Am I missing something? If money's not an issue, I personally think herbalism is a very strange choice since there's no inherent advantage it gives you, other than gold from the AH or mats for herbalism. Alchemy would net you the alchemist stones, jewelcrafting would net you nice trinkets, and leatherworking would give you access to the BoP Primalstrike set along with the use of the various drums which can serve as emergency fear or boost your parties DPS or healing as needed. Unless you're hardcore PvPer or raider, that Primalstrike set will be part of your DPS set for a good long time.
Edit to avoid extending the thread: Maybe I should have said that I know herbalism is a great profession for gold, that gold is good, and that we're the most efficient herbers in the game thanks to flight form. I just thought it was kinda strange to start a thread asking for profession advice relative to a specific class and spec, emphasizing out the fact that cost/gold was not a concern, thus (I thought) giving the impression that he was looking for whatever profession had the best value to a feral druid in terms of character enhancement/improvement, and then end up picking a gathering profession that has no inherent benefits or BoPs. Forget I said anything. Herbalism rules -- Good choice!!!
