Crafters didn't waste millions ranking up now useless slots (chest,shoulder,legs,etc.) Currently jewelcrafters have all useful legendary base-items (ring/neck) as to where me a leatherworker who ranked up to 4 leather and mail legs, chest and shoulders have rank 4 value-less items. Wasted gold. Wasted time. The problem is domination sockets devaluing legendries in domination slots and making you re-make them in another. Not gems that you had a year to farm that took less than a week to get enough stygia.

No we still have to recraft. Like usual they ignore the real issue of domination sockets making more than half the legendries have no value. If you ranked up shoulders, chest, helm, etc. as a crafter you wasted time and gold still. Hopefully for crafters you are a jewelcrafter because rings/necks as legendries both kept value. 90% of ranked up leatherworking/blacksmithing legendries have no value now. No this gives you a normal socket. Not a domination socket. And only on pieces that ironically are what many legendries have to be replaced to. Jewelcrafters are gonna be great. Other professions are screwed. And 90% of players need to replace 1 if not more of their legendries. Blizzard took a crap on everybody and people are celebrating that they sprayed Febreeze while still covered in crap.
