Tailoring

[Alvos]

Lo all

i just hit 300 tailoring :grin:

learnt master tailoring i followed the guide on wowwiki

now it says "As noted above, these recipes can only be bought by someone Neutral or Friendly with Scryer, but a Scryer friend can buy them for you."

how do i get freindly with Scryer? where is Scryer?

Also it said at 375 i can choose 1 of 3 clases? i think it was Spellcloth,Shadowcloth,Mooncloth im atm a Fire based mage but once i hit 60 im switched to frost and staying frost based so which do i choose if any?

:undecided:

Well, I can only help with a part of this sadly. To get Scryer (or for that matter, Aldor) rep, you need to do quests and turn in various items for rep for whichever faction you choose (which by the way you won't even choose until 60 anyway, you can't). By the way, you are neutral with both factions as soon as you go to Shatt I believe, you probably have already ended up in both the Aldor and Scryer sections already and just didn't know it by meandering around the city.

I found as soon as I chose an Inn to use on either side, that side became neutral, so, perhaps visit both Inns and bind yourself to them one at a time and get neutral that way? I'm not sure what items to turn in for Scryer, for Aldor, a guildie saved a ton of Bog Lord Tendrils and something else so I could get a head start on rep when it came time for me to actually choose my faction. Hope I've helped somewhat.

Aldor and Scryers are two factions in shattrath. You choose allegiance to one given in a quest in the Terrace of Light, and then hand in items (for scryer its sunfury signets,arcane tomes and firewing signets) /do quests etc to get rep with them. Getting rep with scryers decreases it with aldoe and vice versa.

When you get to 350+ tailing and are level 70 you can choose a specialisation - spellfire tailoring, shadowweave or mooncloth.

If you are going to be frost specced - choose shadoweave, it gives you +frost dmg and the 3 piece set is very nice for PVE.

Hope that helps as a brief overview - there is more info on wowwiki if you type in any of the things i mentioned.

Also, I just made it to 375 spellfire tailoring :D

+make sure you have someone who can disenchant all the stuff you make. You will need tons of arcane dust, and from the imbued netherweave stuff you can get large prismatic shrads which somewhat negate the cost of making them.

I was able to choose specialization at lvl 68. 350 tailoring.

[Cattleya]

If I remember correctly, the minimum level to get the specialization quest is level 62 (and 350 tailoring).

You can pick up the recipes from the Scryer camp in SMV.

Basically, if you decide you want to go Aldor, you should pick up the recipes before you actually do any quests for the Aldor. The only real issue there is that is can be a bit of a challenge to get through SMV at the level you would be at before you chose a side. It's easiest to just have a Scryer friend with the flightpath pick up the recipes for you.

thnx for the replys :)

so Aldor and Scryers which do i choose? im guessing Scryers but why?

do i need to go to Aldor other than to pick up the recipes? are the recipes available on the AH?

For a comparison of both check this link:

It shows quest rewards, rep rewards, and the patterns for various professions.

You have to be 60. My priest was 60 when she made her primal mooncloth belt.

Aldor tends to lean towards "defense" and scryer towards "offense". Aldor tailors can make the healing spellthread for legs and Scryer can make the dps caster spellthread. It is more a matter of preference then anything.

[XCompanion]

Aside from the spellthread there is also the shoulder enchant and scryer has a nice ring at exalted. The honored aldor enchant is dmg, the scryer is spell crit. The exalted Aldor has more dmg, while the scryer splits it between dmg and crit.

Pick your faction based on which enchant you want and which items they have. Visit the quartermasters in both banks to see. (i don't think aldor has any good dps caster gear). You'll probably only make 5 or 6 spellthread for yourself in your career ever and you can get them made for 50g +mats, so that's moot. You can make money crafting either one. If someone in your guild can already craft one, you might consider getting the other, if no one has it yet.

As for your other question about spec. Shadow tailoring if you intend to play as a frost mage, spellstrike for fire.

[sparklebunny]

There is the aldor robe at honored which is not bad but will be replaced by several in the 5-man instances - my warlock wore it for a while. I agree with XCompanion and it is what I tell guildies and friends who ask me....look at what is available from the quartermasters (or better yet get Atlas and AtlasLoot Enhanced) and see what they have...make your decision there based on your professions or which shoulder enchants seem more appealing to you.

If you want to do pve as well - scryer's bloodgem is very useful as it gives you loads of +hit. You also get that spellthread which is a useful enchant equivalent.

Those are the two reasons I went scryers :)
