Tailoring Introduction

If you are interested in training tailoring as one of your two professions the first step you need to take is to train tailoring. To do this all you need to do is head to a major city, right click a guard, click professions, click on tailoring, and following the flag on your map to the tailoring trainer. When you get to the tailoring area find the tailoring trainer and train Apprentice Tailor. Click your "Spellbook & Abilities" (P) and on the "General" tab you will find a tailoring button, click it. You will see that you have several formulas (Simple Linen Pants, Linen Cloak, Brown Linen Shirt, Bolt of Linen Cloth) in your book already, the trainer gave you these when you trained Apprentice Tailor. You can also train White Linen Shirt right away.

Now that you have tailoring trained you need to get the supplies for it, which consists mainly of cloth. To begin you'll have to get linen cloth and then most recipes require other miscellaneous items which at lower levels are usually bought from a tailoring supplies vendor.

Tailoring 1-125

This is probably the cheapest and easiest part of the guide since it involves the creation of items made with linen and wool cloth and lower level recipes. Keep in mind that the number of items listed to craft is just an estimate and you might need to make more or less to reach the project skill.

Tailoring 125-250

For this section you will begin by leveling up with silk cloth and finish off with making items from Mageweave. Once again remember you may need to make slightly different amounts to reach the projected skill. If you don't feel like farming cloth but need gold look at this gold making guide.

Tailoring 250-300

Getting from 250-300 is pretty simple, you only have to craft 3 different items.

Tailoring 300-375

There are a few things you need to know for this section. First off, in order to level above 300 you will need to visit a Master Tailoring Trainer (or Grand Master Tailoring Trainer). Secondly, there are a few patterns that you must purchase and cannot train at the train, they are listed in the table below.

To level up above 300 you'll need to visit a Master Tailoring Trainer:

Here are the patterns you need to buy for this section of the guide.

Tailoring 375-450

This is the last stretch of the guide. This portion will require a lot of Frostweave Cloth so if you are getting tired of farming cloth but don't have the gold to buy a bunch take a look at this Gold Guide for tips on how to make lots of gold.

To level up above 375 you'll need to visit a Grand Master Tailoring Trainer:

Here is the guide.

There are a few different paths you can take to level up the last five levels of your tailoring. First off you can continue to craft the green Frostsavage patterns or the green Frostweave Bag patterns. Be aware that this will take a very large amount of attempts until you actually hit 450 and is not a practical route to take if you are concerned with leveling up as quickly as possible.

The second suggestion I have is to level up off of yellow or orange Ebonweave, Moonshroud, or Spellweave patterns. The easiest way to do this is to begin creating each of these cloths at 415 when they are trainable. Also be sure to check the auction house for cloth and get other tailors you know to use their cool downs to create the cloth for you. Be sure that you have specialized in either Mooncloth Tailoring, Shadowweave Tailoring, or Spellfire Tailoring so that when you craft the one you are specialized in you will receive two pieces of cloth instead of one. (If you have not already done this you can find the Specialists to train you in Lower City in Shattrath City.)
