Right, and I still stand by that.

Especially with regards to things like Ulduar hardmodes. A more accurate execution of all the wacky positioning, timing and strategic elements of Ulduar bosses guarentee success far more than giving every caster DPS 8 more spellpower.

But then, the mere concept of a change to a profession causing a guild as a whole to say "Okay, every single person in our raid, drop jewlecrafting, pick up blacksmithing, two sockets are better than Dragon's Eyes by 8 Spellpower. No I don't care that you're a clothie and can't use -anything- from the skill besides the profession bonus, that 8 spellpower is the only thing making it so we can kill Yogg!" completely blows my mind.

I'd suggest instead that if a decrease in 8 spellpower is enough to make it so you can't actually complete the boss fight, that you aren't particularly hardcore after all.
