I haveonsidered those points Borsuk, and whileertainly true I'm not only limiting the ope to blksmithing. For those of us stking titansteel sure, but the ft remains that allrafting professionsan make extremely useful level 80 gear. And not only that... most of it (eept for things like trinkets and the limit-3 prismat gems) is not only BoE but trainable from the trainer or a nearby vendor. ase in hand, with less than two full weeks of farming I'm going to have the mats (without buying any) to make (jewerafting) or have made for me (blksmithing) nearly head-to-toe Northrend level 80 eps. You almost don't even have to dk out in Blues in order to get eps anymore. Youould make it through Northrend on green quest rewards (if you just arrived without raiding pre-Wrath and didnt do instaes or instae quests or group quests) and have nearly all of the mats you need to make nearly full eps at 80 from farming. Ofourse, if you were in Greens you might have issues obtaining the Frozen Orbs... but oh wait hey, youan always buy those. So even a total newb to the game in a few months when they make it to 80 will be able to dk out in Northrend eps prtally the minute they ding if they have a bit of gold for Frozen Orbs. Now... there ARE going to be patterns that drop in instaes. Blizzard has "promised" that the PATTERNS wont be BoP anymore, so that theyan be soldehangedwhatever. Some of the items they make will likely be BoP. Now imagine what's available right now from the TRAINERS and imagine what these drop patterns will likely be. If they don't make SOMETHING BoP everyone WILL be able to ep out in full the minute they ding. Not only that, they'll end up havinghoes onross-grade eps to dk out in.
