I have troubles, can you help me ? Right now both are around 170, and I was wondering when I will be able to start making some gold off these professions. I need the gold because im a rogue and rogues are very gear dependant, and i need my mounts too. So if these arent profitable any time soon, which do you think I can pick up and lvl without it being a huge pain? I dont have my mount yet so im thinking any gathering profession would be a pain but for mining couldnt i just smelt? But then when does mining get really profitable? I heard herb is good once you hit about 60 and up, so should i just go herb and stick with it? And Im not sure which one to drop, eng or ench? Eng, i think i will only use the trinkets and goggles, but enchanting, if i could make gold in wow, i would totally level it up and enchant my own stuff.

Thanks for the answers which I received. "If you're looking to make gold, unfortunately enchanting is not the way to go.Mining makes good gold if you sell the ore and is probably your best bet for a gathering profession. Also I believe it will work alongside your engineering. Skinning makes good gold as well as herbs, but mining is probably the best earner for you pre outland." "I've really found enchanting an excellent way to make gold.My strategy is to search the AH for armor/weapons, disenchant, and sell the raw goods at the AH. There's no deposit fee, so I can put them at the price I've researched, until they sell.My normal rule of thumb is this..."

"For disenchanting items, I will only by armor/weapons of level 25 and below at a price equal to or below their level (i.e. a level 14 axe will only be purchased by me for 14s or less). With this strategy I generally will bid on A LOT of items all at once. It costs a few gold, but selling the raw materials at the right time will make you a lot of profit. The best wow gold so far is from disenchanting items between level 35-50. But you have to be careful because this can be pricey. I have a general rule of thumb of not spending more than 1.30g on any item between these levels.The raw materials on these go for an excellent price on my server."

I know how can I do now? How about you? Thanks for all opinions. I will come to farm as much gold as I can, if you need my gold, I will give my free wow gold to you.
