Enchanting leveling guide

Enchanting in Cata Classic runs from 450 to 525 on Hypnotic Dust and Celestial Essences from disenchanting Cataclysm gear. Several steps give more than one point per enchant, so the counts are lower than in earlier expansions. Counts are approximate: a recipe can turn green a few points earlier or later.

What to gather or buy

Material	About
Hypnotic Dust	470
Lesser Celestial Essence	10
Greater Celestial Essence	86
Heavenly Shard	7
Elixir of Impossible Accuracy	5

The rod also needs an Elementium Rod from a blacksmith and your Runed Titanium Rod from Northrend. Elixir of Impossible Accuracy comes from an alchemist.
