As a new player, I have not found anyone talking about Profession's unique utilities or the impacts on Gameplay content, but how to make gold.
For example: Just realized you can get a Battle Res if you have Enginering and Potion's effects are enhanced if you choose alchemy.
Mind doing a TOP tier profession based on utilities provided or items exclusive enchantments only for those with certain profession?
I don't think these gold andies do much content beyond sitting in menus and trying to make gold. Alchemy's shit for making gold, but yeah, as somebody who's only kinda sorta looking into goldmaking a little bit but is otherwise pretty poor in-game, alchemy making my phials last an hour instead of just 30 minutes has saved me so much gold through this season of M+ and raiding. I did convert one of my characters into a dual gatherer (herbalism and mining), but it was deliberately a character I don't do much content on. With that said, engineering CR is nice and all, but I'll always try and push for an actual CR class in any decent keys I do, because engineering CR is melee range and thus a bit unreliable at the best of times. With that said though, it'd be nice to know if there are any other big boons for facets of the game outside of just making gold with different professions, I agree.
Im a new player too but blacksmithing helped me alot to gear up while i was strugling with gears for days
Really appreciate your breakdown on each profession.
I hope it was helpful!
Found your channel today and subscribed. Keep up the good work !
I have only been playing wow for a month. Your videos help me so much :)
That’s so awesome to hear, thanks so much for watching! Welcome to WoW, I hope you’ve been enjoying it!
Hi Penguin, really glad I’ve watched all your videos before release and I now have all of them up, including 3 jewelcrafting, 2 inscription and 2 alchemy twice to get diversity in talent trees. I’m not much of a gold maker but I’m usually aiming for independance 🇫🇷
I think you should also mention artisan’s mettle somewhere in your videos, some professions generates plenty while other need a lot. I find myself having characters with thousands and others painfully waiting for some.
My top list would be as follows :
- Inscription : fun, a lot of recipes easy to reach, missives with resourcefulness maxed is unexpected income with regular awakened X saved.
- Alchemy : also fun ! I like the gamble aspect when crafting for myself or my guild but ah cancel war, no thanks. I paired it with a gathering profession so It generates artisan’s mettles.
- Leatherworking : great when you focus on comps, very nice with profession tools !! This is usually my favorite but chosing between mail or leather is very disappointing.
- Blacksmithing : very happy to procure high level weapons for my main characters so early in the game ! Cost me so much though to buy all those alloys since I rushed the weapons … one has to make some sacrifices.
- Engineering : because fisherfriend otherwise I hate this profession.
- Jewelcrafting : lariat cast shadows all over the place but nice when you have ton of alts and also with profession tools.
- Tailoring : cloaks for the alts but then as you said garmentcrafting is sad and feels like a dead end.
- Enchanting : since I like to do all by myself I feel like I can’t get all enchantments needed rank 3 on my own which is a problem.
Btw thank god for the bottle of pheromones in skinning. I ve been waiting for years for this kind of thing … 🥰
Love you !
Thats a great list! And yea, mettle can definitely be a struggle for some professions, my biggest tip is to work on your Artisan's Consortium rep! Once you get into the valued/esteemed ranks youll get a hefty bonus each week!
Wow I went in thinking I wanted to do enchanting and tailoring and this video sold me!
Love your videos! Very informative thank you
Thank you for watching!
Im with you about Blacksmithing!!..It was always my favorite. Its so grinding now its a bummer!!
Thank you for another great video. My main is Ench/Tailor and am definitely enjoying the $$
Thats awesome!
My go to was always alchemy and jewelcrafting in the past, but this expansion I've got to say thank god for leatherworking, tailoring and enchanting! I've managed to shuffle over 3 million gold in 2 months and geared up my alts and main with leatherworking. Too bad you have to decide whether you want to focus on leather or mail, otherwise it would have been my favourite.
Btw love your content! Always informative and no viewsfarming. Keep up the work.
Seems like we have a very similar list and preferences haha! Glad you could make a ton of gold shuffling and thanks so much for watching!
