"We have reverted yesterday's change to require Profession skill for using high iLvl crafted items. This will be a requirement on future items, but for now you should be able to again wear the crafted gear you've been using."

It's a reasonable compromise. They clearly didn't want players to be able to drop professions but keep wearing the BOP gear, which is why you won't be able to go going forward. At the same time, they didn't want to punish players who spent the last month not realizing they needed to either swap professions or replace their crafted piece.

More like they didn't announce this shit and they got the backlash they deserved.

I guess because I've been maining a 70 twink for so long, I've gotten used to this. (PvE speaking. Raids get nerfed and buffed, procs on some items change, bosses suddenly gain or lose hp / damage, stuff like that. All unanounced. Profession changes are part of this.) Originally Posted by Hextor

A better alternative would be to make the crap BoE so the profession isn't crap. Maybe when we go to Sea World later my LW's dive suits will become more useful.

Yet another spot Blizzard could learn from other games, ones that do professions SO much better, WoW professions are trash because they refuse to give them useful gear.

The thing is, it has been this way before if I remember correctly. Whereas you could only wear it if you have the profession. It was that way for a reason. But when they bring in these new devs and new ideas, no one seems to be looking back and learning from their predecessors mistakes and just making the same ones over and over
