Dude this quality video is amazing the amount of passion you put in these videos 👍👍

By far the best WoW channel i've seen so far, your eloquence is the key. Cheers and gl for everything!

thanks for putting in the time to make this video. I am just amazed at the amount of relevant information here.

Top notch and informative video! Thank you so much for taking your time making this! :) I've had a hard time choosing, but it's now clear to me. Cheers!

Great breakdown. Normally I skip to the parts I want, but I genuinely listed to this in it's entirety.

Kelani this is A+ content. AGAIN you are already the best thing about this expansion.

Thank you, Kelani. I love your voice, so I'm glad to have another video from you!

idk how someone can make such a detailed guide 30 minutes long 👏🙌

This exceptionally fantastic video is beyond my overall comprehension, much tougher than my PhD lectures as such. But all I could understand that I will be doing gathering only

Best video for info on professions. Thanks mate

thank you! really cool and informative video, you've done a great job I'm going to take leatherworking with skinning for sure

Just started WoW again after 3 years hiatus. Thanks for the informative video.

Excellent overview, will have a lot to play with in dragonflight. Gems always sell. Made a lot gold from jewlcrafting. Thank you for nfo

This guide actually makes sense :)

Really, really well done!! Keep up the great work!!!

Mining and Herbalism are the way to go for me because you can easily do both while doing open world stuff.

Truly appreciate the effort you place into your informative WoW videos! Thank you 🙏🏾

I'm excited for professions. Ive never been a hardcore profs person either and this is quite the prof overhaul. Theres gonna be so much time to grind into the start for sure. I'm trying to prioritize and figure out which classes I want to play first and I'm having a difficult time deciding which toons will have which professions. I REALLY wanna dive into profs. I'm sorta prioritizing my gatherers at the start. I'm somewhat surprised theyve managed to make gatherer profs unique and fun as well but I want gatherers first so I can mostly focus on exploring/leveling my alts but then I'm leveling the quality of my mats 1st as well then when I get my crafters it'll be easier to access my higher quality mats. I just need to figure out what's going on who. This xpac looking soooo good tho :)

Wow, great info. This video was great. Thank you for the work you put into it. Subscribed.

I cant even imagine how lonng this video takes to make.. Great content.

Thanks for the video!

Fantastic video!

WoW. Excellent video. BEST info on KZfaq for WoW, by far.

Nice video! It should be noted that Inscription has unique, soulbound crafts called "DraconicTreatises" for each profession, which allows you to buy crafting/specialization knowledge via Work Orders!

Excellent video

Dragonflight is gonna be the most alt-friendly expansion since a long time. This will mean crafted gear is gonna be a hot seller.

If this ain't worth a sub, I don't know what is. Amazing job really

Honestly, this is the first time I see myself investing long term in a crafting profession, I've always been the kind of guy that survives by just mining and herbing what I can find, but like the possibility to get such great gear and items in the end game is such a treat

Watched it twice! Great job. I have a spreadsheet going for all my toons and their respective professions

Nice video, thank you! I really hope Blizzard has a better system to prevent gathering bots and multiboxers in DF then in SL.

very good summary

best piece u can craft in all this expansion is the neck from jewlcrafting that give u 450 of the secondary stat u have as gem in the neck! that is a must for every one as neck piece! so that would be around 250k gold each for sure

Herb and alch must be on top, the flasks and potions in df is insane!

This seems like the best time sink for a solo player. It's confusing af, but I can tell it's gonna be a great version of something like AP. A long term investment, but instead of something that offers a small boost to your toon it offers a small boost to anyone you want.

What an amazing video! Thanks, Kelani! One question regarding crafting orders, maybe I've missed that information in any of the videos: Can we only create crafting orders for the new Dragonflight recipes, or is it possible to create them for any recipe a profession is able to craft? e.g. someone would want a transmog piece from an earlier expansion - is that going to work with crafting orders as well?

I plan to absolutely go ham on professions. Will eventually have enough alts to work on all of them but I plan on starting the expansion with my Evoker main w/skinning and leatherworking, a Mage w/herbalism and inscription and a Paladin w/mining and Jewelcrafting. Once those start slowing down as they inevitably will, I'll start working on an enchanter/alchemist alt since they should be stable goldmakers throughout the expansion.

I was really hoping that zappthrottle thing was going to be engineers only. I remember gas harvesting in TBC making lots of gold.

Thanks!

might actually do leather and skinning this time.. was always alchemy and engi

Always a beautiful piece of work! But with all this grinding, worries me for alt playing tbh. I think this might be why I'm playing wrath classic, your prof adds to your player power, along with hating having to farm m+ to stay relevant in raids, but thats a whole other issue, lol

I tend to level up as tailor, skinner so I can make bags and sell the skin. I then switch one of them to enchanting and disenchant all my levelling gear I’ve accumulated to get a lot of enchanting mats. I then choose what’s best/needed on the server.

