Regarding Herbalism vs Tailoring, the difference is so small that it barely matters. Its a fight by fight basis for what is actually better; If Bloodlust is used on the pull, Herbalism may lose or gain value depending on your gear, and Tailoring my lose or gain value on the same basis. Its all situational, and the two are too close for it to matter.
Bottom line is that Engineering is still vastly superior. As long as you have that, not much else matters.
