In order to complete quests faster, more efficiently, upgrade your character, improve skills and talents, you need to provide your hero with clothing and weapons of the highest level that he can use.
What is thick skin for?
Tanners create high-quality armor from various types of leather, and thick skin is especially valued, as it can be used to create not only clothes, but also weapons that cause serious damage to the enemy.
If you have chosen the profession of "leatherworking", which refers to the "producing" craft, as the main one, you should pay special attention to pumping it: you can sell the results of your work at auctions, thereby earning good money. The better your craft will be pumped, the more powerful products you can make. Some things - both clothes and weapons - made using the “thick skin” ingredient become personal when donned, and some can be sold when you “outgrow” their level. Having reached a high level in your profession, for example, “artisan” or “master”, you can use wow “rough skin” material to make things. His level is 50; Despite the fact that this material is used by both parties, you can benefit your camp if you play for the Horde.
Where to get materials
The issue of extraction of material "thick skin" WOW
I decided it very simply: you can get it almost everywhere and use it when leveling a character up to level 30 and above. As a rule, thick skin is stored in chests in both Kalimdor and the Eastern kingdoms, regardless of whether the lands belong to a certain fraction or are contested. Among other things, it can be knocked out from animals, humanoids, demons of 35-40 levels. But with rough skin the situation is more complicated: it can be obtained by "removing" from elite bots of level 50 and above - animals, dragons, demons, humanoids. To get rough skin, you need to visit the dungeons, specifically in the cache of Uzzzle Thimble in the Forgotten City.
Why do we need skin?
In addition to the obvious use in leatherworking, the “thick skin” of ten units, “donated” to the Horde, gives you certain rewards. These can be supplies for the war in Ahn'Qiraj, or the Horde Recommender. If you are interested in one of the awards - find a specialist in skinning Jamani in Orgrimmar (he is in the Alley of Spirits) and give him ten pieces.
As for products made using thick leather, they are at least “green” - that is, they give an increase to certain characteristics of the character: stamina, dexterity, spirit, strength, not counting armor. It is also possible to make things in blue: they significantly increase the characteristics of the character, and in some cases add him unique abilities. But not only green and blue things are made from rough leather, but also purple. They are famous for their significant addition to the characteristics of the Persian, unique properties, but they are rarely found. As a rule, purple items are mined in complex instances of strong bosses. You can buy them, but not for regular money. Having the ability to make green, blue and purple things, you can make good money by making clothes and weapons for other characters and selling them.
