SamadanTSMYouTubeTwitchShadowlands Base Legendary Itemsu/Manthieusextensive guide as to what are the best slots
So, I am slowly finishing off any loose-ends of my profession testing on beta and have ticked one very important item off the list.

Just how many materials, and how many Base Legendary items you need to craft to reach rank 4 in each profession.

TL:DR 15/8/5

Reciently Blizzard split the armor peices into catagories and gave them all different crafting costs. This took the somewhat simple system and put it in the blender. (feel familiar to anyone?)

This has created a large delta between base legos of similar rank in terms of crafting cost and is probably going to give players more to think about when they decide which armor slot to use for their legendary item. Win Win for goblins though in my opinion as this results in a wider selection of the items selling, rather than a simple, "Pick chest because of more secondary stats" cookie cutter meta.

I have put together a spreadsheet of all you should need to know, if you wish to craft base legendaries, or simply need the information if your guild plans to create a "plan of action" between yourselves on who makes what.

"Manthieus Shadowlands Cheat Sheet"

If you wish to edit any of the values you can save a copy locally. File -> Make a copy.

You should only ever need to adjust values in YELLOW boxes.

I talk a little more about the topic over on YouTube for those who enjoy video content.

If you have any question or suggestion on things to add that could be helpful please let me know. Twitter is best for me personally, https://twitter.com/manthieus

Hope this is helpful and good luck in Shadowlands

Manthieus
They've made the total mat cost low enough, and the ash timed gated enough, that I suspect the only real profits (outside of first week volatility, and demand outstripping supply), are going to be on rank 4.

The sheer amount of rank 1s, and 2s, are going to make those almost worthless. You might see some profits at 3(casual crafters might give up after bleeding hold at 1 and 2). But I think over scales of weeks, maybe months, lego profits are going to be dumpster tier. This leveling gimmick just isn't tedious or obstructive enough to keep supply low.

Edit:. Think about how little time would be needed to plop out at these legendaries once you've done the grind. It's a trivial amount of effort in the case of leather. Probably not much better for tailoring, of 4x2 groups are a thing in SL. Ore based crafting might take longer to collapse, by virtue of it being harder to just grind out a 1k stack of ore, vs a 1k stack of leather.Yes but those really don't impact the crafting cost, just the final cost of the item. Say you grind up ore/cloth/leather that sells for 100k on the AH to craft an item that you sell for 101K. Yes, that is 101K but you earned 100K from your farming and 1K from your crafting.

But you are certainly correct that quickly the number of people who can easily plop these out will rise and thus profits fall since the pain and limits are in getting there. Once you have it, it is just buy the mats, press the craft button, and put it on the AH. No gating, no expulsum, just a rush to the bottom.Shadowlands Rep-Gated Recipesu/tuazo
There are now more recipes in Shadowlands which are locked behind Reputation. Here they are broken down by profession:

All Crafting Professions

Crafter's Mark II - requires Cordial with Ve'nari in the Maw

Alchemy

Recipe: Eternal Cauldron - requires Revered with Night Fae Note: This is a BoP item.

Recipe: Shadestone - requires Honored reputation with The Avowed. Note: This is a transmute and shares a daily cooldown with Bag of Anchors.

Blacksmithing

Plans: Shadowsteel Helm - requires Honored with The Ascended

Plans: Shadowsteel Pauldrons - requires Honored with The Undying Army

Cooking

Recipe: Feast of Gluttonous Hedonism - required Revered reputation with Court of Harvesters.

Enchanting

Formula: Sacred Shard - requires Honored with Night Fae

Engineering

Schematic: PHA7-YNX - requires Exalted with The Ascended

Schematic: Wormhole Generator: Shadowlands - requires Honored with The Undying Army

Inscription

Technique: Codex of the Still Mind - requires Friendly with The Ascended

Technique: Contract: The Ascended - requires Revered with The Ascended

Technique: Contract: The Undying Army - requires Revered with The Undying Army

Technique: Contract: The Wild Hunt - requires Revered with Night Fae

Technique: Contract: Court of Harvesters - requires Revered with Court of Harvesters

Jewelcrafting

Design: Revitalizing Jewel Doublet - requires Honored reputation with Court of Harvesters

Leatherworking

Tailoring

So a bit of clarification for people, these are not covenant-locked reputations. These are the zone reputations that everyone can earn. Where it says Night Fae it should read The Wild Hunt. So what covenant you are doesn't affect any of these recipes.How to make Glyph of Lavish Servings in Pre-Patchu/Hikons Glyph of Lavish Servings
Made a guide for how to make the Glyph of Lavish Servings in prepatch since you can't do it anymore with a mage table.

Video:

tl;dr queue for Ashran, go to the top of the tower north or south of base, talk to npc for Conjured Mana Bun, craft glyph! :)

I sold one on my full pop for 50k (shown in video) and I've made millions off people trying to reset since they think these can't be made anymore.

According to info i found online: "This recipe is obtainable by Mage scribes at 175 inscription from BFA. When creating a refreshment table, in a group, the Mage has a chance to proc this recipe. The recipe itself is auto-learned by mages, BUT an extra technique is created which is BoE, which a mage can then sell or trade.

If you are not a mage but a scribe who wants this, you have to either buy the recipe on the AH or have a mage alt learn inscription and level it up and get to making tables"Important Changes to EnchantingManthieusSoul DustSacred ShardEternal CrystalFurther Reading/r/woweconomyDiscord ServerTwitch@SamadanPlaysWoW

评论来自 KiskaVelenUSHey Perculia. :) Care to speculate on what will happen to WoW tokens, as far as price in gold, in the run up to the XPack and after it arrives?评论来自 eurekaelevenHey, I was planning to go Mining + Enchanting to start off, then swapping Enchanting for Blacksmithing to begin legendary construction. Will I be able to keep enchanting until week 2 Torghast, and seamlessly swap to Blacksmithing to craft my legendary? Or is there any grinds associated with it that I would be better off getting out of the way early and just forgo enchanting for a bit?

Thanks for reading.评论来自 sweetdandelieI have to say I am a little disappointed with the changes to enchanting. The ability to take an abundance of smaller reagents and craft them into the larger ones was exciting. Who doesn't end up with tons of smaller reagents at the end of an xpac? I am my guild's enchanter. Poor choice to limit it! I cannot believe there are people campaigning for this change!评论来自 ApmacSo crafting rank 2 and 3 is literally useless.评论来自 wingramI'm not happy with the enchanting changes either. Eternal Crystals are needed for a lot of the better enchants. Disenchanting lower level gear (like 129 or less) only yields soul dust. Disenchanting 151 gear results in some soul dust plus a Sacred Shard or two. So how do we get Eternal Crystals if we can no longer combine the Sacred Shards? Do we need to disenchant legendaries?评论来自 BethiaWhat is ToF as in the spreadsheet description: "Can be started at lvl 50 via ToF."评论来自 HaelthyrWhat is ToF as in the spreadsheet description: "Can be started at lvl 50 via ToF."评论来自 AlorielasI'm not happy with the enchanting changes either.

I never had to run Mythic+ dungeons or raids to level up Enchanting.评论来自 halgar737Thankfully Manthieus was on the case to sort out enchanting, otherwise we would have been blindsided by the latest changes. Kudos!评论来自 Gwiezoops, guess I should have been listing glyphs this week, the spike didn't reach that high for my realm, but it was several times the typical price.评论来自 carriebotI have to say I am a little disappointed with the changes to enchanting.
