Do you think DF professions should have been in the prepatch?

My thought process is that professions have been completely overhauled and so
by only making them available on launch gives an immense power to the goblins
that studied this system from top to toe before launch. So that on launch they knew exactly what knowledge
points are and where to put them, everything about sparks, recrafting and many more things.

I feel like they made professions only available to the 1% that take this game wayyy to seriously and
confined us casuals to the gathering professions if we want to make money.

And how exacly you woud do that ? crafting 70 gear on 60 or gathering new mats in old content?

Alsow you got like alot of like 10 min videos that kinda explain it all

Alsow any system that req abit more from yuo that click and forget and go with mantra “YOUR CHOICE MATTER” will end up like this

I didn’t study the system in advance.

I made mistakes by putting Talents in the wrong place.

I even completely tanked one of my Professions on one of my alts.

And I still made loads and loads of gold and have enjoyed great success in the profession system.

DF proffessions are actually a very good step forward.

Its simply feeling unfinished however,

They made proffessions approachable as a end game goal. However, we need blizzard to implement a minimum gold they csn sell for in both AH and crafting orders to prevent their gold making becoming obselete

Was it a crafting or gathering profession?

Idk i just see too many ways that you can benefit from learning profs before the launch on the beta. For example, some crafted gear have unique passive proc effects, stats, sockets and more, and some are CLEARLY way better than others (elemental lariat). With this information one can just on launch, spend all their knowledge points in the correct way, farm the right recipes like crazy, corner the market and make millions. And by the time the casuals know elemental lariat even exists and how good it is, the opportunity is gone and they get left with the scraps.

I have seen alot of comments on wowhead before the expansion launched where people expressed their dread of this scenario becoming the reality.

Tailoring and Enchanting. Both have served me very well. I started Inscription on an alt at a similar time and completely tanked it.

But with the knowledge I gained from Tailoring and Enchanting, I have been invest my points into Blacksmithing successfully on another alt.

Absolutely! Players who had access to trying out the system on Beta definitely had an advantage.

A big part of my own learning was from working out how to make higher ranks and where I needed to put my points. There was a lot of uncertainty when investing points. But I think I have it pretty much worked out now.

If I had a chance to try it in advance, I would be well ahead of where I am now.

But still you could look into the Crafts before spending points. I held off on spending my enchanting points for few days until I noticed how good weapon enchants were. And then halfway along I realised it was better to move into Writs than Devotion enchants to begin with. That led to making a huge amount of gold over the Christmas period. Now I’m just closing off the devotion trees.

But I’m not really concentrating on Enchanting anymore. I’m pulling 100-200k per day from Spamming Trade chat with my Tailoring and Blacksmithing. Which is much more fun than cancel/relisting the AH.