How did you did that? Can you give me absolutely ANY tip about making gold? I'm unnemployed so i can't barely pay my own mensal
@@ignan1923 Penguin already published a guide on the tailoring enchanting shuffle a while ago. Before this method spread on youtube, you were able to gain a 400-600% profit out of disenchanting crated armor. (around 15-20 gold investment for 80-100 gold return). Unfortunately, this method spread like wildfire as it was the easiest way to generate money with no risk at all.
This is called arbitrage in economics. Generation of money with no risk does not work for long time because everyone wants to make money with no risk, therefore increasing the supply of said product, drastically decreasing the demand (due to self production) and subsequently create a balance between expenses and revenues.
TLDR: not possible anymore. You can still make money, but just a fraction of what was possible earlier. At this point, boosting is the only reliable source of high gold generation without an alt army.
Love your vids Penguin! keep going!
Thank you Ted!
Love the summary of each profession.
I'd like ro see a video on shuffles if you are willing to do it.
I know it may disrupt the market slightly in the present, but I'm always struggling to find shuffles going into a new expansion. Some resources on how to find them would be appreciated.
Hey! I already have two videos about shuffles that may be able to help you out!
Disenchant Shuffling: ua-cam.com/video/crk3hWC38y4/v-deo.html
Other Shuffles: ua-cam.com/video/SC0f-BVzCNA/v-deo.html
as always nice video. For me blacksmithing made 30mil in DF so far (only alloys) so would place it higher but you had to start early to do it
Thank you Futa! If it was the start of DF, I would definitely have ranked Blacksmithing higher, it was great at the start!
That's interesting to hear. I have had some profit success with Inscription and a great deal of income through Blacksmithing. Tailoring was making a great income in bags early on, but recently has hit a wall on my server. You can only make about 10-15g per bag now (normal bags) and even the chronoweave is hit and miss. I am going to have to take a closer look at enchanting but, i haven't found a way to make a single item for profit yet. As always love your content and good to hear other perspectives!
Thanks so much for watching Vladamyr! Im glad you are finding success with a few professions, hopefully Enchanting works out for you soon!
New to wow here! thanks for the vid! Quick question for tailoring is there a prefer gathering to pair it up with?
Great video! What would be really helpful is a guide on how to make profit on a profession when you're so far behind the hardcore goblins on knowledge points (such as if you were starting now). Max you can get on your first week is like 60 KP. Some people have 250!
This video may be able to point you into the right direction (ua-cam.com/video/7MGAqXBxzZI/v-deo.html), Even if you are behind now, keep going - soon youll be in a state when you can make profit. With many professions, even without the "full amount" of KPs, theres plenty of gold still available
@@Penguinr2gt appreciate the response, thank you. I'm a tailor/enchanter atm and it seems like there is no profit to be made from enchanting but I make about 50g per bag with tailoring but in quite small volumes (don't sell that fast on my server). I have watched your video about the disenchanting shuffle though and am thinking about trying that. Takes a while to get TSM etc. setup but it could be semi-passive income while I clean the house etc.
I would love to see a video on what the professions have to offer for passive or mostly passive gold making. Like right now, I am taking enchanting and tailoring on my characters just for the extra drops I have to do nothing extra for. Are there other professions like this or something else you would recommend for low effort gold making with professions?
Hey! This video might be able to help you out, its technically directed to people with lots of alts, but even doing it with 2 toons or even 1 is beneficial! ua-cam.com/video/1imsmEOCxbQ/v-deo.html
Good one, keep it up.
Great Video ! Il have a drood with mining and gathering. Now i play a DH with engineering but i don't know what to choose for the second profession. Any Idea?
Honestly I recommend any profession on this list besides alchemy lol. Whichever profession you choose, you need to make sure you keep up with your profession weeklies and leveling it up, so I also recommend picking a profession that seems interesting to you
What would help is to know not only what profession is good but also which items are good to sell. I have Blacksmith and on my caster Tailoring but because of the fact i have no high end recipes i cant make money with it because with the standard items i have so much competition that i got always undercut in no time. Very frustrating to start with professions especially blacksmith is damn expensiv.
does the first node of primal extraction from enchanting effect the bait infusions from skinning? in other words can you get more rousing elements if you did infusions decay, order, frost, earth with the first node of primal extraction active?
