Dalaran hints at Inscription and Jewelcrafting

Dalaran on the Forever beta holds traces of two tradeskills that Classic never had. A jewelry shop has an apprentice jeweler, a scribes’ shop stands empty, and the Statistics pane counts Inscription. Blizzard has announced neither tradeskill.

Jewelcrafting

In the Magus Commerce Exchange, the trade quarter of Dalaran, lies Cartier & Co. Fine Jewelry. Two Jewelry Vendors, Harold Winston and Tiffany Cartier, sell expensive rings. Beside them stands Timothy Jones, an Apprentice Jeweler, as noted in the first post about Dalaran.

He trains nothing yet. Speak to him and he only says this:

When you can tell the difference between all these cuts, come back to me and let’s talk.

Timothy Jones shares his name with Tim Jones, Lead Classic Designer at Blizzard.

Inscription

Elsewhere in the Magus Commerce Exchange is The Scribes’ Sacellum, the Inscription shop. On the beta it has no staff.

The layout of the Magus Commerce Exchange comes from the Dalaran of Wrath of the Lich King, where both tradeskills existed. The two shops may simply be a leftover of that.

The Statistics pane in the character window points the other way. Under Professions it lists Highest Inscription skill and Inscriptions learned, between the tradeskills of Classic. Jewelcrafting does not appear in that list.

Whether Forever gets new tradeskills, and when, Blizzard has not said.
