Magic's JC guide

Magic's jewelcrafting guide

So atm you can make this item: <https://www.wowhead.com/item=153716/jewelhammers-focus#comments> with max jewelcrafting, which lets you loot a shrine for 5-7 gems of a colour of your choice, once per day. These gems are worth ~800g atm bcos they are used for JC rings. Easy way to make gold, covers your sub for a month just with 1 character, or you can farm your ring for this/next tier. Super easy/cheap to level up on other characters too.

--- JC 1-150 ---

You need:
- ~200 uncut green quality gems
- ~70-100 uncut blue quality gems
- 15 kraken's eye

(should be like 5k gold all up)

Supply seems to be a lil low on the blue gems atm, so cut green ones until 85 skill, blue ones until 135 skill, then kraken's eyes until 150 skill. (green/blue here mean the rarity of the gem, if you are having a hard time getting blue gems you can craft kraken's at 125)

--- Quest chain ---

1. Grab quest from JC trainer at 150 skill.
2. Do quests for the gnome chick in Boralus. She sends you to get books from ppl around town.
3. Get the Stormsong shrine quest from the JC trainer and go do it.
4. After that, you get the Tirigarde and Drustvar shrine quests from the JC trainer, go do them.
4a. Tirigarde quest will make you do Tol Dagor, can just queue for it on normal.
4b. Drustvar quest makes you go get runic cores, you need to get 10 of them (1 drop per mob) and then prospect them twice. You'll get 3 of the things you actually need for the quest per prospect.
5. Next you'll get a quest to go to Dustwallow Marsh. Portal to Uldum is probably faster, then fly over. You'll get dismounted being near the island so just use water walking mount and then swim down into the cave, kill the dude and loot the thing.
6. Return to the gnome chick/JC trainer and you get the recipe.

--- Materials for the recipe ---

1. You need 10 expulsom (scrap green bracers made from tidespray linen) and 5 kraken's eyes.
2. You need a drop from the 2nd boss of Motherlode (can leave after) and a drop from last boss of Freehold (can clear straight to him). Can solo both pretty easily.
3. (the grindy part) You need 50 dust and the best place to farm it is "Ashvane" mobs in Tol Dagor normal. These mobs are only found after the 2nd boss, up to the last boss. **You must solo the instance (or at least the Ashvane mobs)** bcos personal loot. Should take 1.5-2 clears (2.5 if you're unlucky).

--- Daily gems ---

1. Go to Nazmir, look at your map, should be a quest at a shrine just outside the town. Go turn in 4 insightful rubellite (only have to do this once) and then you can interact with the shrine.
2. Now once a day you can come click on the shrine and get 5-7 scarlet diamonds. If you want laribole you need to use the shrine in Zuldazar.
