Key milestones

- Heavy Runecloth Bandage is taught for free at 290 skill by the Triage doctors. Warcraft Wiki
Leveling outline
- Turn early linen and wool into bandages instead of vendoring it.
- Buy the Expert book once your skill allows it.
- Do Triage as soon as you have the level and skill for Artisan.
Best pairing
Tailoring. First Aid and Tailoring compete for the same cloth, so plan which one gets your runecloth.
Who benefits from First Aid
- Warriors and Rogues: Classes with no healing spells rely on bandages to recover and survive.
- Hardcore players: A bandage is an emergency heal that needs no mana.
