Professions is one of the most important things while making money . You can only have two professions, so you have to choose wisely. There is two kinds of professions. The first one is gathering professions, the second is crafting professions. You must have atleast one gathering profession, the gathring profession makes a benefit difference of the outcome if you wanna make money. Your second profession can be a crafting profession if you like to (some may want to create their gear in level 80), but a second gathering profession is pretty much preffered if you wanna get the best income of money.

Gathering Professions

Skinning – Skinning allows players to gather leather and hides by skinning animals. Leather and hides are used for leatherworking. Leather is also used for some blacksmithing, engineering, and tailoring recipes. For skinning you will be needing a skinning knife, which can be bought from a merchant who sell profession-related items.

Mining – Mining is used to extract ores, stones, and gems from mineral nodes found throughout the world. Generally, more of these nodes can be found in the underground than on the surface. In addition to gathering the raw materials, it’s up to the miners to smelt the ores taken from the ground into metal bars. These are the raw materials that artisans such as Blacksmiths and Engineers is using. For mining you will be needing a Mining Pick which can be bought from a merchant who sell profession-related items.

Herbalism – With Herbalism you can gather herbs and plant all over the world. Herbalism is an almost necessary requirement for Alchemy. Alchemy is a great skill that allows you to generate all sorts of instant and temporary potions to improve a character’s effectiveness.

Crafting Professions

Contrary to popular belief, amassing gold in World of Warcraft isn’t rocket science. Arguably one of the best ways for increasing your gold-earning potential is by utilizing the Best WoW Professions for Gold.

Tailoring

Tailoring focuses on Crafting Cloth Armor and Bags from various Cloths, Threads, and other rarer materials. Unlike other Crafting professions, it doesn't have a Gathering profession associated with it, but players often pair it with Enchanting, as skilling up Tailoring creates a large number of Uncommon Items that can be Dusted for Enchanting purposes. Cloths mainly come from slain Humanoid Enemies and the amount of them that is needed for skilling up Tailoring forces Tailors to do quite a lot of mob grinding/spending money on Auction House.

Tailoring allows Players to make three Bind on Pickup Robes: Robe of the Void for Warlocks, Robe of the Archmage for Mages (Best in Slot before AQ 40), and the Truefaith Vestments for Priests (please note that these items are BoP and therefore can not be traded to other Players). The other notable Tailoring Crafts are Flarecore Leggings (they grant 16 Fire Resistance and 43 Spell Power), the Bloodvine Garb Set (available from Zul'Gurub Raid, provides Intellect, Spell Damage and Healing, and Spell Hit), Sylvan Set (recipes available from AQ Raids, it provides some Spell Power and a lot Nature Resistance that is mandatory for Princess Huhuran as well as some other AQ40 encounters), and Felcloth Items (Felcloth Hood, Felcloth Gloves, and Felcloth Bag, which is a 24 Slot Soul Bag), unlike the above-mentioned Robes, these Items can be sold to other Players, and will provide you with some nice profit when Crafted and sold on the Auction House. There are also Bottomless Bags (18 slots), that are expensive to make but sought out by rich players nevertheless.

Alchemy

Alchemy can be expensive to level, but has a high payoff. Unlike Skinning, Alchemy will continue to be profitable throughout all of WoW Classic, and will eventually become S-Tier as more people reach level 60 and start to raid, most likely around phase 2 or 3. The best way to make money as an Alchemist is to craft potions, elixirs, and flasks to sell on the Auction House. The best crafting choices are listed below. The most profitable potions to craft come down to knowing what the most popular consumables are that people use during raids, specifically Molten Core.

For the best possible profit margins, you should pair this with Herbalism. Additionally, timing is also incredibly important. Most guilds raid on Tuesday or Wednesday nights (depending on your reset day), which means most people will be looking to buy these consumables on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. To make the most gold, you will want to craft and stock up on potions throughout the week, and then list them with an 8 hour duration on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon at a premium.

Blacksmithing

In Legion, Blacksmithing offers a superb potential for decent profit and it’s also a great option for more casual players. By focusing on crafting the more profitable items, you should be able to acquire a hefty amount of gold.

If you have your Blacksmith level maxed out (800), then consider these two craftable items for maximum profit:

Steelhound Harness (Mount)

Required recipe: Fel Core Hound Harness

Reagents: x100 Demonsteel Bar, x50 Blood of Sargeras, x10 Infernal Brimstone, x10 Felhide

Average price on the AH:48.248 gold

Rethu’s Incessant Courage (Waist, Plate)

Reagents: x1 Hammer of Forgotten Heroes, x1 Nethershard Essence, x65 Blood of Sargeras, x125 Demonsteel Bar

Average price on the AH: 76.761 gold

As you can clearly see, investing some time in acquiring the needed materials for these incredibly profitable items, will earn you boatloads of gold. However, due to the more complicated nature of Blacksmithing, it only takes the bronze in this list.

Are there other BfA Professions that are lucrative?

Although the Herbalism/Alchemy combo is pretty hard to beat when it comes to sheer gold-earning potential, there are other professions that earn you decent gold as well. And here the top ones:

Gathering

Mining

Skinning

Crafting

Inscription

Cooking

Blacksmithing

Enchanting

Jewelcrafting

From this list, mining goes really well with Blacksmithing and Jewelcrafting, while good old Herbalism can be a great addition to Inscription. And no, the inclusion of Cooking isn’t by accident. Although Cooking has always been the underdog when it comes to professions in World of Warcraft, it has a hidden potential in BfA.

You see, cooking consumables generally sell between 20g to 30g on the AH and they’re quite easy to craft. What this means is that if you commit to it, you can sell thousands of cooking items each day, making huge amounts of gold in the process. Even if you sell them for 10g or even 5g, it can be very lucrative indeed.

Tailoring – Tailoring allows players to cut and weave various pieces of cloth into armor, bags, shirts, and other cloth items. Tailors can create cloth items for cloth wearing classes: Mages, Warlocks, and Priests. Tailors play an especially important role in guilds because they can create bags for the entire guild. They can also create specialty bags such as Herbalism bags that can increase gathering for the guild. They can learn powerful rare recipes as the highest levels which allow them to create powerful gear useful in raiding. Tailors can create shirts or dress-up items. Tailors do not require any special equipment to create their items, such as blacksmiths require anvils. Tailors can create items wherever they want, as long as they have the proper required ingredients. Tailoring does not require a gathering profession. Proper ingredients must be gathered from monsters or purchased from other players. If your friends know you’re a tailor they also may collect tailoring ingredients for you, provided you let them know exactly what you need.
