How to become an Armorsmith:
When you have your Blacksmith skills up to a certain value, "expert" I think, when you talk to the BS trainer in IF choices will pop up that say- tell me more about "weaponsmith" or "armorsmith".

For Armorsmith you:
1. Declare Armorsmith
2. You will be directed to the other Dwarf by the forge about the specifics of being an Armorsmith. He gives you a quest requiring that you make 7 items: 4 ornate mithril helmets, 2 ornate mithril boots, 1 ornate mithril breast plate. But guess what? This quest is the tip of the iceberg. You don't have the recipes for these items, they are not on the BS training list, and he does not tell you where to go or who to talk to!
3. You talk to Hank the Hammer in Stormwind and complete his quest, which will open up the quest to talk to the guy in BB (by the forge outside) part of the Mithril order.
4. Talk to guy in BB who then directs you to talk to a Dwarf out in the wilderness of STV. (north of the ogre mound)
5. Gavan (in the wilderness) will have 3 quests, to get a certain amount of mithril bars, iron bars, citrine, etc. Each quest you complete gives you a recipe.
6. He will then direct you to his student (by the forge inside) studying in Gadgetzan.
7. This student will have 3 more quests, that give you more recipes. After each quest you get more recipes. At this point you are still missing the ornate mithril helmet recipe.
8. So you go to Gadgetzan, in Tanaris and talk to the Night Elf at the Forge in town. He has 3 quests which get you more recipes. One of those is the ornate mithril helmet.
9. After all of this you'll have all the recipes you need to complete the original quest: The Art of Armorsmith.
10. Now it's JUST a matter of working your tail off collecting more raw material to make the 7 items. When all is said and done you get approx 3900 XP for the original quest- The Art of Armorsmith, and a pat on the back, besides having some top notch armor. The the potential to make more.

Total mats for the entire quest line:

286 Mithril Bars
70 Iron Bars
25 Truesilver Bars
30 Coal
36 Heavy Stone
36 Solid Stone
18 Mageweave Cloth
14 Thick Leather
4 Citrine
2 Aquamarine
1 Heart of Fire

I strongly reccommend you either get friends and guildmates to help contribute mats or buying some Mithril off the auction house; otherwise you'll be on this questline forever. Aside from forging legendaries, this is probably one the most expensive questlines in mat costs in the entire game - and to be perfectly honest, it's largely not worth it without getting some good world-drop patterns unless your guild is going to funnel you the mats to get reputation so you can craft resist armor for them.

Commento di fong

Is it possible to just buy the Ornate Mithril stuff from someone who can make it? The pieces are usually up on the AH for fairly cheap.

Commento di Jessikka

One thing that's not mentioned is that Hank the Hand won't talk to you unless you have 210 Blacksmithing, that caused a lot of confusion, especially considering the Armorsmithing quest is available at 200.

Commento di Warondar

I held off on deciding to go either Armorsmith or Weaponsmith but completed a multitude of blacksmithing quests leading to these.

Just a rundown on the NPCs involved on the Horde side:
1. Orokk Omosh - Ogrimmar at blacksmith area
Learn Barbaric Iron armor patterns, and his 'Omosh Dance' hehe
2. Aturk the Anvil - Ogrimmar at blacksmith area
Learn Orcish War Leggings pattern.
3. Ox <The Mithril Order> Ogrimmar at blacksmith area (starts the whole Mithril Order quests line)
Sends you to Booty Bay to meet McGavan, and gives you a trinket (requires Blacksmithing skill 210)
4. McGavan <The Mithril Order> Booty Bay at blacksmith area
Sends you to meet Galvan the Ancient in Stranglethorn Vale
5. Galvan the Ancient - <Artisan Blacksmith of the Mithril Order>
Located in Stranglethorn Vale at 50,20. Teaches 3 Ornate Mithril patterns, and sends you to his pupil Trenton Lightammer in Gadgetzan. Also gives you a better trinket (hope you kept the 1st one) called Signet of Expertise which summons the temporary Hammer of Expertise (purple item).
6. Trenton Lighthammer <The Mithril Order> Gadgetzan at blacksmith area
Teaches you 3 more Ornate Mithril patterns (helm, breastplate, boots).
Upon completion your are inducted into the Mithril Order which he announces in /yell chat. You receive the Glimmering Mithril Insignia trinket, which required blacksmithing 225.

