Jewelcrafting Leveling Guid (1-375)

The EASIEST and FASTEST way to level Jewelcrafting is to have LOADS of GOLD. It’s impossible to powerlevel Jewelcrafting without it.

This power leveling guide is focused on leveling jewelcrafting from 1-300 as quickly and easily as possible.

I have chosen designs with easily obtainable materials opposed to cheap materials, and I have not considered resale value of items.

Additionally, this guide was written during the beta so design specifications and material are likely to change. Please keep me posted with what you discover so I can keep this guide updated.

I strongly recommend not only buying what you'll need to level to 300, but also extras in case something goes wrong after the Burning Crusade is released.

Here is the list of best case scenario and recommended amounts of materials for 1-300 Jewelcrafting:
7g 12s 80c for training
180-240 Copper Bars
50-75 Malachite
100-140 Silver Bars
40-60 Shadowgems
40-60 Bronze Bars
60-85 Gold Bars
75-90 Jade
90-120 Elemental Earth
120-180 Thorium Bars
30-45 Star Rubys
30-40 Large Opal

Acquire the above materials and then go to the Jewelcrafting trainer in Silvermoon / Exodar. You shouldn't have to leave once you start.

Master:
For Master Jewelcrafting, it is always least expensive to craft the Uncommon rarity (green) gems, even if they're green patterns with a low chance to skill up. Other patterns always use far more expensive materials compared to 1g or less per green gem. After 360 skill, there are no inexpensive trainer-taught patterns to easily level on. Your best bet is to find or purchase Rare-quality (blue) gem Designs to cut for others or yourself. The Delicate Eternium Ring, if you can find it, is the cheapest way to level.
Learn Master Jewelcrafting from Kalaen in Thrallmar or Tatiana in Honor Hold
Use 24g to purchase the six gem Designs sold by the trainer for 300 skill
Cut 5 of any of the the gem designs you just purchased (which color gem you cut does not matter)
You should now be at 305 skill
Use 20g to purchase the four gem Designs sold by the trainer for 305 skill
Cut 10 of any of the gem designs you just purchased
You should now be at 315 skill
Use 6g to purchase Design: Glinting Flame Spessarite from the trainer
Cut 10 Glinting Flame Spessarite
You should now be at 325 skill
Use 18g to purchase the three Designs sold by the trainer for 325 skill
Cut any of the gem designs you just purchased until 355 skill (this will take a lot of gems, but trust me, it's still the cheapest way)
Train the Purified Shadow Pearl from any Grand Master Jewelcrafter
Cut Purified Shadow Pearls until 360 skill
Obtain the design for the Delicate Eternium Ring
Cut 15 Delicate Eternium Ring

You should now be at 375 skill. Congratulations!
