Leveling Herbalism for BFA

[Seexy]

Hi,

I will be picking herbalism as a new profession, should I start farming from 1-800, or should I wait for the prebatch since I read somewhere that they will squish the skill cap; which will make leveling a new profession much more easier ?

Professions are totally being changed up in BFA. Each expansion will be broken up into its own 1-100 skill level. So classic herbalism will have its own 1-100 bar, BC its own, and so on. People who have professions maxed now will have 100 in all the expansions' bars for now. So you'll be able to begin levelling BFA herbalism at 1 to 100 right away. You can totally go back and level the other ones whenever you want.

So, as soon as BFA is launched on 14th of august, does this means that; a player with 0 skill in herbalism will be able to collect herbs effectively at the same level compared to a player who have 800 skill currently ?

Yup. Everyone who goes and buys training for BFA herbalism or however it goes will be at 1/100 and even.

Having 800 herbalism now just means you'll have 100 in classic, BC, wrath, cata, etc herbalism. Blizz made a statement on it. Having say 450 herbalism will give you 100 in classic, bc, wrath, and cata, and 50 in MoP herbalism, and so forth.

There are several parallel tiers in each profession for each expansion. The one for classic maxes at 300, the ones for expansions max at 75 or 100 depending on which expansion it is. You are likely seeing the figure for the classic tier for bs and mining, and the figure for some other (legion?) tier for alch and herbalism.
