With the release of the World of Warcraft expansion back, The Burning Crusade, we have now seen the arrival of two brand new races: the Dranei and Blood Elves. But if that was not enough we also have a fantastic new profession in the mix in the shape of jewelcrafting alongside the other various challenges and characters brought by WoW's new Burning Crusade add on package.

So what is jewelcrafting? As the name suggests, it is a profession involving the making or crafting of jewels like rings and necklaces which can be used for magic, combat or for making gold either by trading it with other characters or selling at the auction house. Jewelcrafting is a profession that you can practice everywhere in the game not in specific location only. Also any character, whether he/she is a jewelcrafter or not, is able to benefit with the jewelry a jewlcrafter makes, and this is what makes it such a valuable trade profession. To perform your jewelcrafting graft, the equipment that is needed is among other things enchanting mats and alchemy mats. All these jewelcrafting items are widely available from any of the trade vendors in the game.

The best second profession to use with Jewelcrafting is Mining. This will provide you with the ore needed for Jewelcraftng. Also, while mining, you will also have the ability to do some advantageous prospecting for gems and stones. The latter two are needed for the making of statues that will come in very handy to heal yourself while in combat. Prospecting, by the way, is an ability that you will learn from a jewelcrafting trainer when you reach level 20.

The only limitation that jewelcrafting has is that it is only available in two cities in Azeroth: Silver Moon and Exodar. This makes it difficult for races like the Dranei and Blood elves who would have to commute a long distance to learn this trade. If this is a race that you have chosen for your character then it is clearly not ideal to make the trip to learn it. To get round this you could just create a secondary character in either of these two cities to learn it, practice it, and then mail off the trinkets and necklaces to your Dranei or Blood Elf character.

Admittedly Jewelcrafting may not tick all the right boxes for world of warcraft characters in lower levels. However it becomes a worthy profession in higher levels where gems and stones made by jewelcrafting can be used in item socketing. Socketing gems have the ability of earning you some nice bonuses when different colored gems are slotted the right way and only jewelcrafters have the ability to make such gems in the game. In that respect jewelcrafting is definetely a good new profession to consider and a worthy addition to the world of warcraft challenge.

In the new World of Warcraft expansion pack, The Burning Crusade, players are able to choose from two new races. One of those new races is the blue-skinned Draenei, magic users of the highest caliber.

The Draenei are a race for the Alliance, pitting themselves against the merciless Horde. They are an ancient race, their origins dating back almost twenty five thousand years. They are derived from the Eredar, whom Sargeras coveted because of their powerful magic abilities.

Having been tempted by his offer to join his demonic horde, the leaders of the Eredar refused this destroyer of worlds. Sargeras was too powerful to face directly in open battle so those not willing to throw their lives away and join him were given the chance to go into exile. They renamed themselves the Draenei.

The Alliance race Draenei were chased and hunted for many thousands of years by the Legion. Hiding in their refuge far from their homeland, they were attacked by the orcs. The mighty demon lord that hunted them corrupted the orcs and made them fight the Draenei. This horde became his instrument of revenge and torture.

In the game of WOW: Burning Crusade, the Alliance race Draenei has six classes available to them. First is the Warrior, a primary melee combatant. The warrior is the tank of the party, the one able to withstand the most punishment and can also deal out a great amount of pain to the enemy.

Next is the Paladin, a warrior for good that also has some minor healing ability. This class can back up the Warrior in hand-to-hand fighting or heal and protect everyone in the party.

Another class is called the Hunter. The Hunter attacks foes from a distance using a variety of long range weapons like bows or black powder instruments. They are woodsmen and gatherers. Hunters have a huge advantage over other fighters by inflicting damage from far away.

The next class available to Draenei players is the Priest. Priests are very important for any party because of their powerful ability to heal and resurrect fallen warriors. Battling in the World of Warcraft massively multiple player game won't go so well if your character is dead. Priests can heal the fighters to get them back in the action fast.

A Shaman is a mystical practitioner of magic that draws power from the elements using totems and spells. They are spiritual leaders and are considered a solid hybrid in this expansion pack for WOW.

The final available class for the Draenei is the Mage, the primary magic users of any party. The Mage is a great class for those that wish to play the game alone as they can summon powerful creatures to do their bidding for them. Mages cast offensive spells that can disrupt and damage the enemy.
