I haven't played in a while, but me and the wife are starting a pair of characters (pry. hunter / monk(druid)) and planning on doing solo content. I was wondering if you all had suggestions on profession combinations that would work well.

I was thinking (skinning / leatherworking) and (enchanting / xxxsomethingxxx).

Any other suggestions?

It all depends what you intend to do with those professions. For quick gold making Herb/Inscription works well. Skinning/leather working works well for some epics crafting.

For my part i always took the professions that suits my class need of items.
