This quest became available for my Blacksmith after I'd completed through the Krokuun quest/cutscene The Child of Light and Shadow. My skill was not capped - I was at 789/800 and could get and complete the quest. As voldyton mentions, you will temporarily learn 4 "training" patterns that you'll need to craft to create the quest item.
- 6x [item=151923] = 12x Empyrium
- 1x [item=151924] = 15x Empyrium + 1x [item=151568]
- 1x [item=151925] = 15x Empyrium + 1x [item=151568]
Combine these items to create the [spell=248870].In total you'll need 42x Empyrium and 2x [item=151568] to complete the quest.
Once learned, the pattern will take 125/110/95x Empyrium and 10/7/5 [item=151568] to craft, depending on rank (1, 2, 3).

You can turn in this quest at Khamir in the Vindicaar.
You might want to edit the Rivet, Back Plate & Chest Plate steps - they require ORE to make, not the rivets themselves.

Description
I see my armor's caught your interest. It's made from the finest material on Argus: empyrium. I actually specialize in crafting breastplates. I could show you how to craft one, but you'll need to bring your own supplies, I'm afraid. Our stores of the ore are low and we need all that we have. But here are the plans so you'll know what you need to find...
