Mining: Iron ores only give iron nuggets even when being 100+ mining skill, makes it too tedious to lvl up skill

Prospecting legion ores doesn't work properly : First - you shouldn't loot any color gem chip when prospecting felslate or leystone ore, the color of these gems chips only will be shown in the loot tab and then turn white when you loot them. only gem bags may have a chance to drop color gems which are completely useless. Second - there is a new system developed in legion to track and farm a particular raw gem which doesn't work at all. more information can be found here: https://youtube.com/watch?v=36JUjnnPfTk:

any developer wants to watch this 5 minutes video ? please at least mention this problem and sort it on pending issues.

Cooking
If you've learned Legion recipes already, you can't make the Nomi Quest "A good recipes list" (http://www.wowhead.com/quest=40990/a-good-recipe-list)
Also "Opening the Test Kitchen" (http://de.wowhead.com/quest=40991/kuchenexperimente) isn't doable since you can't loot the fish.

Tailoring
Don't know if it's just me but there aren't any quests to learn more Legion tailoring recipes.

Is it possible to get tol'vir fragments? Been getting digsites at tol'vir but they give me troll fragments instead of tol'vir.

Legion Tailoring, Leatherworking and Blacksmithing
Bug description: The items you craft should have random secondary stats (ex: Haste+Mastery=of the Zephyr) and they currently don't. Superior (815 ilvl) Jewelcrafting rings and Tailoring cloaks already have these.

MAJOR EDIT: Okay so I'm gonna rewrite this whole post as I ran into a major issue with Herbalism and a reply to ingame ticket stated to post my issue in detail on this thread. So here goes.

Something has really gone awry with how the herbs are supposed to level you in vanilla settings. Basically you start off on smaller herbs and then make your way to herbs found in higher maps. Problem is the server is no longer following this precedent and has locked my herbalism skill at 115. No matter what herbs I pick, they won't level me at all. Consider the following :

Exhibit A: Mageroyal https://i.imgur.com/BBDgYu0.jpg
Exhibit B: Briarthorn https://i.imgur.com/CEmltka.jpg
Exhibit C: Bruiseweed https://i.imgur.com/82fub77.jpg

At level 115, if you notice the bottom right, all three of these herbs have gone grey. According to online guides, these herbs are supposed to level herbalism upto a comfortable level of 150. Additionally both mageroyal and briarthorn are severely bugged 80% of the time as they turn up mostly empty or spawn swiftthistle occasionally i.e the drop rate of both the herbs are extremely low. Only bruiseweed has a 100% loot rate.

Now I thought I could circumnavigate this issue but collecting higher level herbs. But... for some very weird reason the herbs from higher maps are greyed out too...

Exhibit D: Golden Sansam https://i.imgur.com/3Rzz6jT.jpg

This map is so beyond my level, the mobs around show up as skull to me. Yet, the herbs here won't push me beyond my 115 mark either. These herbs level herbalism skill past 285. Yet they do nothing for my present level.

Finally, I decided to consult the guides once more and saw the following picture: http://i.imgur.com/Gvs3zLw.png

So I decided to have a look in the Ruins of Alterac. I thought I couldn't be more surprised, yet...

Exhibit E: https://i.imgur.com/kHbvgAk.jpg

A herb that is red but requires level 125... whatever this herb is, it's harder to harvest than herbs in maps 20 levels over. Unfortunately we don't have Herbalist's spade ingame because it wasn't providing the skill bonus and thus was taken out for fixing. Regrettably, it was marked as low priority... over 1 year and 8 months ago. It still remains absent ingame and thus can't be used to harvest these herbs by enhancing skill through it. Freakz link btw: https://www.wow-freakz.com/item_finder.php?item=85663&&name=herbalist-s-spade

Now I won't lie, this isn't a game breaker per se. But it is time consuming with no level enhancements in return and is an issue nonetheless. Please consider adding these on the list as well.

Furthermore, secondary professions are suffering greatly as well:

Fishing/Cooking: Draenor fishes don't give you eggs/flesh. The 5 stacks are consumed but you get nothing out of it. Due to that you can't level cooking or do fishing dailies either. Also schools of fishes/flotsam in Pandaria are turning up empty.

Plus:

The Joy of Draenor Cooking: https://www.wow-freakz.com/item_finder.php?item=111387&&name=the-joy-of-draenor-cooking

It won't enhance your cooking to 700. No matter how many you consume, the cooking level remains locked to 600.

Fishing guide to Draenor: https://www.wow-freakz.com/item_finder.php?item=111356

This is supposed to be caught from first try in open waters. Was this changed on purpose for Freakz? It really has a very low drop rate right now which is counter to the guide posted by Ashcool here: https://forum.wow-freakz.com/Legion-Fishing-Guide-1-800-t458293.html

Hope these reports help. Thank you.

You can get the next rank of skinning by simply skinning mobs at the new Legion zones until you get https://www.wow-freakz.com/item_finder.php?item=129860&&name=stonehide-leather-sample or https://www.wow-freakz.com/item_finder.php?item=129862&&name=stormscale-sample which will give you a quest. The reward for these quests is https://www.wow-freakz.com/spells.php?spell=201707&&name=legion-skinner which upgrades your maximum skinning skill to 800. You only need to get one of these quests, you don't need both.

But I can't even skin legion creatures because "Skill not high enough". Or do I level up to 700 first in old zones?
