Maelstrom Crystals for 212g Constant price (More with guild perk)

[hpdark]

(Requires Enchanting) With the new firelands raid comes reputation rewards. If you have been killing some trash in there you may have became friendly with the avengers of hyjal reputation. If you're in a high lvl guild you get the bartering and bountiful bags perk. You can buy the ilvl 378 capes from the reputation vendors for the new raid for 212g and disenchant them into maelstrom crystals. With bountiful bags guild perk you can proc an extra and get 2+

Maelstrom crystal cost on AH is less than 100g, what the point of this "exploit"?

On my server they are 250g+

Just because it doesn't work for you doesn't mean it doesn't work for everyone.

Cant test it atm, because my server is down but can't imagine that it does work.
the normal rep. epics you can't disentchant.

I made a macro and accidently disenchanted my main cloak as well haha. It does indeed work, the bountiful bags proc may make it worthwhile but it's all dependent on the server, most should be 200-300 in a week. My guess is this will either be hotfixed soon or used as a way to stabilize maelstrom prices.
