Just been wondering and can't get a straight answer of anyone in game or even on threads.. What is the Crafting Skill Cap for each craft? (Via: SC, AC, WC, ALCH, etc.)

I am really curious about this too. Didn't know it was such a big secret.

Here are the few I know of offhand

Fletching – 1130
AC – 1165
Tailoring – 1165

I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the others also cap at 1165

I’ve forgotten the actual numbers as crafting recipe change from one color to the next

When a crafting recipe turns green, you’ll need an additional 50 points to turn it gray and cap that craftskill.

Did a little searching and came across the below info at The Olde Apothecary site

Look in the FAQ section: Tools, Costs, and Limits.
The 2nd question asked is…
Q. What is the maximum skill you can have in Alchemy?
A. After patch 1.85 which introduced a higher skill recipe for the new Reactive Draining Arcanium Armor Tincture, the maximum skill level was raised to 1148. (The basic calculation to determine a skill cap level is to take the skill level of the highest recipe and add 50).

Thus using Motog’s Crafting Calculator we can find and confirm crafting skill caps

Fletching – 1130
Weaponcrafting - 1130
Alchemy – 1148
Armorcrafting - 1165
Tailoring – 1165
Seigecrafting - ?.., I once asked a Seigecrafter (iirc was LGM) what was max skill level and was told 1165

Siegecrafting - you can make everything at 1000, so max skill is no higher than 1099.
Alchemy - since new Heroism pots, max is 1150.

EDIT: Note that skill caps don't really mean much except bragging rights.
It'll take you longer to cap a skill than you'll ever save from the faster makes when the highest skill make is grey.

Thanks for the info!!! Will be useful since I am working on capping my skills, giving me an end point to what feels like a forever process. And as far as bragging rights, I'd agree, except I have a lot of down time that I do a lot of crafting.. so i'm not really missing out on playing time. (Can't do a whole lot at work as far as 'fun' game play)
