Herbing and Mining Together or Separated

Hey Guys,

i wanted to ask for your experience:
Is it better to harvest both together or only 1? (when using bot)

 

Im also wondering this - currently I have one Miner one Gatherer, two accounts and run them at the same time with mammoth bags n stuff - good idea?

 

One miner/engi for clouds, and one herber, same route, mega win.

 

At one point, I was running herbing and mining at the same time.

Currently, I've changed and I'm running either herbing or mining separately with the appropriate herb/mining bags-depending on what I'm running low on.

I'm leveling another toon at the moment and the plan is to run one of them herbing and the other mining. After that, possibly going to run a 3rd skinning bot just for the variety.

 

whats a cloud btw?

 

Little red, white, yellow floaty thing you see around northrend while you're herbing and such . They give crystallized fire, etc. Still not many people that could farm tbh so, you can often pick up a hefty amount of eternal fires and shadows which alwaysssss sell.

 

and as an engineer u can loot even more out of them right?

 

Only engineers can loot them. . I think you only need 305 or 10 engineering and to do a short 5 minute collection quest.

 

and is it really worth it?

 

The one thing I'm always short on to make titansteel bars is eternal fire. I'm curious myself as to whether the gather rate is decent enough to make it worth sticking on one of my bots.

Thanks!

 

I have mine and Herbing on 3 Farmchars. I Farm separated. Some days only ore?s and some days only herbs.

Both farming together isnt good for me

Druid with both mining and herbalism. I never do both at once, one or the other

 

But I am earning 6k aday with 1 char herbing and mining both together

 

Not to be a dick but why did you make this thread then? Especially with that title....

 

I was just interested

 

I currently have seperate toons for each, but only because I am too lazy to drop/relearn professions.

 

I would relearn them, it is worth the more gold u make afterwards

 

why keep them seperate?

 

No, because I wanted to see other people's interests and it probably answers people's questions for more than just me
