Is there something like a skinner profession in this game?

Oh someone holy! Seriously? I have to depend on rng to get skins?

The RNG isn't that bad. There's usually a specific type of mob to kill and the hides/skins tend to drop in multiples. Unless you're trying to produce massive quantities of the same leather at one time, it doesn't take that long to farm what you need.
