Leatherworking Guide

Welcome to Leatherworking

Thanks to wow-professions for their leveling guide: http://www.wow-professions.com/wowguides/wow-leatherworking-guide.html

Want to gather your own mats? Consider combining Leatherworking with the Skinning profession. It is not required for the Craft Faire, but it is a big help going forward if you are able to gather your own leather. In addition to their excellent Leatherworking guide, which we use for the Craft Faire, WoW-Professions.com has an excellent skinning guide: http://www.wow-professions.com/wowguides/wow-skinning-guide.html

Yours truly,

Check out my Savage Leather farming guide if you want to farm the leathers.

500 - 600 Visit your trainer and learn Zen Leatherworking.

Check your Calendar in-game to see if the Darkmoon Faire is open, the event starts at 00:01 on the Sunday before the 1st Monday of each month.

You can gain +5 skill points by completing a single quest. Click here to read more about the quests.

500-526 13 x [Exotic Leather] - 65 Sha-Touched Leather The Fur Lining recipes will become green again at 500. You can make any of those up to 505. You can buy Eternium Threads from Tailoring and Leatherworking supply vendors.

But if you already have the Sha-Touched Leathers from skinning mobs, just make Exotic Leathers.

526-536 5 x [Misthide Boots] - 40 Exotic Leather From this point I will usually list two recipes because the droprate of Exotic Leather and Prismatic Scale seems pretty close right now. Choose the leather type that's cheaper for you, or if you farm your own leathers mix it up to make use all of your leathers.

536-540 2 x [Misthide Belt] - 16 Exotic Leather 2 x [Stormscale Boots ] - 16 Prismatic Scale 540-550 5 x [Misthide Shoulders] - 40 Exotic Leather 5 x [Stormscale Gloves ] - 40 Prismatic Scale 550 - 560 5 x [Misthide Gloves] - 40 Exotic Leather 5 x [Stormscale Shoulders] - 40 Prismatic Scale 560 - 564 2 x [Misthide Leggings] - 20 Exotic Leather 2 x [Stormscale Helm] - 20 Prismatic Scale 564 - 570 3 x [Misthide Helm] - 30 Exotic Leather 3 x [Stormscale Chestguard] - 30 Prismatic Scale 570 - 600 Once you reach 570 you can purchase vendor recipes for the last 30 points (You can actually buy a few of them at 555). The Leatherworking recipes are on a vendor in Vale of Eternal Blossoms. You can enter Vale of Eternal Blossoms after completing the quest A Celestial Experience (requires level 87). After you completed the quest, you can find Krogo Darkhide (Horde) in Shrine of Two Moons and Tanner Pang (Alliance) in Shrine of Seven Stars. You'll need 1 Spirit of Harmony to purchase a recipe and you only need one recipe. You can get Spirit of Harmony by combining 10 Motes of Harmony. Motes are dropped by every mob in Pandaria, even in dungeons. The drop rate is low, so it may take you 2 hours to collect 10 motes.

Choose one recipe from the Contender's Armor recipes. It doesn't matter which one because if one of them requires more leathers, it will give you more skill points. You will need around 150 Exotic Leather or Prismatic Scale.
