As stated before, JC is still OP when compared to other proferssions in that they can choose pretty much any stat to boost with dragons eyes. Let's say you're a ret paladin. With enchanting you get +32AP on each ring for a grand total of +64ap. Now if that same character takes JC instead, they will be able to slot 3 bold dragon's eyes in place of scarlet rubies for +33str, which in and of itself lends +66ap. But with paladin talents strength is increased another 15% before being calculated as AP, so the gems grant ~+76AP and is also affected by Kings, which the AP ring enchants won't be. So gems w/ kings would be ~83AP, ring enchants w/ kings = 64AP.

So JC is just going from vastly OP to somewhat pretty much OP.

83AP minus 64 AP = ... OP?

Stop tossing words and phrases around when you've no clue what they mean.

This just in: 19 AP for one of TWO profession slots, costing hundreds to thousands of gold to power level at level 80, when you have thousands of thousands of AP ...

Pretty damned insignificant.
