Is a profession worth it?
Today i'm pondering if a profession is worth it. Recently I have had an urge to create a JC. Why do i want this some people may ask. Well i want to be able to craft rings and necklaces to DE. I have no true intrest in the gems though they will turn a nice profit also. Im wondering if an investment into maxing my JC would be a way to increase my gold making dramaticly. If i were to do this i would purchase ore and drop mining on my warrior. Which would make him a BS/JC I would then follow the wow-proffesions guide to leveling JC. To turn a small profit while leveling I would DE the crafted items. except maybe the pre lvl 20 rings and necklaces they can turn a good profit selling to alts. Once I reached 450 i think i would purchase saronite ore to start out building my empite. I would craft the blue gems and save the greens. After saving enough green gems and making some cash off the blues I would begin to purchase the eternals needed to make rings and necklaces. After crafting them i would DE them and sell the mats i make. This could turn a great profit

ReplyDeleteI had the same thought today. Personally I'm a Ench/LW, and eventually I came to the conclusion that JC is more profitable for both playing the AH as well as min/maxing stats (i.e. haste is superior to SP as a resto shaman; being able to use Dragons Eye to make haste gems is better than the generic shaman wrist enchants). Also you're able to sustain the two professions required upon receiving a new piece of loot. Furthermore you can really gear an alt. I have yet to make a move on this though.
ReplyDeleteYeh. I'm wary to because of the over head but i was thinking about it so I figured id post about it. Well see how the gold is going after a few weeks and when my warrior hits 80. Maybe after he maxes BS ill drop mining.
ReplyDeleteFirst off Kudos for the blog. I am an avid reader of a lot of gold making blogs and yours is one of the daily required reading ones.
ReplyDeleteAs for the professions question, I find myself wanting to level more and more professions. Every time I go to buy something from the AH and see the cost of items compared to the cost of mats for most items I think to myself, if I had a a JC, BS, LW etc. I could make this myself for much cheaper. Which usually leads to me creating and power leveling an alt to get them the profession and skills needed. Mind you I still pay for the items I need. But this way I not only save myself the money for the items I need I also gain the ability to cheaply make them and sell them myself. Of course the easier way would be to just have a friend with the appropriate profession to make them.
