TheWoWDBWhy isn't this 20 Gleaming Shards? Why Blizzard?
Why not take away some of the abundant and underutilized resource out of the economy, but instead the one that is already scarce?

You do lose the dust on handin so I'm not really sure if this is worth it early.
Why does this quest not only require the most scarce resource they have in the game now due to the low as all get out drops of greens in this expansion. *Seriously why am I getting more blues than greens...
But it also requires you to have 20, exactly, of a very specific version of the dust. IN my version, I have to have 20 of the lowest level. Even though I have higher levels, they are not counting towards this progress.
I knew it was going to be a disaster for this profession when they implemented the stupidness of mulit-levels of the same reagent... But I didn't know it'd be this bad.

Description
Dust is the foundation of the art of enchantment. Where novice enchanters turn up their noses at such a common material, a master understands its versatility. Bring me Storm Dust. No matter our expertise, we must always return to the fundamentals.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
