Dofus News - Tailoring Guide
Posted by Jon Wood on Dec 22, 2008 | 4 comments in our forums
MMORPG.com Dofus Correspondent nathan Swanson writes this guide to the tailoring craft in Ankama's Dofus.
Before we begin, I would like to first state that by becoming a tailor, you are starting down a long, long, long road. The tailor profession is considered by many to be the hardest (but most profitable) profession in the game. In other words, the light at the end of this tunnel will be very bright, but the time it takes to get there will be very long, and the amount of Kamas that you invest … well, you probably don’t want to know.
Secondly, if you are f2p (free-to-play) and plan to stay that way, don’t even bother. You really don’t make any money as a tailor until level 40, and it’s a HUGE Kamas investment until then – much more than what a f2p can bring in. In mean, you can’t even get a tailor manual unless a p2p (pay-to-play) gets one for you – small hint there.

"you can’t even get a tailor manual unless a p2p (pay-to-play) gets one for you – small hint there"
That quote really cracked me up. If they restrict trade professions to only paying players it is NOT free to play. What you have is a trial offer. Hence Dofus is not one of the f2p games.
You can train some crafting professions to lvl 30 with f2p account.
What they say is you have to find somebody with p2p account to buy/get the tailor's manual for you.
Cool guide. There aren't much good guides in English yet. Looking forward to see new ones from you :)
For me, when a game restricts skills to paying customers, it is no longer f2p, what you are seeing is what I consider a trial offer. I understand your point that you can buy this in game from someone if you have enough cash, but my general experience is those items are far too expensive for the f2p players.
Hence the game is really not a true f2p and should not be advertised as such.
