How to get more Concentration in WoW: The War Within

Focus on your craft.

In WoW: The War Within, the easiest way to make the best items in the game is to use Concentration to do it. However, this newly added crafting resource is very limited in how much you can use, so the question becomes: how do you get more of it?

How to recharge Concentration in WoW: The War Within

Concentration was added to The War Within as a replacement for the RNG mechanic tied to improving profession-related crafts in Dragonflight. The total profession overhaul that came with Dragonflight shaped the current system we have now, with Concentration being the most notable improvement to it.

So, how do you get more Concentration? The truth is that there is no known method for getting more Concentration by your efforts. Concentration is finite as a resource but recharges over time on its own. There’s no way to speed this up, thus limiting the value and rarity of high-budget items a crafter can make at any given time. While this may be disappointing to read, there are benefits to it overall from a community perspective.

As just mentioned, no single crafter can always make the best items (at least not easily), which results in professions staying relevant significantly longer throughout the lifespan of an expansion. Dragonflight succeeded in doing this with its RNG-based system, but crafting items never felt great entirely dictated by how lucky you are. This is why the Concentration System was introduced.

Concentration gives you, the crafter, more control over your actual crafts. You can determine when you want to throw all your efforts into an important craft without wasting time or resources. Since using the mechanic guarantees you the next rarity of a chosen item, you will always know what your output will be the moment you hit that ‘craft’ button.
