Secrets of Faydwer (SoF) Jewelcrafting Guide

Jewelcrafting is most popular in EQ amongst Enchanters since they are one of the only classes capable of Enchanting Bars as well as other neccessary items that are used in this profession. This isn't to say that the Tradeskill is pointless to level for non Enchanters, just that it will be much harder and generally more costly.

Once the Gates of Discord expansion pack goes live there's an alternative method to raising every Tradeskill in the game to 54. I believe these quests to be a waste of time, however, they teach you recipes that can't be learned anywhere else and for that reason must be done at least once to reach 350 Jewelcrafting. If you're interested in learning more about the GoD Tradeskill Quests then follow the link provided.

Dwerium Bar (100 Trivial)

Save all of these that you make for future combines, we're going to need them to reach 300.

1 Gnomish Heat Source

1 Platinum Bar

1 Raw Faycite Crystal

Oval Cut Demantoid (218 Trivial)

This recipe is extremely easy and straight forward. The Uncut gem that you need for this recipe is an uncommon drop from virtually any enemy between the levels of 1 - 70. I'd highly recommend you frequently check The Bazaar as it won't be hard for you to find this gem and many others all very cheaply priced.

Dwerium Practice Ring (274 Trivial)

Any Dwerium Practice items that you make while leveling Jewelcrafting you'll want to sell to a vendor. They aren't used in any other recipes and have no real use outside of raising your JC skill. One thing worth mentioning too is that each of the Dwerium Recipes mentioned on this page are required for reaching 350 in Jewelcrafting.

Additional Information

- If you choose to use a Draught of the Craftsman you'll have enough juice to max out two Tradeskills usually. So come prepared with a lot of materials before popping a pot!

- If you don't see any materials that you need listed in The Bazaar setup a Buyer on a day when you don't plan on playing much to buy the items you need. Mention in general chat what you're buying (and even pay double what the other barters ask to get peoples attention if you want). Maybe someone who is killing in the zones and reading general will offload their loot to you.

- Aside from the uses mentioned above it's useful for every player to max out all of their Tradeskills for tangible useful benefits. You can only acquire things like Artisan's Prize and Sacred Prayer Shawl of the Duke from maxing out your Tradeskills. Those of you whom are wondering if this is all even worth it, well now you know.

- Under "General" in the AA window get the Salvage AA as soon as you possibly can, preferably before you start raising all of your Tradeskills. It'll save you a lot of plat.

- As aforementioned every Tradeskill has a Trophy. Here is a list of all 6 quests for the Jewelcrafting Trophy.
