Legion Tailoring Guide | World of Warcraft GamePlay Guides (2024)

  • The Max skill on professions in Legion is 800.
  • You will not get your all your recipes from trainer directly. Instead you will do a quest chain containing many quests that rewards recipes. Basically your trainer has ideas of how to make stuff and you try them out and if it works, you get a recipe.
  • Profession quests takes you all over Broken Isles and also requires to do some dungeons as well.
  • You need a certain level to get more quests from trainer, however, while doing the main legion questline you will bump in to profession specific quests.

Legion Tailoring Guide | World of Warcraft GamePlay Guides (1)

Shal´dorei Silk can be found on humanoids within the Broken Isles. Check my guide: Best farming place forShal´dorei Silk.

The gear you can craft as a tailor is divided in two subgroups

  • Silkweave (ilvl 715-785)
  • Imbued Silkweave (ilvl 815)

You can upgrade crafted gear from 815 to a maximum of 850. Check out my guide regarding this, here.

Silkweave gear

You will obtain the patterns for making Silkweave gear by completing the Tailoring quests.

The first quest is obtainable in Dalaran (Broken Isles), in Talismanic Textiles store.

You will learn Silkweave Epailets (shoulders) Silkweave Cinch (waist) very early in Dalaran then you will obtain the rest by following the questline.

Imbued Silkweave crafting

All Imbued armor needs to be crafted on Queen´s Grace Loom. Locationis in Suramar City (40:69), see map below.
Click on the pole furthest to the left, to teleport to the hidden room (only if you have come this far in the questline). This is Queen´s Grace Loom.

Legion Tailoring Guide | World of Warcraft GamePlay Guides (2)

Legion Tailoring Guide | World of Warcraft GamePlay Guides (3)

Legion Tailoring Guide | World of Warcraft GamePlay Guides (4)

To be able to make Imbued armor you need to make Imbued Silkweave which costs 3 Arkhana and 10 Shal´doei Silk for one Imbued Silkweave.

At max character level you will do that last quests of your profession quest line in order to unlock the Imbued Silkweave crafting. For this part, you need to enter Suramar in a disguise and learn some crafting from the “evil” Leyweavers. To be able to talk the citizens of Suramar City, you need to do the first 5-6 quests of the Suramar questline. Once you hit 110 you will get a quest via your Adventure Guide which guides you through the questline in Suramar to aid the Nightborne.

Once you get the disguise, you get a new quest from the Tailor quest giver in Dalaran which tells you to go back to Suramar City and do some quests for them. Since you have to go back sometimes to the Leyweavers in Suramar City, I have put a map location where they are.

Pattern: Imbued Silkweave Bracers
This is the first Imbued pattern you learn early in Suramar City after completing some quests for the Leyweavers in Suramar City as a disguised Suramar Citizen.

You now unlocked the other Imbued patterns in which some are sold to you and others are achieved by completing a quest for the NPC holding the pattern.

How can I prepare for tailoring quests prelaunch?

There is a quest (Inspire Me!) at max level (110) in which a Leyweaver wants you to craft items in front of him. You will definitely save time if you gather the materials for this already now and save it in your bank/bags. Remember that you need to craft them in front of the NPC so just gather the materials for now.

  • Brown Linen Robe
    Materials: 3 Bolt of Linen Cloth, 1 Coarse Thread
  • White Woolen Dress
    Materials: 3 Bolt of Woolen Cloth, 1 Bleach, 1 Fine Thread
  • Simple Black Dress
    Materials: 3 Bolt of Mageweave, 1 Black Dye, 1 Heavy Silken Thread, 1 Bleach
  • Frostwoven Robe
    Materials: 4 Bolt of Frostweave, 1 Eternium Thread
  • Spiritmend Robe
    Materials: 6 Bolt of Embersilk Cloth, 2 Eternium Thread

Patch 7.1 came out this week and I noticed one major upgrade. We can now craft 30 slots bag as well (Imbued Silkweave Bag). Before (7.0) we learned to craft a 24 slot bag, the Silkweave Satchel. The dev team said that they made this choice so layers can make cheap bags for alts/banks etc. Now, they gave us the opportunity to make 30 slot bags as well.

How do I get the pattern for 30 slot bag?

You get a quest from Leyweaver Tytallo located in The Grand Promenade (the same house you enter to craft Imbued Silkweave gear.

It seems that you need to unlock Imbued Silkweave crafting which you do at the end of the Tailoring quest line.

The quest is called “The Big Bag Theory”.
To complete this quest you need to enter Legion Karazhan and Recover a Bag of a Thousand Pockets and a Fel Sinew Bag.

I haven’t got the items yet but looking at the maps in Karazhan its seems that you obtain the items from following:

  • Bag of Thousand Pockets: On map it shows that its in the Master´s Terrace area. But I belive its a loot from the boss Moroes.
  • Fel Sinew Bag from Viz'aduum the Watcher boss platform and most likely a loot from that boss.

What are the materials from legion 30 slot bag (Imbued Silkweave Bag)

  • 100 Imbued Slikweave
  • 20 Runic Catgut
  • 10 Blood of Sargeras
