Also apparently when they updated these they completly forgot about the overclocked ts specific tools to improve your successrate. SOO I still need that silly macro for those, but can't do my harvesting tools. >.< Yea I'm a happy panda
The harvesting tools were intentionally the only ones changed since they're the only items you are likely to be carrying around with you all the time. Other items like the ones that improve success rate can easily be left in the bank till you decide to start a crafting session. The tools were an issue for people, in particular raiders, who were reaching the limit on the number of buffs displayed in their buff window. While this isn't something that many people in this forum were affected by, it was still quite inconvenient for a portion of the population to be unable to click the buffs off. And in order to click the buffs off, they had to be changed to being maintained spells as they are now.
The duration on the tool buffs is being upped to 240 hours (10 days) which means that even if you play a full 8 hours a day every single day, you only have to refresh them once a month. And - now you can even leave the tools in the bank once the buff is applied! I live in hopes this change should not be too onerous for anyone.
