Wiz taloring to 130

[silent_hand]

Just planning to finish up the epic 1.5, got to 70ish last night in tailoring, was planning on vendor or bazaar buying as much as possible. Looking for some tips on skilling up.

No pelts in bazaar for backpacks.
No kiolas, I guess I could make some, pain with the packets not being in Abysmal sea (afaik).

I put my buyer up for kiola and coul ddo wus, but if I do not buy any, any other suggestions to get to 130 tailoring, have money to buy parts.

Thanks

to 54 ... training in Crescent Reach

to 66 ... woven mandrake

to 76 picnic basket (use the woven mandrake and steel boning, a relatively simple smithing combine)

to your goal ... cultural templates (be sure to get the recipes from merchant in front of the PoK library)

There should be plenty of pelts and silks in the bazaar. It's up to you if you want to get your trophy or not, for the minor % increase, but shouldn't be hard at all to get to 130. Like Paloverde said, get the books that tell you how to make them, and then you're off an running.

You can make quivers to around 100 iirc but they are a pain because they are containers.But i see lots of HQ cat pelts for sale in DSH's:-)

Don't forget about making ribbons. Silver ones are cheap and get you to 122. Gold and Platinum ones go all the way up to 167 and 187 respectively.
While the robe combine done after the ribbon is made is racially restricted, making the ribbons themselves doesn't have a racial restriction.
