In order to deal more damage and have a higher chance of actually hitting your target, you\u2019ll need to increase your weapon skills.\u00a0This can only be done by going out into the wild and swinging your weapon at an enemy. Additionally, certain abilities can also contribute to your weapon skills leveling, making the process go by a little bit faster. That being said, you're still going to have to put in time and effort when leveling weapon skills as the grind to become a master weaponsmith in WoW Classic doesn\u2019t happen instantly. The cap on your weapon skills increases every time you reach a new level, so it\u2019s best to consistently keep a decent amount of points trained in certain weapons throughout the questing process, just in case you get a new upgrade that\u2019s a different weapon type from whatever you were previously using. It\u2019s likely, if not unavoidable, that during the grind to 60, you\u2019re going to be switching your main weapon (and its type) on multiple occasions.\u00a0 With that in mind, here\u2019s how to make the most out of weapon skills in WoW Classic Hardcore, as well as everything you need to know about leveling them and keeping up with your weapons training.\u00a0 How to quickly level weapon skills in WoW Classic Weapon skills are only leveled in WoW Classic whenever you hit an enemy with your weapon. While that seems simple on its own, the process becomes immeasurably more strenuous when you realize that every weapon type in the game has its own skill level associated with it. There\u2019s no such thing as freely switching between two weapon types without being proficient in them. To make matters even more complex, you\u2019ll need to individually grind levels for each type of weapon in the game. For example, if you spend the first 10 levels questing with a two-handed sword and suddenly make the switch to a two-handed axe, you\u2019re going to have to relearn how to swing that thing. Luckily, leveling weapon skills doesn\u2019t take that long, and the lower your skill is with a particular weapon type, the higher the chance the skill level increases every time you hit an enemy\u2014sort of like a catch-up system. For the sake of clarity, you don\u2019t have to re-level your weapon skills every time you get a new item, only when you equip a new item type.\u00a0 How to train new weapon skills in WoW Classic Certain races and classes in WoW classic start the game by having knowledge of a few weapon types. If you want to expand your weapon knowledge, you\u2019ll have to visit a weapon trainer. You might notice in the early stages of the game, you\u2019ll receive an upgrade that your class should be able to use, but its tooltip will be in red lettering, meaning you can\u2019t use it. This means you\u2019ll just have to visit a weapons trainer in a major city or town in order to unlock the skill to equip it. Below, you\u2019ll find tables detailing all of the weapon trainers in Classic WoW, their locations, the factions they\u2019re associated with, as well as the weapons that they\u2019ll be able to make you proficient in.\u00a0 All Alliance weapon trainers Name Location Weapon skills Bixi Wobblebonk Ironforge Crossbows, Daggers, Thrown Buliwyf Stonehand Ironforge Fist Weapons, Guns, One-handed Axes, One-handed Maces, Two-handed Axes, Two-handed Maces Ilyenia Moonfire Darnassus Bows, Daggers, Fist Weapons, Staves, Thrown Woo Ping Stormwind City Crossbows, Daggers, One-handed Swords, Polearms, Staves, Two-handed Swords All Horde weapon trainers Name Location Weapon skills Ansekhwa Thunder Bluff Guns, One-handed Maces, Staves, Two-handed Maces Archibald The Undercity Crossbows, Daggers, One-handed Swords, Polearms, Two-handed swords Hanashi Orgrimmar Bows, One-handed Axes, Staves, Thrown, Two-handed Axes Sayoc Orgrimmar Bows, Daggers, Fist Weapons, One-handed Axes, Staves, Thrown, Two-handed Axes Is it worth it to train weapon skills in WoW Classic Hardcore? Ultimately, training your weapon skills is something you should do when making a Hardcore character, but only when you have enough gold to do so. Training your weapons costs 10 silver for each new weapon type you want to train, so be sure to spend your money sparingly. You\u2019ll want to have enough money saved up for items, resources, and spells to buy at the trainer, so don\u2019t go around buying training for all the weapon types in the game because you can. It\u2019s ultimately not worth it, especially early on in your leveling journey when in-game currency is at a premium.\u00a0 Related: The top 10 quests every WoW Classic Hardcore player should avoid at all costs You should only really be prioritizing the weapon skills that you know you\u2019re going to use while leveling. For example, if you\u2019re a Hunter, you definitely need to make it a priority to level up your proficiency with bows and guns, while Warriors should be investing gold into weapon skills for two-handed weapons like axes, swords, and maces. Casters don't really have to worry too much about leveling weapon skills unless they're using wands as part of a DPS build.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/WoWClassic-GoldshireBlacksmith.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944294"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=944294"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944294\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":944375,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944294\/revisions\/944375"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/944301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=944294"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=944294"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=944294"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=944294"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=944294"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=944294"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=944294"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
