Unless you want to do the Savage Blood grind it just feels like professions are already completely worthless.
I still have one guy slowly leveling, but he already hit his 3 crafted item max and now he can't even make armor for himself. Feels pointless to give armor to alts because even LFR gear is just as good. Weapons are especially pointless: I give my hunter a 630 gun and if I go to the expense of upgrading it it becomes 640, upgrade it again for a huge cost and it's 655. But even the upcoming LFR will drop 650 items. So why bother?
I'm a casual player who doesn't raid beyond LFR or do pvp. Playing around with professions and trying to max out my characters the best I could with crafted gear was a big part of what kept me playing previously. Can't remember it ever feeling like this in the past.
