    CRAFTING
    General changes:
    * Normalized the rate of gaining skill points for all recipes across all professions.
    * All crafting daily quest reward bags have been rebalanced.

    - To offset this, reward bags now have more rare rewards including Salvaged Materials, Augments, Artisan’s Marks and Master Craftsman’s Marks.
    * Ironhide now has an increased chance to be skinned from level 52 mobs.

    Crafting Specialty Goods Merchant:

    * The random Augment boxes have been removed.

    APOTHECARY

    * Most recipes requiring Vinegar Concoctions have been changed to use an appropriate-tier bone or tooth instead.
    * Removed recipes that had Notoriety requirements from the Apothecary Artisan Store. They are still sold by their respective Notoriety Quartermasters.
    * All valid Apothecary reagents now stack to 99. To aid with identification, some reagent icons have been updated.
    * Some reagent prices have been adjusted.
    * The following recipes have been adjusted so they reach yellow and green difficulty sooner:
    - Heroic Healing Tonic, Heroic Heartshatter Vial, Heroic Spiritshatter Vial, Tenacity, all Vials of [Element] Resistance.

    SALVAGING
    * Salvage loot tables have been cleaned up. You will no longer sometimes be awarded with materials from the incorrect tier.
    * Salvage materials no longer need to be combined into Salvaged, Reclaimed, Processed, or Refined materials.
    - All recipes that require Salvaged Materials now use the base material.
    - If you have combined Salvage items in your bank or bags, you will be able to convert these back to their component parts.
    * Salvaged Bones have been completely removed from all Salvage tables.
    - They are now flagged as Trash items.
    - Normal Bone type crafting material can still be salvaged from items that awarded them previously.
    * Uncommon and Rare items will salvage into normal Salvaged Materials.
    * Epic items will salvage into Epic Salvaged Materials.
    - Epic Salvaged Materials are required for all Epic Augment recipes.
    - Epic Salvaged Materials also have a very low chance of being rewarded through the skill 300 Crafting Daily reward bags.


    AUGMENTS
    * All Augment recipes now require Salvaged Materials.
    * Several Augments will no longer drop in the world and cannot be crafted or acquired by any means. They will not be removed from players who currently have them. If you still have one hiding in your bank, you will be able to use it.
    - Scorpid Stinger
    - Centair Tail
    - Faerie Wing
    - Phylactery
    - Mistwalker Essence
    - Gravemaker Hide
    - Harpy Feather
    - Werewolf Blood
    - Dragon Turtle Shell
    - Treant Bark
    - Basilisk Tail

    * All other existing Augments have been renamed to better communicate the bonuses they will apply.
    - Below is a list of the existing Augment and its new name (they are named for the bonus it applies, plus a prefix to indicate tier/relative power, ex: Lesser Dexterity). The format is Old Name: New Name without tier indicator.
    - Vespid Stinger: Attack Power
    - Hellhound Heart: Endurance and Parry
    - Wight Essence: Strength and Attack Power
    - Thick Troll Hide: Strength and Melee Crit
    - Adrenalite: Strength
    - Etherialite: Intelligence
    - Saintstone: Wisdom
    - Thiefstone: Dexterity
    - Vitalium: Endurance
    - Sobek Eye: Spell Crit
    - Bogling Eye: Dodge
    - Deep One Tooth: Endurance and Block
    - Whelp Scale: Wisdom and Spell Power
    - Griffon Hide: Wisdom and Spell Crit
    - Golem Core: Spell Power
    - Satyr Horn: Endurance and Dodge
    - Naga Scale: Intelligence and Spell Power
    - Gnar Pincer: Intelligence and Spell Crit
    - Dragonian Scale: Melee Crit
    - Barghest Fang: Parry
    - Demon Horn: Dexterity and Attack Power
    - Razormaw Spine: Dexterity and Melee Crit

    * Several new Augments have been added to fill the gaps in the Augment system.
    - Block
    - Deflect
    - Crit Power
    - Strength and Crit Power
    - Wisdom and Crit Power
    - Intelligence and Crit Power
    - Dexterity and Crit Power
    - Endurance and Deflect

    * Augments will no longer drop in the world. They can now only be acquired through crafting and the crafting daily quest reward bag.
    - All Augments can now be crafted by each profession except Runecrafter.
    - New recipes for all of the below Augments can be found on your profession trainer and at your profession’s Artisan Store merchant.
    - Uncommon Augments can be trained at your crafting profession trainer at skill levels 50, 150, and 225.
    - Rare and Epic Augments can be purchased at your crafting profession Artisan Store for Artisan’s Marks and Master Craftsman’s Marks.
    - Because of the changes and reductions to the material costs of the recipes, all Augment recipes will now only make one Augment.
    - Existing Uncommon Augment recipes have been removed from the Artisan Store merchant. If you already purchased these recipes, but had not trained them yet, you will still be able to learn the recipe from the scroll.
    * The bonus stats applied by Augments have been normalized. In some cases, this mean dual-stat Augments will be slightly better than their single-stat counterparts. Because of this, dual-stat Augments are generally more expensive to craft.

