TL;DR version: If you don't believe in Gemming and Enchanting your gear, you're destined and doomed to play with others who make your raiding experience long, annoying and frustrating. Enjoy your repair bills!

RAIDERS WHO DON'T WASTE TIME GEM AND ENCHANT THEIR GEAR

Sure, gems and Enchants aren't NEEDED in order to get into raiding.

Lots of people get wicked gear upgrades, but then continue to raid week after week without enhancing that wicked gear. And yes, they're still invited into raids.

But if THEY are so poorly Gemmed and Enchanted, I'll bet you can tell what the rest of the group looks like, too!

Some entry-level raiding guilds overlook an applicant's Gems and Enchants initially, but then discriminate when it comes time to build in-guild raid teams. The well-gemmed and
enchanted tend to only want to play with others of the same ilk, potentially leaving YOU on the outside.

Use this guide to shine up your gear the best you can before a raid guild application, or to shine up the gear of your new alt raider!
