Recipes

4 recipes

learnyellowgreengreyThe skill where each recipe can be learned, then turns yellow, green and grey. Orange recipes always give a point. A trainer's skill requirement isn't in the game files, so the learn number shows only for recipes an item teaches, and with your skill set the list assumes a trainer recipe can be learned 25 points before it turns yellow, as 9 in 10 item-taught skinning recipes can.

What creators found, checked

From beta videos by bigger WoW creators. Each line sums up what the creator said at that moment of the video, and the badge says how it holds up against the game files.

  • Partly A vendor sells an 'Apprentice Skinning Satchel', a 4-slot leatherworking bag, cheaply at low level. Xaryu notes you can pick up a profession early just to get a bag.

    The files Apprentice's Skinning Satchel 277114: 4 slots, ItemSubClass 7 'Leatherworking Bag', BagFamily 0x2000000 (the Skinning Knife 7005 now has that flag too). BuyPrice is 25 copper, not 1 copper. Herb and Mining versions exist at the same price.

    The files The quest reward is server-side. Oct 1 notes: creatures can again be skinned only once.
