Making Wu's Armor - frustrated to say the least

[eqravenprince]

Unless I am missing something. Looks like I have to work my pottery skill up to 150 to make poison vials. Find a vendor that sells Pearls. Find an Enchanter to give the poison vials and pearls to, for them to cast thicken mana one at a time on them. Then combine that with the brewing component, silk swatch(s), and pattern only to fail 95% of the time. Wow, how are there any high level tailors. My Rogue epic quest back in the day was easier than leveling up a tailor.
