In The War Within Season 3, players can craft pieces of gear reaching 720 item level, surpassing most gear available in the game. However, the process isn’t always straightforward, and many of the challenges aren’t immediately clear to newer crafters.
To help, we’ve prepared a simple, step-by-step gear crafting guide that makes the journey smoother and ensures you get the most out of your upgrades.
Gear craft in War Within Season 3

Let’s begin with the basics of gear crafting in The War Within.
Below, you’ll find a table showing all the possible item levels for craftable gear. The final quality depends on several factors, and you’ll also need to supply additional reagents. We’ll go over all the key details further down.
Pro tip
We recommend crafting a gear piece that is not in the Head, Shoulders, Chest, Hands, or Legs slots, since these are your Season 3 tier gear slots with extra set bonuses.
Check our TWW Season 3 BiS lists to find the optimal crafted gear for your build.
WoW Crafting quality table
Item Quality | Enchanted Weathered Crest | Spark of Starlight only | Enchanted Runed Crest | Enchanted Gilded Crest |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 662 | 678 | 691 | 707 |
2 | 665 | 681 | 694 | 710 |
3 | 668 | 684 | 697 | 714 |
4 | 671 | 688 | 701 | 717 |
5 | 675 | 691 | 704 | 720 |
WoW Spark of Starlight
You can obtain a Spark of Starlight by combining two Astral Ignitions and 250 Valorstones. Astral Ignitions can be farmed in Delves, Mythic+, weekly quests, and from raid bosses. You can obtain one Fractured Spark of Starlight every week from these activities.
WoW Missives
Missives are reagents created through the Inscription profession that let you choose secondary stats (such as Haste, Mastery, Versatility.) They come in multiple tiers, each offering different levels of customization. For the best results, you’ll want to use Algari Missives with 3 quality level. You can usually find Missives in steady supply at the Auction House.
Here are some examples of Missives:
WoW Enchanted Crests

You can purchase all types of Enchanted Crests from Llande or Syenite in Dornogal. The ones you’ll want to focus on are the three Enchanted Crests from TWW Season 3:

WoW Embellishments list
Embellishments are special effects that either come built into crafted gear or can be added during the crafting process. They provide significant bonuses, making them highly valuable upgrades. However, they are limited by the Unique-Equipped: Embellished (2) restriction, which means you can only wear two pieces of Embellished gear at the same time.

You can get all Embellishments from the Auction House.
Maximum craft quality

If you want higher item level gear, it’s essential to request the maximum quality when crafting. The only way to guarantee this is by placing a Personal Order. You can send it to your own alt, a guildmate, or even a stranger you find in LFG.
How to craft 720 ilvl gear

Here is the complete WoW gear crafting guide, showing how to craft 720 ilvl gear and explaining every step.
Step 1 — Choose what to craft
Visit Clerk Gretal in Dornogal and choose the gear piece you want to craft.
Here are Crafting Orders NPC coordinates in Dornogal:
/way 58.0 56.6
Step 2 — Provide Reagents

Get one or two Spark of Starlight for the gear piece.
Get Quality 3 reagents required for your gear piece (alternatively, you can let the crafter provide the reagents, but it will cost more). You can craft the reagents yourself or purchase them from the Auction House.
Step 3 — Provide Optional Reagents

There are three optional reagents you need to obtain in order to craft 720 ilvl gear.
- Customize your best secondary stats with a Quality 3 Missive crafting reagent (crafted by Inscriptionists and available on the Auction House).
- Buy an Enchanted Gilded Ethereal Crest from Llande in Dornogal for 60 Gilded Ethereal Crests. Check our How to get Gilded Ethereal Crests post for more info about Gilded Ethereal Crests farm.
- Add a Quality 3 Embellishment with the best effect for your build (available on the Auction House or with various professions).
Step 4 — Make Personal Order and Legendary Quality

The only guaranteed way to craft a 720 item is to make its minimum quality Legendary. This option is only available if you place a Personal Order. If you don’t have a required alt, you can ask your guildmates or simply use LFG.
Step 5 — Wait for your gear piece
Send the request and wait for your order to be completed. You will receive your gear piece in the mailbox.
