I agree. The idea of having sets of armor that all work together early on and throughout the leveling process is a good one, in my opinion. Gives craftsmen a very distinctive appearance, and provides a nice haven from the usual motley.

The mail pieces seem to have not been implemented yet, but the set has.
http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?itemset=756 - It has the same set bonuses as the Borean Embrace, so I can only assume that it will be the equivalent. The "scale" in it is a bit telling as well.

On topic though, the Borean Embrace seems to be on par with the Rogue Tier 4 set, losing the massive amounts of hit gained from the set, but gaining a helluva lot of crit.

They'll get to it. The Ebon Netherscale set was bloody fantastic for Leatherworking Hunters. Personally I would like to see two mail sets, one decent Rare one at around level 78, and one kickass Epic one at 80.

the note about binding is to prevent someone at level 80 using the kit on a low level BoE and sending it to their twink

"Only usable on items level 65 or greater" seems like a more traditional approach than to make an armor kit soulbinding.

the crit rating is now across the board. it applies to strike rating and spell critical strike rating. the hybrid classes are going to take a huge boost in their versatility in wrath. stacking crit rating will send a shamans dps soaring with a similar spell and melee crit. i am unclear and am curious if anyone knows if agility is going ot add just strike rating and intel is going to add spell rating. of if they will both add to the overall strike rating stat?

Everyone told me to leveling tailoring and make the shadoweave set for my shadow priest. I already have tailoring on my warlock and I refuse to level up tailoring for 3 items that are BoP. I like enchanting and JC thank you very much. I will not deny the +dmg is huge, but the low +int makes it seem more geared towards a warlock. Plus the cooldown and/or cost is crazy on shadowcloth is crazy.....

i wish that with the return to old world style that blizz would make the higher end lw patterns look like they come from actually skinning. the druid sets are always the coolest in my opinion and i would love shaman and druid sets that reflected their ties to nature. hunters can even have some natural looking sets as the idea that they spend an ample amount of time in the elements seems to coincide with the ideas of being a hunter. rogues are going to have their own sets that druid cats might also want, so they can keep those stealthy and sleek but the appearence of the leater sets needs an upgrade.

i will agree with you that lw's need fun things to make like a carpet or flyign machine, but i really tried to think of something and came up blank.

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN IDEAS ABOUT WHAT A LEATHERWORKER COULD MAKE THAT'S UNIQUE AND SEEMS TO SYNCRONIZE WITH THE PROFESSION?

Theres ample thigns that could be done to redeem this craft..

Ranging from saddles for your mounts, the leather dyes that can change the color of your crafted gear, to maybe even saddle bags for your mounts to store goods.

those are great ideas, all i could come up with a little dark, and it was being able to make a flying dragon in the spirit of stitches and the undead in northrend.

imagine collecting some leather and scales and doing a heroic run of some sort where you collect the heart of a dragon to make ur own mount. throw in ur ideas about dyes and you could make a variety of them.
