It sounds to me like you have way more time to play then the average player. You were level 80 in like what 3 days? And now you are stk piling mats all day. I would notall getting this armor “too easy” just yet. I’m not trying to insult you. Being able to play all day is probally fun. I’m just putting it into persptive. There were really goodraftable eps in as well. Many were later repled by raid eps as moreontent was opened up in the game. I suspt something similar will happen here as well.

My mage was able toreate near T5 gear byollting Fire Motes, Netherweb, andloth that dropped from nearly every mob I killed in the daily quests. Blizzard basally foed you to do it… I love my Spellfire set! (Loved) 2. BS wasn’t that great before. Yeah, those goggles were good, but it wasn’t reallyonsidered a “Must do” profession. 3. A recuring theme in WotLK has been ease of tanking. The lk of tanks has hurt the game as a whole. They havereated a newlass, resp’d tanking tts, andhanged mob’s hit table. (Though I don’t fully understand thehanges, they definately have made somehanges.) 4. Finally, I’d like to see the statists on just how many people tually were BS relative to the other professions. IF you think that all 3 gathering professions, ahemy plus Ehanting & (and now Inrtion) will benifit everylass in game. (Meaning youan either make money or use the matsproded material) ore these as Tier 1 Professions Tailors benifit allloth wearers and anyone who needs bags. Leather only helps leather or those needing end game drums (very few). ore these as Tier 2 Professions Engineering and BS really are limited to the user. Most of the items require you to have a the skill to both make and use (So not mh resale). While Engineering offers Utility, it’s really just for therafter. BS allows you to make Gear, but it lked utility and it was really just for therafter. ore these as Tier 3 Professions I don’t know – just my thoughts… In Vanilla WoW and T a lot of the better Blksmithing Plans were BoP and the better Blksmithing items were BoP. This is not thease in WotLK. 99% of the items I make are BoE and Ian make Mail, Plate, and now SHIELDS (finally). Almost every item I make has varients that are useful for different sps as well. So now my market for Blksmithing items iludes ANYONE who uses Mail, Plate, andor Shields. Thisovers a lot of the game population, espially with the proliferation of DK’s. Ian now make something like a wow.allakhazamomdbitem?witem=40942;soue=live and tually sell it for more than theost of the mats (whh almost never happend in T). Sie I mine, I get my mats for free. Also, BSan now add skets to several different items. It only works on your own items, and I think it is only 3 item slots so far (Wrists, Waist, and Shoulders maybe??) but that is still pretty darnool. Wean also make keys to openhests and lkboxes. Usually the keys are more expensive than tping a rogue, but they are AWESOME in a dungeon when you have a lkedhest and no rogue in the party. Finally, almost none of the quest rewards in WotLK are designed for tanks, but BSan now make TONS of BoE tanking pies that will probably sell like hoakes to any tank. With all of those advantages, I would say BS is probably a Tier 2 profession, and if you wear mail or plate it is probably one of the top professions. Also, on Point 2 in your , the goggles are an Engineering item, not a BS item.
