Blizzard confirms importance of profession gear in Dragonflight – World of Warcraft

In a post a few moments ago on the official forums, Drough once once more confirms the developers’ desire for professions to be a viable source of gear for all players.

Primal Chaos will be available through many outdoor max-level activities as well as Raids, Mythic+, and PvP. Even if you don’t participate, you will still get them in Heroic and Mythic dungeons, during Expeditions, once morest World Bosses, rare creatures present in the world, etc. It will take longer to get them outdoors than in a Normal raid, but high-level gear from professions will be powerful and accessible to everyone.

All you need to do to craft an epic piece of gear is get enough Primal Chaos, a Spark of Ingenuity (via a max level questline) and then either issue an Order to an experienced crfollowing or craft it yourself. same. The usual components can either be harvested by yourself, or be purchased from the Auction House and included in the Order, or provided by the manufacturer if you compensate them via your commission.

The current item level of epic gear from professions starts slightly below Normal raids at the lowest quality, with the highest offering slightly more than the first bosses. This should make some of the best gear accessible outdoors, being an important part of your progression no matter how you play.
