I'm in a similar boat to the OP, and was wondering if I should dump BS. I'm only at 225 BS, and right now the only thing I use it for is to send things to my alt (a warrior with Enchanting). I'm just having a hard time justifying the profession, as I don't see any real benefit as I level up. I'm a lvl 61 Holy Pally, and the Outland drops/quest rewards just seem better.
I was actually thinking of switching to JC so that I can make the gems needed for sockets. Is that worth it?
Oh, my other prof is mining.
JC is good money except it still requires an investment of several thousand gold to lvl and purchase the "good" recipes so you can have something to sell. They did however add some cool JC only items/gems to the game which are rather nifty but just keep in mind it is expensive to level and requires considerable investment to profit with it.
Currently I have the following
engineer/miner (used to be blacksmith, but is nearly useless for a hunter except for the T3 master axesmith or w/e)
alchemist/herbs (rogue, easy to pick stuff, made mad profits with herbalism and alchemy, xmute mastery)
enchanter/skinner (used to be enchanter/tailor to lvl enchanting)
tailor/skinner (will be tailor/enchanter eventually for ring enchants)
engineer/tailor (twink mage, so reasons should be obvious)
Now obviously engineering is not really a thing for profit. What I use for profit are herbs, skinning, alchemy and sometimes mining(keep most of what I get to make stuff). Leveling tailoring I send items to enchanter to DE (enchanter is 285, tailor is 353) then keep the mats (I will be dropping skinning on my druid for enchanting later on)
