How to recraft in WoW Dragonflight

With the release of Dragonflight on Nov. 28, the World of Warcraft community got revamped edition of professions. Sparing no effort and time to overhaul this incredibly outdated system, the devs introduced tons of new features the players have been begging for. So, now features like profession specializations, recrafting, and crafting orders are a reality, rather than a mere dream.

Beloved by every member of the WoW community, recrafting is a feature of any crafting profession that allows you to craft the same item without having to use the same materials all over again. Instead, you’ll only need to have the item you want to have recrafted, some basic materials, and Artisan’s Mettle. Although the main perk of recrafting your gear are definitely the reduced costs, recrafting has tons of other bonuses like increasing your item level, changing your stats, improving the item’s quality, and adjusting Optional Reagents. 

In this piece, we’ll explain all the possible ways of recrafting an item in Dragonflight, especially if you’re crafter or just a buyer, NPCs you’ll need to visit, and all the materials you’ll need to have to have an item recrafted.
