In World of Warcraft, the Enchanting profession enables players to enchant items to add stat boosts such as increases in strength, increased spell damage, or additional resistance to specific types of magic. Enchanters are also capable of crafting items such as Mana Oils, Wizard Oils, and some wands.
Though Enchanting goes well with any other profession, it’s best paired with Tailoring since you can disenchant most of the cloth you make as a Tailor. Training Enchanting can get expensive as your skill level goes higher, so you might want to buy WoW Gold to ensure that you have enough to fund your career as an Enchanter.
Proficiency
As with all professions, Enchanting has six proficiency levels, which are listed in the table below. As you increase your character’s level and your Enchanting skill level, you can increase your Enchanting Proficiency by visiting an Enchanting Trainer. While any Enchanting Trainer in Azeroth can teach you Apprentice to Artisan Enchanting, you can only learn Master Enchanting in Outland or Northrend, and Grand Master Enchanting in Northrend.
Training costs WoW Gold, and the prices differ depending on whether you chose Enchanting as your Primary or Secondary profession.

Leveling Enchanting
The first thing you need to do is to visit an Enchanting Trainer in one of Azeroth’s main cities to learn Apprentice Enchanting. This section contains a table that shows you which items to create to level up your Proficiency in the fastest, most efficient manner.
Most of the formulas for the items listed below can be learned from Enchanting Trainers, but a few have to be obtained elsewhere.
If you haven’t opted to take up Tailoring as a secondary profession or if you’re just not feeling up to looking for reagents, you may want to buy WoW Gold so that you can purchase them from other players.