Primal extraction helps herb/mining bonuses so I assume it works for skinning as well - but I personally haven’t tested it
Hi, in which specialization path do I have to focus to craft the blue silken lining in quality 3? Or in that specific item it's almost impossible to reach that point and have to rely on inspiration? Thanks.
Hey, you can guarantee quality 3s if you use quality 3 materials and have all your skill nodes maxed out. Remember that Azureweave Tailoring in the Needlework tree affects the craft too! (many people miss this one)
If someone could help that would be great!! If I get enchanting what should my other profession be?
Like with professions go with each other? I’m just starting out making alts and I’m confused as what should have what. I hope that makes sense, any help much appreciated:-)
I play with 3 characters. A night elf hunter which has skinning and leather working, a human mage with enchanting and tailoring, lastly a dwarf warrior with mining and blacksmithing. Since I don’t do pvp, these 3 characters compliment each other so I don’t have to depend on the auction house so much.
I don't play the auction house, but I just wanted to say that I enjoyed the video, as always. Fwiw I like blacksmithing and tailoring.
Thank you Kit!
For me it's:
enchanting < bs < lw < engi < tailoring < jc < insc < alchi
enchanting is so terrible it's not even a joke. 6 sales per day per server per enchant, constantly undercut and no profit. Alchemy you can do as much as you want, it always sells. And Inscription also always sells but takes time to craft. Shame they murdered fortune cookies in 10.0.7 tho, insc would be #1.
Professions which sell so much that you do not have to sit in the ah at all, just post twice per day, have got to be on top.
Quick question - What would you take on an evoker? double gatherer due to the racial or ?? I already have lw on my druid. So I'm doubting what to go for.
If you want to gather, then yes the racial is useful, but if you know you arent going to take the time to gather, just pick up crafting professions that interest yoou
@@Penguinr2gt Thanks for the reply - It was more, that I was wondering which ones to pair.
Am alt capped tyvm for analysis
if its making gold well it seems about right though transmutes are a good seller so idk with the alch. Now best for you if its like that well JC is near the top with alch than bs lw or tailor is next for your class
this is a great video thanks for making it
i been doing alchemy since bfa and its usually a unending supply of gold each day around 100k but this expansion its really hard to make it work i have a alchemy with pretty good points but i can barely make any gold most of the times i lose gold and im on a full pop server on eu i tried jewelcrafting too but its the same thing same as my miner and herbalist to be honest i dont know if its me or this expansion is just too hard to make a profit
Lots of people are struggling this expansion with making gold, everything is so new and prices are changing constantly, it takes time to adjust!
i don't really get why they do this but for EU there are certain people that purposely drive down the prices of potions/phials.
always down to the point where your only way to make profit is to have the best stats.
and it's not people simply undercuting but the same group of people placing small orders around 50s to 2g less than min price at that moment, again and again until the price is back down.
@@Buttersaemmel yes that is a big issue in the EU
Would you recommend Tailoring for a non-cloth user?
100%!
I haven’t done much with professions yet but which ones would you say would be best to do at this point?
For a beginner, tailoring is probably my current #1 choice followed by Leatherworking or alchemy depending on your alt status. If you haven’t already, I recommend checking out my second most recent video (simple ways to make gold in 10.2) as those will give you some methods tied to professions you may enjoy!
@@Penguinr2gt thank ye, i have made not good gold, like at most made 200k over the expansion
thanks for the video. im a warrior is it ok that i pick up tailoring for earning gold? i am currently is minering and herbalist.
Sure. Class doesn’t matter for goldmaking
@@Penguinr2gt Do you have a guide where which knowledge points Should I add if I want to craft boot and cap for example?
@@icyknightster12 if you go to my Dragonflight prep playlist, you can search thru the basic tree setups for the profession you need!
excellent tank you
For me Artisan Mettle kill leveling profession. I have no renown, i play casually.
Tailor enchant was the best set profession from SL expansion and DF haha
Gotta love them!
previous xpac bags still sell and the bag size is not that much different
Yep, another reason why I love tailoring - so much old world gold
love your channel bro, it's simple and you know what. for once a goblin that's not trying to sell me their outdated guide for 19.99 😅
Thank you GT for watching the videos!
