| If you choose mining as one of your two | | | | jewelcrafter only gems which are far better than |
| professions you have tons of options available to | | | | normal ones. Finally, the reason I really like |
| you for what else you can do. You can farm ore | | | | jewelcrafting is because it is easy to make gold |
| and sell it on the auction house. You can create | | | | with. |
| bars from ores you mine and sell those on the | | | | Having mining and jewelcrafting together will |
| auction house. Or you can even farm ore and use | | | | further emphasis your ability to make lots of gold |
| it to create bars or to prospect for blacksmithing, | | | | with your professions. While you can easily have |
| engineering, or jewelcrafting. | | | | one or the other to make gold it's really |
| Besides mining, jewelcrafting is one of my | | | | convenient to have both. First off, use your |
| favorite professions to have. I like jewelcrafting | | | | mining to go out and farm ores, saronite and |
| for several reasons. First off jewelcrafting is | | | | titanium ores are preferred. Next prospect as |
| relatively easy to level up. Yes it can be a bit | | | | many as the ores you want and cut the gems |
| expensive to find some of the lower level mats | | | | you receive and place them on the auction house. |
| when you are trying to level up but the higher | | | | By having both these skills and using them this |
| levels (think The Burning Crusade expansion and | | | | way you don't have to buy ore to prospect and |
| Wrath of the Lich King) are really easy and cheap | | | | you can sell your cut gems for a lot more than if |
| to get through compared to other professions. | | | | you were to just sell your ore. Simple, I know, |
| Having jewelcrafting makes it easy to gem out | | | | but a lot of people don't consider how easy it |
| your own gear and you also get access to special | | | | really is and pass by this profession combo. |
