Blacksmithing

When players start to hit max-level at the beginning of a new expansion, everyone effectively starts from the same place.

We were talking about how to revamp professions in World of Warcraft on the podcast this week, and I got to thinking about how I would do it...

For myself, I think the best time I had as a crafter in WoW was during The Burning Crusade, when I could make myself epic weapons that were on par with raid drops and upgrade them so that I could hold on to a signature weapon all expansion.

Okay, so if you're really focused on the various professions in World of Warcraft, then the last couple of expansions may have felt somewhat disappointing to you.

I'll be honest, after Legion I have a hard time getting excited for crafted items in WoW.
