Coke (and other mats?) overpriced ?

so i level my armorer and miner thinking that i don't need to farm a lot of allagan for darklight set, i never care what is coke before i get to 50 armorer and miner but then after i hit 50 on both disciple, im really really surprised... 2250 allagan for a raw material for 2 equip?
a NON HQ raw material ?
2640 and you get 2 DL gear for tank and the gear is much better than crafted set if it not HQ

what's the point of leveling DoH/Armorer if it useless at end game?
someone enlighten me please...

Hi. There are 2 ongoing threads about this in the "Items, Synthesis, and Gathering" sub-forum that you may want to check out.

9 Coke required now (or other)

Armorsmithing is useless. Coke is WAY too expensive Needed WAY too much lvl 50
