I cant remember was there a mechanism in place that prevented a lvl 1 from maxing professions outside of getting the matts?

Example, my main has enchanting/skinning and alt has leatherworking. Can my alt level all the way to 300 with my mains mats?

you had to be a certain level to learn the next rank in a profession.

That is what I thought/ figured. Thanks!

Yup.

And you had to go to different trainers to level up your professions. Enchanters know the agony of spamming Uldaman.

You had to be level 35 to train up to 300 of a profession iirc. Was common-ish for people to level an alt to use as a cooldown battery for things like Arcanite.

iirc, lvl 5 was required for 1-75, lvl 10 for 75-150, level 20 for 150-225, and lvl 35 for 225-300
I might be wrong about journeyman and expert, though

Yes, I remeber that all to well :stuck_out_tongue:

I want a gathering prof but having tayloring as a production prot really! Helped with giving things to disenchant and not have enchanting be such a useless timesink…

One important note is that disenchanting has no minimum skill requirement. You can disenchant level 60 epics at skill level 1.

I’m going to have a tailor/skinner, I think, and my OTP (One True Professon) alchemy/herbalism. Not touching enchanting with a 10-foot pole. :rofl:

I believe you need to be 40 for the secondary profs. Cooking, fishing, and first aid.

Not in 1.12. Those can all be learned from level 5.

12

Lol. I meant to learn 300.

13

Oh OK. Duh, I should’ve figured that out. :sweat_smile:

First aid is a bit quirky in that you can use bandages that are above your skill to make by a bit (one or two bandage levels). The hand me down bandages are really nice on alts (this would also work with a guildmate giving a serious hand up).