I haven't messed around with Professions since WoD. I used to be big into Herbing and Alchemy. During Cata, I made a lot of gold with this combo. It's also nice to have invisibility potions or speed potions Ect.. I'm debating whether I want to pick those up again, or go for skinning and leatherworking.

...and the timestamps in the info!!

Managed to hit 100 skinning while only getting TWO of the items that give skinning specialization points

Definitely going evoker for min/herb. DH will be skinning/lw and warrior will be BS/jc

Didn't you post a small spreadsheet of all the profession related gear? I can't seem to find it in the video.

Oh thank GOD they included a new Wyrmhole Generator I was afraid they'd forget that gem of a device! It and other abilities are why all of my characters are engineers! Level 1 is the only thing required for most teleportation devices but I love using tinkers on all my characters it makes for way better gameplay particular when dealing with movement speeds, I put rocketboots on my belt as one of my speed boosters! It's awesome! Not to mention the goblin glider tinker for the cloak!

After 25 profession skill where do I go to unlock these specializations in Beta?

I took a break after S03 of SL, and have been dragged back into WoW for Dragonflight. As such I reupped my sub this week. I'm wading around all this new content trying to dig through the massive amount of stuff. I've watched quite a few videos from people who I kind of recognize, but still come out confused. I clicked on Kelani because I was like "that sounds familiar" and the SECOND he started talking I was like "oh yeah, I'm in the right place"

Really looking forward to the new system. question: My nitro boots will still work on belt gear in dragonflight?

So my main is dual crafting (blacksmithing/enchanting). I've been thinking about dropping enchanting to pick up mining for Dragonflight. Does this seem like the way to go?

Wow I think that was almost in the area of TMI. almost sounds like professions are a endgame in itself.

What profession do you think will go well for my mage ? I’m a Draenei so I thought about jewel crafting but I’m not sure

Looking professions from the perspective of gold making is interesting and understandable but i am wondering if i am not interested in gold making should I bother to engage with the system and actually craft some long lasting items or they will quickly be replaced by mythic bosses and high end m+/weekly vault?? Or should i just stick to herb/alchemy to gather a herb here and there and save a lot of gold on pots? Blacksmith looking dope tho i would love to craft something longterm relevant myself!

do gathering professions work hand in hand with working professions i.e. herbalism gives buffs to alchemy or is better that i have an alt for mining and herbs and then have my main with engineering and alchemy

is it possible to max out profession in a way that you can craft all end gear for example in leatherworking leather and have all pieces unlocked/craftable?

I think people are being overly optimistic about how profitable professions are going to be. The very first people to get things will make millions but casuals aren't going to be making much at all. Especially since there doesn't seem to be a mission table type source of infinite gold to supply those millions in terms of raw gold.

Is there new movement speed enhancement for gear? Like a new pure air sail?

I was looking for info on fishing and cooking… are you going to put those in a different video?

I'm stubborn, and have stuck to engineering since forever. Over the first few weeks of the expansion, I made a little over 2 mil profit (not revenue!) from it. This was from being among the first to make the highest quality cogwheels (missive equivalent for goggles) and the reagent Arclight Capacitor. Most of my profit actually came from making R3 capacitors via inspiration procs, and recouping costs by selling the non-inspired R2 ones. Sadly, the market has long-since died out. Something strictly necessary to do this was getting the Khazgorite Fisherfriend recipe, as it's pretty much the only craft that takes you to max level while also not needing you to invest points in a tree (like bombs).

Gathering seems to be the way to go, why bother leveling a "harder" profession when I could just gather my own top tier mats and commission what I need from someone who leveled the other professions.... Great video as always, very informative!

My main has herbalism and Alchemy, and I want to change Herbalism for Inscription, using my druid alt as a farmer for herb and mining. What do you think?

Is the time lost vendor for the korraks revenge BG only selling ilvl 164 gear for everyone or is it just me? I thought it was supposed to be like 272 ilvl

Can I have have two gathering professions say blacksmithing and herbalism ? Is it wise to do for a super casual player like me just to earn gold in the game

Is there any daily or weekly crafts on any profession like the old school alchemy Mooncloth that was on a 4 days cooldown? My army of alts are looking for the best profession for passive gold :P

The biggest fear I have of every expansion, once patch x.1 hits on any expansion, those recipes become irrelevant and we're stuck in the same grind as before. I love the revamp but hope that Blizzard continues the trend of making more elite recipes after x.1 hits.

WOW Mine while mounted means we no longer have to be Druid just to keep up with the min-maxers? :P That's bloody huge!!!!! Wish it were applicable to non-Dragonflight mining zones too

so for hunters best choice would be lw/skinning?

Glad they made crafted gear relevant.

I think they should give the option for the crafter to give all or some of the mats for creating orders for a higher commission

I'm really just looking forward to doing more fishing and have that rank up to maximum in the new expansion. Fishing is just the best profession.

