Armorsmithing Blacksmithing BuildКузнечное делоnot

0-10 Изготовление доспехов - The primary objective of this Build will be to learn as many recipes as possible as quickly as possible, so immediately aiming for a Sub-Specialization is recommended. While these can be taken in any order, for the sake of the guide, we'll work from Left to Right.

10-40 Крупные латные доспехи - The nature of how Sub-Specializations unlock recipes allows Players to pump points into Крупные латные доспехи, giving small bonuses to Inspiration and Resourcefulness while also allowing Players to use Optional Reagents to specify Secondary Stats on the pieces they craft.

40-40 All Available Sub-Specializations - Players aren't actually putting any points into these Sub-Specializations (for the Chest, Shield, and Leg slots), merely unlocking them - this will teach the corresponding pattern for that Sub-Specialization.

40-50 Изготовление доспехов - Back to the start of our tree, Blacksmiths will want to put in just enough points to get them to their next Sub-Specialization unlock. We'll return here shortly, but our Knowledge Points are better spent in other places for now.

50-80 Рельефные доспехи - Pathing down the center of the tree, Blacksmiths gain small bonuses to Inspiration and Resourcefulness, while also unlocking three more recipes through Sub-Specializations.

80-80 All Available Sub-Specializations - Similar to before, Blacksmiths aren't actually spending Knowledge Points here, merely unlocking the Sub-Specializations (Helms, Shoulders, and Boots) for their armor slot patterns.

80-90 Изготовление доспехов - On our final trip back, we're now maxing out Изготовление доспехов to gain access to the last portion of the tree, and our last recipes.

90-120 Изящные доспехи - Unlocking our last three Sub-Specializations is the goal here, while also gaining a few Inspiration and Resourcefulness bonuses.

120-120 All Available Sub-Specializations - Those following this Build will be sensing a pattern: don't allocate Knowledge Points here, as our prizes (recipes for Belts, Wrists, and Gloves) are our goal.

Weaponsmithing Blacksmithing BuildКузнечное делоnot

0-10 Изготовление оружия - We're once again aiming to get to Sub-Specializations as quickly as possible, so consider these "traveling" Knowledge Points.

10-40 Клинки - Изготовление оружия Sub-Specializations function slightly differently than Изготовление доспехов, but we still want to put Knowledge Points here first. This will allow Blacksmiths to unlock Finishing Reagents quickly, lending to higher quality crafts.

40-45 Короткие клинки - While we get one recipe for free simply by unlocking this Specialization, there is another available with just a small Knowledge Point investment, so grabbing it quickly is a good choice.

45-50 Длинные клинки - The same type of situation applies here: we gain a Longblade recipe for simply unlocking this specialization, but we also gain a Warglaive recipe with five Knowledge Points allocated. Grab that recipe!

50-60 Изготовление оружия - Back to our roots! Изготовление оружия will unlock our next Sub-Specialization. Crafting speed is useful, but ultimately, crafting recipes are more useful, so aim for those before maxing out this wheel.

60-80 Оружие с длинной рукоятью - We want to unlock both Sub-Specializations, but can come back for the remaining Inspiration later - especially early on, efficient point use will be key.

80-80 All Available Sub-Specializations - This time, we won't be spending any Knowledge Points - merely unlocking Булавы и молоты and Топоры, кирки и алебарды gives us the recipes we need.

Toolsmithing Blacksmithing BuildКузнечное делоКентавры МаруукСоюз ВальдраккенаКузнечное делоnot

0-5 Особая ковка - As is tradition with the first few Knowledge Points, your true goal is unlocking a Sub-Specialization, and the Skill bonus here is certainly helpful.

5-35 Изготовление инструментов - Our first stop in learning all Specialization recipes, this Sub-Specialization also allows Blacksmiths to create and use Блистательное озарение to boost their Skill while crafting Profession Tools.

35-45 Изготовление оружия - Swapping to another Tree, Blacksmiths must dip into the Изготовление оружия Specialization in order to learn a few recipes.

45-55 Оружие с длинной рукоятью - We'll return to Оружие с длинной рукоятью shortly, but for now, we want to open up a Sub-Specialization.

55-65 Булавы и молоты - A new Hammer is our prize here, along with a small Skill bonus on the way to investing 10 Knowledge Points.

