Tips?

So i decided to solo lvl a warrior and i need some help: what professions should i pick? Any good lvling spec? 
I would like to be a dps but also tank 5-man dungeons while lvling.

- skinning and herbalism or mining (if you plan on mining Dire Maul: East later I'd go mining)

- I'd go arms PvP spec and tactical mastery is really nice for tanking

The main thing I always recommend is getting Piercing howl/Blood Craze/Enrage in the Fury tree as soon as possible. This is because when you /sit down, mobs have a 100% chance of critically striking you, making it possible to keep Enrage up at all times with a lot of Blood Craze procs. Piercing Howl is used to get out of situations that you'd die in otherwise. 

After that you can continue speccing Fury or switch to Arms, whatever you prefer. 

Example leveling specs:

2-handed Fury

Arms

Dual-wield Fury (usually not recommended while leveling due to increased miss chance)

You can switch around most of the talents depending on personal preference, like unbridled wrath -> improved demoralizing shout and such. I'd just always recommend getting Enrage, or at the very least Piercing Howl. A 6 second AoE daze that only costs 10 rage and has no cooldown is a lifesaver while leveling. 

As for your other questions, you can tank all dungeons in full DPS spec so that's not something to worry about. 

The only must-have profession is Engineering if you're a big fan of PvP, otherwise you can pretty much pick whatever you want. Mining/Herbalism/Skinning for gold while leveling, Alchemy/Blacksmithing/Enchanting for late-game use, etc.
