high quality. Key reagents collected through mining (ore), skinning (skin, scales, fur), and herbalism (herbs) in primary professions will have quality, as will reagents crafted through primary professions (for example , fabric screws, metal alloys, etc.). Other reagents like meat, tissue, fish, and items that anyone can collect don't.

Determination of quality - the manufacturing process

When creating an article, there are two main elements to pay attention to.

orecipe difficultywill determine how difficult it is to create the recipe with superior quality. The difficulty of the recipes also changes when you include them.optional reagents, which can change up or down depending on effect and quality, sometimes significantly.

The crafting skill is determined by the basic skill the character has in their profession (for example, Dragon Isles Tailoring), but can be modified by a variety of factors including the quality of reagents used, reagent refining. , the team profession with skill bonuses, various bonuses provided by consumables and, above all, professional specialization.

As you craft your item, a bit of randomness is added to your skill check to account for natural variations in your crafting process. Also if you have anyInspiration- a new crafting stat: you have a chance to get inspired by gaining a significant number of additional skills while crafting. This means that you can do better than you expected, but never worse!

In the end, the final crafting skill is compared to the difficulty of the recipe. If this skill is higher than the difficulty, craft the item with the highest quality; Otherwise, the quality depends on where your skills are comparatively.

Additional breeding stats

In addition to their primary crafting ability, there are a number of secondary crafting stats that can affect the creation of new Dragon Isle recipes and the gear they can specialize in. These are the following:

• Inspiration- You have x% chance to get inspired by crafting this recipe with extra skill.
  • Inspiration is for those who like to roll the dice and get lucky as a bonus. It's also a way to craft higher quality items than your natural abilities and a specialization would allow you if you're lucky.
• ingenuity- You have x% chance to use less interchangeable reagents like ore.
  • If you are trying to squeeze every drop of profit out of your trade, this is the stat for you.
• Multiarte- You have x% chances to create additional items. Only works on stackable item recipes.
  • We've long loved the feeling of creating additional items from different abilities, like: B. the potions master in Burning Crusade. Multicraft cements this as permanent build value for those who love that build moment a little more!
• production speed- Crafting is x% faster.
  • For those of you who mass produce crafts for the auction house, or just want to save a few seconds now and then, Crafting Speed ​​is a stat that will help you craft these items a little faster.

A coupledragon flightSpecific manufacturing details

Powerful craft equipment.

nodragon flight, there are many recipes to craft extremely powerful equipment. Each main crafting profession can craft one or more parts, all of which work on a common system with the following attributes:

• Some of these items have stronger effects and are marked as Embellished. Others do not have this, but may contain optional reagents that add a powerful effect and beautify them. While you can use as many unadorned items as you like, only two unadorned items can be equipped at a time.
• They all start at an item level range close to basic attack and increase in quality. through incomeoptional reagents, they can be upgraded to heroic and even mythic raid item levels, making them competitive with some of the best gear you can find.
• They are all soul bound so you must craft them yourself or have someone craft them for you.
• Each crafted piece of gear requires different types of Soulbound Reagents, which you need to obtain in order to craft it and keep upgrading it.optional reagents.
  • The first of these, Primal Chaos, will arise from a series of challenging activities including dungeons, raids, PvP, and adventures in some dangerous outdoor areas. You need to earn a good amount of this component to craft a piece of gear, especially for significant pieces. A second item, Spark of Ingenuity, will come from a series of quests that will reward you with enough to craft a piece of gear. Additional stages of these quests will be available to everyone every few weeks. Once you earn five, finding a rare drop in Dragon Isles will grant you the ability to create more Sparks of Ingenuity.
  • To upgrade this gear to Heroic or Mythic strike item level, you need to acquire 10 Primary Focus or 10 Concentrated Primary Focus respectively, then combine them with some Primary Chaos. These ultimate reagents can only be obtained in Heroic/Mythic Raids, the highest levels of Mythic+, and high-level PvP.
  • For those of you who don't create this content, achieving a high level of renown with each major faction allows you to purchase Primal Infusion, the optional reagent that upgrades your gear to heroic item level.

