I do realize that this is the damage dealing forum, however the class roles forums seem to be the only ones that get any attention. Shards are essentially useless right now, few enchants call for them. Yet they drop from higher level items. It is somewhat frustrating that greater cosmics go for far more on the Auction house then a shard from a higher level item. Any way you can reapproriate the cost of the items for more use of shards and less use of greater cosmics?

Thanks

In BC we thought that dust was too common and enchants were basically gated by the cost and availability of shards. We wanted to adjust this for LK and in retrospect overcompensated, such that dust is now the rare, limiting reagent.

As Excrusiate points out, this should be better next patch.
