I cannot wait to get this game. I am just confused about which combo of professions I should go for... I really have nothing better to do than think about professions...
I have been eying Tailoring and Herbalism/Alchemy.
I just want to know which is more beneficial for a mage? Which makes more money?

Hmmm i've found that if you can't decide herbalism/alchemy is a great choice for anyone, everyone could use a potion for whatever purpose. Enchanting is good but VERY time consuming and expensive, you gotta go through multiple magic items just to get the ingredients. I haven't messed w/ many other skills so there's all the advice i can give.

Tailoring is overdone on most servers... most cloth classes go for tailoring, just like most leather classes go for skinning/leatherworking. If you go for Alchemy instead, you can be sure that you'll be in a minority - but you also won't have anything really useful for general production and sale-for-profit for a long time. While the first few brackets of potions that you can make are really handy (my Hunter usually has 4 potion-effects on him at any given time - Defense, Troll's Blood, and a few others), nobody really wants to pay for them.

i cant wait to get this game too, tailoring might be a good mage skill since mages can only wear cloth armor

Don't get me wrong - both Tailoring and Leatherworking are great for augmenting your own personal gear. But there are dozens, if not hundreds, of other people using the same trade skills on each server, so making a profit on it is difficult - "right place, right time," gets you more profit than hard work and diligence.

Youcan also choose for engenering, this prof. won't make you a lot of money an takes a lot of time,but it's the only prof witch makes items you cant buy from other players, and has also usefull items in each situation, like an underwater breathing helmet and a chest lock destroying explosive. The most powerfull items must be the engeneer items, but there not all stabel..
