Hi......

WRT: Leatherworking

I recently discovered that when you get to a certain level you can choose to sepcialise in a ceertain 'type' of leatherwporking. I sort of stumbled across this by accident when i was browsing the AH and came across two patterns for 'Green Dragoinscale' armour pieces and promptly snapped them up.

As is see it, it looks like you have to do a certain quest chain in ferolas about 'Wild' leather patrterns then you can shoose whether to do Dragonscale, tribal or another typr of leatherworking. And you can only choose one. However the information i have on this i very scarce and thats about all i know.

Waht i would like to know is:
1. What the the three diferent types are and what pieces of armour they let you make.
2. Where you can find them
3. by learning one does that stop you making items from the other...even if i have the patterns?

Could someone who has been through this experience just share their knowledge on it please as im quite keen to start making myself one of the armour sets.

Thanks in advance

Hi Thovaak!!

1. Dragonscale Leatherworking, Elemental Leatherworking and Tribal Leatherworking.
    To many to poster here "im lazy" Tongue

2. Dragonscale leatherworker: Peter Galen in Azshara.
    Elemental Leatherworking: Sarah Tanner in Searing Gorge.
    Tribal Leatherworking: Se'Jib in Stranglethorn Vale.

3.Yes

I'll add that this is pre TBC and i'm not sure if there is any use for this after you hit 60, if not its prolly not worth the time and mats Smiley

It is actually quite important to get the right specialisation as when you hit 375 and level 70 you can get a few epic patterns specific to your class.

As a resto druid I went for Tribal which allowed me to make:

[Windhawk Bracers]
[Windhawk Hauberk]
[Windhawk Belt]

I am hoping it will be the same at level 80 . . .

Thanks for the info guys.....

I spent the weekend gettin my leatherowrking up to scratch and have specialised in Dragonscale Leathewrworking. This allows me to make Mail items and, being a Shaman, is best suited to me. I was luckmy to find 2 'Green Dragonscale' patterns on the Ah and, coupled with the one i learnt form the trainer, i now am the proud owner of the full set of Green Dragonscale armour. It is ideal for me at lvl 50 because of the massive mana regenerationproperties. i.e. it has big bonuses to spirit and stamina and i also get a 'regens 20 mana per 5 seconds' bonus for havin gth e set of 3.

I had to spend alot of time farming mats for the quests and i also spent alot on mats but i think its prob worth it. It also looks like therearea few good patterns for when i hit lvl 70.

Just to make things clear for other people, who might want to know this:
Three leatherworking specializations - Dragonscale, Tribal and Elemental.
Dragonscale leatherworking lets you make mail armor, and thus, is best suited for hunters and shamans.
Tribal leatherworking gets you some recipes for leather armor with spell damage and healing, which makes it best for Resto and Balance druids.
Elemental leatherworking is for rogues and feral druids, as it gives you leather armor with stamina, agility, AP etc.
The quest chain for Wild leather armor, that Thovaak was talking about, is required, in order to specialize in Tribal leatherworking.  The trainer is in Feralas.
Sorry, I don't really know what the quest for training Elemental leatherworking is.  Maybe someone else could say.  The trainer is in Searing Gorge.
Dragonscale leatherworking, as far as I remember, had a quest for gathering some rare Dragonscales, which made it really annoying.  Best advice I can give you, get a group and do Sunken Temple, the drop rate for the dragonscales is not bad at all.
At lvl70 and 375LW every specialization has a 3 part epic set (chest, bracers and belt) for every class (hunter, shaman, druid, rogue).  The sets are really nice, so it's worth it getting LW to 375.
And last, when you choose a specialization, the only things you can't learn are the recipes from the other two specialist trainers.  This means, that if you're a feral druid, who chose Elemental LW and got it to 375 to make the epic set, and then you decide you want to go Balance or Resto and you want to make the sets for that too, you'll have to pay money to unlearn Elemental and learn Tribal LW.
I hope this covers all you wanted to know.  Cheers!

The quest for elemental leatherworking is to collect hearts of fire, globes of water, cores of earth, and breaths of wind and bring them back to the trainer in Searing Gorge. These can be found on most elementals of the corresponding type from about level 45-60, so it will take some traveling around to get this one done.

I would advice checking AH instead, normaly droprates are around 5% or even less, they dont go for too high on AH what I recall maybe the hearts of fire but nothing unaffordable
