Blacksmithing is an extremely popular Profession amongst Warrior, and for good reason. Blacksmithing can be quite a lucrative profession, as well as enabling a Warrior to craft some of their very own items. With the right recipe drops, a Warrior can craft some of the best plate armor and weapons available for quite some time.
At level 40 and 200 skill, a Blacksmith may choose to specialize in either weapons or armor, allowing access to special recipes in that discipline. Armorsmiths will be able to craft high quality Plate Armor, whereas a Weaponsmiths can create several powerful weapons. Each has their own unique patterns and benefits, which leave many players indecisive. Luckily, Wowhead has a Guide for that!
Classic WoW Profession Guides
Our Classic WoW Profession Guides explain the most efficient ways of leveling each Profession, where the Trainers are located, as well as some of the best recipes for that Profession and where to find them! If you're interested in Blacksmithing or plan to roll Blacksmithing, our guide can help you level Blacksmithing without wasting any time farming the wrong materials or spending time crafting recipes that aren't efficient for leveling!

Armorsmith
The two biggest reasons to choose Armorsmith are
Lionheart Helm
and
Titanic Leggings
. The reason Lionheart Helm is so good is because Hit Chance is hard to come by in the early Phases of Classic WoW, and when Titanic Leggings become available, they are comparable to some of the best Plate Leggings in the entire game, even from Naxxramas. Both of these Plate pieces are also Bind on Equip, which means they sell for a lot of gold.
These professions can be quite lucrative, especially early on if you're one of the few Blacksmiths able to make them, as crafters generally charge a fee for the use of their rare recipes, even if materials are already provided. Another great thing about Armorsmith, is the ability to craft a fantastic Fire Resistance set, which goes really well on a Main Tank Warrior for Molten Core.
One really important thing to remember,
Plans: Titanic Leggings
will not drop until Phase 5, which means it isn't available right now in Classic WoW. When it does become available, many Blacksmiths will be clamoring for the Recipe, willing to spend quite a pretty penny on it. If you're the first Blacksmith on your Realm, you can make a mountain of gold crafting
Titanic Leggings

Weaponsmith
Weaponsmithing is also very useful, as it allows the creation of some important weapons. Similar to Armorsmith, the weapons created are all Bind on Equip, so selling these items or the services to craft them can also be quite lucrative, but Weaponsmiths will also specialize further, between the weapon types Swordsmith, Axesmith, and Hammersmith. Many Blacksmiths choose to specialize in Axes in order to craft
Arcanite Reaper
,
Annihilator
, and
Nightfall
. Similar to the best items available to an Armorsmith, all three Weapons are Bind on Equip, which means the Axesmith can make quite a bit of money, if they have the recipes!
These weapons in particular are highly prioritized by a variety of players. Arcanite Reaper is a fantastic pre-raid Warrior weapon, though it may eventually be replaced by various raid drops. Annihilator is an important weapon for raid off-tanks, as the proc stacks with Sunder Armor, creating an overall raid dps increase. Nightfall cannot be crafted until Phase 3, but becomes a similarly important raid weapon for the rest of Classic raiding, and many raids will have a dedicated Warrior/Shaman/Paladin using it in order for their casters to benefit from the proc, which increases all spell damage dealt to the target by 15% for 5 seconds, a significant boost to damage for any raid.

Which specialization is best?
Because the best items in each specialization are Bind on Equip, the real choice comes down to how much money can be made with each specialization. Most people will choose Armorsmith, as
Lionheart Helm
and
Titanic Leggings
are quite good, in both PvE and PvP content. Thankfully both specializations have a craftable Bind on Equip that will be desirable all the way through to the end of Classic WoW's Phases. Titanic Leggings and Nightfall are Best in Slot for many Warriors, even into Naxxramas. In an ideal scenario, the realm needs an even distribution of Armorsmith and Weaponsmith Blacksmiths, because if there are too many of one specialization, those prices will drop and the other specialization's prices will increase. So at the end of the day, which specialization for Blacksmithing you should pick honestly comes down to one thing: preference.
