Hey Blizz - Where's the Love for Crafters?

#0 - Nov. 10, 2008, 5:45 p.m.

It started when you guys added the daily quest "Gaining the Advantage" where gatherers had to collect Nether Residue. This is a quest that can only be gotten and completed by those with gathering professions.

Now you've given all gatherers (and only gatherers) buffs that are based on their profession.

So why all the love for gatherers and no love for crafters? As it's been the gatherers are already the ones who have been able to make the most money off of their professions. Isn't it just a bit unfair to penalize craters because of the profession they chose years ago? and yeah, I know that I can always drop tailoring and enchanting but I really shouldn't have to.

All crafters have their personal buffs too. Like ring enchants for enchanters or the unique shoulder enchants for those with inscription. They all have a special buff whether it's a crafting or gathering profession.

Q u o t e:

All crafters? what is it for engineering? being poor?

Yeah, anytime you have an engineering item on you your gold will decay by itself, even going into negatives.

Q u o t e:
Engineers have self-enchants, trinkets only they can use, and epic goggles and guns that are BoP. Some may argue that these suck compared to what others get but the fact still stands that they get these.

Yes, it is unique "enchants".

Q u o t e:
Sweet, as long as repair bots give all their profits to their maker.

No, the profits are given to goblins as a charity for all their hard work.
