Just started playing WoW about a week ago, already level 70ish and looking to invest some time and/or gold into professions so I can make more gold later on.

I picked up Skinning/Leatherworking at first because I thought I'd be able to craft myself some neat Leather gear but I'm pretty disappointed with the results so far.

I heard Tailoring and Enchanting are probably the best gold-making professions but I wanted more advice before I un-learn Skinning/Leatherworking and make the switch.

Anyone can help me figure this out please?

By the way, I'm playing a Restoration/Balance Druid.

I think enchanting is pretty useful if u getting rid of items it depends what your goals are really, i prefer skinning and enchanting

Gathering professions are gonna be hot once Legion comes out.

Either you go with skinning/herbalism, or whatever you want.

Up to you.

Talking about the present, I would say crafting 705 axes, they go for about 30k on my server. (if you have bs)

I dont want to spam your guide which is awesome and helped me a lot. Like seriously I made like 1 mil gold last month (previously my monthly income was like 200-300k) but i'd add fishing to this guide. If you have maxed out fishing and level 3 fishing shack you can get frostdeep minnows which sell on my server for 1-2k each. I usually get like 2-3 minnows every 10 minutes with 1100 fishing skill (worm supreme, fishing hat and fishing pole).
You can get 2 mounts (tcg riding turtle mount and sea turtle mount) from minnows so those little shits sell super quick.

you are welcome

Management is quite solid profession. 1 hour at work will buy you tens of thousands of gold, even more.

Don't go to healthcare, while it's a solid job the wage is not very good.

Gathering professions are always nice when new content comes out. This and crafted gear, no matter if its for your class or others.

Right now though, any profession wont get you THAT much gold since everyone is waiting for the new expansion. I'd say get as much gold as you can but the best thing you can do is lvl as many profession as possible for the next expansion. No matter what crafting or gathering profession you have, the market will explode once Legion comes out.
