WoW Inscription Guide 1- 525 Cataclysm

Free WoW Inscription Guide 1 - 525

Inscription is the latest primary profession added during the Wrath of the Lichking expansion. It has been underestimated by many players. Skilled scribe will be able to craft epic off hand items for caster dps and healers, relics, glyphs, scrolls and other items. The bonus benefit for scribes is seen through unique shoulder slot enchants that are better than any other shoulder enchants in the game. Bonus granted by the shoulder enchants is very good and is often underestimated since the bonus is as good as the bonus gained from leatherworking, alchemy, enchanting or everyone’s favorite; jewlcrafting.

Inscription is learned from inscription trainers located in every major city; seek help of a guard if you are having trouble locating your trainer. Once you have taken inscription as your profession you should level it up as quickly as possible with minimum of cost. Learning inscription will cause you to learn milling as well. Milling is a skill allowing you to mill herbs into pigments which are used to craft inks. Inks are the main material for inscription. Different herbs will provide different pigments.
