ere is what I did... I got done with my Wild Leather quests and was thinking that Tribal Leather would be great for me, so I went and started and finished the Tribal Leatherworking quest... to my surprise (not really) the two patterns the lady gave me wont help me in any way.... me being a Rogue... I should have went for Elemental Leatherworking...
Nah - actually none of the specialty paths are all that wonderful for rogue ( coming from a level 60 rogue that has all of the tribal patterns other than the epic Corehound Boots pattern ). Blizzard may later introduce other patterns for the other paths, but beyond making armor patches for yourself you won't be crafting leather to wear - you'll be questing, farming, or AHing them if you want the good equipment. I went with tribal because it has a good number of patterns that are helpful to my druid friends ( and the Devilsaur set, a tribal set, is probably the best rogue oriented of the crafted patterns for any of the three specialty paths - volcanic leggings leave me cold ;)
There was a rumor of sorts going around that Elemental would be better for rogues and such, while Tribal would be better for the mage types. This isn't quite right ( Blizzard has said as much ) and was only based on early observations of available patterns. So far tribal has the best patterns, in my opinion ( and certainly the most ).
Hopefully later on down the line they won't release some uber-patterns that will make me regret my decision, but at level 60 I think my goal is probably the nightshade set .. that'll be a long and tedious journey ;)