So, after all those I think I'm ready to choose Armorsmith or Weaponsmith. Hope this also helped you to know who to look for.

Commento di Beslan

In response to learning Armorsmith.
You dont need to select Armorsmith to learn Ornate Mithril plans.
The Armorsmith quest is just a quest to create some armor Items to "Prove your skill." He asks you right in it... "You do know how to create Ornate Mithril, dont you?"

The other quests - One you get from Hank the Hammer or Ox are for "The Mithril Order" which is where you learn the Ornate Mithril stuff. Not to mention you get a pretty sweet smithing hammer!

If you do the other quests (The Mithril order - Hank in SW or Ox in Org) you can learn Ornate Mithril and not even need to do the Armorsmithing quest. Also I think they are lower than the Armorsmith quest (Level and skill req) that you could do it before and not need to do it in one straight shot.

Commento di braagaard

i cant get the q from Hank the Hamme how can it be?

Help plzzz

Commento di hoffmani

Now you can respec from weaponsmith to armorsmith. It cost nothing but only gold. (110G total)

1) unlearn your corresponding weaponsmith "master" at Everlook of Winterspring (61,37). It costs 100G.
2) Alliance should looking for Weaponsmith trainer Ironus Coldsteel <Special Weapon Crafter> to unlearn weaponsmith.
Horde should go to Borgosh Corebender <Weaponsmith> at Orgrimmar. This step costs 10G.
3)Alliance: Then speak withMyolor Sunderfury (he stands right in the middle of the forge) he will let you choose to become weaponsmith again or turn to armorsmith. This is free and you will keep your skill level after respec.
(sry I dont know where is the conterpart horde NPC, but should be around the BS trainer)

Commento di greystoker

Commento di fourthdraven

I have spoken to the armorsmith next to the great forge in Ironforge and trained two of his items. He has never given me any quest and I have completed the blacksmithing quests for the guy in Gadgetzan. My blacksmithing is at 260. All that I want to know is why hasn't the armorsmith in IF given me the quest that I need to become and armorsmith.

Commento di Camilita

que lvl debo ser para que Gavan en STV me de mas quest? me dio solo una =(, soy lvl 54

Commento di dbot

where can i find patterns for armorsmith?is there any vendor,or something?

Commento di metalut

Can I just get someone to make these items and become an armor smith or do I have to do the long Mithril quest chain.

Commento di Gucu112

If you want to take quest from Hank the Hammer you must to have 40 level and Blacksmithing skill 210.

Commento di medich88

For the full q.chain:

Commento di mmilliken

I suggest you grab this quest as soon as you are able. I waited till I needed to be an armorsmith or weaponsmith at skill level 260. At 260 most of the items you make are grey and you get no skill for them. All the quests were grey as well, but of course that depends on your level when you get the quest, not your blacksmith skill.

For the first quest from Hank you will need 30 Iron Bars and 12 grinding stones for the 6 Golden scale bracers.

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2758 after which you will be given an insignia to be taken to Booty Bay. That quest is:

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2759 Galvan is east of the road in the norther part of Stranglethorn Vale. He is closer to te hrebel Camp flight point than Booty Bay, but of course you have to had in the quest above in Booty Bay first.

There is an upside to waiting. I have plenty of money so I bought most of the 120 bars of Mithril Galvan wants for his three quests. I already had the truesilver bars, 4 Citrines and 40 iron bars on hand. Note Galvan's first quest is 40 Mithril, 40 Iron bars. His second is 40 Mithril bars and 5 Truesilver bars and his third quest is 40 Mithril Bars and 4 Citrine.

