Sardonis sent us a note the other day, with an interesting, if probably controversial, point inside: when we're in instances, Skinners take their skins, Miners take their ores, and Herbalists take their wow po herbs (or of course they rotate around if there's more than one). At the end of the instance, we don't sit down and /roll on all of the herbs or ores that people have picked up. So why do we do it, Sardonis asks, with disenchanting shards?


Good question. But if everyone can get their friendly guild enchanter to enchant something, can't you get your Leatherworker to use skins, or your Blacksmith to use ores? Of course, you could argue that Leatherworkers gold jewelry can get skins from anywhere, but disenchanted blues only show up in instances. And what about Rogues who unlock chests in instances -- sure, we need them to open the chests, but they need us to get them there. My first response was that everyone needs enchants, and everyone can use those mats. If it's an item that required five (or wow items even 25) people to get, everyone should have a chance at it. There are herbs and ores in instances, true, but those can be found elsewhere as well -- they don't need a group to get them. .
You can get blues through questing and drops, though, too, so who knows who deserves what. The tradition seems to be that cheapest wow gold we all roll when we've all helped drop some boss loot, but it's true that we'd never get the shards if it weren't for DE'ers. Sardonis is at the point where he won't even say he's a disenchanter -- he'll just do a greed roll like everyone else, acheter wow po and if he gets wow gold sale the item, then he'll DE it. Maybe they do deserve to take what they make.
