Which is more useful for PvP: Apothacary or Survivalist?

    35 adventure level and I just started the three gathering profs to make some money. I thought I could take cooking (survivalist? not logged in) and one other prof. but it's telling me I need to un-learn one first. So:​


    1. am I correct in thinking cooking is a major skill so can't be kept along with the gathering ones? and​

    2. Are either Apoth. or Cooking good for PvP? The foods I've tried so far with buffs expire if you die​

    Survival does not count towards your trade skill limit. Everyone can learn it. The higher end foods are pretty good and I found cheap to make. So even if you die you can make more. I think there is also an achievement or leaderboard stat that follows how many food items you eat.

    Apothecary is amazing, and i wish i'd taken it. Thankfully someone was kind enough to dump all his extra potions while levelling on me, and they've turned a huge number of PvP battles in my favour. At 53, i have a potion which can absorb around 7.5k damage -- which is pretty insane. Survival, however, is mostly useless -- especially in PvP. It's nice for topping your HP back up if you're unlucky enough to be without a healer, but +23 spellpower and 200ish health is completely insignificant in a warfront (and just about everywhere)
