World Of Warcraft Tips: Making Money From Tailoring
In World of Warcraft, Tailoring allows players to craft cloth items
, bags and enhancements for armour in the form of "spellthread". Apart from providing the player with unique tailor only items, such as your very own flying carpet, you can also make money in WoW with Tailoring, by using it on its own or along with the Enchanting skill.
The main reagent for Tailoring is the different types of cloth that drop from NPCs, along with the occasional gem, skinning reagent, primals or Enchanting dusts. All those items are usually available in the Auction House if you prefer not to gather them yourself, so theoretically you wouldn't need to be high level to make a profit from tailoring. However, high level recipes sell much better, so to make money with tailoring you will need to train the skill up to the max level, and specialize in one of the three tailoring specializations, and that requires being at least level 60. Many of the best patterns drop from bosses or NPCs that are level 80 or more, so it's better if your tailor is level 80, but you can also make money out of lower level patterns, selling to disenchanters and twinks.
RECOMMENDED ADDONS - Auctioneer suite: This addon gathers data from the auction house and your own listed auctions, allowing you a statistical view over time on how the prices and moving rates of items are evolving. - LilSparky's Workshop and Skillet: A replacement for the tradeskill window, those two addons will allow you to queue items to be crafted, see what you can craft and what are the cost of the reagents (in combination with Auctioneer), and what is the auctioneer price for the end product. Will allow you to make decisions on what to craft at a certain moment from your available recipes, or make shopping lists to get the items you need from the Auction House or other players.
PRICING MECHANICS Once you have decided on which market niche you want to exploit, based on their sale price versus the price of the reagents and how frequently items are bought by other players, you need to figure out what is your target sale price (The one you won't sell lower than to have enough profit to be worth your time) and what is themaximum cost you're willing to pay for reagents. After this, is just a matter of purchasing reagents every time you see them at lower than yourmaximum price and listing the crafted items when they are selling for more than you're willing to sell for, without flooding the market so much than the prices drop. Take into account that the Auction House takes away a 5% fee, every time you list an item (even if it doesn't sell).
FINDING YOUR MARKET NICHE This is a mix of art, experience and a good knowledge of the game upcoming changes and mechanics. In some servers, bags are great sellers, whereas for others people are after twink (lower level characters for pvp) items. To test a market, create a few items of that type and list them over a week period, to see how they sell. Remember that patches can make the market fluctuate wildy, as items become obsolete or in high demand. Specially on RP realms, having recipes such as tuxedos, dresses and other purely cosmetic cloths and being available to craft on demand through the trade channel may be profitable as well.
ALTERNATIVE WAYS OF MAKING MONEY FROM TAILORING Disenchanting: Depending on what price you got your reagents for, some items are worth more after being disenchanted into dusts and essences and sold that way to leveling enchanters or people looking for enchanting materials. Transmutations: Once every 4 days a tailor can create two bolts of the cloth they have specialized in (Ebonweave, Moonshroud and Spellweave) for the reagents cost of 1 bolt. Those fabrics are used for rare bags and epic items, and can be sold to others (or traded for other fabrics you're not specialized in to craft items yourself).
Tailoring is mostly taken as a profession due to the enhancements it can provide for the character, but since it doesn't depend on any gathering profession in particular if a good market niche is found and the correct recipes obtained it's also a good way of making money in World of Warcraft.
