Best Stats and Gear Guide for Leatherworking in Midnight

All stats have their uses, but for Leatherworking we recommend focusing on Ingenuity and Resourcefulness to be able to craft high quality gear at lower costs.

For creating consumables and intermediate materials, Multicraft is your best stat. If you are also using Concentration to upgrade your consumables to maximum Rank while using cheap materials, invest into Ingenuity also.

Once you are fully maxed with profession skill, gear, and talents, you will be able to produce maximum rank items when using the best materials naturally, without needing to use Concentration, so at that point you should either swap all of your Ingenuity gear and enchants to Resourcefulness or use lower rank materials plus Concentration, instead.

For more information on profession stats and gear, please refer to our dedicated guide below:

Leatherworkers, like most other professions, can use three pieces of gear at once, 1 tool and 2 accessories. Epic-quality gear is best in slot.

Quality is a big factor in the stats you can get from the gear. Green versions are bind on equip and from trainer recipes, but blue and higher versions require specialization, faction, or renown grinding for their recipe and are bind on pickup, requiring you to submit a Crafting Order for them.

Remember to enchant your crafting tool with Enchant Tool - Haranir Multicrafting if you are focusing on reagents and consumables, Enchant Tool - Ren'dorei Ingenuity if focusing on Concentration crafting, or Enchant Tool - Amani Resourcefulness for public / chat orders without Concentration.

You can also use the Alchemy-crafted Phial Haranir Phial of Ingenuity.

Finally, consider using optional reagents such as Multicraft Matrix or Multicraft Manifold on expensive crafts that can benefit from the extra Multicraft, as these are bind on pickup anyway. Skill increasing items such as Mentor's Helpful Handiwork can be used to force a better crafting result and these can be bought and sold on the Auction House, making them useful for some of the most valuable crafts when they are being sold for cheap.
