Last updated on Jun 03, 2021 at 02:00by Crix1 comment

Tailoring is one of the most powerful and game changing Professions in TBC.It allows you to make extremely strong armor sets that many classes likeWarlocks, Priests, Mages, and even some Shamans and Druids, use these sets forboth their caster specs and their healing specs. Some powerful sets likeSpellfire Set, Frozen Shadoweave, Primal Mooncloth, andeven BiS enchants like Runic Spellthread, new bags, and so much moreare available to tailors.

Tailoring is often paired with Enchanting, so as to disenchantthe stuff you make while leveling it up, but this is not mandatory. Anotheroption is a gathering profession like Herbalism orMining.

You may also find that Tailoring can be used to complement yourgoldmaking in TBC Classic. For more information on this among other methodsinvolving alternative professions, please see our separate guide on the topic:

Not much changes from Classic to TBC in terms of leveling up your Tailoringprofession 1-300, but 300-375 is quite a bit different than what you may be usedto from Classic. The main cloth that you can expect to use during your Tailoringadventures in TBC is Netherweave Cloth. This will be used to craft all3sorts of cloth, including some very important ones like Bolt of Imbued Netherweave, which is used to make very important Tailoringpieces, Bolt of Soulcloth, which is vital for Shadow Resistance gear thatyou will need later in Black Temple. There is also the all-importantSpecialization gear, which includes Spellcloth, Shadowcloth,and Primal Mooncloth.

For Classic, there are now Tailoring trainers located at all major Cities andwill be able to teach you Tailoring from Apprentice to Artisan.

For TBC, the Tailoring Trainer that will teach you Master Tailoring islocated in Honor Hold if you are Alliance and Thrallmarif you are Horde.

For the new TBC Specializations, all the trainers are located in ShattrathCity in the Lower City district and they are all also located relatively closeto each other. Take note that this is also where the Mana Loom is, which will beneeded to craft Bolt of Imbued Netherweave.

• Shadoweave Specialist Quest —Becoming a Shadoweave Tailor from Andrion Darkspinner,located at 66.6 67.2
• Spellfire Specialist Quest —Becoming a Spellfire Tailor from Gidge Spellweaver,located at 6.6 68.6
• Mooncloth Specialist Quest —Becoming a Mooncloth Tailor from Nasmara Moonsong,located at 66.4 69.0

Tailoring had 3 specialisations introduced to it in TBC Classic, each havingtheir own role and use. Shadoweave Tailoring,Spellfire Tailoring, and Mooncloth Tailoring areeach used on their own to create extremely powerful sets of gear that will carrythem easily into T4 and, for some, even into T5.

Once you reach 350, you can choose to train as one of these Specializationsby simply going to Shattrath City in Outland and selecting one, leading to asimple quest. While you can make any of these cloths as a Tailor, if you are oneof these specializations you can craft TWO rather than just one. This ishuge because, with each craft, there is a very long cooldown and this doublesyour amount of speciality cloth!

Along with the double craft on cloth, each specialization has a special setof armor that they can craft and each set comes with superb stats, a ton ofsockets, and even a set bonus.

• 3-set Primal Mooncloth: Primal Mooncloth Robe, Primal Mooncloth Belt, Primal Mooncloth Shoulders
  • Set bonus: increases your Spell Power, restores Mana every 5 seconds.Set bonus: Allows 5% of your mana to regenerate while casting.
• 3-set Frozen Shadoweave: Frozen Shadoweave Shoulders, Frozen Shadoweave Boots, Frozen Shadoweave Robe
  • Set bonus: your Frost and Shadow damage spells heal you for 2% of thedamage they deal.
• 3-set Spellfire Set: Spellfire Belt, Spellfire Gloves, Spellfire Robe
  • Set bonus: increases Spell Power and Critical Strike and your Spell Damageby up to 7% of your Intellect.

In order to be a Shadoweave Tailor, you must find Andrion Darkspinnerat 66.6, 67.2 and get the quest Becoming a Shadoweave Tailor. He willthen send you out to Shadowmoon Valley to an altar called the Altar of Shadows.After that, simply head back to Shattrath and Andrion Darkspinnerwill then teach you Shadoweave Tailoring, allowing you to craft Shadowcloth.

In order to be a Spellfire Tailor, you must find Gidge Spellweaverlocated at 6.6, 68.6 and pick up the quest Becoming a Spellfire Tailor.She will then give you Nether-wraith Beacon, which you must take out toArea 52 in Netherstorm, where you use the item and it will summon aFurious Nether-wraith that you then must kill, dropping a Nether-wraith Essence. Bring that Essence back toGidge Spellweaver and she will teach you Spellfire Tailoring.

In order to be a Mooncloth Tailor, you must find Nasmara Moonsonglocated at 66.4, 69.0 and pick up the questBecoming a Mooncloth Tailor. He will then give you Sample of Primal Mooncloth, which you must take to Cenarion Refuge inZangarmarsh, where you will then have to imbue the sample on the moonwelllocated in the middle of Cenarion Refuge. Once done, you can return to LowerCity in Shattrath and Nasmara Moonsong will then teach youMooncloth Tailoring. This also allows you to craft the powerfulPrimal Mooncloth Set.
