Blacksmithing 375-450
Blacksmithing becomes even more exciting with the introduction of socketting at 400. More importantly, it now has even more impactful crafted epics for warriors and paladins irrespective of their talent specs.

To begin this Blacksmithing 375-450 guide proper, let's check out the respective trainers location:

Alliance:
Rosina Rivet - 59,63 in Valgarde, Howling Fjord.
Argo Strongstout - 57,66 in Valiance Keep, Borean Tundra.

I found a really GREAT recipe to get my Blacksmithing from 375-425 by just making the same item!

Plans: Reinforced Cobalt Chestpiece
Binds when picked up
Requires Blacksmithing (375)

Use: Teaches you how to make a Reinforced Cobalt Chestpiece

Reinforced Cobalt Chestpiece
Binds when equipped
Chest Plate
1545 Armor
+47 Strength
+64 Stamina
Durability 115 / 115
Requires Level 77

Equip: Improves critical strike rating by 38 (1.03% @ L77).
Equip: Improves your resilience rating by 43 (0.65% @ L77).


Requires Cobalt Bar (4)

375 415 420 425

Yup. For only 4 Cobalt Bars (Cobalt Orex4), you can get from 375-425. Obviously, when you hit yellow/green it isn't a guaranteed point but none the less, its a VERY cheap item to make.

______________________________________________________

Where to get the recipe?

Since the recipe is BoP, you will have to farm it. Wowhead says its a 1% drop rate but that is not accurate at all since they are calculating ALL kills but this recipe only drops for blacksmiths. I got mine after about 25 kills.

Venture Co. Excavator
Level: 75 - 76
React: A H
Health: 10,635 - 11,001






______________________________________________________

Notes - PROFIT POTENTIAL

On my server. Cobalt Ore sells for 50 gold for a stack of 20. In that stack of 20 I can make, 5 of these. The chest pieces you make can be disenchanted and with the right luck, you could break even or better yet, PROFIT off this.

Disenchanting

75% Chance - Infinite Dust x 3.5
20% Chance - Greater Cosmic Essence x 1.5
5% Chance - Dream Shard x 1


My Server = 9-10 Gold Per Chest Piece

Infinite Dust x1 = 6 Gold
Great Cosmic Essence x1 = 25 gold
Dream Shardx1 = 25g

AT THE VERY LEAST YOU BREAK EVEN! Profit Potential for sure!

Anyways. This really helped me out so I thought I would share it. Best of luck!

300 - 315
Imperial Plate Boots (18 x Thorium Bar) x 15

315 - 320
Imperial Plate Chest (20 x Thorium Bar) x 5

Alternatively you could do the following as suggested by Peavy on EU-Al'Akir:

300 - 320
Enchanted Thorium Blades (2 x Enchanted Thorium Bars, 6 x Thorium Bars, 1 x Rugged Leather) x 20
This really depends on how easy and/or cheap it is to get Enchanted Thorium Bars on your server.

320 - 325
Fel Iron Chain Tunic (9 x Fel Iron Bar) x 5

325 - 330
Lesser Rune of Warding (1 x Adamantite Bar) x 10

330 - 340
Adamantite Cleaver (8 x Adamantite Bar) x 10
N.B. This is a limited supply recipe sold by either of the following:
Aaron Hollman - Shattrath City
Arras - The Exodar
Eriden - Silvermoon City

340 - 350
Lesser Rune of Shielding (1 x Adamantite Bar) x 20
N.B. This is a limited supply recipe sold by either of the following:
Mari Stonehand - Wildhammer Stronghold (Shadowmoon Valley)
Rohok - Thrallmar (Hellfire Peninsula)

350 - 360
Adamantite Weightstone (1 x Adamantite Bar, 2 x Netherweave Cloth) x 20
Requires Honoured rep with cenarion Expedition, which is fairly easy to get.

From 360 onwards it gets tough to get recipes that will skill you up, as trainers won't teach you anything worthwhile. Everything that will skill you up past 360, is either a random drop pattern or a rep reward. The two best and cheapest ways are to get Scryers or Aldors rep.


Aldor's Rep Path

360 - 370
Flamebane Gloves (8 x Fel Iron Bars, 4 x Primal Water, 4 x Primal fire) x 10
Requires Aldor honoured rep to buy pattern and it's BoP

370 - 375
Flamebane Breastplate (16 x Fel Iron Bars, 6 x Primal Water, 4 x Primal Fire) x 5
Requires Aldor revered rep to buy pattern and it's BoP



Scryer's Rep Path

360 - 370
Enchanted Adamantite Boots (3 x Hardened Adamantite Bars, 12 x Arcane Dust, 2 x Large Prismatic Shards) x 10
Requires Scryer honoured rep to buy pattern and it's BoP

370 - 375
Enchanted Adamantite Breastplate (4 x Hardened Adamantite Bars, 20 x Arcane Dust, 4 x Large Prismatic Shards) x 5
Requires Scryer revered rep to buy pattern and it's BoP


Alternatively, you could keep running Auchenai Crypts for the Felsteel Gloves plans as follows:

361 - 375
Felsteel Gloves (6 x Felsteel Bars) x 15



Approximate Materials Required

Aldor's Rep Path

370 X Thorium Bars (or 120 if you made Blades)
199 x Fel Iron Bar
130 x Adamantite Bar
40 x Netherweave Cloth
70 x Primal Water
60 x Primal Fire

If you made Enchanted Thorium Blades instead Imperial Plate Chest, add the following:
40 x Enchanted Thorium Bars
20 x Rugged Leather


Scryer's Rep Path

370 X Thorium Bars (or 120 if you made Blades)
39 x Fel Iron Bar
130 x Adamantite Bar
40 x Netherweave Cloth
50 x Hardened Adamantite Bars (That's 600 x Adamantite Bars)
220 x Arcane Dust
40 x Large Prismatic Shards

If you made Enchanted Thorium Blades instead Imperial Plate Chest, add the following:
40 x Enchanted Thorium Bars
20 x Rugged Leather
