Welcome to my Mists of Pandaria (MoP) Tailoring Guide. Here I’ll show you how to efficiently level tailoring in MoP to level 600. It doesn’t matter whether you’re level 500 or 525, to start, since you’ll begin by doing the same thing either way. With this guide you’ll save as much gold as possible, but if you do need more gold, read about how to make gold.

Levels 500-535

At level 500 you can learn Zen Master Tailor and start combining Windwood Cloth into Bolts of Windwool Cloth. This will get you to level 535. You will need about 90 Bolt of Windwool Cloth to reach level 600.

• Level 500-535: Craft 90 Bolt of Windwool Cloth – 450 Windwool Cloth

Levels 535-547

Once you reach level 535 Bolts of Windwool Cloth will turn gray and stop giving you levels. You’ll unlock Windwool Gloves, Belt and Shoulders. If you’re a cloth wearer you may want to craft all of these for yourself. They all cost the same.

• Level 535-547: Craft 4 Windwool Gloves, Windwool Belts or Windwool Shoulders – 16 Bolt of Windwool Cloth

Levels 547-559

At level 547 you can craft exactly 3 wets of Windwool Boots to reach level 553 and then switch over to Windwool Pants until level 561. Next, switch to Windwool Hood until 557. If you do this just right you’ll save a lot of cloth.

*At level 550 you can craft your first Imperial Silk, which is the Mists of Pandaria rare silk. You can craft one per day from 8 Bolts of Windwool. If you’re too lazy to go to the Silken Field in Valley of the Four Winds, you can continue to the next step early.

• Level 547-553: Craft 3 Windwool Boots – 12 Bolts of Windwool Cloth
• Level 553-561: Craft 2 Windwool Pants – 10 Bolt of Windwool Cloth
• Level 561-577: Craft 4 Windwool Hoods – 20 Bolts of Windwool Cloth

Levels 577-600

At level 577 you’re going to run out of ways to level efficiently until you buy a tailoring recipe from your faction’s Tailoring NPC this will cost 1 Spirit of Harmony. You’ll need to be able to access Vale of the Eternal Blossom, which requires that you complete the Temple of the White Tiger quest chain. Start by visiting your faction’s Tailoring NPC:

Horde: Esha the Loommaiden in Shrine of the Two Moons
Alliance:  Raishen the Needle in Shrine of Seven Stars

Purchase a recipe that you can craft and craft it until level 600. The Contender’s gear will sell well on the auction house, specifically the shoulders:

• Level 577-600: Craft 5 Contender’s Silk Amice – 15 Bolts of Windwool Cloth

Congrats on getting level 600 Tailoring!

Tip: Have you ever wondered how players have so many level 85s or how they can level an 85 so quickly? I use and strongy recommend Zygor's in-game leveling addon which will enable you to level in 5 days of played time. You can find a free version of it here.
