Route
What to craft
Each row is the recipe the route rule picked for that skill. Train the next rank before 75 (Journeyman), 150 (Expert), 225 (Artisan). The four rank spells are still in the client; the effect stores a tier index, not a character level, so the level the trainer wants is not in these tables.

Minimum for the yellow stretches
The client does not store the yellow chance, so this is one craft per point. You will use more. It is not an expected total.

Vendor marks are only the Classic supplier reagents whose names still match in this client (vials, thread, flux, salt, bleach, iron buckles). A mark is not a check that a vendor in your city stocks the item.
Notes
What is different about Leatherworking
Kits before pants
Light Armor Kit is learned with the profession and stays orange through 30 in this route, at one Light Leather each. Light Leather itself is 3 Ruined Leather Scraps. The calculator shows scraps, not a stack of Light Leather you still have to make.
Salt is the cured-hide reagent
Cured Light, Medium and Heavy Hide take a hide plus Salt. Rugged hide takes Refined Deeprock Salt and, in this client, makes 2 cured hides per craft. Salt is tagged vendor because the item name matches the Classic supplier reagent. Refined Deeprock Salt is not on that list, so it is left untagged.
The leather ladder
Medium Leather is 4 Light Leather, Heavy is 5 Medium, Thick is 6 Heavy, Rugged is 6 Thick. Those are the reagent recipes in the client, and the total walks that ladder. A Classic chart that uses different ratios will not match.
Vendor patterns after the trainer dries up
Shared leatherworking spells turn yellow a median of 25 points earlier than in Classic Era (204 of 321 shared spells lower, none higher). Frostsaber Boots, Heavy Scorpid Helm and Timbermaw Brawlers are in the route because the wiki calls them vendor recipes and they are still giving points. Frostsaber Leather and Heavy Scorpid Scale are skins, not scraps.
FAQ
Should I take Skinning?＋
Skinning is where ruined scraps, hides and the later special leathers come from. The route does not list beasts. You can buy the leather; the total is the same either way.
Why armor kits instead of the hand-stitched set?＋
An armor kit is one Light Leather. The hand-stitched pieces cost more leather for the same guaranteed point, so the fewest-reagent rule stays on the kit until it stops being orange. At 30 the kit gives way to curing light hides, which is one hide and one salt.
Do I have to make Frostsaber Boots?＋
Only if you want the points that recipe still gives after the plain trainer crafts have gone gray or yellow. The row is labeled vendor. If you do not have the pattern, stop at the last trainer row you can make and treat the rest of the total as what the data would spend, not what you are missing from your trainer.
Why did the Classic heavy leather ratio change?＋
In this client Heavy Leather is 5 Medium Leather, not a number we copied from a Classic guide. The same check gives Medium as 4 Light, Thick as 6 Heavy and Rugged as 6 Thick. If a later build changes a reagent, the build number on this page is the one to compare.
