Alchemy or Inscription?

[mrmo]

Hey on my rouge I've got mining and herbalism both on 525. now on my druid (i know the druid should be the farmer) i skilled JC on 525 and now I don't know if I should take alchemy or inscription?

Inscription is VERY time consuming.. The relisting and stuff takes forever.. If u have that time, go for it, cuz you can make a ton of gold with it. However, i would go with alchemy, if you are short/medium time.

what means time consuming? i skilled JC in 2 days on 525 but i played ~4 h per day takes inscription longer?

 

[KARMAKOALA]

no, crafting the stuff, and reposting on AH, thats what takes time

 

[mrmo]

ah ok, I've done my exams and summer holidays start soon.. I'll find that time.. so you think inscription makes me more gold and makes me happier than alchemy? except for the time

Inscription takes a lot of research/books of glyph to get the good glyphs, and even then you'll spend all day posting/reposting. I have a friend that is on the glyph market, he posts stuff every 10 minutes due to how competitive the market is, it's worth it though, you can get a tooooon of gold.
Alchemy is easier, you get less return, but it's not as time/effort consuming as inscription.

Find someone with Inscription 525. Buy Cataclysm Herbs and ask him to mill them and create you blackfallow ink.
Once you've got round about 1500 inks you can trade them for the needed inks and skill 1-525 in 1,5 hour...

In my opinion Inscription is by far the easiest profession to level.

I know boniggy made a profile for alliance that levesl inscription with the use of blackfallow ink. Since they put in the ink trader it's become far less time consuming. I went from 1 to 400 in about an hour. I'm still trying to sell off glyphs of course, but that's only because i didn't do it as I went.
