Pristine Leather Drop rates

Been leveling a Hunter for the past two days manage to get it to 26. problem is from level 14 to 26 i have gotten 2x Pristine Leather. but the low drop rates feels kinda weird… i got the legacy talent 5/5 for skinning and still nothing, would realy wanna know the drop rates and how it works becus atm it feels bugged

This is something that has been talked about for a couple of days on the US forums and even on the wowhead forever comment section for the item. Just make sure you submit a bug report, so that can be investigated.

Hmm, I’ve gotten them with a rogue—I’m level 18 now, with a Skinning skill of 152—about 15 in total (without a Bountiful harvest)

I’ve been leveling my shaman from 20-30 in the last couple of days. Since the level cap got increased to 30 I got 0 Frilled Lichen. I’m picking every herb I see, I was also just grinding herbalism for about an hour in Southern Barrens. Still nothing. I’ve gotten them just fine before. Something doesn’t seem to work as intended.

Same, lvling palafin from 10-20. Silverpine/westfall. Next to no lichen since the cap increase, and literally non since we got legacy points.

There is a post on classicwow reddit that claims to have done tests. According to those ALL “tier 1” scarce items are unobtainable after level 25. That might explain the seeming drought of it.

It is just rare reagent. Buy it in AH if you need it so much. if you feel that it’s too rare, submit a feedback, that’s what beta is for.

I also think that some reagents are unnecessarily rare. I already foresee big issues with some tailoring crafts. At first I really enjoyed the revamped professions, but it seems that free lunch is only at the beginning. Very quickly it becomes a twink profession, suitable only if you can send big gold from your main.
