Mining in WoW Forever
Miners dig ore and stone out of veins in caves, hills and mountainsides, and smelt the ore into metal bars. Blacksmiths and Engineers build almost everything from metal, so a miner never runs out of buyers.
Good first profession? Yes. Blacksmiths and Engineers always need metal, so ore and bars are easy to sell.
How it works in Classic.
What it gathers
- Ore and stone
- Mined from veins out in the world. Smiths and Engineers need both.
- Metal bars
- Smelt ore into bars at a forge. Most recipes ask for bars, not ore.
