ornate chain
Ornate chain was definitely not classic, it was added in some time after Velious launched but before Luclin.
Blacksmithing skillups after banded were always a pain in the rear in classic. This is what made blacksmiths of high level extremely rare, as most players stopped smithing once they trivialed out in banded.
Fine plate was smithable before Kunark, as were fine plate armor dyes. I cannot remember exactly when fine plate recipes were added, but I remember buying evergreen leaves from newbies in Greater Faydark in the weeks leading up to the Kunark launch, because there wasn't much else to do besides make colored armor to sell.
