Disambig icon.png This article is about the crafting discipline. For the NPC, see Weaponsmith (vendor).

Weaponsmith tango icon 20px.png Weaponsmith is a crafting discipline that focuses on melee weapons: axes, daggers, swords, greatswords, maces, hammers, shields and spears. These are useful to all professions, but particularly to guardians, warriors, rangers, thieves, and revenants. Weaponsmiths also craft sigils and nourishments that can be used by any profession. Crafting requires the use of a crafting station.

Notes[edit]

Weaponsmiths with the appropriate PvP currencies have easy access to Ascended Harpoon Guns because the Ascended Weapon League Vendor requires Grandmaster Weaponsmith Mark to purchase the Chest of Harpoon Guns rather than Grandmaster Huntsman Marks as one would expect.