For DF, an Evoker will be my first 60 followed by my Ven DH. For my Evoker I'm thinking Herbalism and Inscirption for the missives. Having easy access to missives right out the gate sound good for alts. My DH will most likely be Lw and skinning since I tend to like leather and Mail classes.

How does the racials that affcets professions will work?

What's happening wit the secondary profession, first aid, archaeology and fishing? have they been deleted or something because no ones talking about them...

I'm so glad they scaled up the item level cap for crafted gear. One of the things that bothered me in Shadowlands is that there was attrition due to player power gaps as time went on. If you weren't doing raiding/pvp/mythic+, then you were eventually bullied out of war mode, and the barrier to getting into raiding/pvp/mythic+ would increase because players only wanted to recruit those who were already a high ilvl. If you fell behind, you stayed behind and there were no options to improve item level or skill because you couldn't get into the only content that offered it. (unless you bought a boost, but that is another issue.) There was circular logic in that if you wanted to do harder content, you needed better gear, but the only way to get better gear was to do harder content. Having these new choices is hopefully going to resolve that issue, and less players are going to feel stuck or pushed out. There is also the point that world content players exist, and it didn't seem fair that these players are capped at a lower item level. World content players value completion and reaching a maximum is part of that. However, the lower ilvl caps for a world content player could be reached in a single month, and then there was nothing left to do to progress further. I don't believe anyone would disagree that the more difficult content should have a higher reward, but gear ilvl caps is a weird choice because it leads to attrition and player dissatisfaction. Which also means less subs and revenue. This change is going to give world content players a plethora of things to do, and even to help contribute to the other types of players in their preferred content.

Are there changes to Cooking/Fishing/Archeology too??

Anything bout the secondary proffs Mr Kelani?

Quite honestly, as a casual player for over the last 6 years I have come to terms with the idea that I wont be wealthy in WoW. I earn my money by doing quests and the levelling process gives me a boost of income thay I spend during the expansion. I usually use WoW money for buying one of other cheap mounts, fly masters and all of that but I don't think money is that important anymore for a casual player. unless you want to buy the tundra Mammoth (which, to me honest, is not expensive anymore) or one of those obsenely pricey mounts that the add from time to time. For example, they other day my alts made a Pool and I was able to afford the Tome to start of the green fire quest for my warlock, Which was 44k at the auction house. That is being wealthy for me hahaha, an I have never, ever leveled a profession in WoW.

you can still go both mining & herbalism right

Are there any enchanter-only enchants?

Im going for inscription and LW

As a Huntard, I'll always start off with skinning and leatherworking to craft that sweet mail gear and worry about gold making or item crafting later on in the expac.

im bad at crafting professions. im gonna stick to mastering gathering to get juicy mats to sell. i also hope they update archeology since drag isles is a historical place in wow

gathering sounds so much better

It seems a lot like New World in places. Work orders, better materials make better item quality etc.

Does mining while mounting also apply to druid in shapeshift?

Based on previous expansions, it seems that tailoring and skinning seems to be the lowest effort professions since you naturally loot lots of cloth materials from enemies you'll be killing anyway, and skinning because you can just skin the beast enemies that you would already be killing anyway.

found that skinning and enchanting are nice goldmakers. (disenchanting and selling the stuff)

This is the first time in 18 years that i will have 5 alts with maxed professions

If I were to focus into weapon smithing, do you think it'd be more profitable to do 1 handers or 2 handers? Curious about what pieces of armor will be most in demand as well

I know this is a 1 month old video but 380+ gear is already attainable just from endgame quests and elite rares/world bosses. I would focus more on stuff like enchanting jewel crafting and alchemy for gold making where it will always stay relevant

Whats the best professions to the hunter?

You forget the Fishing. When i look at it this expansion as goldmaker it will be extremly proffitable (if not changed from beta) this expansion, mostly start.

I usually don't use a gathering profession on my main, always went with JC/engineering combo. Do you think it's still viable doing this or it's gonna hurt my economy badly ? 🤔

I've tested the new professions on the BETA . They are pretty amazing but I kinda think they overly-complicated them. This beeing said I`m ok with beeing this complex but let's hope the gear is worth it and it's good , if it's just gear that you will easily replace in raids then it's gonna be super bad.

IMO the biggest silent money maker will be inscription. Those trinkets will be just insane gold.. trinkets are always so hard to come by at start of expansion and darkmoons never fail to deliver for at least entire season 1 not just for mains but every alt.

There is a crucial error in 13:15. Epic gear crafted is all soulbound / bind on pick up, there is no way to "charge a huge premium on the AH" by making the best equipment. The only way to make gold with equipment is by filling out crafting orders. However, public orders don´t have any minimum quality restrictions currently, so everyone can fill them (specialized or not). The only way to make extra gold as a specialised equipment crafter is too seek out /2 or discord´s or whatever and find someone who wants gear/weapons crafted with a minimum quality.

I have an army of alts to handle all of the professions. :)

What I need to know, is if you can work order your own alts? Can I run a Blacksmith and Jewelcrafter on an alt and still craft the gear for myself?
