Why choose Cooking in WoW Fresh Classic?

Cooking in WoW Classic is an excellent profession for those who want to provide valuable buffs for themselves and their allies and those looking to make gold. It allows you to prepare food that enhances stats, boosts health, and offers various buffs. 

Cooking can be paired with Fishing for even more significant benefits, especially if you want to maximize efficiency. All the reagents you get from Fishing will save you a lot of gold. Besides, Cooking will allow you to sell your fish reagents at better prices or utilize them in food. For example, you can fish for winter squid and then transform it into grilled squid by cooking it! Skinning is also useful, as you most likely will hunt for meat at some point leveling Cooking.

And the primary benefactor of this profession is that it doesn’t take up your primary profession slot. You can level up in Cooking in any profession you like. This all makes Cooking a significant boost to your character overall.
