And in regards to tailoring, for once tailors appear to have a craftable that will retain solid gold-earning potential for the full expansion in the form of spellthreads which will retain marketable value after the pants and belts have lost their desirability when new content makes their ilvl obsolescent. As the cost of volatiles and cloth declines, spellthreads will retain value through the limitation of supply (restricted by cooldown for 5 of the 6 patterns for dreamcloth) against demand.
