World of Warcraft Engineering Guide
Of the 14 professions in WoW, Engineering is one that is of high value in the end game. In this guide I’m going to give you the basics of this profession as well as share some tips and tricks for making large sums of gold with this profession.
All classes in WoW can learn the Engineering profession, but it’s most useful to the Hunter. That’s because Hunters main weapons are made up of guns, arrows, bullets and scopes. Other classes can use these items but these are the Hunters’ main weapons.
The only race to receive a bonus from Engineering are Gnomes. Initially this bonus might be useful but as your level increases this advantage will become less and less significant.
The best profession to choose to accompany Engineering is Mining. When you leave the beginning zone, ask the guard where to find both trainers for Engineers and Miners.
The one tool I recommend you make as soon as you can (you’ll need to have a skill level of 450) is a Gnomish Army Knife. You can make this knife regardless of your players’ level so work on your engineering and make it ASAP – this tool has a heap of extremely useful applications.
One of the main reasons that I suggested you pair Engineering with Mining is that you’ll need a lot of metal in order to upskill your profession. Mining can give this to you. Furthermore, mining is a great gathering profession to have as its one of the most profitable in WoW.
One negative you might come across as an Enineer is that you won’t be able to sell everything you create. That’s because not all players can use the items you create, some items are just too technical for non-engineers. You can still make a wide variety of items that will serve as cash cows however, so go after the gold with those.
