What do you mean "Requires cloth found on humanoids"? I want to learn about tailor.

You know when you kill stuff like furbolgs, gnolls, venture co members etc and they drop something called linen cloth? This cloth is the principle ingredient in tailoring. As you get better at tailoring and get better recipes, they require better cloth. The order of cloth goes linen, wool, silk, mageweave, runecloth, felcloth/mooncloth. The level humanoid you kill determines what tier cloth you receive. So from level 1 until the late teens you get linen cloth, from the late teens to the late 20s you get wool cloth, and so on. I might advise against taking tailoring as a druid though - it can get quite expensive and most of the stuff you make you won't wear due to leather generally being better.

What would be the best profesion combo for a druid?
Tailoring is out and that pretty much means enchanting is out as well (cause say what you will tailoring helps greatly with enchanting).
herb/alchemy? Its a good one and I think thats my first choice. You can use it and its quite the money maker.
skin/leatherworking? I would advise against it. Its slow to grind (leatherworking) and you cant make that much money of it. But thats me, maybe you are luckier then me.
Blacksmithy ... yeah right. Only for money.
mineing/engeneering? Not my first choice, but it does have potential. And mineing will make you money.

From skinning you could make decent money on my server at least, if you sold the skins instead of using them. At least that's what I hear, but I rather use them myself. Leatherworking is pretty non-profitable for me too.

Professions have changed now that there are a slew of people with maxed out skills. Enchanting, Tailoring, Leatherworking and Alchemy won't net you anything until you hit the high level recipes (250ish). As for doing it for your character, ie tailor for mage/lock or leather for rogue/druid, you'll be able to find better and/or cheaper stuff from your guildies or AH. So imo any character coming on the scene now would be better off with a gathering profession like mine/herb. That'll net you some bank for other items.

Engineering is a lot of fun, definitely more fun than Alchemy. Alchemy is necessary for classes like rogues, that have no self healing or buffs. They drink a pot for almost every add. I drink health potions very rarely, and when I don't have any mana I swing my mace a bit until I can get into bear form.
I only carry health potions now.
Druids also rock the buff.
What druids could do with is a bit more DD if not balance-specced. Which is where the death ray comes in. And, let's face it, Engineering is all round cool :)

Cooking, First Aid and Fishing don't take up profession slots, they're free. So if you took up herb/alch and wanted to get rid of one or both heres what to do. Go to your character screen and hit the skills tab. Scroll down until you find the professions and hit the red box with the golden circle and line next to it. You'll get a confirmation box, hit yes and its gone. Unfortunately if you want that profession back later you will start from 1 and not the level you attained before dropping it.

Ok whilst i agree with the statment that Alchemy is a must for rogues, (haven't played one but have read the class details etc), I personally find Alchemy to be a great addition to my Druid. Especially now that I am starting to get higher in my Alchemy skill.
Yes Alchemy gives you mana potions and health potions but personally the extra buffs that it does give are great I mean who wouldn't take an extra 200 armour for 60mins???? On top of MOTW!
Troll blood potion restoring health every 3secs, stamaina potions etc etc and it is sooooo easy to level up just wandering around collecting herbs wherever you go, I mean can anything be easier :happy53:

Well, as a druid i started off with skin/LW, later i found LW to be useless because i dont get to wear stuff i make when i get better stuff (MUCH BETTER) from quests rewards.
Than i dropped LW and took tailor, i heard tailors can make this cloth thingy and it has 24hr cooldown per day and sells for around 10g?
Yes and skinning do makes some really good money. A stack of medium leather sells for around 25s to 45s whilst a stack of heavy leather sell for around 85s. For my server at least :whistle:

I started with skinning and enchanting (bad combo but it was my first time). I got my enchanting to some 150 then I droped it cause I wasnt make any money. Hell, a few times I was going from person to person trying to GIVE an enchant for free!
I got herbalisam instead. In a few days I had it at 220 and it was quite lucrative. 10 swiftthistle sells for 1,5 gold easy. Silverleaf is 20s per stack and the higher the herb the more gold you get.
So there I was selling the herbs and sending the skins to the hunter who had skining and leatherworking. And you know what? Leatherworking progress sucked! All the leather from 2 characters (both over 200 skining) and I was just making 170 skill. And the money from leatherworking? You must be joking. Maybe skinning is better when you group (I like to solo). So I had my druid drop skinning (had the hunter keep them) and went Alchemy. And thats pretty nice.
So here you go. I tried Alchemy, Enchanting, Herbalisam, Leatherworking and Skinning (and Tailoring with my Warlock) so I think that I can state that Herb/Alchemy is the best. Thought at first I would start with herbalisam and skinning (just for the money).
