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.

Any of the classes in WoW can learn to become Engineers. Out of all the classes, I believe that the Hunter’s are most suited to being Engineers as they rely on items Engineers produce - items such as bullets, arrows, and guns.

If you choose to be a Gnome you’ll be able to get a bonus from the Engineering profession. While this will help somewhat at lower levels, as the game progresses this advantage will become less and less noticeable.

I have always found Mining to be the profession that is most suited to Engineering. When you are ready to leave the starting area at the beginning of the game make sure you ask for directions to both Engineering and Mining trainers.

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.

In order to improve your Engineering skill you are going to need a massive amount of metal. That’s the reason Mining is best paired with Engineering. As a positive side effect, Mining is also arguably WoW most lucrative profession.

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.

I hope the tips I’ve mentioned above will serve you well. For more information about the Engineering profession or just about WoW in general, visit the links below.