65-75 Оружие с длинной рукоятью - Our second trip back to this Sub-Specialization leads us to unlocking the last Sub-Specialization we need in the Изготовление оружия tree.

75-85 Топоры, кирки и алебарды - We only put 10 Knowledge Points in this Sub-Specialization, earning us a Pickaxe recipe for Miners.

85-95 Владение молотом - Jumping over to a third tree, we're looking for a Sub-Specialization to give us large boosts in Inspiration.

95-125 Вдохновенные планы - Вдохновенные планы will give massive boosts in Insight to Blacksmiths, allowing for Skill bonuses in huge bursts. This means Blacksmiths will be able to create higher-quality Profession Tools.

Consumables & Reagents Blacksmithing BuildКузнечное делоnot

0-5 Особая ковка - We'll be returning to Особая ковка shortly, but for now, we move on to our first Sub-Specialization.

5-25 Резьба по камню - Providing strong Multicraft and Inspiration bonuses, Blacksmiths also get a bonus when crafting Stone goods: Multicraft will grant up to 50% additional items during the craft. This Sub-Specialization is incredibly powerful- who doesn't want extra consumables for free?

25-35 Особая ковка - Returning to Особая ковка, we now want a second Sub-Specialization to give us bonuses to the other main consumable we craft.

35-55 Переплавка - Investing 20 Knowledge Points into Переплавка will grant the same Multicraft bonuses to Alloys that we previously obtained for Stone goods.

55-65 Владение молотом - Heading to a different tree, we're now looking to find Resourcefulness bonuses through a Sub-Specialization.

65-95 Экономная ковка - When mass-producing Consumables and Reagents, saving materials through Resourcefulness will give you more bang for your buck. This Sub-Specialization, focusing entirely on Resourcefulness bonuses, will allow Blacksmiths to pump out even more product than anticipated.

DO NOT Following this guide for Armor or Weapons. And whoever wrote this, PLEASE update it.

I just spent a ton of gold and time doing something along these lines for Weaponsmithing only to realize it's terrible and now my character is practically useless.

If you are doing Weapon or Armor. PICK ONE (maybe two) things on the lowest level and max all the nodes down. DO NOT Generalize, SPECIALIZE.

Eg, for swords MAX WeaponSmithing + Blades + Long Blade. If you're anything less than Max you'll be super far off from being able to craft max grade gear and that's the only thing people ask for.

This guide must be rewritten as the builds are blatantly wrong. It was obviously written before anyone actually had hands-on experience with the crafting system.

Here are some problems I see:

The builds focus on getting many recipes instead of specializing, making you an undesirable crafter who physically can't max out items
The guide fails to explain how recipe difficulty, skill and inspiration interact to let you actually make decent items
There is no in-depth explaination as to what the different individual skill nodes actually do, like how Hammer Control gives +1 skill to ALL blacksmithing crafts, while something like Specialty Smithing only gives skill to specific types of crafts
The armorsmithing and weaponsmithing builds dont mention that you will also have to go into Hammer Control to further boost your skill to actually make items in high quality with infusions and missives
The guide implies that it's easy to just swap sub-specializations if specific item slots are more in demand which is blatantly false, as getting 30-60 new knowledge points is going to take at least 2 weeks if all knowledge is obtained and leaves you unable to spend those points on other useful skills
There is no mention of the different ways you as a crafter can go about achieving high enough skill to craft the most difficult of items at max rank, either by specializing in a single slot and using Illustrous Insight (unlocked at skill 30 in an individual slot), or by specializing in inspiration (Poignant Plans after Hammer Control) and relying on recrafting

Anyone who follows the armorsmithing guide will have bricked their profession and are better off learning a different one, unless they are okay with delivering low-quality crap by camping public orders to people who expect at least a little quality. The weaponsmithing one is salvageable, since the knowledge investment isn't too large, but implying that you should invest points to get recipes before finding your niche is weird. Toolsmithing and alloy smithing are actually decent builds, but there should be a much more detailed explaination on how you actually get the various recipes since some of them are locked behind a very significant amount of reputation. Also inspiration is vital!

