Do we really need all those Baits?
Bards have no Arrows or Bolts for their Weapons.
Why does a Fisher needs then Baits?

Do we need so much Gear?
There is new Gear for every second Level each Class reaches.
Why not change it to every 5 Level? Even then it would be still a lot.
For all Gear and Weapons we could have a Book to collect them all.
Once you get new Gear, click it and choose in that long List of things that can be don't with Gear ... collect. Tadaaaaa Job Done.
Collected Gear could keep it's orginal Stats and if it is needet just take it out of the Book. WoW has done that for all heirlooms. Collected Gear can't be sold anymore on the Market or to NPC's and it can't be used for Desynthesis. So no exploit can happen, like get that Item 1 Million times out of the Book and make a fortune with Desynthesis.

Do we need all those non HQ & HQ crafting Materials?
Would it be not be better if we could convert non HQ Material to HQ Materials. Take 5-10-15 or even 20 non HQ Materials and make 1 HQ out of it.
