3 Man Farmteam

[Tin]

You probably need more than 1 team if you wanna do it effective.

Cloth farming = first profession need to be tailor for ekstra cloth
- if druid then second profession need to be eng for loot-a-rang. They have big range and 360° spell
- if hunters you have fetch and second profession is a free pick, (1 can be worgen with skinning)

So 2 druids and 1 hunter can work or just go 3 hunters.

Eksample:

I have a druid only to farm Dreamleaf out side of Darkheart Tricket in Val'sharah (killing farm). When the zone is crowded I run Darkheart Tricket.
Part 1 - is very good for skinning - Stonehide Leather - to use in shuffle
Part 2 - Is Dreamleaf.

So the best pick for me, is herb/skinning for that farm/dungeon - a druid for run speed and dreamwalk fast out and resert. and race worgen for fast skinning speed.

Wow not playing much since WoTLK leaves me kinda lost in the conversation (I looked up what I could & now understand fetch and Engineering loot-a-rang and cloth scavenging but still feel noobish).

Q1): Is ekstra & eksample just a play on swapping X to K for some reason or are those new WoW terms or urban dictionary terms or something?

Would appreciate profession recommendations for a 5box team focused on running and maximizing gold from ShadowLands dungeons. Typically I want on my 5box team professions that help them get stuff in dungeons &/or complete dungeons (like Sappers/Bombs in Vanilla/classic to help DPS) & think of those profs as "gathering related" profs. Generally I don't do "crafting related" profs on my 5box team unless there is significant crafted gear or something from those professions that helps them in dungeons... If I do any crafting related profs I generally do those on alts that I dedicate to crafting instead...

My current thoughts are that I want to at least include the following "gathering related" profs on my dungeon focused 5box team to get the most out of running the dungeons:

-If Horde go Zandalari Troll on which characters you can for extra gold from killing mobs;
-1 with Enchanting (for disenchanting Bind on Pickup stuff);
-1 with Herbalism (on Tauren if possible for speed);
-1 with Mining (on Highmountain Tauren if possible for speed);
-1 with Skinning (on Worgen if possible for speed);
-1 with Tailoring (for Cloth Scavenging);
-1 with Engineering (for blowing locks since I have no rogue in the party (if that is still a thing));
-remaining slots with Engineering (otherwise for helping complete hard bosses etc with extra AoE damage, rezzing or other utility if there are no better proficiencies for speed/gold in dungeons);

Q2): Are those all still good "gathering related" professions to include when running dungeons or should I drop any?

Q3): Is Tailoring the only "scavenging type" profession that is out there or should I include something else in the above?

Q4): Are there any other "gathering related" professions that I am missing or should include (I don't want to miss any nodes/etc that I can get in dungeons)?

I plan to have a Druid main (initially Resto focused) to both Raid and PVP with and otherwise the members of my 5box are there to feed my Druid main gear and gold... For my 5box I plan to run the following semi stealth capable party and generally drive from the Tank (though sometimes from the healer) with my professions distributed something like:

1 Main Druid Healer (Night Elf?) : What ever profs are best for raiding/PVP?;
2 Druid Tank (Worgen?): 5box Skinning?/Engineering?;
3 BM Hunter (Night Elf): 5box Herbalism?/Engineering?;
4 BM Hunter (Night Elf): 5box Mining?/Engineering?;
5 BM Hunter (Night Elf): 5box disEnchanting?/Tailoring(scavenging)?;

Q5): Any changes I should consider to the above to increase gold from instances?

Would also appreciate recommendations on a 5box of crafting alts to level up on the same 5 accounts to maximize gains from the resources gathered from the above team via passive crafting cooldowns or what not (& otherwise I plan to sell the rest of the mats). Don't necessarily care which classes they are (basically whatever 5box team is easiest to level) except that I would like at least one mage included for free food water...

Q6): With the above in mind what additional 5box team that is easy to level would you do for crafting (plus free food/water)? Without other input I was thinking 2Mages+2Warlocks+Priest for fairly easy leveling and the ability for free food/water/ports/summons for full party.

Q7): What 2 professions would you put on each of the additional 5box characters to maximize passive or crafting income?

Edit: I liked the Miro link above and found this portion of the Miro link pretty compelling if you wanted to have at least one of every crafting profession with only 5 alts:

I am not 100% that I want to have every profession as instead I typically do just passive crafting cooldowns on alts but it may be a good idea to have at least "one of everything" (although in the above link the recommendation is to actually have 2 alchemists and 2 engineers)... If no better input I guess I could follow this on my alts though I could likely do it in 3 alts by skipping getting tailoring, enchanting, and the 2 engineering as I have them on my dungeon team...
