Question

Answer 1

Don't get two accounts just for jewelcrafting! not evne two characters! You don't need to be a miner to get gems. Just buy ore from the auchion house, if you dont have the money for it, farm for gold then buy the designs.

My mage main had tailoring and Jewelcrafting, I HATED mining, and I still do. I always bought my ore, first I farmed a lot for things I knew people would buy, like primals, or essences. Buy all the designs. Buy ore for ONLY 25 gold a stack if not less, this is adamantite ore (the highest you can prospect). and prospect, cut and sell. then rinse and repeat. I did this with my mage, and I made enough money to buy myself an epix flying mount (5200g), buy one for both of my brothers, buy random purples. I'd say in total I've made 20k gold from jewelcrafting alone.

It's a hard trade to get into, but once you get to max skill and with some decent designs (solid star of elune, living ruby designs) it really becomes worth it.

Answer 2

Jewelcrafting requires more than just jewels; you need metal bars and stone as well. Either way, it's just not practical to take jewelcrafting without mining, unless you have another character or guild funding you. You can find some of the lesser stones in random chests or boxes, particularly in dungeons, but I think some of the higher end jewels can only be found (or easily found) by prospecting (breaking up ores).

Answer 3

If you want to be a jewler, I would suggest two accounts. The first account would be a miner and smither, and the second one would focus primarely on jewl crafting. Jewls are most commonly found by miners but can also be found in loot of a defeated enemy.
