After getting a trainer, you would need to pick a secondary profession. You do have lots of other options.

To start the actual process of enchanting, let's work on an Enchant Bracer, which is worn on the wrist to deflect objects. This recipe requires strange dust and lesser magic essence. If you still don’t have these items, purchase them from the auction house or from a vendor.

Once you have with you the items, open up the spellbook and and look for the enchanting window. Just follow the instructions and you’ll have your first enchanted item that is for level 1. Just get on with it 'til you get past level 300.

Disenchanting

Disenchanting an item may be necessary at times so you can collect the special dusts and poweders that you need. Just open you Spellbook and select disenchant. Hover your mouse over the item you want to disenchant. Completing disenchantment may take you a few minutes and, again, you will not be able to undo the process once it starts.

Disenchanting items is the most efficient way to get dust and other items for your enchanting recipes. Here’s a quick guide to help you get the items you need:

Dust – Green Armor

Essence – Green Weapons

Shard – Blue Items

Nexus Crystal – Purple Items (up to 60)

Void Crystals – Purple Items (after level 60)
