All pre-TBC patterns have had their tags removed be that dragonscale, elemental or tribal. So any Leatherworker can learn ANY pattern that are from the OLD WoW from any of the Master XXX Leatherworkers.

Only exception is TRIBAL, if you previously know Dragonscale or Elemental, you will not be able to TALK to the Tribal trainer unless you have completed some loads of quests where you need to bring in some LW stuff as quest reward. You would then need to unlearn your specialization which cost 100g.

What you need now at specialization is if you want to get the designated patterns for each classes. These can be trained from the Master professions trainers, and give armors designed for specific classes.

Tribal - Druid Resto/Balance
Elemental - Rogue first and foremost, but also good for Cat Druids. No sets for Tank Druids.
Dragonscale - This profession now have separate armorsets for Shamans and Hunters.

The Tribal set give maybe the best healing set for a resto druid before T5 as both the +healing/damage and the +healing can be summarized to give total stats.

Elemental leatherworking have some very nice patterns for rogues with lots of attackpower, although i dont think many rogues would go for it.

THAT SAID.
In TBC there are some few DROP PATTERNS that give BOE items for the different types of LW, be it Tribal, Elemental or Dragonscale.

There are not many of these, and most of them are world extremely rare drops, or drops from Tempest Keep, Mount Hyjal and Black Temple.

Most of the patterns that drops in TBC dont require a specialization.

Thorium Brotherhood.
These have some VERY nice patterns if you get honored or Revered with them. All these patterns used to require different specializations to learn, but that has been removed with TBC. So any LW can learn any LW pattern they sell.

Note that these patterns are pretty hard to obtain, as you will spend a few weeks gathering the stuff to build up the rep.

And dont expect people to pay lots of money for it, as these patterns are Level 60 epixes that might be outrivaled by stuff u can get from rep in TBC from Aldor.

In addition these patterns require mats from Molten Core trash mobs, and these days, not many do MC anymore.

I'm Horde and have finished the quests mentioned before. All I can do is attack this NPC. Is there something I am missing?

Comment by 135215

can a leather worker be all three like tribal, elemental, and dragon scale or only one? if only one, which is good for a rogue?

Ok Pratt McGrubben. In Feathermoon, side of the Inn, near the shore, Do the "Wild Leather" quests from him, Total 5, the others he gives are just w/e good exp though then he will give you a letter going to Darnassus, Talk to the Expert leatherwork trainer there, then he will send you to the Tribal Leatherwork trainder in Thalanarr or something.. near Thousand Needles, then she will give you a quest for you to learn Tribal Leatherworking, If you have Wildvine keep them you will need them to complete a few of these quests, the rest of the training for this tribal leatherwork is done on recipes I guess..

Done these quests a couple days ago. lvl 45 leatherwork @ 260.

Good Luck!

5x thick armor kits
------------------
2x nightscape boots
2x nightscape pants
2x wildvine
------------------

2x turtle scale helm
2x turtle scale bracers

10 wildvine
2 cured thick hide
21 silken thread
8 heavy silken thread

The above post is wrong, it's a lot more than
that. But it roughly gives you an idea of how
damn boring it is to level in LW :/
It almost feels like a curse to be a LW :/

Master Leatherworking Trainer - Drakk Stonehand

Comment by Thottbot

Does anyone have Coordinates?

Comment by Thottbot

Well, i beg for insurance for some questions:
1. Can a Horde member get Tribal Leatherworking?
2. if 1-question was yes, is it done the same way?
3. Does it replace the ordinary leatherworking?

Please, answer ASAP and thank you very much!

Comment by Thottbot

Ok, im in feathermoon stronghold and cant find her, thought she was here? If so anyone got cords of her location here or at Tenaris....thx

Comment by Thottbot

she is not in feathermoon stronghold, Pratt McGruben is (he starts you on the Wild leather quest path which is required before you can start on the Tribal quest).

Caryssia Moonhunter is actually along the border between thousand Needles and the part of Feralas that is connected to the mainland at at what is called Thalanaar. There is a flight path here as well.

Comment by Thottbot

but she now teaches 5 NEW recipes, and if you are a LW (esp. a tribal one), and haven't 'gotten your gold worth' out of them yet, then look these patterns up -

*Wildfeather Leggings - available @ lvl 45, and BoP (when you make them; they are just for you)

* Living Crystal Breastplate - also BoP; you get it at 65

* the awesome Windhawk set - all 3 patterns, right from the trainer:

*Windhawk Belt

*Windhawk Bracers

*Windhawk Hauberk

Hope this inspires some of you all to do the questlines. Please also remember - regardless of which specialty you take, you can now learn 1 pattern from EACH specialty trainer, as well as any patterns you find or can grab in the AH or from trading -

tribal leatherworking is used mostly by restorations speced druids isnt it?

