During the Blizzard Content Creator Summit, developers Sean McCann and Michael Bybee revealed some insight on World of Warcraft's The War Within expansion, giving more clarity on Delves, new mechanics, and features, as well as a little bit of information on Early Access.
Spark System Continues in The War Within Crafting - Fractured Spark of Omens
25.04.2024 - 05:23 / wowhead.com
In Dragonflight, Professions as we knew them were completely revamped: gone were the days of simply crafting an item in one go; instead, players could craft, recraft, and recraft again the same items over and over in order to produce consistently stronger weapons, armor, trinkets, and profession gear over time. One key piece to this system was Sparks — Optional Crafting Reagents that allowed players to adjust the minimum item level a piece of gear would be crafted at.
Based off our datamining, it looks like that system will continue in The War Within.
We discovered Fractured Spark of Omens and Spark of Omens, which clearly follow the pattern of requiring a Spark to set item level beyond initial crafting capabilities.
It's very likely that Fractured Spark of Omens will be earned through weekly activities, similar to Splintered Spark of Shadowflame and Splintered Spark of Dreams that came before it. While Professions overall have not changed much between Dragonflight and The War Within, it will be easier for players to prepare and plan their gear upgrades around a somewhat reliable system such as Sparks in crafting.

New Crafted Epics in The War Within - Unique Effects, Group Synergy
The War Within is bringing new Profession recipes to players, which means new and interesting effects on crafted epics! Players will remember how useful some crafted items like Elemental Lariat were in Dragonflight, and The War Within is introducing effects just as interesting and unique on the newest epics for players to experiment with. These effects don't come free though. While not yet present on any of the crafted items, we have found a new Embellishment tag, suggesting that the most powerful special effects on crafted gear will be limited similar to Dragonflight. While we've mainly discovered Leatherworking and Jewelcrafting effects so far, we're sure there will be many more to come!
