If you wish to be a master craftsman, you will need to work hard and spend time perfecting your skills. Certain special recipes can only be collected in high level dungeons; the bosses within can sometimes hold plans for very powerful items. Once you have these recipes you will be able to create new items that you can use yourself, give to friends, help your guild, or sell to other players for a king's ransom.

Check out the many recipes which can be obtained.

Tried an "Alt"?

Now that you've powered up one character up to level 80, perhaps it's time to try out another class! It's much easier the next time around, as you now know where you're going and where to find quests and adventure. You can also spend some money to equip your low level character with powerful weapons and equipment to give yourself an edge. If you have played the Horde, you might try an Alliance character or vice versa. You can also get Heirlooms at level 80 and send them to lower level characters.

Achievements

Enter the world of Achievements where players try to earn as many awards and achievement points as they can. You can also earn mounts, pets, titles, and more. Check out achievements here.

Tried a Death Knight?

Death Knights are new to the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. You start off at level 55!
