EverQuest Legends Jewelcrafting Guide

Tradeskill1 to 200Jeweler's Kit

Jewelcrafting sets gems into metal bars to make rings, earrings, and other jewelry, and it is the go-to skill for wearable stat and mana gear you can also sell. It levels by working up the metals, silver to electrum to gold to platinum, pairing each bar with a progressively better gem.

How Jewelcrafting works

Every combine happens in a Jeweler's Kit, found near the tradeskill merchants in most towns. Your Intelligence or Wisdom (whichever is higher) governs your chance to gain a skill point, and a failed combine keeps the container but loses the ingredients, so buy your materials in bulk and expect some waste on the way up.

Each metal tier covers a wide band by pairing the same bar with a better gem, so buy bars in bulk and step the gem up as your skill climbs. Velium jewelry is not in EQL yet.

Where to get the materials
  • Metal bars (silver, electrum, gold, platinum). Smelted from ore, or bought from jewelry and general goods merchants.
  • Gems (malachite, agate, quartz, jade, topaz, opal, ruby, emerald). Vendor gems for the low end; better gems drop from mobs or come from mining and cutting.
  • Jeweler's Kit. Bought from tradeskill merchants in the major cities.
