TBC Blacksmithing Guide 1-375 

Why you should level Blacksmithing in TBC

While Blacksmithing is one of the most expensive Professions to level, it can provide some great items. Having Blacksmithing is best for classes like Warriors and Paladins, who can war Plate Armor and use most Weapons.

There are two major Specializations for Blacksmithing, Armorsmithing and Weaponsmithing. All of the Items that can be created with these Specializations require the Specialization to wear them, so it does not make a lot of sense to sell them.

In this guide you will create all the items needed for the Weaponsmithing Specialization while leveling up your skill.
