Jewelcrafting leveling guide
Jewelcrafting in MoP Classic runs from 525 to 600 on gems from prospecting Ghost Iron Ore, which makes Mining the natural partner. The trainer adds new necklaces and rings at 525, 530, 535 and 545, and each gives several points. Counts are approximate: a recipe can turn green a few points earlier or later.
What to gather or buy

The uncommon gems are Lapis Lazuli, Tiger Opal, Sunstone, Roguestone, Alexandrite and Pandarian Garnet. Rare gems come from prospecting too, and from the auction house.

Trainers and tips
- Zen Master Jewelcrafting is taught by the jewelcrafting trainers in the capital cities from character level 80. Mai the Jade Shaper in The Jade Forest is the only trainer who teaches every recipe.
- The gem research has a daily cooldown and teaches a new rare cut each time.
- Necklaces and rings are usually easier to sell than cut gems, so prefer them where you can.
