Cooking really only saw benefits for raiding but the rest of cooking practically was useless, unless you…

    Enchanting traditionally has been one of the hardest and most costly professions to level. One of the most popular things to do is combine tailoring with enchanting, thus allowing you to disenchant the items you create through tailoring with your enchanting skills.
