Hundreds of hours of tradeskills and farming should not meet the definition of casual for anyone lol.

Casual I tend to view as "you can obtain it with an hour here and an hour there".

Which Shawl 7 you can.

JC, Brewing, Baking, Fletching and Pottery can all be gotten to the skill level required solely through vendor bought combine. It's tedium and will take a few hours for each. But it isn't extremely costly.

Smithing isn't really required until shawl 8 so you don't need that.

Which leaves Tailoring. Come Wu's Armor, you can get to 158 skill without killing yourself too much but getting to that point will require as much time as the other 5 TSes combined.

Beyond 158 you could do but you're better off just testing your luck on the 6th shawl combine.

If you are casual but started on this server a year or two back, you EASILY could have had all tradeskills except Tailoring set to go. Tailoring you can work up a year into Velious when Wu's is out etc.

It doesn't really require any extreme raid or awesome group. Lots of stuff you could solo or duo/trio if you're a non-solo class.
