Since Blizzard announced the upcoming expansion, there has been much talk about the new things, races, abilities, items and of course, two new professions.

Each expansion in WoW introduced new professions – Burning Crusade gave us Jewelcrafting, WotLK Inscription. Cataclysm will introduce Archaeology and Reforging latest crafting improvement. Click here for more on WoW Archaeology and Reforging Leveling Guide

Archaeology profession

Archaeology is announced as a fourth secondary profession, unique in that it will allow a brand new customization of existing characters. Players who learn Archaeology will be able to research the ruins in all of the zones and search for the antiques just like real Archaeologists would do.

Through their research of the ruins, Archaeologists will be able to gather various unique artifacts and make notes. With the use of these artifacts, Archaeologists will be able to customize their characters and with handing in these artifacts to a Titan cult they will be able to get amazing rewards such as Vanity pets, Titles, Teleportation and Items.

Depending on the path they choose, Archeologists will be able to make new discoveries which will bring new passive skills and new abilities.

In what way is this profession unique?

All WoW professions are made to follow the progressive pattern, which consists of player’s learning the skill and leveling it up to the certain skill level in order to be able to use it for the specific craft. With Archaeology this will change. It will not have the cap skill level after which the progress will no longer be possible. This profession is designed to be continuous and therefore it could be more progressive and interesting to the players.

Reforging basics

Reforging is a skill which will allow players to customize their gear. This customization will only affect the gear’s statistics and not the looks. Maybe this will be something for the future.

Reforging skill will be available to those having Blacksmithing, Engineering, Jewelcrafting, Leatherworking and Tailoring. Wearers of these professions will have an option to take the piece of the gear originating from their native professions and to change one of the stats. For example, a tailor will be able to take out some statistic from the piece of cloth armor. After altering it to the desired statistics, he will be able to return it back to the ring.

What is so special about this?

The changeable statistics will not be limited to those that are already given on the item. In example, if you have a pair of gloves with Stamina, Intelect and Spirit, you will be able to add some extra haste rating instead of Stamina.

This form of item stats manipulation will be possible on all items, not just the ones you can craft. Another good point is for the players who aren’t skilled in the given professions. They will have an option to demand service from the players who do have Reforging added to their main profession.

With the World of Warcraft Cataclysm expansion we are surely to expect a new dimension in this game. Being the most popular and outstanding mmorpg, WoW will surely not disappoint the players. There are many mmorpgs out there but still World of Warcraft’s population of players grows more as the days pass. The quality of this amazing game has made sure of it.