The biggest problem for me is that to sell anything I need to sit at the ah for an hour and cancel scan. Yeah I know thats how region ah works but other than crafted gear there isn't really anything else to do in crafting. Got the skill for missives but cancel scanning something that makes 20g profit just feels bad, runed writherbarks are so camped and runes most of the time don't make profit. I just maxed out JC and it's gonna be the same probably. I'm just at the point where I'm maxing out trees and feels like I'm already too late. On the flipside, seems like old glyphs are making profit again and lot of people forgot about this market. I need a big restock though.
Yea, lots of DF markets depend on being active with the AH (or trade chat if you go the work order route), not sure if youve done a ton of old world, but you did mention glyphs, might be a great time for you to start diving into old world markets
I don't know, maybe it's just my very populated region wide market, but anything I try just isn't selling. Crafted 100 standard bags, they haven't sold all for 2 weeks while crashing during the time (and I reposted them every 10 hours). I even crafted like 10 blue bags but after a month they still haven't sold, I lost like 50k doing that. Don't know how you can be selling so much stuff, they just don't sell on my realm. Even tailoring cooldowns are loss generating on my realm (based on craftsim)
Cancel scanning is key - you need to be actively reposting your items especially on full pop servers
for those who want to start now with a profession, which ones would you recommend for long term gold gains?
I would recommend basically any profession besides alchemy lol… I’m particularly bias towards tailoring, enchanting, and inscription but it’s up to you!
@@Penguinr2gt another question, enchantment and jewelry, what are the attributes I should focus on?
For enchanting, inspiration is super important and then just work on your skill. In terms of jewelcrafting it depends on what you want to do. If you are doing gems, you should worry about skill, if you are doing reagents, you want inspiration like enchanting
@@Penguinr2gt thank you very much, it helped a lot ^^ I love your videos!
ur the best
Thanks for the video, just came back and am broke lol. Time to get grinding.
You got this!
spec in professions is important as is play style and renounds are key lets say 4 tailors each maxed with no spec points well ds and val will do best
I just wanna add that, as always with goldmaking, the best method is highly dependent on your server's economy. I've been selling BS pvp gear at 10k a piece, about one sold every hour, and it takes me like 15secs to craft and post, cancel scanning only once every 3 hours. Just yesterday I discovered an untapped Eng market on my server; I never bothered with Eng bc I heard it was bad, yet with about 10k of investment to level it, I made 30k in 2 hrs just selling green prof tools at 7-10k each. On the other hand, stuff like tailoring bags do very badly on my server because the sale volume is very low (about 5 sales every 2-3 hours, at maybe 100g profit each).
So unless you are on a super high pop server where the market is saturated, always check your server's economy! Chances are that there exist gold opportunities to be found.
100%, the beauty of goldmaking is that there’s never 1 right answer, all of our servers are different, you gotta get out there and try things
Haven't sold a single zapthrottle soul inhaler in a week :(
I could cancel scan more, but I probably do it 10ish times a day. My server might just be too competitive.
Yea, You probably are just running into too much competition. On my med pop I sell about 3-4 a day with only a little bit of canceling
I've sold a bunch of inhalers as well..also sold quite a few tents(toy). Going for 1000g each on my server. $$
Great video. I enjoyed hearing your opinions and the reasons behind them. However, in future, please don’t have someone hammering away at the left side of the screen. It’s distracting an exhausting.
the best part is when I switched from tailoring to Alchemy for DF launch :)
😳
@@Penguinr2gt I know 😞
How much gold have you made this expansion
It’s a bit hard to say since TSM loses data but I am up a few million in-game and have been able to fill up my blizz balance and subs for 2 of my accounts
Brrooo 😢 i was gonna make a philophers stone with alchemy but really its a dead end profession with the product taking up bag space.
Alchemy is horrible to make gold with, the only gold making perhaps that works are the primal contigents. BS is pretty bad too but the saving grace is crafting old recipes. JC is the best I think due to the battle pets.
i used to make gold from certificate of owenrship with enscription but some people decided to ruin that market, went from 800G to 86G per and now you cant even make profit on those leaving me with a stock of 500+.
