With the huge demand for enchants, the prices of Cloth and Leather have sky rocketed... most notably Tempest Hide and Mistscale. On my server those two are going bananas.
We're at a point where tempest hides and mist scales are selling for 10x what they were 2-3 weeks ago.
Every single day we get posts about "how to make quick gold". Well if that's what you want, skinning is it for the next couple of weeks.
Newbies: There is practically zero investment required to get started in this. You can hit 150 skinning in less than 30 minutes and do the quests for full efficiency. Just talk to your trainers in your BFA capital and you're good to go.
