Crafting Professions worth it in Beta yet?

Since, you know, you’ve got pieces of legendaries tied to them?

Did you just answer your own question?

no :rofl: :rofl:

Not at all.

Just because Leggos will be necessary doesn’t mean they’re worth the cost of having a crafting profession.

What is the cost of having a crafting profession?

You’ve never leveled a crafting profession, I take it then.

Wait what lol?

Yes, they are absolutely worth it and will be worth it for as long as players are still crafting legendaries.
Its feasible to believe that this will go down heavily at some point, but what are the alternatives?

If crafting the most important item in the expansion isn’t considered worth it, I’m not sure what game you are playing.

Some one has to make these items, so you might as well take the profession that helps you do so the most, even if you are planning on dropping it later.

Outside of legendaries though, its still up in the air. They are ATTEMPTING to make it worth it with the optional reagents, but seems like they are habitually low-balling the potential power of these crafts.

All it would take to change this though is raid-ilvl reagents dropping from the raid or something similar.

I’ve leveled pretty much all of the crafting profesions at some point. I can’t say that I felt any of them cost me anything.

Some, like alchemy and enchanting have saved me a ton of gold.

Well, doing double gathering to just buy the Legendaries off the AH, for example, may end up being more cost effective for most.

Maybe. The prices will be high at first but they’ll lower pretty fast, especially considering how easy they are to craft.

And yet you name two of the more expensive professions. >.>

Late in the expansion, maybe.
Certainly not early.
You’d be selling the materials to people making the legendaries anyway?
Why not just make them yourself haha…

Because I won’t bother if the investment for a single item just isn’t worth it in the long run.

It will be dozens of items and upgrades to those items.
Will take a LONG time to get everything.

if you make three times the gold with mining/herb than you would with lw it makes more sense to dual gather. i guess it depends on if you’re willing to no life crafting to make leggos for others, or if you’d stop for yourself. if you won’t no life it’s probably better to dual gather tbh.

yes because people are really going to make every single trash legendary there is. 0.o

We’re not getting bigger bags in SL, right?

So even the argument of mass weaving bags isn’t strong this time round.

no, no bags at all. you’ll still use the 30 slots from this expansion for alts and the 32 slots for more loved toons.

I certainly hope so (and I hope we can level up to mythic crafting through pvp!).

Yes, they are.
