Hi all
At the moment I am a lvl 53 mage.
I have herbalsim 300 and Skinning 300. Up until now that has been great casue u always have things to sell on ah and make some money.
I want to keep herbalism beacause i want to take up Alchemy some where along the line.
The question i have is when should i drop skinning and take up alchemy. I like skinning cause of the money it makes but at some point , some of the potions i can make i can sell for a bundle from what i see of the prices on the AH and also there are quite a few that i could use myself right now :)
Should i do this at lvl 60? or 70? Does skinning make u as much money in outland as alchemy would?
When i say alchemy can make money i mean two things. Sell potions or u save money cause u can make the potions your self and not have to buy them.
You see i now get rugged leather from mobs: I can sell a stack of 20 for around 3-5g. I can sell blindweed for around 15g per stack depending on the time of week. In swamp of sorrows i can harvest 3 stacks of 20 blindweed in under 1 hour.
Dreamfoil sells for around 30g and fadeleaf for around 20g on my server.
So i dont get that much hmoney for the skins anymore but the potions i want to buy range from around 8g - 30g for a stack of 5.
Mana potions and buff potions (+spell dmg etc) look nice but some are 2 expensive to just buy all the time.
Keep skinning until 70 or go for alchemy when i hit 60? Dont wanna power level alchemy before that, I think cause most of my cash must go to my epic lvl 60 mount (still need 300g)
