WoW Forever profession fixes: Campfire Kit, Salvager and skill-ups
Cooking 90 Campfire Kits, Arcane Salvager rod requirements, Coarse Grinding Stone skill-ups and tradable raid ammunition in the November 10 profession fixes.
Three requirements worth checking again
If a profession tool or camp recipe stopped you progressing in WoW Forever, check it again after the November 10 hotfixes. Blizzard has changed the Journeyman Campfire Kit placement requirement, the tool needed to craft Arcane Salvager and the skill-up range for Coarse Grinding Stone.
These are useful changes while leveling because they can remove a reason to buy extra materials or postpone a craft. Check the specific recipe before continuing an older shopping list.
| Recipe or tool | Listed change |
|---|---|
| Journeyman Campfire Kit | Placement now requires Cooking 90 instead of 140. |
| Arcane Salvager | Crafting requires a Runed Golden Rod instead of a Runed Truesilver Rod. |
| Coarse Grinding Stone | Can provide skill-ups to 90 instead of 75. |

Journeyman Campfire Kit now matches Cooking 90
The placement requirement now matches the recipe’s Cooking 90 requirement. If you could make a kit but were blocked from placing it, this is the mismatch Blizzard says it has corrected.
Our advice is to try the kit you already have before buying ingredients for a replacement. The note changes the skill requirement for placement. It does not announce a new camp buff, longer duration or extra experience bonus.
Arcane Salvager gets two separate corrections
The Salvager’s required crafting tool changes to a Runed Golden Rod. Its disenchanting bonus should also apply correctly to lower-level enchanters.
Check both parts if this was holding you up: whether you have the correct rod to craft it, and whether the tool’s bonus is working afterwards. The notes do not give a new percentage or guarantee a particular material from each disenchant.
Enchant Boots - Lesser Spirit and Enchant Bracer - Lesser Spirit now give their stated Spirit bonus instead of Resist All. This is a correction to the applied stat, so inspect the enchant before replacing an item because its previous behaviour seemed wrong.
Coarse Grinding Stone has a longer skill-up window
Blizzard extends its skill-up range from 75 to 90. That makes it worth checking if your Blacksmithing is in that band and you have Coarse Stone left over.
A recipe being capable of granting skill does not mean every craft guarantees a point. Check the recipe’s current difficulty and compare material costs before committing to a large batch.
Raid ammunition and Fishing Racks
Swiftstrike Shot and Swiftfeather Arrow are no longer bind-on-pickup. Blizzard says they remain unavailable until raids unlock, but announced the binding correction because it can affect profession choice. Do not choose Engineering solely on the assumption that this ammunition must be crafted personally.
Fishing Racks also have a fix for one condition mismatch that stopped eligible players receiving lures. Blizzard explicitly says other rack problems remain, including some “There is no loot” errors. This is a partial fix, not a claim that every rack now works.
