There are many different professions in the game, but some are more useful than others in The War Within expansion. Fun and profitable (the best combination), here are some of the best professions that can be used in Khaz Algar.
10. Mining
Mining is one of the best professions to use in the early stages of the game. It grants experience when used, meaning that every piece of mined ore brings the character closer to reaching the maximum level. Mining is one of the best options to add when leveling up a new character, as it generates experience almost automatically once the ores are extracted.
But its usefulness is not limited to that, as mined ores are used in many important recipes, making it valuable in the auction house. While it may not be the biggest source of gold, mining is still a classic and useful option for a profession in the game.
9. Herbalism
Herbalism is another profession that grants experience for leveling up when used. This is a strong boost, as some players have used herbalism to level up their characters entirely. But herbalism is not just about gathering flowers. The herbs collected from plant clusters play an important role in alchemy and cooking recipes, making herbalism a foundation of the open market.
Although it may not yield huge profits like some common activities, herbalism remains one of the most stable investments in the gold market. It is also enjoyable – who doesn’t like spending time outdoors collecting plants? Herbalism is a great choice for anyone looking for extra currency and experience.
8. Fishing

If there is a more relaxing profession in World of Warcraft, fishing definitely takes that title. Fishing is one of the ways that induce calmness to spend some time in the game – and can be profitable too. All you have to do is visit the nearest fishing trainer and start. Fishing is very easy – just cast your rod and wait.
When the bobber moves, it means a fish is hooked on the line. Click the bobber, and what’s caught on the rod will be pulled in. New fish can be found in The War Within expansion, and many of them are needed in recipes, so start fishing!
7. Cooking
Everyone, from the strongest tanks to the best healers, needs to eat. A well-cooked meal can make a big difference in a challenging raid, so it’s best to level up cooking early and frequently. Cooking, which can be learned by any character without the need to occupy a profession slot, allows characters to cook a variety of delicious and nutritious meals.
These meals provide additional buffs to skills, making some prepared foods highly valued in the auction house. The War Within expansion added many new recipes to learn, so start cooking in Khaz Algar.
6. Tailoring
If your character wears fabric armor, then tailoring is the perfect choice for them. Tailoring can craft a variety of items, but the primary focus of this profession is on fabric armors. Mages, warlocks, and priests can make their own sets of tailored armor, and those who do not use fabric armors can make them to sell in the auction house.
With the addition of Warbands in The War Within expansion, tailoring can be an excellent way to obtain armor for side characters using fabric armor. Additionally, tailoring can make bags, and everyone loves bags. Put the sword aside and start tailoring today!
5. Jewelcrafting
You can believe that players still adorn themselves with gems in The War Within expansion, as jewelcrafting remains one of the most popular professional choices. And it’s not just for the shine! Jewelcrafters create gemstones (as expected), as well as necklaces and enchantments used to enhance players’ power.
Make sure to choose mining to increase your gold income, so you don’t have to spend a fortune on auction house ores. All you have to do is roam and dig into everything in your path, and soon you will have a large amount of ores to turn into beautiful gems. They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but gems are Warcraft players’ best friend through the jewelcrafting profession.
4. Leatherworking
Leather has always been wonderful, or at least that’s what we’ve heard. In any case, leather is always in demand in World of Warcraft, making Leatherworking a very popular profession. This profession provides armors for classes like Rogues, Druids, Shamans, and Monks. They can also make cloaks used by all types of characters in the game.
This large number of potential clients means that leatherworkers will always have a source of profit in one way or another. It may not be luxurious, but everyone needs a cloak and armor. Make sure to choose Skinning as a profession so you can gather materials from the characters you defeat along the way.
3. Blacksmithing
Death knights, paladins, and warriors, no need to worry – blacksmithing is still present in The War Within, making them look more stylish than ever. Blacksmithing involves creating various metal pieces, especially chain and plate armors for the classes that wear them. They can also make complex and powerful weapons, some of which are among the best.
But the real strength of blacksmithing comes from the raw materials they can make for classes like enchanters. Without skilled blacksmiths, these classes will be without the necessary resources. The War Within focuses heavily on dwarves, so return to your dwarven roots and pick up the hammer.
2. Alchemy
Who doesn’t like the idea of brewing a potion or two? For those who want to prepare something more than just beer, alchemy will be the perfect profession to choose in The War Within. Alchemy is one of those professions that will always be in use, as alchemists can create flasks, potions, and oils sought after by players looking to maximize damage and healing to the fullest extent.
Alchemists primarily rely on herbs, so it’s good to combine alchemy and Herbalism while leveling up the alchemy skill. Khaz Algar has many hidden places, and plenty of hidden plants, so make sure to harvest them and turn them into liquid gold through alchemy.
1. Enchanting
Enchanting is one of the best professions available in World of Warcraft, all thanks to what this profession produces. Enchanting produces enchantments used on various types of armors. These enchantments provide various stat boosts to armors, and are essential for those tackling advanced content like Mythic+ or raids.
In some cases, a good enchantment can be the difference between victory and failure, meaning that many people are willing to pay hefty amounts for them. Entering the profession of enchanting is guaranteed profit, but it may be challenging due to the time and gold required. However, for those willing to put in the effort, enchanting is still an investment worth the hassle.
