Why choose Leatherworking as your profession in WoW Classic Fresh
Leatherworking is an excellent crafting profession that lets you create leather and mail gear and various armor kits. This can be very useful during leveling and is still viable at higher levels. Armor kits can be sold in the Auction House for gold since players always need to upgrade their gear with extra stats. Choosing Leatherworking is a great opportunity to enhance your gear by yourself, so we recommend picking this profession for leather or mail wearing classes. However, some armor sets (like Devilsaur Armor) can strengthen even plate wearing classes like Warriors. Gear from high-level Leatherworking is a good choice to prepare for raiding, where you will start collecting your BiS items.
The best combo with Leatherworking in WoW Classic Fresh
The best combo with Leatherworking in WoW Classic Fresh is Skinning. Leatherworking requires leather and scale materials that can be pricy. Choosing Skinning in combination with this profession will save you a lot of time and money. Since you can master skinning during leveling, gaining needed materials becomes a natural outcome. Farming mobs while questing or completing a dungeon will provide you with some resources, making your Leatherwarking mastering easier and faster.

It has a really long respawn timer, so you should try to buy it from the Auction House, or farm the alternative recipe below.
Alternative recipe:
The recipe below requires Leatherworking 265 to learn, so you will also need 100-150 Thick Leather to make another 6-7 Nightscape Boots.
28x Wicked Leather Bracers – 224 Rugged Leather, 28 Black Dye, 28 Rune Thread
Pattern: Wicked Leather Bracers is dropped by Legashi Rogue in Azshara. It has a 5% drop rate, so you should also try to buy it from the Auction House if you don’t want to grind mobs.

The other three: Pattern: Runic Leather Belt, Pattern: Runic Leather Bracers, and Pattern: Runic Leather Gauntlets are all world drops, so you can’t farm them directly (you shouldn’t even try). But you can try to buy it from the Auction House.
