The following items are missing their tradeskill flags Rubicite Plate Bracer Template Rubicite Chain Bracer Template Tungsten Chain Bracer Template There are proberbly a lot more I wasn't paying attention until my smithing hammer didn't end up back in my TS bag, when I was doing Cobalt Ore (templates are flagged as TS) and I was only making bracers. Also there is no consistancy to how many in a stack for the templates some are 5, some are 10 some are 100.
It seems that you can't use them to generate anything right now. It is written as "This item is not used in any recipes." in EQTC.
Though almost all of the ores, silks and animal pelts will make templates, not all of templates make armors (especially lower level ones) - just like not all of the marrows nor loams are used in any armor recipes. Quick check templates made from Indium Ore, Iridium Ore, Rubicite Ore, Sivril Ore, Tin Ore and Tungsten Ore do not have an armor combine that uses them.
Think some of these were purely to provide a skill-up path while some are used to make cultural armors. It's like the visors, pauldrons, cloaks, belt etc are all just for skill ups.
