Skinning in WoW Forever
Skinners take leather and hides from the beasts they kill. You fight plenty of beasts while questing anyway, so skinning costs you almost no extra time, and Leatherworkers need a lot of leather.
Good first profession? Yes. You skin the beasts you kill anyway, and leather sells well.
How it works in Classic.
What it gathers
- Leather and hides
- Skinned from beasts you’ve killed. Leatherworkers turn them into armor.
- Better leather as you go
- Higher skill lets you skin the beasts in higher-level zones.
