Professions

Choosing professions for a Paladin in Classic Era depends mostly on your goals: preparing consumables, crafting gear or making gold.

Professions support your character's progression, but they do not replace your gear, talent and gameplay choices.

Blacksmithing and Mining

Mining lets you gather ore, and Blacksmithing lets you craft weapons and armor pieces.

Alchemy and Herbalism

Herbalism lets you gather herbs, and Alchemy is used to make potions and elixirs. This combination helps you prepare your own consumables, especially mana potions.

Engineering and Mining

Engineering crafts items you can use in combat, in PvE as in PvP, and Mining provides part of its materials.

Cooking, Fishing and First Aid

Cooking and Fishing provide useful food, and First Aid lets you make bandages, without replacing the Paladin's healing spells.

Which professions suit your specialization?

Holy

The Alchemy + Herbalism combination helps you prepare mana potions, which are useful in long fights.

Protection

The Blacksmithing + Mining combination lets you craft weapons and armor pieces, and Alchemy provides the mana potions a tank needs.

Retribution

The Blacksmithing + Mining combination lets you craft weapons, and Engineering brings items that are useful in combat.

Key takeaway

Making gold matters in Classic Era: also choose your professions based on what they can earn you.
