WoW Forever Tailoring Leveling Guide 1-300

This WoW Forever Tailoring leveling guide will show you the fastest and cheapest way to level your Tailoring skill from 1 to 300. You will also find every trainer location and where to train Tailoring past 75, 150 and 225.

Below you will find the full shopping list, the Tailoring trainers by starting zone and capital city, and the cheapest recipes for every skill range from Apprentice to Artisan. Tailoring uses cloth as its main material, but cloth drops from humanoids, so you don't need a gathering profession and you can combine Tailoring with anything. Enchanting is a popular choice because you can disenchant the things you make while leveling and use the dust to level Enchanting.

This is based on the Forever beta. Leveling takes a long time, so testing the higher levels on live will take a while. If you find something that's off, send me feedback.

Shopping List

These numbers are estimates. Once a recipe turns yellow you won't get a skill point from every craft, so you might need a few more or a few less.

NOTE: Most trainers have a Tailoring Supply vendor nearby that sells the threads and dyes, except the trainer in Tirisfal Glades. For that one, buy the Coarse Thread in Brill from Abigail Shiel.

An alternative replaces the whole row, so buy the one that is cheaper.

Tailoring Trainer Locations

Apprentice Tailoring has no level requirement in Forever, so you can learn it on a fresh character.

Every capital city has a trainer. You can also ask a guard, then it will be marked with a red flag on your map.

You can find every Tailoring trainer for Horde and Alliance on my WoW Forever Tailoring Trainers page.

Apprentice Tailoring (1-55)

  • 1-30
    30x Bolt of Linen Cloth - 60 Linen Cloth

    Keep the bolts, you need all of them for the belts.

  • 30-55
    28x Linen Belt - 28 Bolt of Linen Cloth, 28 Coarse Thread

Journeyman Tailoring (55-125)

To train past 75, visit one of these trainers and learn Journeyman Tailoring, it requires Tailoring 50 and level 10:

Horde trainers:

Alliance trainers:

  • 55-80

    Learn Journeyman Tailoring before you make these. You can reach past 75 with them, but you won't get any skill points above 75 until you learn it, so don't go AFK while crafting before you have it.

    45x Bolt of Woolen Cloth - 135 Wool Cloth

    Keep the bolts, you will need them later. In total you will need 153 Bolt of Woolen Cloth (459 Wool Cloth) until 140, so you can also make all of them now.

  • 80-95
    22x Woolen Cape - 22 Bolt of Woolen Cloth, 22 Fine Thread

    If the bolts already took you past 80, just make capes until 95.

Expert Tailoring (125-225)

To train past 150, visit Josef Gregorian in Undercity (Horde) or Georgio Bolero in Stormwind City (Alliance) and learn Expert Tailoring, it requires Tailoring 125 and level 20 and costs 50 silver.

  • 125-140
    24x Gloves of Meditation - 96 Bolt of Woolen Cloth, 72 Fine Thread, 24 Elixir of Wisdom

    The gloves are yellow the whole way, so you might need a few more.

  • 170-190
    26x Crimson Silk Pantaloons - 104 Bolt of Silk Cloth, 52 Red Dye, 52 Silken Thread

    The pants turn yellow at 180, so you might need a few more.

  • 215-225
    26x Mageweave Bag - 104 Bolt of Mageweave, 52 Silken Thread

    I recommend the bags right now simply because they are more useful. You can use them yourself, sell some, give them to friends or use them in your bank.

    Alternative:

    If you don't need the bags and don't want to sell them, make these instead. They need Artisan Tailoring, which requires level 35.

    10x Runecloth Belt - 30 Bolt of Runecloth, 10 Rune Thread.

Artisan Tailoring (225-300)

To train past 225, visit Daryl Stack in Tarren Mill, Hillsbrad Foothills (Horde) or Timothy Worthington in Theramore Isle, Dustwallow Marsh (Alliance) and learn Artisan Tailoring, it requires Tailoring 200 and level 35.

This part is not tested yet. I couldn't test it because of the beta level cap, so treat everything below as untested until I test it on live, and send feedback if something is off.

A lot of skill ranges changed compared to Classic Era, so don't follow the Classic guide for this part, most of its recipes turn grey 25 to 45 points earlier in Forever.

  • 225-240
    24x Runecloth Belt - 72 Bolt of Runecloth, 24 Rune Thread

    You can learn it from the two trainers above.

    You will need 244 Bolt of Runecloth (1220 Runecloth) until 265. The bolts don't give skill points anymore, so you can make all of them now.

  • 240-265
    43x Runecloth Gloves - 172 Bolt of Runecloth, 172 Rugged Leather, 43 Rune Thread

    The pattern is sold by Qia in Winterspring.

  • 265-300

    I will update this part once I get there and see the live prices. I didn't find any trainer or vendor recipe you can level with past 265, but there might be more recipes we haven't discovered yet. For now, the possible candidates are these two world drop patterns, with the materials for one craft:
