Although it’s gruesome, there’s a certain artistry to skinning. Skinning a critter takes a trained, steady hand to make sure the pelt is whole and unbroken. It’s a valuable skill to have in the wild, especially if you specialize in it. Here’s a guide to leveling up Skinning Specializations in World of Warcraft Dragonflight.
Guide to Leveling Up Skinning Specializations in World of Warcraft Dragonflight
Vanilla Skinning lets you skin things. Skinning lets you harvest items like leather, hide, and scales whenever you kill wild critters in the wild, whether they’re mammals or reptiles. With skills like Leatherworking, these items can be turned into useful things or sold for a profit.
However, Skinning has several specialization trees you can follow to refine its abilities further. Here are the specializations for Skinning:
- Refiners: Abilities you can use to increase the number of items you get from Skinning and improve their quality
- Crafter: Crafts Fishing Lures, gathers meat from killed critters, and can target certain materials perfectly
- Hunter: Crafts bait and infuses it with elements for specific targets
Leveling up Your Skinning Specialization
You need to be level 25 in Skinning before you can open up any of your specializations. You can level up Skinning by using it every chance you get, which isn’t a big deal. At level 25, you’ll unlock your first specialization, then at 50, then at 100. Choose whatever specialization sounds good to you.
Leveling up your specializations requires Knowledge Points, a special kind of currency. To get Skinning Knowledge Points, you need to complete specific quests and objectives or work with trainers. You’ll get Skinning Knowledge Points when you finish these tasks. With Skinning Knowledge Points, you can unlock abilities in your preferred specialization. It’s important to think carefully before picking an ability, because Knowledge Points are nonrefundable.
Skinning and its specializations are valuable tools to have, providing crafting materials, a source of income, etc. You don’t want to cut your thumb off, so keep your eyes open.
