For skinners: +10 Skinning speeds up farming Devilsaur and Rugged Leather. 4. Drop: occasional; grab it if you level Leatherworking and farm in melee.
On WowX5 x5 Zul'Gurub is the ideal source of pre-raid gear: a short raid lockout and faster loot let you close slots in just a few runs. Gather a group every reset.
