Hunters are masters of solo leveling and can dish out great damage in raid content, too — but there’s more to just shooting arrows or guns in WoW: Forever. You’ll also need to pick up professions to aid your character and others, and to help you make money on your journey to max level. Here are the best professions to consider for your Hunter in WoW: Forever.
Best PVE professions for Hunter
Hunters have two PVE combinations that are really useful, so it really comes down to what your goals are in the game.
Skinning + Leatherworking
Skinning and Leatherworking are great for Hunters due to being able to make leveling gear along your journey to 60, as well as useful things like Armor Kits and ammo pouches. Leatherworking’s camping buff is also incredible, offering you rested XP up to 5% of a level each time you use it at a campfire.
Mining + Engineering
Alternatively, Mining and Engineering are a great option so you can make utility items like bombs and decoys to help you in battles, or quirky options like Jumper Cables for a chance to resurrect a fallen teammate. Most importantly, Engineering allows you to make your own ammo, which can save you a lot of time and money in the endgame when you need the highest tier of arrows or bullets for raiding.
Best PVP professions for Hunter
Hunters are best served by the same PVP setup as nearly every other class. Yes, the duo of professions you’re already thinking about…
Mining + Engineering
As always, Mining and Engineering is universally considered the best combination for most Hunters in PVP scenarios. From using crowd-control items like nets and the mind control caps to lock down the opposing players, to wielding mobility-based tricks like rocket boots and teleporters, Engineering turns you into a powerhouse in PVP.
