Best Professions for Hunter in WoW Classic
Hunters get the most out of professions of any class. The best combo is Engineering + Mining.
◆Engineering is a hunter must-have
- Scopes (Deadly/Sniper) raise ranged weapon damage — a direct DPS gain.
- Grenades and Sapper add control and burst for PvP and kiting.
- Engineering trinkets and rocket boots add mobility.
Mining supplies the ore.
◆Alternative: Leatherworking + Skinning
Leatherworking + Skinning unlocks the Devilsaur Set, a top pre-raid physical DPS set, plus agility leather. Skinning fits a hunter who kills many beasts.
