Currently writhebark for example both rank 1 and 2 are the same price at 200g even though it would take 5 rank 1s to make a rank 2. Rank 3 is 370g even though it would take 5 rank 2s to make a rank 3. Are the refining trees supposed to just be a trap?
I’m hoping that you can eventually put enough knowledge into it to proc to save enough mats and get multi-crafts that it may be worth doing at least for rank 3
For now getting rank 2 items is too easy and plentiful that it’s a wasted system
Instead of 5 → 1 it should be 3 → 1

Can we just have an alternative to refining since it’s still pointless at material prices. it will become even more pointless if materials aren’t as popular later on. Maybe give us something useful to replace it or grant us guaranteed procs.
I think a lot of people are posting level 1 ores at an inflated price to pump up the cost of the level 2 ones. Someone point out it might be done by bots.
The entire system is run by bots
If it was run by people, enchanting mat costs wouldn’t be cheaper than vendoring
Outside of epics there is no profit in dienchanting at all and yet the AH is full of dust and shards
it doesnt help that the point of crafting professions is to get enough skill that you dont need the highest rank mats.
kinda makes any effort to get rank 3 herbs or ore pointless

My guess is that later in the expansion, the only way to get max rank items will be to use max rank components. At that point, rank 3 (or higher) mats will cost vastly more than lower cost ones.
