I'm just starting to grind out the professions on my 4 shaman team. I've already got engineering up to 300. I choose engineering because 1 of my shamans was on my pve crew and already has it maxed out, plus goggles. So when I cloned him I wanted everyone to have the same appearence, therefore i'm planning on getting goggles for everyone.

Will the goggles be gimp in PVP?
Will Engineering bring anything to the table besides sapper charges in BGs and rocket boots in Arena? (I read the other thread on this topic but I made a new one so I can ask about other profs.)


For the 2nd profession I was leaning toward alchemy (+40% to the effect of chugging mad alch pots) because i'm ALWAYS running outta mana. Granted I just turned 70 and have 386 spell damage, 16% crit (not including the 10% from talents on lightning bolt) so i'm hoping my mana situation improves. Will I get more staying power?

I know alchemy doesn't do jack for arenas, but do any professions really help at all for Arenas?

Back to BG's, What does Leatherworking offer?

I'm guess i'm kinda looking at Engineering + [Alchemy] or [Leatherworking]

Any insights are much appreciated.
