Note that it is not possible to "level up" using this recipe with all the extra shards you have lying around. By the time you are high enough to learn it, the enchant will already be gray to you.

This is possibly a decent money maker for an enchanter. We already know its near impossible to turn a profit after skilling to 375, and having to create 10 different rods that are more and more expensive as you go.

BUt, check the AH frequently... these shards can go as low as 2G depending if several people are underbidding each other.

If you can buy 3 of these, for cheaper then the price of a large Prismatic.... Do it, create a large prismatic, and go make a profit.

Although webtekkie is correct that this recipe will be gray when you get it, I managed to still get skillups from it. I leveled 136-140 using this recipe, and got a skillup every time. I'm not sure how much more I could get out of it, since it was gray the whole time, and I used Superior Wizard to get to 150.

Presuming my case wasn't a fluke, this would probably be the best way to get from 35-40, since you can just resell the Large Prismatic Shards for about as much, if not more, than the smalls cost.

As of 2.4.1, I can confirm that the bug is still in effect.

However, only Blood Elves can benefit from this bug. Due to their Racial Ability it allows them to gain ten free skill ups by converting a Large Prismatic Shard into three Small Prismatic Shards and back again.

Even though the ability appears gray, a Blood Elf enchanter can make it from 335 to 345 skill enchanting at no cost to them.

Only the conversion from three Small Prismatic Shards to one Large Prismatic Shard is effected by the bug. Therefore, you will only have the chance to gain skill ups half of the time (since the other half of the time you'll be converting back to three Small Prismatic Shards). This can make for a fairly lengthy session in gaining your ten free levels. While I was able to get the first few levels quickly, it probably took about 20 minutes to get all ten.

Bug has likely been fixed as of 5/5/08

Tried with blood elf at 335 enchanting. no points awarded in 10 tries.

As of 05/07/2008, I can confirm this bug has definitely not been fixed. My Blood Elf just got from 335 to 345 converting back and forth.

Doing this is quite a decent way to make cash on my server as small prismatic's are a max of 10 gold whle large prismatic's are a minimum of 35 gold.

As for the bug i will test it once i get this formula.

Commentaire de Brizzle

Worked for me today once i got 335 enchanting on my Blood elf, Took about 10-15 minutes to get 10 free levels.. I'm not complaining :P

Commentaire de Pazno

It's not a bug that you can gain skill-ups from converting prismatic shards back and forth with blood elves.

I have just tried this and it no longer works =S sorry guys no more free lvls

Commentaire de thornbrow

Confirmed: it does still work! I lvled from 338 to 339 just now!

What you need:
Formula: Large Prismatic Shard
Formula: Small Prismatic Shard

And either One Large Prismatic Shard or Three Smalls.

Be sure that you have obtained both spells so you can transfer the three into one and back again over and over. It takes doing so a few times but I can confirm that it definitely just worked for me!

I picked up both formulas in Shattrath City - one from Madame Ruby and the other from the Seer's Library in the southernmost tip of the Scryer's Tier. Follow this map location for Voren'thal the Seer and you'll run into the bookshelves.

Right-click the Enchanting bookshelf in the first row, second from the right. Not sure if you can get both from that bookshelf - perhaps try there first just in case.

Prismat-away kids!

Confirmed working 01/02/20010

Large to small enchant is green at 342 on my blood elf. I gained points from it just fine.

Commentaire de Ashkallon

This must have been Hotfixed as both recipes are now Grey once learned. No more "exploit" :(

Commentaire de 512047

Confirmed still working Patch 3.3.3 (For Blood elves only, because of racial). It takes a while but yes. you will get there eventually. dont stop

Commentaire de 139445

Was able to level off this recipe AS A BLOOD ELF as of 4.0.6.

335 to 345. Recipe was green and took 6 "sessions" of 5 Large Prismatic Shards. (60 transforms) so be patient.

That's also with .

Commentaire de Lizzerazu

This still works in 4.2 as a BE. Gained the 10 extra points for transforming. Had to do it 24 times to get the 10 points. But well worth it considered i got the small shards for only 2 gold for 40 of them. (nexus transformation from 301-315 is very cheap and easy)

Commentaire de lonewarrior

Just learned it at exactly 335...grey. Made 4 and no leveling. They have to be kidding me. Who comes up with this stuff.

Commentaire de Healingangel

confirmed its now MoP and Blood Elves cannot learn the enchanting recipe at 325 I just confirmed this on my level 61 blood elf rogue Aishá even with the racial ability for enchanting for the 10 points can only learn it at 335 and its grayed out also once you learn it since you cannot level from it which is a shame
