Every Enchant Available in World of Warcraft The War Within
![](https://cdn.blizzardwatch.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/war-within-delves-press-kit.jpg)
World of Warcraft‘s latest expansion The War Within will take players through the depths of Khaz Algar into the realm of Azj-Kahet where we’ll battle against the machinations of the Harbinger of the Void Xal’atath. While the weapons, armor and jewelry we’ll acquire is the most important source of our stats, you should never overlook enchantments for giving your characters that extra oomph to help take down the enemy.
TWW is going to continue the new profession system from Dragonflight, which means that enchantments and other augmentations can have three different quality levels. In most cases you’ll want to aim for the highest “gold” quality, but if you need to settle for silver or bronze that’s better than nothing. Also remember that DF enchantments will continue to work, although your raid team probably won’t be happy with you if you’re still using Writs of Versatility for the fight against Queen Ansurek. Note that TWW profession-based augments universally require the target to possess a minimum item level of 350.
While the complexity of the system remains there is some streamlining with professions that started in Dragonflight and is continuing in The War Within. Professions do not have their own special set of recipes to use that provide either larger bonuses or cheaper mats when augmenting their own gear. In addition, ranged weapon enchants previously supplied by Engineering are no longer present, instead Hunters will use the same weapon enchants of other classes.
One new twist to the enchants in TWW is that some will possess a penalty in addition to their bonus; for example, the ring enchant Cursed Critical Strike provides 270 Critical Strike while reducing Haste by 80 at tier 1 quality. While sacrificing stats is rarely a good option, be sure to sim your character as sometimes it’s worth it.
The War Within weapon enchants
Weapon enchants provided by the Enchanting profession
Weapon enchants from the Enchanting profession can be divided into two categories in The War Within: those that are learned by leveling the profession, and those that come from specializations or drops — the latter are collectively known as “Authority” enchants, and will likely be more expensive to acquire as a result.

The War Within armor enchants
Armor enchants will not be available for several slots — unless the Incandescent Essence still works with our gear (don’t count on it). Similarly don’t expect the Shadowed Belt Clasp to function either and/or a replacement may arrive for it early in the expansion. The Enchantment profession remains your primary source for upgrading your gear, with the only professions of concern being either Tailoring or Leatherworking for your Leg enchants.
