By topsub on 10/12/2006 (Patch 1.12.1)
Moonsteel Broadsword: 0/4
Required Blacksmithing skill: 180

You get the plans for it from Zarena Cromwind in Booty Bay, Stranglethorn. She is located at the entrance of the old harbor authority (on the left side). This item is limited and if it's not there someone else already bought it. Respawn can be up to 1 hour so you need to be patient or buy it at times where less people are playing. I have also seen it at the auctions house for 1+ gold.

Big Black Mace: 0/2
Required Blacksmithing skill: 230

You need to buy the Artisan blacksmithing training from the master goblin in Booty Bay, Stranglethorn. The training costs 5 gold. After that, when your skill is 230, you can learn the recipe big black mace from him.

Heavy Mithril Axe: 0/2
Required Blacksmithing skill: 210

You have to learn this from the goblin master in Booty Bay, Stranglethorn.

Massive Iron Axe: 0/4
Required Blacksmithing skill: 185

You have to buy the plans from Jaquilinia Dramed in Nesingwarys Expedition (the hunters camp in the north), Stranglethorn. This item is limited and if it's not there someone else already bought it. Respawn can be up to 1 hour so you need to be patient or buy it at times where less people are playing. I have also seen it at the auctions house for 1+ gold.

You must be at least level 40 and have 230 Blacksmithing skill to get this quest. Once you meet the requirements, speak to the NPC Krathok Moltenfist ( https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=11176 https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=11176 ) and choose the option ""I wish to become a weaponsmith"". After that Borgosh Corebender will give you this quest.

Is there any use for this quest now when WotlK arrivied? Isn't the stuff BS can make at level 80 avaible to all?

So there is no weaponsmiths and armorsmiths? Everyone get same stuff?
