This page covers the most important aspects of Tailoring in Dragonflight,including talent builds and suggestions on how to make gold with the profession.

Like always, Tailoring will be responsible for creating cloth gear, bothfor combat, such as Hood of Surging Time, and for other professions, suchas Master's Wildercloth Alchemist's Robe.

Besides crafting cloth armor, Tailors are able to make bags like the Azureweave Expedition Pack, and also leg enchants for casters and healers,such as Frozen Spellthread.

Dragonflight introduces Crafting Specializations, which youare able to unlock once your profession skill hits 25. These serve as a professiontalent tree system fueled by Tailoring Knowledge, obtained from weekly quests,one-time treasures in the Dragon Isles, Draconic Treatises, and first-time crafts.

While you will eventually be able to unlock all talents, doing so will requirea long time as the sources of knowledge are very limited, especially once one-timetreasures and first-crafts are exhausted.

Tailoring has great passive gold making potential through its boosts to yourability to loot cloth and Wildercloth Bolts directly from slain enemies.

Thus, it combos well with traditional farmers who can pull and kill high amountsof hyperspawning cloth-rich enemies constantly in a 2x4 group farm format,such as Balance Druids, Guardian Druids or Beast Mastery Hunters!

Dragonflight introduces a few new concepts to professions, which wedelve deeper into in the specialized guide below:

Dragonflight introduces four new stats specific to crafting professions:Multicraft, Resourcefulness, Inspiration, and Crafting Speed.

The most important source of Tailoring skill is your profession level, whichis increased by performing difficult crafts. While leveling is generallystraightforward, you should still take into account any special recipes that canhelp you along the way, as discussed in our specialized guide below:

Tailoring Specializations are divided into four disciplines, each with a varyingnumber of sub-specializations within which can be unlocked as you put points into theirpre-requisite disciplines, akin to talent trees.

The best specialization for you depends on what your goals are: are you lookingto make gold passively by looting more cloth, mass producing Tailoring base materialsefficiently, creating a specific type of cloth armor or cloak, or do you just wantto make daily Azureweave Bolt and / or Chronocloth Bolt with youralts? Each tree has its own unique perks which can help you reach these goals.

Tailoring Masteryis all about reducing the amount of resources you need through Resourcefulness,allowing you to gather more cloth, and empowering other crafts through added Inspiration.While it is mostly a support tree, you might want to path here first and foremostfor Cloth Collection and its high cloth gathering bonuses while leveling.

The Textiles tree isresponsible for improving the efficiency of tailoring intermediate materialproduction, including cloth unraveling for Spool of Wilderthread and Wildercloth Bolt crafting. It also contains some talents that help youcraft better bags, toys and other miscellaneous items such as Market Tent.

Draconic Needleworktalents unlock and empower Azureweave Bolt and Chronocloth Boltdaily crafts. They also improve and teach you some of the pattern that use theserare cloths as materials.

Garmentcraftingfocuses on teaching recipes for all types of cloth armor and cloaks and improvingthem. It is very difficult to propose a specific path here because the optionsare so many, but in general you will want to pick a sub-specialization to go forfirst from Outerwear, Outfits, and Embellishments, and thenspecialize into a specific armor slot type.

Tailoring allows you to convert cheap cloth into expensive bolts and craftedgear or leg enchants. High-end gear pieces are likely to fetch a good price inthe Crafting Orders system, which you can learn more details about in thespecialized guide below:
