WoW Herbalism Guide

Herbalism is a great gathering profession for making a lot of WoW gold. The World of Warcraft is full of many different types of herbs which can be used by Alchemists to brew powerful potions and elixirs to temporarily boost your stats or to restore your health and mana, as well as many other effects. Herbalism is a great profession to choose with alchemy so that you can supply yourself with all the materials needed for your potions. However, on it's own, you can sell the herbs in the Auction house and make a decent living for yourself.