Yep those used to be a great market :/
@@Penguinr2gt its geting a bit beter. it went from 80G to somewhere in the mid 100s. maybe we should tell people more that lowering the price so mutch wont give you profit and if you want to guarante sales thay need to do cancel scans. its last in first out people and pricing dont mater that mutch. also therse a thing about the certificat of ownership that i keep to myself inbefore no one is going to buy my leftover stock XP
I saw a video that had alch in S tier, put all my gold into it just to realize it actually sucks 😂 seems to be ok for raiding so I didn’t just drop it but I am disappointed
yea, Alchemy is roughhhhhhh
Definitely misspent all points: scribe (missives rip) / JC (gems rip) / BS (small armour rip) / enchanting (no shuffle co-profs)
You didn’t misspend all of them! You likely just need to reinforce them. Missives are great if you can guarantee q3s, gems are great as well if you can guarantee them too. (If you can’t yet, you likely just need to work on your skill). Armor definitely isn’t the best if you don’t do crafting order things but you can recover! And enchanting makes plenty of gold with enchants themselves assuming you have high inspiration!
Wait Alchemy is lower than inscription? I wouldn’t have guessed
Inscription is so good in Dragonflight right now, I shouldve put it higher on the list :P
For me from worst to best is worst: all of them best: none, and here’s why. I play mostly m+ and I do not have that much time for it as well on df same like in SL I’ve got 1-2h a week to spend gold making. In SL that was enough to make 100 to 200 if I’m lucky a week that way I’ve made over 10mln. In DF sometimes I do not have time gather all knowledge and do quests that way I’m super far behind and it’s extremely extremely hard to make profit if 2month into xpac you like 20-40 points behind then everyone else. If gold making is your main thing you probably having a blast right now but if it’s 2nd the. It’s kind of hard imo. But that only might be me
Had a stroke reading this
So it is still tailoring+Enchanting? Lol so they managed to get to Dragonflight, they managed to repeat (not improve!) vanilla and they still did not balanced two best professions since vanilla?
What a bunch of simpletons.
Edit: very good content, thanks!
The common theme in your discussions of each profession is the element of a HUGE time sink for each one… I can’t wait for your analyses of the time required for 9.0 expansion crafting and 10.0 crafting… for those players that had a profession or two to help finance their wow play. 10.0 has been an absolute disaster… where guilds had many participants in professions in earlier expansions, they now only have one or two per profession due to the unnecessary complexity and HUGE grind requirements in both knowledge and skills plus the normal rep grinds… only players who actually only do professions as their wow time, have benefitted from the new system… thus yes you are making huge gold but mostly because so many have left the marketplace… thus you and influencers like you who can spend 8-12 hours a day benefit whilst those who cannot afford that time sync due to school, work, and / or family just can’t compete… so instead of snarky comments, I await the time comparison between 9.0 professions initial setup and then maintenance compared to 10.0, and then explain how this new system is fun and engaging if you are limited to just 10 hours play a week, with 6 hours dedicated to raid / pvp, two hours to rep grind and two hours to professions…
Are these rankings still relevant?
Only big change I would make is to put enchanting lower than margins have slimmed out. It’s still a profitable profession, just not as profitable as before
I just came back with minning and JC and i have to say it kinda sucks hahah
Sadly with gathering you only get as much gold as time you put in. Jewelcrafting is definitely not the best either unless you’ve been speccing it out since the start
@@Penguinr2gt i Will level an alt and Go for enchant and tailor 😊
Engineering not being at the bottom is kinda sus
Engineering has made me a ton of gold
alchemy is a mess atm
They really massacred alchemy in this expansion. Hoping for some love in the future.
Oh no lord forbid alchemy have 1 bad expansion
Alchemy really struggles with the Region Wide AH, hopefully itll get better!
Made 7mil from JC and only 1.5mil from BS...:(
Blizzard, make BS great again!
1.5 million is still pretty good! But yes, I miss my Blacksmithing :P
yeah Enchanting is easily making a killing this expansion, it's practically gross.
there is no profit making bags. false ranking overall
These rankings are my personal preference - and the profitability of bags all comes down to the realm you play on
i sell 10-20 reagent bags a day for around 30g profit. Everything in tailoring is straight profit.
