Professions

Choosing professions for a Hunter in WoW Forever mainly depends on your goals: crafting equipment, preparing consumables, using utility items, or earning gold.

All three specializations, Beast Mastery, Marksmanship, and Survival, can benefit from these activities. No profession is mandatory for playing a Hunter.

Leatherworking and Skinning

Leatherworking allows players to craft certain pieces of leather equipment and various items, depending on the available recipes.

Skinning provides materials used in many Leatherworking recipes.

This combination suits players who want to gather some of their own materials and craft equipment.

Engineering and Mining

Engineering allows players to craft various utility items and devices.

Mining provides some of the raw materials required for this profession.

This combination may appeal to players who enjoy technical items and the additional options they provide.

Alchemy and Herbalism

Alchemy allows players to prepare potions and other consumables from gathered ingredients.

Herbalism helps supply the plants needed for these preparations.

This combination suits players who want to produce their own consumables instead of purchasing them.

Gathering professions

Combining two gathering professions, such as Skinning and Herbalism, allows players to collect resources while leveling.

These materials can be saved for later use or sold to earn gold.

The choice of gathering professions depends on the resources you want to obtain and your preferred activities.

Which professions should you choose for each specialization?

Beast Mastery

Beast Mastery relies on attacks from both the Hunter and their pet. Profession choices can therefore remain focused on the character's general needs.

Leatherworking suits players interested in crafting equipment, Engineering those who want utility items, and Alchemy those who prefer preparing consumables.

Gathering professions are also useful for collecting materials and earning gold.

Marksmanship

Marksmanship emphasizes the Hunter's ranged attacks. No particular profession is required for this playstyle.

Leatherworking may appeal to players who want to craft equipment, while Engineering and Alchemy serve utility and preparation goals.

Two gathering professions can also suit players who prioritize collecting and selling resources.

Survival

Survival places greater emphasis on close-range combat. However, profession choices still depend on the same general goals as the other specializations.

Leatherworking can be selected for crafting equipment, Engineering for producing utility items, and Alchemy for preparing consumables.

Gathering professions offer another way to obtain materials and earn gold.

Which professions should you choose?

There is no mandatory profession combination for Hunters.

Leatherworking and Skinning suit players who want to craft equipment. Engineering and Mining allow players to produce utility items. Alchemy and Herbalism help with preparing consumables.

Finally, two gathering professions can be a straightforward way to collect resources while leveling.

The best choice depends on your preferences, needs, and playstyle.
