Guild Wars 2

I think I’m finally getting the hang of crafting. I’m lvl 24 but I have lvl 46 in artificer but my tailoring is 32. Being an artificer is relatively easy I go up to a tree or a rock I mine or chop then I get the ingredients I want. With tailoring I have to go up to a certain creature or bad guy and defeat them but if I defeat them I might not get what I want (I want jute scraps), that’s irritating.

Is there an easier way of getting tailoring ingredients? If I knew it was going to be this hard I would have chosen weaponsmith.

The trading post has all of the materials you need in exorbitant quantities. Check it out by hitting O in-game.

Use the Wiki or Google to find out where to find/farm specific material, then play/farm these areas when completing your dailies. Also don’t forget to salvage skins & armor you don’t need. Tailor is easy just refine each material until it stops giving experience and use the discover process to build one set of each armor.
