how many professions can i have in wow tbc

In WoW TBC, each character can have up to 2 primary professions and all 3 secondary professions. That means you can learn a total of 5 professions on one character if you count secondary ones too.

Breakdown

• Primary professions: 2 max.
• Secondary professions: 3 total, and there’s no limit to how many of those you can have.

• Secondary professions in TBC: Cooking, Fishing, and First Aid.

Example

A common setup is:

• Mining + Engineering
• Cooking + Fishing + First Aid

That would give you 5 professions total on one character.

Quick note

If you meant only the main crafting/gathering skills, the answer is 2. If you meant everything available to learn, it’s 5.

TL;DR: In WoW TBC, you can have 2 primary professions and 3 secondary professions , for 5 total.
