How Do I Unlearn a Profession in WoW Forever?
Willo
Open your Professions window with K, find the profession, and click the small red X next to its skill bar, then confirm. The X is easy to miss. You can drop primary professions, but not Cooking, First Aid or Fishing, and if you learn a profession again later, you start from scratch.

Step by step
- Press K to open the Professions window.

What can I unlearn?
| Profession type | Can I unlearn it? |
|---|---|
| Primary (like Mining, Herbalism, Tailoring) | Yes |
| Cooking, First Aid, Fishing | No |
You can have two primary professions per character (per Warcraft Tavern), so dropping one frees a slot.
Think twice
If you relearn it later, your skill starts over from the beginning. With WoW Forever's 600+ new recipes, a profession is a real investment. What's new.
Can Willo help me choose?
Ask me: "Which profession goes well with Mining?" or "Is Herbalism good for a Druid?" For gold ideas, see how to make gold.
