Magical Tailoring

Once you have 80 Tailoring, you can purchase the book "The Art of Magical Tailoring" from one of the Master NPCs. The book costs 10k.

Once you have learned magical tailoring you may use an arcane gem on an exceptionally crafted robe, thigh boots or cloak to make Arcane clothing. (Unlike OSI, the arcane items on Grimmwold do not have the arcane art for the clothing item.)

• Arcane items allow you to cast without reagents, but takes a charge off the item.
• Also allows the crafting of fast speed shoes/boots, which allows the wearer to move as fast as if they were mounted. Available in shoes, thigh boots, sandals and boots. Fast feet shoes are craftable via the normal crafting menu if you have the Magical Tailoring book skill and requires an arcane gem.
• Flying carpets can also be crafted with this book skill, and require an arcane gem.
• Robe of Shadows will not be available.

Wide Loom Weaving

Once you have 80 Tailoring, you can get the book "The Wide Loom and You" from one of the Master NPCs. This allows you to craft rugs and tapestries. This requires a Wide Loom (placed by GMs at crafting stations), and a wide loom shuttle, created by tinkers.
