Once upon a time, everyone seemed to have to spec leatherworking for the various drums as they were on relatively short cooldowns and you could maintain mini heroism haste buffs and what not if everyone dropped drums in sequence.

Drums then died essentially, much like sharpening stones, chain chugging potions during combat, riding crops, wizard oils, etc. These new drums are a padding for the raid buffs. So if your running without a drood, you can have a baby gift, etc.