Comment by Thottbot

used moustly by moonkin specced...for helig u get better blue items in instances

Comment by Thottbot

yeah I know but what the hell are the coords?

Comment by Thottbot

i've gone 0->375 LW just for the windhawk set (as a resto druid). The bracers are awesome, the belt is great, and the chest (when used to complete the set) compares to the restoration t5!

Then you add the +spelldamage (if you're a dreamstate build), and its just perfect. Druid gear at its best, great for moonkins and trees/pvp healers alike :)

Comment by Thottbot

I got the letter and delivered it to the Darnassus trainer, but he didn't give me a new quest or even mention the tribal leatherworking trainer in Feralas. If I go there, will I still be taught tribal leatherworking?

Comment by Thottbot

FOR ALLIANCE:
The path to becoming a tribal leatherworker starts at Pratt McGrubben, a vendor in Feathermoon, Feralas. There's a flight path there, he's right next to it under a stone structure. The first time you talk to him, he has two quests, assuming you are the appropriate level for them both. The quest Mark of Quality is not necessary to complete to become a tribal leatherworker. The other quest, Wild Leather Armor, is. Complete it for access to two more Wild Leather quests. Completing those will give access to the last three Wild Leather quests, and when those are all done, you will be given a final quest, to deliver a letter to the artisan leatherworker in Darnassus. Each Wild Leather quest, apart from Wild Leather Armor, will reward you with a recipe for the Wild Leather item sharing its name with the quest.

If you go to Caryssia Moonhunter after delivering the letter, she will have a quest for you. Once you complete the quest, you are a tribal leatherworker.

This is a list of all the quest items, with base materials (leather etc) in bold. Threads are not included. The quests are in the order that they appear on Pratt's page on Thottbot.

Pratt McGrubben's Wild Leather quests:

Wild Leather Armor:

10x Thick Leather

Wild Leather Shoulders:

6x Thick Armor Kit:

30x Thick Leather

1x Wildvine

Wild Leather Helmet:

2x Nightscape Tunic:

14x Thick Leather

2x Nightscape Headband:

10x Thick Leather

1x Wildvine

Wild Leather Vest:

2x Turtle Scale Breastplate:

12x Thick Leather
24x Turtle Scale

Turtle Scale Gloves:

12x Thick Leather
16x Turtle Scale

1x Wildvine

Wild Leather Leggings:

2x Turtle Scale Helm

28x Thick Leather
48x Turtle Scale

2x Turtle Scale Bracers

16x Thick Leather
24x Turtle Scale

2x Wildvine

Wild Leather Boots:

2x Nightscape Pants:

28x Thick Leather

2x Nightscape Boots:

32x Thick Leather

2x Wildvine

Caryssia Moonhunter's quest:

Tribal Leatherworking:

Wild Leather Vest:

12x Thick Leather
2x Wildvine
1x Cured Thick Hide

Wild Leather Helmet:

10x Thick Leather
2x Wildvine
1x Cured Thick Hide

If you add it all up together, you need the following items to become a tribal leatherworker (threads not included):

214x Thick Leather
112x Turtle Scale
11x Wildvine
2x Cured Thick Hide

That includes the materials to complete the actual Tribal Leatherworking quest.

Turtle Scales can be found by skinning turtles. The east coast of Duskwallow Marsh has a few turtles, but those rarely drop scales. Tanaris also has a few turtles along the coast. The passive ones drop more scales than those in Duskwallow, while the aggressive ones drop a few more. The best place to get them is the east coast in the Hinterlands, where you can often get two scales off a turtle. They are not aggressive, except for two of them that are, one of them an elite.

If you know a herbalist, ask him/her about Wildvine. If you can't get them that way, they will often be sold at the Auction House, though at a rather high price.

Cured Thick Hide requires Thick Hide and Deeprock Salt. Deeprock Salt can drop off various earth elementals around the world, and Thick Hide can be found while skinning.

Most of the recipes can be taught by your current leatherworking trainer, either in Darnassus or Aerie Peak, Hinterlands. Turtle Scale Gloves, however, is a recipe, sold in limited quantity by Pratt McGrubben (the very same). He restocks around once every half hour, but he could easily restock one of his other recipes instead of this one. Also, since there are so many people who want this, it can be hard to get even when he does restock it. I recommend finding a leatherworker who has it and get him/her to make it, or if you really want the recipe, to look in the Auction House.

FOR HORDE:
I'm really running off assumptions here, but the Horde has similar quests and NPCs to the Alliance side. Jangdor Swiftstrider in Feralas gives the Wild Leather quests, and Se'Jib in Stranglethorn gives the Tribal Leatherworking quest. And yes, Turtle Scale Gloves are still a limited supply item sold by Jangdor. So, replace the names and locations in the Alliance lists with these, and you should have the Horde list. Unless I'm wrong here, of course, but it's the best I can do.
