1.) No way is it worth 10k for Power Torrent or any enchant as far as the goes, get it from your guild for free or wait until the price drops.
2.) If your raid is consistently wiping at 1% boos HP I would look at on line poker instead of WOW.
3.) You paid 30k for what you hope is a 30 dps gain. I don’t think you can see a 30dps difference.
4.) This all sounds like your wanting to look good on the server to me, save your gold for the next tear of gear and raiding is my thought.
5.) Of course it’s your gold and toon to do with as you see fit, the above is just how I see things, not attacking anyone.
that 30 dps may be the difference between a dead boss.. and a boss with 150m to reset!
As a raid leader I give out our maelstroms for free and sell them when we have a surplus, no need to make people who help get crystals buy them...
Just my two cents
Gold and making gold is relative. If you craft a couple of epics per week and sell them you make around 10k gold per week together wtih your dailys etc.
This is your game and you play it like you actually like the game. So if you care bout mounts/pets you might spend some gold on that.
You might not have time to farm so you will craft 2 epics per week if ur extremely lucky with orbs.
So what 30k is the work of one day for one person that gets up in the morning logging wow and goes to bed after logging out. Is 3 or 4 weeks work for the player that plays alot less.
If you have the gear thats worth the enchants and can get the enchants theres no reason not to do it. But if you have 346 gear or you simply have to put away all your gold for a single enchant, i really dont see why you would do that.
I have to add, if i would get HC gear now i would for sure enchant it with best enchants available.
