The Buried Sea (TBS) Fletching Guide

Fletching is a popular Tradeskill amongst Rangers and pullers since they need arrows the most. That's not all you can make with Fletching though! There's many different types of Bows added in during the Planes of Power expansion pack which sell for a butt load since they're used for Tribute turn ins later in the game. What ever reason you're raising the skill, the first 200 or so points will be quite easy for you to do since all of the materials you will be using are vendor purchased.

Once the Gates of Discord expansion pack goes live there's an alternative method to raising every Tradeskill in the game to 54. I believe these quests to be a waste of time, however, they teach you recipes that can't be learned anywhere else and for that reason must be done at least once to reach 350 Fletching. If you're interested in learning more about the GoD Tradeskill Quests then follow the link provided.

 

ArrowClass 6 Wood Point Arrow 1 - 202

All four of the items you need to make Class 6 Wood Point Arrows are sold by Fletcher Lenvale in the Plane of Knowledge. There's many more vendors that sell all four but that one is likely the universal most easy to access.

Bundled Wooden Arrow Shafts

Field Point Arrowheads

Large Groove Nocks

Set of Ceramic Arrow Vanes

 

Shining Energeiac Bow (255 Trivial)

This method of raising your Fletching requires items that are made through Jewelcrafting. You'll need Sunshard Pebbles and some vendor purchased items in order to create the Copper Conduit Large Cores that we need. There's two combines you'll need to do and the second one has a 250 Trivial.

I can only recommend this guide to people who want to raise their Jewelcrafting and Fletching side by side. Or, if you're already done Jewelcrafting and you just want to raise Fletching, this offers you a rather cheap method depending on what the price of Sunshard Pebbles are on your server. To learn more about the subcombines we need to do head over to my The Buried Sea Jewelcrafting Guide.

Glowing Energeiac Bow (330 Trivial)

Much like the previous recipe, this one also requires you to perform Jewelcrafting subcombines. This recipe requires Sunshard Ore which are much more expensive than Sunshard Pebbles generally as well as some vendor reagents as well.

Again, like the recipe before this one I can only recommend this route if you're looking to raise Jewelcrafting at the same time. For more information on each of the subcombines required head over to The Buried Sea Jewelcrafting Guide.

Additional Information

- If you choose to use a Draught of the Craftsman you'll have enough juice to max out two Tradeskills usually. So come prepared with a lot of materials before popping a pot!

- If you don't see any materials that you need listed in The Bazaar setup a Buyer on a day when you don't plan on playing much to buy the items you need. Mention in general chat what you're buying (and even pay double what the other barters ask to get peoples attention if you want). Maybe someone who is killing in the zones and reading general will offload their loot to you.

- Aside from the uses mentioned above it's useful for every player to max out all of their Tradeskills for tangible useful benefits. You can only acquire things like Artisan's Prize and Sacred Prayer Shawl of the Duke from maxing out your Tradeskills. Those of you whom are wondering if this is all even worth it, well now you know.

- Under "General" in the AA window get the Salvage AA as soon as you possibly can, preferably before you start raising all of your Tradeskills. It'll save you a lot of plat.

- As aforementioned every Tradeskill has a Trophy. Here is a list of all 6 quests for the Fletching Trophy.
