This revision of the Tailoring FAQ is dedicated to n’Jessi (NJ62) for all of her time and hard work. She is the ultimate Tailor.
NOTE: Parts of this guide were written immediately after the NGE, and may not contain accurate information. Use at your own risk.
Most of this FAQ was taken from v. 2.0 by n’Jessi. We are very grateful for her work in creating and maintaining the previous FAQ.
Original acknowledgment: A special thanks to Anabelle and Vandessa, and all the other members of this forum whose work I have plagiarized.
