2 questions, T5 weapons

[kildarn]

<DIV>I'm looking to buy some t5 rare imbued crafted weapons.  Preferably cesti and cestus to get the non crushing damage types.  Having a hard time getting straight answers from some of the t5 crafters on my server as well as finding the right info on sites like eq2craft.com.  If you can fill in my blanks it would be very much appreciated.  I've never been good at knowing the trade skill stuff.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1.  Who crafts cesti and cestus?  I believe it is a weaponsmith with an initial combine from a tailor.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2.  What rare items go into these?  Pristine non sullied leather pelt (for tailer) and fulginate for the weaponsmith?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks again for any answers.</DIV>

It's definately the weaponsmiths that does the final combine, I'm not quite certain how many steps involves a tailor but I belive it's just one to make the Augmented leather plate (?), that the weaponsmith can then use in the final combine. Severed 'Augmented' Apron Gashed 'Augmented' Belt Torn 'Augmented' Bag Superb Quality Pelt All four works for making weapons, the first three are the dropped versions that can be refined down, and the superb pelt is harvested in T5 rare zones. <div></div>

Thank you very much for the reply!  So any one of those four items will work if I can get ahold of it and pass it on to a tailer.  Then they do their combine and I give that to a weaponsmith to make the final item?  Just wanna make sure I have this straight in my head.

<P>I have never involved a tailor at all.  Usually if the Wepsmith knows what he is doing you can just work out a deal with him for the combine and he will charge 15 to 25 gold depending on your server.  </P> <P>You will need to provide the T5 rare leather and the Luminous extract (made from luminous stone/flower etc)  The extract does not have to be Pristine and you will pay more for pristine extract.  You can buy the luminous stuff in the extract form on the broker for a few gold.</P>

Thanks again.  Due to the overall lack of t5 crafters on Toxxulia I'll probably have to find both the tailor and weaponsmith for this which is no problem.  Really appreciate the info though as its a big help.
