When I started playing, I started with my hunter, Kurn, who picked up Skinning and Leatherworking.<\/p>\n
This combination worked beautifully for me for over a year.<\/p>\n
And then I realized I needed more money than skinning was providing for me.<\/p>\n
So, on the advice of a then-guildie, I switched to mining, for thorium ore and arcane crystal goodness.<\/p>\n
That lasted a couple of months. Then just before BC came out, literally just a couple of days, I went back to skinning. I reasoned that I needed to fund my LWing somehow and my brother was a LW, too.<\/p>\n
Once both my brother and I hit 375 LW in BC, I dropped herbalism on the pally for JC and dropped skinning on the hunter for… mining.<\/p>\n
And that’s how it’s been since May of 2007 or something like that.<\/p>\n
Then, I levelled a shaman, whose professions are mining and herbalism, to supply my paladin with ore and herbs for her JC\/alchemy.<\/p>\n
For some reason, my toons are all basically on the same server. So I have 2 herbalists (druid and shammy) and 2 miners (shammy and hunter). But I have no skinner.<\/p>\n
Since druids are hax at herbing with flight form, I didn’t want to drop that on the druid. So that left herbing on the shammy or mining on either the shammy or the hunter.<\/p>\n
Dropping either on the shammy would result in the shammy no longer being THE farm toon for my paladin.<\/p>\n
So after some thinking about it, I did it. I dropped mining, AGAIN, and picked up skinning, AGAIN.<\/p>\n
330 skinning. I’m pushing for 450 before I sleep.<\/p>\n
