He listened to the community. Raid in HW was too hard, crafting was gated and boring not to mention all the free loot given away and gathering became harder. What happened? Players left the game in large numbers. So be careful in saying Yoshi listens to the community. You might rage quit. Having said that crafting was better in SB, though it got to be facroll easy. There was nothing hard to get the books that could take days or weeks to do in ARR. Crafting again is easy in ShB. First, the books should be like the old ARR book two that was difficult and the crafting was hard. This proc based thing sounds like a bad idea in the pre notes. Maybe it works, maybe it sucks. We will find out soon. I do remember making i110 battle gear in ARR, it was rare on my server and it was fun to see my name on the gear others wore.
I...couldn’t have said it any better myself, wow lol.