What Huntlocker said. In reality, you won´t make any money with crafting orders for armor and weapons anyway, because every worthwile craft is gated through Искра искусности availability. So basically, only pick up blacksmithing if you want a specific item for yourself, and max out skill for that one (=120 points total, 3x30 points towards this specialization, plus 30 in hammer control). Then get tier 3 reagents and secondary effects, spam grand hunts until 25 rep for a primal infusion, voilà, ilvl405 weapon or armor piece. Beyond that, I guess it´s basically do whatever, but it will always make way more sense to specialize than to branch out.

Numbers, for anyone interested.

TL;DR, if you aren't trying to craft with missives/primal infusions, generalizing can still get you T5 gear on everything @160 knowledge. If you use them you'll only guarantee T4. If you specialize, you guarantee T5 with missive and infusion on 2 pieces of gear.

Gonna note that required skill level for a T4 guarantee is 223 skill, T5 is 280. Also going to note that Blacksmithing level also applies to base skill level (eg 90 B/s = 90 skill). If you have extra, they still apply. All totals are taken with blue accessories for +18 additional skill, primal molten armor used as the basis (allied armor requirement is 325 off rip).

If you GENERALIZE, unlocking each of your armor pieces would cost you 120 knowledge. Crafting them would get you to ~239 skill assuming max bs lvl (if you can get people to accept T3 gear from you, congrats, you've got 27 skill and +27 B/s, which should help you max out much easier). You would then need to max hammer control with another 30 knowledge. This gets you 40 skill and inspiration bonuses, total of 297 skill @150 knowledge. ~~You then just need 1 point in any piece of armor for max craft without any reagents, 9 for all of them, and a total of 159 knowledge (i'm rounding to 160 for ease).~~ Edit: Realized my numbers were off because T3 primal molten alloy, depending on recipe, can give you 3-5 more skill than T1 for each one used. Total skill adjusted, and you can still guarantee T5 and may have room for a missive with maxed hammer control and all T3 alloy. Needing to inspire for a primal infusion is still true.

If you SPECIALIZE, you get 50 additional skill in one piece of armor. You spend 120 knowledge maxing hammer control and your armor of choice, but it does give you 329 skill outright. At 150 knowledge you can do this for two, but the 10 remaining points in the third will only give you 20 skill instead of 50 (299 skill total on the last one). It should be easier to get people to take your guaranteed T5 gear, which will max your blacksmithing. Because your skill is already at the 325 cap for two, you can throw in your illustrious insight to add the embellishment as well.

Conclusion: By generalizing you trade guaranteed T5 including missives/infusions for 2 ilvls, 9 more knowledge, and the ability to craft everything yourself. While you may start your gear off a little bit weaker, if you don't care about two ilvls, this is probably an alright build for you. As we get deeper into the expansion you won't need to worry about unlocking recipes because you already did. You can get inspired and still have T5 gear, or recraft it later.

By specializing you can sell your better crafting skills to people to help make back any money you spent getting to max level and you never have to worry about a recipe being less than T5. That said, you have to rely on others to craft the rest of your gear, which limits the amount of knowledge you get in the same amount of time as someone who generalized. You don't have to waste resources on recrafting though, so your money and materials are yours to keep.

Is it just me or is it impossible to craft a 418 T5 Primal Molten Shortblade without an inspiration proc if you add missives and embellishment?

Here's my breakdown:
T5 Primal molten blade
 
Skill needed 
300 Base cost
 + 50 Concentrated Primal Infusion
+ 25 Embellishment
+ 15 Draconic Missive
—————————————————————— 
390 Skill

 Skill obtainable
+ 100 From profession level
+ 22 From crafting equipment
+ 40 From Hammer Control

Specific type:
+ 30 From Weaponsmithing
——————————————————————
+ 30 From Blades
+ 50 From Short blades
——————————————————————
+ 75 Tier 3 mats (25% of base cost)
+ 30 Illustrious Insight
——————————————————————
377 Maximum skill available

If this is correct it might be better to give up 27 skill from Hammer Control by only putting 10 points into it and max out Poignant Plans for 6% inspiration.

Adding for those who are levelling DF professions in later expansions. Splintered Spark of Awakening can still be earned in later expansions for transmog and levelling dragonflight professions. The flightstone requirement has been removed. I can confirm they can be earned per-boss by running Dawn of the Infinites, and I assume that other DF dungeons also drop them on bosses.
