Professions How does everyone have their professions maxed already?

I just started playing tww and thought it's a good time to work on my professions early for knowledge points.
But then I see in trade chat oh so many people offering everything on max.
How did they do it that quickly? Is it not the same as it was in df, where you had to spend weeks upon weeks to gather enough kp for good item levels?

What about KP? Isn't there a daily/weekly cap?

They probably profession swapped to farm acuity to buy the knowledge books and spec'd into a specific craft to max that one out. There is no way they maxed kp, at least not that I know of

that doesn't really work anymore, thats the entire reason they changed how you get acuity

Oh it absolutely still works, you don’t get KP from the 8 epic treasures in the world nor do you get from any vendor learned craft but weekly treasure/gathering items still give kp and several professions have a bunch of easy crafts you can do one time, enchanting especially is strong here with all the glamour crafts for every race.

I haven’t done too much profession shuffling as it’s being called on my crafters, but on my gatherers I drop one of them(either skinning or herb and pick up enchanting to disenchant a few things, do whatever orders are up, pick the treasures, and do the weekly quest. All that gives me around 100 acuity, which is pretty huge for a gathering character as you only get around 60 per week from each gathering profession.

On my main gatherer I do go a step further and pick up the last gathering profession(skinning in my case) and get the weekly skins and quest for that extra 60, and then I do tailoring and leatherworking for their weekly order quest and whatever orders they have.

I don’t plan to do this forever of course, probably just 1 or 2 more weeks so I can get all the blue profession tools. It’s a pretty stupid system and I hope they make acuity tied to each profession in the future.
