Tailoring leveling guide
Tailoring in Cata Classic runs from 450 to 525 on Embersilk Cloth, which drops from humanoids in the Cataclysm zones, so it pairs well with any gathering tradeskill. Bolt of Embersilk Cloth takes 5 Embersilk Cloth. Counts are approximate: a recipe can turn green a few points earlier or later.
