Tailor Archive

I know this has already been mentioned, but I'm going to mention it again, because I haven't seen much focus on it, and I see it as a major concern, at least on my server... As far as I'm aware there are only two Master Tailors on my server, although there may be others that I'm unaware of, and I know there are several, like myself, who are getting very close... The lack of item decay is already driving down the value of clothing rapidly on my server which is only just starting to become devleoped... When you add to that the looted clothing being sold on the bazaar for prices I would take a loss to sell at, it makes things very difficult for a novice tailor, and I see that getting worse and worse as the market becomes more and more saturated.. I see many low level tailors changing proffessions because so much of what they can make has such little value.. Myself, it pains me to work so hard to attain a new level, to find that some of the coolest things I can make can be looted, and are sold for very cheap.. (example- Stately Necklaces are common drops, a Formal Wear 4 item; Gunman's Dusters another common drop, Field Wear 4; Robes of Honor, Master Tailor!! (junk by now on my server)).. I'll admit I have focused most of my attention on tailoring, and don't know a great deal about the other proffessions, but as far as I'm aware, Tailoring is the only Master Elite proffession whose Master Level items are easily found as loot..Can you imagine killing something and getting a piece of composite armor, or a deed to a guild hall?? The other day, one of my friends who often gives me her collection of looted clothing, gave me 7 robes of honor, after having been out hunting for a couple of hours.. Granted, they are a bit ugly, i would really be complaining if they start dropping flesh wraps.. Anyway, the point is, I'm really concerned about the future of tailoring with things as they are.. I realize that for Master Tailors there is no worry about business right now, however if this doesn't change, I can see this becoming a major problem in the future, especially combined with the lack of item decay.. And, I see this becoming a problem which will prevent new players from being able to progress in the tailoring proffession... Just my two credits..
