The great thing about Druids and Shaman's forms is that you can gather so much faster than with any other class.<br /><br />@David - Yup, any clothie can benefit from Tailor/Enchant combo. Unfortunately, I'm much too impatient to wait for bags, so I usually end up buying them from the AH long before I would be able to craft that slot level of bag.<br /><br />@Hokie - I remember you had said that you had leveled your alts to 65 so they could do dailies, but the only Daily my DK can do is Cooking. He has 350 fishing, but I think you have to have level 70 for all the other dailies to become available.<br /><br />Actually, I'm approaching endgame from the opposite way. I LIKE gathering, I just used to hate grinding out levels, so I'd buy whatever I needed on the AH to level my professions. But now my level 67 DK has leveled to 425 Mining, and has stacks of Adamantite and Fel Iron and Cobalt in the bank, I don't need to rely on the AH as much. It's really fun flying in Nagrand, spotting Windy Clouds and nodes on the map, and being able to gather both.<br /><br />But since my druid on Demon Soul is like level 28, I imagine I'll be buying herbs for a long time. Gogo camping the Darkmoon Fair for cheap herbs! :)Bloodshrikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00593403055750661597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605424126720652223.post-68080367855056175892009-09-01T08:16:55.829-07:002009-09-01T08:16:55.829-07:00i don't have a 3 server army, merely a single ...i don't have a 3 server army, merely a single server army. read: have toons on multiple servers, but for an "army" to rival yours, they're all on one server.<br /><br />like you, i'm all about maxxing them ASAP and getting every recipe possible. like, i leveled them all to 65 pre-WOTLK to ensure i could max them to 450. even recently, i had to level two of them to 68. one to get my second spec in alchemy for procs, the other so she can fly in northrend to do her cloth CD's.<br /><br />between them, i have all professions maxxed, including two alchemists [elixir and xmute spec'd]<br /><br />to answer your main storyline question - they were all preset and predisposed of their professions from the onset. the "mains" that is. all other alts are double gatherer, always.<br /><br />i have JC/eng, miner/BS, herb/alch, tailor/enchant, skin/LW, alch/scribe - as my "mains". the only change was dropping the second alch's herbing for inscription when it came out.<br /><br />and my final point, sorry for the wall of text. i'm nearing gold cap. and i know you have plenty of cash laying around on your servers. at what point do we stop even faking like we have gatherers? i haven't hit a node or picked an herb in months. i farm the AH.HokieJayBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00973134636073808431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605424126720652223.post-13186739361539736712009-09-01T05:31:06.850-07:002009-09-01T05:31:06.850-07:00I actually started my warlock as an herbalism and ...I actually started my warlock as an herbalism and alchemist and maxed them both (in BC days) to 375. I then discovered I could get much better gear and such with other professions, so switched, first dropping herbalism for tailoring and then dropping alchemy for enchanting. Both have been good, and have good usefulness for my altoholism (bags and enchants all around!)Joarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06343975994265805336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605424126720652223.post-18687895653204344302009-08-31T19:48:06.855-07:002009-08-31T19:48:06.855-07:00I started out as a skinner and herbalist to make s...I started out as a skinner and herbalist to make some gold along the way. At 80 I ended up dropping skinning for enchanting since I was spending so much time in dungeons. No regrets about that, the gold I make from enchanting is pretty good, and you also get to enchant your rings among other things. <br /><br />The herbalism heal is still very useful to me, and (as you said) it’s a perfect gathering profession for any druid :).Nepenthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08880268337515154696noreply@blogger.com
