Blacksmithing has reased max level to 375 as all other professions in TBC. Armorsmith and Weaponsmith specialisation did not change, however there were rumors of some easy way of changing specialisation - as of 14/11/2006 TBC beta does not give a clue if this rumor is valid.

New BoP (bind on pickup) craftable items are introduced, many of them of superior quality and most advanced one will offer possibilities to upgrade.
