Anyone have any Tailoring sites for Everquest handy? Or know a quick way to get Tailoring mastered?

Once you have started down the tradeskill path; forever will it dominate your destiny!

No.

Tradeskills takes hours of your time to get a few paltry skill increases.

Not so, My friend once got his brewing from 0 to 120 in less than an hour. Amazing.

Brewing != tailoring.

Tailoring, Smithing, fletching, tinkering, alchemy, jewelrycraft, poison making... they're all hard (And expensive!) to raise.

Baking, Brewing, pottery... those ones are easy though.

But that was also brewing, and from 0-120.
Doesn't count.

Actually Jewelcraft isn't hard per se like tailroing, it only involves a moderate (compared to say,....smithing) amount of money and a lot of klicking.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Fletching is fast too.. Atleast it was for me when I got it from 10-140 in 1 sitting.

Fletching is easy, Jewelry is easy but freaking expensive, Baking's a cinch and you can get the ingredients to get to 135 or 142 (fish rolls triv someplace around there) very easily.

Tailoring's a challenge merely in getting the materials. You'll either need to kill a lot of spiderlings/spiders, or buy their silk. Silk threads (2 spiderling silks) triv around 17. Silk cords (3 spiderling silks) soon after.

You can use the silk cords to make bags with pelts after you triv patchwork at 26. That means you waste less silk swatches (2 spider silks), because raw silk trivs at 46 and you will waste silk swatches if you don't wait till you're at least in your 30s to try it.

Raw silk is the last place you can really tailor on your own without massive failures. Studded leather requirs metal studs, which requires a blacksmith. Wu's, the next step up, requires mana vials, which requires a chanter.

So there's not really an easy way to master tailoring, because so often other skills or classes come into it. But that should get you started at least.

Here, struck out a few ridiculous options. You can get all the stupid stuff for these tradeskills at a vendor. Just sit on your ass in Thurgardin and you can master them.

Can't say for sure for the class/race tradeskills, but I believe most of them are all vendor-provided.

Cost is a given whenever you want to raise a tradeskill... Only, with Tailoring, you can't consider simple cost since you have to get all the components yourself.

I mastered Tailoring, then I said, "Never again". Tradeskills r dum!

Helps if you have a horde of friends to get you skins and silks and such.
