WoW First Aid Leveling Guide – Helping Yourself and Others

First Aid is one of the three secondary professions in WoW. This profession has never been much popular since it isn’t one of the profitable or the most fun professions available. However, all good players had their First Aid skilled to the maximum.

First Aid is usually a need for any class which doesn’t have healing abilities such as Rogues, Hunters, Mages, Warlocks, Warriors and Death Knights, even though the healing classes can also have a good use of it. What is great about it is that you are able to use your First Aid skill even in PVP.

What actually do I need to use for First Aid?

With your First Aid skill you will be using bandages in order to heal yourself or remove a poison effect. This skill is to be used when you get damaged by an enemy player or npc. As mentioned before it can be used both in PVP and PVE.

How do I use bandages?

Once made bandages come in the stacks of 20. You will need to target yourself or any friendly player and then click on a bandage. A person who you are trying to bandage will need to be in range and you mustn’t move else the healing effect will stop.

Once you apply a bandage to a character, you cannot reapply it to that same character for around sixty seconds. You will be able to see the "Recently Bandaged" debuff. When that debuff disappears you will be able to apply the new bandage.

The material

Bandages are made from various types of cloth. As you progress through game and level up you will encounter different types of cloth. From any of these you will be able to make bandages.

Cloth drops from humanoids and it is the most common drop you will encounter during levelling and therefore getting your First Aid skill to the maximum won’t be a problem.

However, if you are already level 80 and somehow missed levelling this skill you will have two choices – buying the cloth on the Auction House or grinding it. If you are going for the grinding the best place for that could be low level instances and as mentioned before, groups of humanoid npcs.

How to begin?

Your career in First Aid will begin as soon as you find the First Aid trainer. The first trainer you need to seek could be found in the starting zones for each race. To train First Aid for the start you won’t need much just a fee of 10 copper. The first material used will be linen and by making the Linen Bandages you can progress to a potential skill level of 75.

After you reach 75 you will need to train for a higher skill and so on. The First Aid trainers later on could be found in any capital city. If the trainers you come across cannot teach you the skill you need, they will surely direct you to another trainer who can.

Is there any First Aid quest available?

The answer to this question is yes. In order to become an Artisan in the First Aid you will need to complete a quest called “Triage”. The objective of this quest is to save fifteen patients before some die with the use of special Triage Bandages. The quest for the Alliance players can be found in Theramore, while the quest for the Horde players can be found in Hammerfall.
