While this is not, exactly, a guide, I figured I'd comment on my experiences leveling Talisman making.
In short, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be but it did make a dent in my gold and it took a bit of time.
The first tip in Talisman making is this. Don't wait forever and then do it all in one night, and, don't try and do it on the fly. Take an hour a week and work on it as you level.
I haven't been reading around the web, there may be someone out there with better ideas than me but this is what I did and I'm fairly happy with it even tho I think that it's a horribly designed crafting system.
So here's the main strategy for those of you Googlers out there.
Go download EZCraft from Curse.com. It lets you click directly on your little crafting slots in the UI and select an item to put in. Saves mouse clicks and movements and therefore time.
As you level, save every green you can get your hands on even if you can't Salvage it yet. I assume you have Salvaging or you're going to spend a fortune at the AH. Put them in your bank if you can't Salvage them.
Once in a while, I did it all one evening, but you should do it once every week or 2. Use your book of binding and find your nearest merchant.
Buy 2 or 3 stacks of Level 1, Mojo Coins, Gold dust, Containers, and your Magical Essence.
Use your guild recall scroll to go directly to your capital city
Get any fragments you have out of the bank.
Stand beside the Renown gear vendor in your city and buy 5 to 10 pieces of armour. Usually gloves are the cheapest to salvage. Turn them into fragments. Make sure you find the right level for the fragments you need before you make big purchase.
Now you should have the mats you need. Make the Talismans and watch the levels tick up.
I got from Talisman making level 20 to 112 in an hour and a bit, maybe more, and it cost me about 17 gold in renown gear for all the fragments I needed. Note that I had already gotten a bunch of fragments that were in the bank from salvaging renown and other gear along the way to attempt to keep up with my level. (28)
I just kept going until I ran out of basic mats, and in my case just did it again.
Keep in mind that you'll need to keep your renown level up in order to follow this method. You won't be able to have a level one character follow this exactly. In fact I'm not sure if there is a cap on your crafting level as compared to your character level at all.
If you're interested in Talisman making a bit more, I just read Tobold's overview about 2 seconds ago...
I have followed all things that you said. Thanks.
