Your journey with this guide

Try a complete profession chapter before deciding whether to buy a continuation. This planned sample connects training, tools, gathering and skill milestones, using the same progress panel as a levelling route.

What’s in the guide

Planned coverage
  1. 01

    Learn and prepare

    Visit the supported trainer and check which equipment and recipes you already have.

  2. 02

    Your first ore and bars

    Gather the materials required for the opening objectives and use the normal crafting controls.

  3. 03

    Build towards 75

    Follow suitable gathering areas and skill checkpoints before the optional paid continuation.

Before you begin

  • A character of either faction able to reach the listed trainer and gathering area.
  • An available profession slot if you have not learned Mining.
  • Any tools and training funds required by the supported client.

In preparation for Forever

The existing Classic Mining sample is the development reference. Forever skill requirements and trainers still need checking.

We’re developing Wisp on Classic. This page describes the planned guide; it does not contain a released Forever route.