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2761
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2762
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2763

At the end of which you will be sent to Tanaris on quest

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2764

Where 3 more quests await from Trenton Lighthammer. He is at the forge in Gadgetzan.

http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2772
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2771
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2773
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=3321

During which you will need:

Mithril Coif x2
Ornate Mithril Shoulder
Heavy Mithril Breastplate x2
Ornate Mithril Gloves
Heavy Mithril Boots x2
Ornate Mithril Pants

Material for these quests are:

Mithril Bar x110
Truesilver Bar x 3
Mageweave Cloth x 18
Thick Leather x 14
Solid Grinding Stone x 3

And of course you are nowhere near an alliance auction house. Plan ahead to bring enough materials if you are making the items. After this you go back to your home city and build the items for the original quest.

Commento di Pleuris1970

To get full XP from this quest, finish it before hitting lvl 49.

The 'master'-quest was green when I got it.

Dunno why, but the subsequent 'sub-quests' where yellow when I got them?

Commento di acuny

Is it still worth dooing the annoying quest at this stage of the game?
Does the current high end bs still differ between armor and weaponsmiths?

Commento di Malmin

I noticed that the armorsmith trainer will teach me the lower-skill (230) armorsmith items before I've finished the quest. At what point does he cut you off from training and force you to finish the quest?

Commento di ranger188

I did this quest but cant turn in the ornate armour. Does anyone know why?

Commento di amazaki

i can't create :( for 3rd quest in Tanaris1 Ornate Gloves why and i made the 2nd quest contact me at de_reaper_rogue

Commento di mokajones

What makes you the most money in the long run? Weaponsmithing or Armorsmithing?

Commento di Arkuda

It would save lots of time and money, if you will go after weaponsmith Q and then "reroll" to an armorsmith

Just compare mats needed to get armorsmith (+ count all prequests that rewards required recipies)
with those:
Total materials required to make the 12 weapons for weaponsmith (don't forget to add 100g, which will be needed to cancell your weaponsmith and pick up armorsmith instead)

x32 Steel Bar
x56 Iron Bar
x56 Mithril Bar
x16 Gold Bar

x12 Lesser Moonstone
x2 Black Pearl
x8 Shadowgem
x4 Solid Grinding Stone
x4 Thick Leather
x4 Citrine
x28 Heavy Leather
x16 Strong Flux
x16 Heavy Grinding Stone

Just did it like that and i'm a happy armorsmith, cheated trainers :P
With less quest-rewards recipies, but who cares about them in wotlk, or who would even care in Cataclysm?)

Commento di 63brob15

Upon completion of this quest you gain 4350 exp; not 1250. This is not to discredit the experience you gain from all the other quests. Don't do this quest unless you're ready to dedicate a lot of time farming mats, you're around level 60, and your blacksmithing skill is around level 240. It is possible to do it at lower levels, but very difficult. I was able to achieve it at level 42, but I started the process when I was only level 39. It took me about 4 days of 4-5 hours of work to get it done and a bunch of help from my guild mates. Again don't do this unless you have time to dedicate to it. Happy Smithing!

Commento di Paladin62

So is there any reason to do this quest? I am at 450 in BS and have not completed the quest and I have both weapons and armor I can make. I am doing Titansteel gear. Is there any point to doing it if I will just lose one or the other? If I choose weapons, I lose armor and armor loses weapons. So isn't it better to just stay where I am with both? Or will I be able to make even better gear?

Haven't u read ANYthing on the comments?

Commento di Voiletwis

Can someone tell me why I can't pick up this quest. Do I have to do the other quests to get the mats or what? I'm a lvl 49 with 229 BS.

Commento di Mallen

I have the same problem. I'm a level 80 DK with BS at 225. No quest to be found...

I've read somewhere that in Catalysm the profession specializations are going to be removed. Maybe they already erased the option to specialize in a profession? Can anyone verify whether this is indeed the case?

Edit
Found the post: http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=13200229268&sid=1

"We didn't feel like we were getting much flexibility from specializations, so they have been removed for all three of these professions. The intent was to help people diversify their profession to feel different from that of other players, but through other professions we've found systems that work better to this end, such as simply making recipes available that you can earn over time."

Commento di soydavid

You have to decide which you want with the BS trainer in IF. Then once you decide on armorsmithing or weaponsmithing, the corresponding NPC next to the anvil offers you a quest. Available at 200 lvl BS.
