Which profession brings in the most gold in your opinion? I have a mining/herb on one toon. My other toon has BS and one open profession. I'm loaded with mats from gatherbuddy2, so I need to hurry up and chose one.
 
I have one char with mine/herb another with maxed Alch and another with maxed JC. I make almost all my money off of Alchemy simply because its quick and simple. I send all my herbs/other needed mats to my alchemist, make flasks and post. With JC i have to prospect/make my disenchantables then either sell or make scrolls/Sell raw gems or spend time doing dailies to get the valuable cuts for them. Alchemy seems like less work to me and i've made around 100k from casual alchemy.
 
all 3 can reap a steady amount of gold. It would depend of what you like to do, and which market would be best to get in to on your server.

Example being... JC is dead on my server. Mine was started with BC, so all the characters rolled new toons and JC, so it's always been over run with JC.

and there are also a fair amount of scribes as well, so unless I get in a specific niche with things like Glyphs, Fortune cards, or The darkmoon cards, I have a hard time moving product fast enough for me.

But, my server has several large Raiding Guilds, so I can sell Flasks like Crazy! and the Vial of Sands Mount sells really well too! gotta be Arch for that though.
 
Think I'm gonna go with alchemy. Inscription seems boring and JC seems like too much work. Thanks for your inputs guys.
 
Inscription is your best bet, Fortune cards are going crazy atmo, just herb uldum at night and make about 300-500 fortune cards from that = 3 to 6k! :D You dont even have to make em if you have proffesion buddy.
 
It will be server specific. Most people on my server are too dumb to realize that the finished product should cost more than the raw materials to make it. In most cases, the raw herbs will net me more money than the potion/flask I create from them, so just harvesting herbs is more profitable than being an alchemist. Find out what raw materials and finished products are selling for on your server and pick the profession that you find nets you the biggest profit margin.

jw do you mean fortune cards or dark moon?
 
I just make Mysterious Fortune cards cause you can get the pattern at 450 scribe level, I make about 200 cards a night, and at 10g each isnt bad. plus while I'm on my main and when I'm making the pigments/ink I can spam trade for WTS glyphs. I dont play too much so this is a nice easy 99% bot method that works for me. (ps. I saw a guy yesterday who got the 5000g card!!! He only bought 20 off me.)
 
For mining, is it better to sell them as ore, or should I smelt em into bars? I heard people vendor ores instead sell in AH, why?