    * The available Augments are broken down amongst the professions as follows:
    * Apothecary
    - Dexterity
    - Endurance
    - Intelligence
    - Wisdom
    - Strength
    - Crit Power (new Augment)
    * Armorsmith
    - Attack Power
    - Block (new Augment)
    - Endurance and Parry
    - Strength and Attack Power
    - Strength and Melee Crit
    - Strength and Crit Power (new Augment)
    * Artificer:
    - Spell Crit
    - Dodge
    - Endurance and Block
    - Wisdom and Spell Power
    - Wisdom and Spell Crit
    - Wisdom and Crit Power (new Augment)
    * Outfitter:
    - Spell Power
    - Deflect (new Augment)
    - Endurance and Dodge
    - Intelligence and Spell Power
    - Intelligence and Spell Crit
    - Intelligence and Crit Power (New Augment)
    * Weaponsmith:
    - Melee Crit
    - Parry
    - Endurance and Deflect (new Augment)
    - Dexterity and Attack Power
    - Dexterity and Melee Crit
    - Dexterity and Crit Power (new Augment)

    CRAFTED TEMPORARY ENHANCEMENTS
    * All Temporary Enhancement recipes require normal crafting materials. They no longer require any Salvage Materials to craft.
    * The tooltips for Armor Plating have been updated to reflect that the bonus is Armor and not “Physical Resistance”.
    * Armor contributions from Armor Plating have been increased to improve their value and usability.
    * Whetstones and Oilstones no longer add “Weapon DPS”. They have been converted to add Attack Power instead.
    * New ranks of Oilstone have been added to smooth out enhancement progression.
    * New ranks of Powerstone have been added to smooth out enhancement progression.
    * The Spell Power bonus given by Powerstones has been reduced. Powerstones are now equal to Oilstones in terms of the bonus they will apply.
    * Manastones are no longer restricted to Totems. They can be applied to any Offhand item.
    * Witchstones are no longer restricted to Staves. They can be applied to any 2-handed item.
    * Sticky Grips will no longer reduce Disarm effects in PvP.
    * Spellstones will no longer reduce Silence effects in PvP.
    * All Temporary Enhancements now stack to 99.

    A note on manastones...apart from "Does anyone even use them?"

    Wouldn't it be an idea for these to be a Wand item so people might even use them, as the ammount of mana they give is far outweighed by the crit and SP temps.

    Just a thought.

    I completely second the suggestion above. Please make it so recipes already known can be filtered out.

    It's being changed to being usable on any off hand item, please check Amary's second post.

    * Manastones are no longer restricted to Totems. They can be applied to any Offhand item.

    I'd like to second (third?) this idea! It should also be the default view when looking at the available recipes at the start of the conversation. Just a checkbox or something that "Filters Known".

    Thanks!

    Does that mean the flavor text names are going away? I like my "Naga Scales", heheh.
    MMO corporations try to say "all content is free" when all sorts of mounts, costumes, titles, equipment and pets are locked behind a paywall. In any other genre, those things are "content".
    For those of us interested in said content (it carries as much real-world value as raiding drops), things *do* change with a cash-shop where price tags are far higher than a sub.

    Sad day when anti-Disarm/Silence temporaries can't be used in PVP. Next on the chopping block; Potions, Whet/Oil/Spellstones, Food buffs...

    This just means they can be applied to anything that goes into the One Hand slot, ie shields, wands fall in the Ranged slot. I was not able to place them on a wand.

    On a side note, I also submitted this as a bug, the Icy Glyph from Planar Attunement is still restricted to totems only and should be changed to match the one hand change.

    Yes I read and comprehend that bit, except wands occupy the same slot as a bow or a gun on a warrior or rogue, they are not "Off-Hand" slots. The Off-Hand slot is the LEFT HAND on the character and typically has a totem type thing in it or a shield. The WAND slot is totally diffenrant.

    Yes, and sometimes people use a staff or 2-handed hammer, but also want to use a powerstone and a manastone. I don't really care what slot ultimately they are applied to, just decide if casters should be able to use the two consumables at the same time or not. There should be a better reason that 2-handed casters can't use both consumables at the same time than items only support one temporary buff at a time.

    Then I've said nothing and I'll move along.

    " - All Augments can now be crafted by each profession except Runecrafter. "

    Just Why Not? - this happened before and now again? Why Not?

    Can't help but notice that its mentioned that the "Dusty Treasure Hunter Satchel Recipe" has been modified... was that recipe added in 1.11? because that satchel was a unique 24 slot bag added back in 1.5. I'm confused.
