General info - Jewelcrafting

Jewelcrafting in Legion is divided in 3 Subgroups:

  • Crafting Jewelry (necks and rings)
  • Crafting gems
  • Crafting Others (toy, lockpick jewel)

Questing
The first quest takes you to Azsuna, so that´s a good place to start leveling up and at the same time do the jewel crafting questline.

Crafting Jewelry

You can craft Necks and rings.
The ilvl on all rings and necks are 815 
All crafted necks and rings have only stamina BUT:

  • Some can be crafted with a meta socket 
  • The meta socket bonus gives a secondary stat depending on what ring/neck it is:
    - Versatility
    - Hate
    - Mastery
    - Critical Strike

    But the stamina (687) will be the same no matter if it is rare or epic.
