Every tradeskill brings its own buff to a campfire

Camping is one of the new systems in WoW Forever, and every tradeskill feeds it. Each one crafts items that go at a campsite, and anyone who sits there for a minute picks up the buff. You do not need the tradeskill yourself, and you do not need to be in a group.

The full list comes from the beta. Blizzard has not published the numbers.

How you get at it

A quest early in the game, The Great Outdoors, unlocks the perks. After that, a buff called Campfire Nearby appears on your bar whenever you come near a camp someone has placed. Walk over, type /sit and stay put for a minute.

That is the whole social trick of the system: a camp left standing by a stranger works for you too.

What each tradeskill gives

Tradeskill The buff Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Alchemy Mana regeneration Mana Well Fermenter Alchemy Laboratory
Blacksmithing Strength Sharpening Wheel Anvil Master Forge
Enchanting Armor, all stats and resistances Enchanted Lute Arcane Salvager Arcane Forge
Engineering No stat buff Reagent Bot Repair Bot Anarchist’s Workbench
Herbalism Intellect Incense Candle Greenhouse Seed Hybridizer
Leatherworking Rested experience, up to 5 percent of a level Camp Tent Tanning Rack Sewing Machine
Mining Melee Attack Power Lodestone Rock Garden Molten Foundry
Skinning 2 percent Crit Camp Chair Field Guide Trapper’s Workbench
Tailoring Spirit Faction Banner Spinning Wheel Loom
Cooking More room in the camp Basic Campfire Kit Journeyman Campfire Kit Expert Campfire Kit
First Aid Stamina First Aid Kit Toxin Study Plague Doctor’s Laboratory
Fishing 8 percent to stats Fish Bowl Fishing Rack Fishing Hut

The stat buffs run through all three tiers of a tradeskill. What the higher tiers add is the workbench: an Anvil you can use, a Forge, an Arcane Forge, a Repair Bot that also repairs. Herbalism grows herbs from planted seeds at tier 2 and combines seeds into rarer ones at tier 3. Mining spawns a common node over time. Skinning hands out Track Beasts.

Cooking is the odd one out. Its kits do not buff a stat; they decide how much else fits in the camp, from 3 extra features at tier 1 to 10 at tier 3.

How much each buff is worth in numbers, and whether the values survive the beta, Blizzard has not said.
