i have herb/inscription and looking for a new way to make gold. i do ok making gold but herbs sale ok to bad , im on Mal'Ganis server and it flooded with herbs but armor sales do really good
do i get any big bounces with lw/skining?
Skinning gives you a higher crit rating, and Leatherworking gives you a pretty nice bracer enchant. Nothing huge, but I enjoy the extra 130+ intellect enchant :-)
If you change for the profession bonuses that's one thing, but you will never make the same money with Skinning/LW as with herb/inscription even if the market is flooded with herbs.
If it's flooded you buy those herbs and mill them to sell fortune cards or glyphs and whatever Burning Embers you get goes toward Darkmoon cards which I guess depending on what you get should net you a few thousand each.
