In order to be a successful tailor, you are going to have to understand the commitment that is required when going into this field. You will need many materials for crafting and buying them from the auction house can end up costing you a large amount of gold. The early levels can often be the most frustrating because of the high cost of the materials in the auction house.
This in game tailoring guide will give you step by step instructions to help you learn how to make the best of your time while leveling your tailor skill, and to avoid many of the typical mistakes that often happen to others.
This profession requires the dedication to acquire many rare recipes that will take some time, so be sure that this is the skill that you are interested in. Tailors can only make cloth and leather crafts, so it would be a good idea to learn which ingredients are needed for which recipe. This will help save time when it comes to crafting the actual items.
The items that are crafted by tailors require different cloths each one is acquired in different places and dropped by different mobs. The cloths that are in the highest demand because of their rarity are primal moon cloth, shadow cloth, and spell cloth.
It would also be a good idea to learn the concept of Bind on Pick-up' items. BOP items are bound to your specific character when they pick it up. These items cannot be sold or traded to other characters they can only be sold to a vendor or disenchanted.
There are also Bind on Equip items, also known as BOE. BOE items are just like regular items; they can be sold and traded to other characters at leisure until you decide to equip the item onto your character. Once you do that, it becomes bound to the character and can only be sold at vendors or disenchanted. This makes tailors able to sell BOE items in the auction house and make a decent profit off of their creations.
