Tailoring leveling guide 1-300
15 steps from 1 to 300 on Forever's own skill-up points (build 1.60.1.70790). Up to 225 the route uses the recipes players leveled with on the beta, starting each one as soon as trainers teach it; past 225 it takes the cheapest skill-ups the client has. Forever moved 22 of the Classic route's recipes to lower skill, so Classic guides run out early.
