| of the most rewarding professions you could | | | | Priests and Warlocks. This one should be obvious. |

| actually valuable, so you could (possible, maybe) | | | | course, you can be a Paladin or a Warrior and still |
| make some money, and if you're a cloth | | | | be a Tailor, but you'll miss out on good gear that |

| Here are a few tips concerning Tailoring in World | | | | of the few crafted items that are actually worth |
| of Warcraft | | | | your while. Did you see what so-called "Bag |
| Pick your second profession with care. By "care", | | | | Vendors" sell their lousy 10-slot bags for? They |
| I mean "pick enchanting". You will be able to | | | | should be called "Bag Thieves", "Bag Extortionists" |
| disenchant all the low-level items you craft to level | | | | or "Bag Profiteers", but instead they go by the |
| up your tailoring skill, earning you some materials | | | | milder and inaccurate "Bag Vendor" label. My point |
| to create enchants for you and your guild mates. | | | | is that bags sell really fast and really well. |
| As you level goes up, so does the power of the | | | | Everyone needs them. Quick note: crafted items |
| enchantments you can cast. You will also be able | | | | that sell for more than the materials are worth at |

| the items you disenchanted, if you could have | | | | materials, often for more, so they are a cheap |

| than "Brown Linen Robes", believe you me. | | | | Cool Crafted Items. Tailoring is an easy skill to |
| Keep Your Cloth. I know that you think you need | | | | level. If you pay attention just a little bit to what |
| every copper of WoW currency you can get you | | | | you are doing, you will always be able to craft |

| Don't Buy Recipes Willy-Nilly. Don't go to the | | | | on the mobs you kill -- no need to run after |
