1. (Frostmourne) [Item] Black Lotus spawn rates need to be dramatically increased

    Flask of Distilled Wisdom is the BiS flask for Holy Paladins, and they require a Black Lotus to be crafted. However, now that there are fewer people leveling Herbalism these days, Black Lotus are essentially nonexistent in the AH and spawn very very slowly. You can farm maybe 2-3 per hour if you're lucky.

    Since there's only a few spawn locations in the world, I would suggest increasing the spawn rate by a ton, like +1000% or more. Right now Black Lotus sells for about 100g each on Horde AH and 75g each on Alliance AH. Flasks of Distilled Wisdom cost at least 200g on Horde AH, meaning a 4 hour raid night costs 800g just in flasks, not including potions.

    Seems like an easy, low-impact decision to make.

  2. Another suggestion could be to make Black Lotus a rare drop chance in level 275-300 herbs, kind of like Fel Lotus/Frost Lotus is for Outland and Northrend. Something's gotta be done though, poor Paladins will have to be using elixirs eventually if prices keep going up.

  3. Scarcity of a rare item - and enhanced by players if really herbalists aren't bothering - isn't a reason to increase spawn rates. This is the sort of "issue" players have to solve themselves in-game.
