Alchemy for sure, I love making my own potions and elixirs, you can also make good money off of it.
Kinda depends on my class tbh. I've always gone Tailoring/Enchanting on my mages, but it could be different if I play something else.
Ooook, so after giving it some consideration I will be doing exactly what I have been doing for all this time ever since BC on all of my mains:
dual gathering for leveling
Herbalism/Alchemy at lvl 60!
;)
I still have no clue man. What would you guys suggest for hunter? I was thinking engineering cause it fits my class somewhat, but I want to make money as well. What do you guys recommend?
One thing with engineering is that you can craft https://classic.wowhead.com/item=15997/thorium-shells from a world drop schematic. You can then trade them in to https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=14182/bounty-hunter-kolark in the Valley of Honor in Orgrimmar or https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=14183/artilleryman-sheldonore in the Commons of Ironforge for the arrow equivalent, https://classic.wowhead.com/item=18042/thorium-headed-arrow . Although the shells and arrows aren't the highest DPS projectiles for hunters (highest DPS bullets are https://classic.wowhead.com/item=13377/miniature-cannon-balls drop from an UD Strat boss and highest DPS arrows are https://classic.wowhead.com/item=12654/doomshot drop from a ZG boss), they'll likely be your easiest to obtain and 2nd highest DPS projectiles. You can save money by making these yourself and trading them in. This was another selling point for my hunter. You can also sell the shells/arrows too, since they're not BOP like the blue items I posted.
Engineering it is then, I'm sold. Making my own arrows/bullets sounds awesome. What would you recommend to level it up? Mining? Also, should I stay with mining at lvl 60? Thanks
Mining is the easiest as it allows you to generate a lot of the raw materials yourself. Not just the ore/metal, but also the gems like Malachite, Shadowgems, etc as well as stone for the different powders.
I could only vote for one, but I'm going Enchanting / Blacksmithing.
When I start out, I will go for herbalism/skinning until 60. When I hit 60, after a while I will drop skinning for engineering. So in the end it will be herbalism/engineering for me. Herbalism because high level herbs really earn you a lot of gold.
I was wondering what i should choose. As a PVP-focused player I'm going to take Engi + Skinning/Enchanting. I don't see the sense of the tailoring gear for my mage in pvp. For the leveling... herbalism and skinning.
Will go blacksmithing, and if I get in a premade guild I might even go down the armorsmith grind. Else axesmith for synergy with my warrior offtank ambition.

Does that mean you'd be building https://classic.wowhead.com/item=19169/nightfall for yourself for your 2h when not tanking?
I'll be starting out with enchanting and herbalism, then dropping enchanting for tailoring a bit later on.
Leveling my druid I will most likely pick herbalism and enchanting:
Herbalism, because it fits a druid, has a nice synergy with https://classic.wowhead.com/spell=20552/cultivation and druids can gather herbs in forms.
Enchanting, because I will definitely want to go for https://classic.wowhead.com/item=11811/smoking-heart-of-the-mountain , one of the best druid tanking trinkets, which sadly is BoP.
I'm well aware that enchanting is expensive to level, especially as a first profession, but to me it's much more bearable to get the mats while leveling instead of trying to farm them later.
Once I got the trinket I'm honestly not sure what to do.
On the one hand it would be a shame to drop enchanting after leveling it to 265 - on the other hand herbalism without alchemy isn't so great either.
I was already thinking about getting a level 35 bank and alchemy alt, which could craft all pots and elixirs for my main.
I was also thinking about engineering since I plan to do quite some PvP, but then I'm also into RP and I think druid and engineering just doesn't fit...
Oh well... :unsure:

Didn't anticipate people doing something like this. Just an oversight on my part, will add dual primary's as an option.
Ah crap. Looks like updating the options killed the poll results.
Whelp - lesson learned, get it right the first time. DOH!
teebling Is there a possiblity to add an option to maintain results even if a new option is added to a poll?
Engineering/Mining: Engineering mostly so I can wear a Green Lens. Mining for leveling engineering and for gold.
Tailoring, and skinning so I can mainly vendor leather while leveling. I'll drop skinning for engineering when I have a mining alt to supply my main.
