How do I do this? I've been accustomed to games telling you how to tradeskill very easy. With EQ there isn't a guild or anything so I don't know how to begin tradeskilling in the early game.
Depends on what you want to make. I dunno... it's all in the wiki if you want detailed info on everything which would be a little silly to try to write about everything here... as there is a LOT [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Like for brewing, not everyone should take it up as you would think. But for certain things like other tradeskills it's useful. For consumables, it's mostly useful for warriors and warrior hybrids, but many don't bother here as much as I remember on live. To raise brewing early on, you mostly buy ingredients off vendors. The wiki links all the vendors in the recipe lists.

Food is a mix, some you can buy off vendors and other things like meat etc you get from mob drops. Or as I mentioned, tons of wolf meat on newbie vendors that sells for cheap and can raise baking fast. Sometimes other meat around too.

All just depends what you are after. Takes a lot of time to raise tradeskills, lots and lots of time. The more tradeskills you have, the longer it takes. It's not easy here at all like in other games, newer games. In some other games, I have done every tradeskill really fast (e.g. GW2 most recent). I've been working on them here for years and still don't have them all up as it really really does slow down past 120 or so. Most I listed that I have are between 150-200 apart from jewelcraft and poisoning which is 50 or so.

Anyway, there are so many ingredients, you would need to research what you would need, then hunt the stuff that'll give you the drops. That's how you raise it as you level up if you do it that way. It depends on the tradeskill and/or what you are trying to make.

So you were worried about low str on your ranger, and that was my recommendation for you. I spent a good deal of time outfitting my ranger here, and ranger was my main on early live. I only maxed fletching there though, then some others to 100 or so, like stat food and alcohol etc. Some tailored bag making. I mostly did all my tradeskill fun in UO at the time hehe.