Alchemy and flasks in the Dragon Islands

During your alchemical experiences on the Dragon Isles, you will discover many strange and wonderful concoctions. One is the standardization of Phial as an innovative replacement for Flask. Flasks work much like Flasks, lasting until death and counting as a Combat Elixir and a Guardian Elixir. The main difference is that they require about half as many reagents to make and last for half as long, but for flexibility, two can be drunk together to get the duration of a vial.

Alchemists who specialize in flasks will discover the secret of how flasks last them much longer.

New craft stations

Upon entering Dragon Isles, you will find new crafting stations for all primary crafting professions.

The more advanced crafting recipes in Dragon Isles require you to be at these new crafting stations. You will find many of them scattered throughout the Dragon Isles regions to make it easier for you to level up. When you reach the capital city of Valdrakken, you'll find a large crafting center that includes all the crafting stations, as well as merchants and trainers. The artisan consortium also has representatives of the artisan order in town and has even convinced some representatives of the auction house to settle in the area as well.

Alchemists are often called upon to create new potions and other concoctions for their allies on site, but the engineers of Dragon Isles have invented remote-controlled brewing stations for alchemists to use. These portable stations are very useful and are rarely prone to explosions, barring alchemical errors of course.

Updated reagent bags and lot sizes

With the introduction of crafting and gathering quality, additional inventory updates have been made regarding professions. To help out crafters, we're introducing a new bag, the Reagent Bag! Reagent bags can only contain reagents and follow the same rules as the reagent bank. These new bags will also be present in a new dedicated bag slot, making more inventory space available for your collected and crafted reagents.

In addition to this new reagent-only bag, the maximum stack size for most crafted and collected itemsdragon flighthas been elevated. Collected reagents stack up to 1000 (up from 200) and most crafted consumables stack up to 200 (up from 20) (ex. Potions,optional reagents,finishing reagents, etc).

Prospecting and Milling Updates

With the new profession updates, new slashing and prospecting recipes are now listed below each specific expansion version of Alchemy and Jewelcrafting you've learned. These recipes allow you to choose which herb/ore you want to grind/extract from this expansion and then chooseTo createoTo createato consume as many as you want with a single click.

You'll also notice that the basic version of grind and mine, where you point directly at a stack of reagents, has been superseded by this more convenient grind and mine method.

professional team

Players can also earn profession-specific gear to enhance their game and show their pride in their profession. In the new system, most professions have three equipment slots: one tool slot and two accessory slots. These slots provide a dedicated space for your professional equipment. You no longer need to have a hammer in your inventory if you are a blacksmith, or trade your weapon for your rod if you want to fish; these items are already equipped

The new profession gear in Dragon Isles often offers profession bonuses, usually in the form of new crafting and gathering stats.

In addition to the bonuses it offers, most equipment can appear on your character, making you look like part of your profession. When you perform a profession-related action, your character optionally visually changes to that profession outfit, and then changes back when you enter combat.

Recrafting y Mettle do Artisan

Recrafting allows you to take gear made by Dragon Isles and make another attempt at crafting it. Requires the original item, a subset of the original tradable reagents it contained, and Dragon Island Crafting, a special reagent obtained from the profession known asartisan value:

When rebuilding you can add, remove or change themoptional reagentsin transition. neitheroptional reagentsthat are replaced or removed are destroyed in the process. It also allows you to further improve the quality of the equipment if you can craft it with a higher skill than it was initially crafted for.

As mentioned above,artisan valueneed to rebuild. This reagent is soulbound and can only be obtained in limited quantities through various crafting and gathering activities. In the case of a production order, the customer or the craftsman can provide them.

In addition to its use in reworking,artisan valueIt also has several other professional uses. Some of them are for manufacturing high-end professional equipment, Illustrious Insight, afinal reagentwhich increases skills when used, and a few other consumables that benefit the profession. This means thatartisan valueIt is of great value to anyone in a profession and you should be careful when choosing how to use it.

With more tools at your disposal, we look forward to seeing where your new crafting adventures take you and to see you on the Dragon Isles!
