Ultimate WoW GuideYou're almost to 450 with your Engineering skill! The rest of this guide will get you there. Don't forget that if you are trying to purchase your materials, this can get costly. You may want to take a look at a WoW Gold Guide to help you get enough money to buy your materials with ease.

 

 

205 - 280

Visit your trainer and learn Artisan Engineering.

Engineering has the option at skill level 200 to specialize in Gnomish or Goblin Engineering. The main difference between both sides is the location of their respective teleporters and the ability of their trinkets. Some items require a specific specialization to use, while other items are crafted by one specialization but are usable by any engineer. Fortunately, most recipes that are crafted by one Specialization can be worn by both.

Gnomish Engineering

Goblin Engineering

  • 200 - 210
    12 x [Unstable Triggers] 12 Mithril Bar, 12 Mageweave Cloth, 12 Solid Blasting Powder

    Save these.

  • 235 - 245
    10 x [Hi-Explosive Bomb] - 20 Mithril Casings, 10 Unstable Trigger, 20 Solid Blasting Powder
  • 250 - 260
    20 x [Dense Blasting Powder] - 40 Dense Stone

    Save these and if you don't reach 260 by making these, make a few more [Mithril Gyro-Shot].

280 - 350

 Go to Outland or Northrend,visit your trainer, and learn Master Engineering

.

  • 300 - 310
    50 x [Handful of Fel Iron Bolts] - 50 Fel Iron Bar

    You will need tons of these later. I suggest you to make these until it goes grey, then only make more when you'll need them.

  • 310-320
    If you don't reach 320 by making the recipes below, you should make [Fel Iron Bombs] until 320. But then you also need to make a few more Fel Iron Bolts and the other materials.

    10 x [4 Elemental Blasting Powder] - 20 Mote of Earth, 10 Mote of Fire

    Save these.

    15 x [Fel Iron Casing] - 45 Fel Iron Bar

    You will need around 15 of these later, but I suggest you to make these until it goes grey, then only make more when you'll need them.

  • 320 - 325
    5 x [Fel Iron Musket] - 5 Heavy Stock, 15 Fel Iron Casing, 30 Handful of Fel Iron Bolts
  • 325 - 335
    10 x [Adamantite Grenade] 40 Adamantite Bar, 10 Elemental Blasting Powder, 20 Handful of Fel Iron Bolts

350 - 450

 Go to Northrend, visit your trainer and learn Grand Master Engineering.

  • 350 - 370 

    You will need around 50 [Handful of Cobalt Bolts] and 36 [Volatile Blasting Trigger] later. Make these now, and you should reach 375 or probably more. Note that when you craft [Handful of Cobalt Bolts] you can get 1 or 3 bolts, and the same goes for [Volatile Blasting Trigger], you will get 2 [Volatile Blasting Trigger] each craft.

    35 x [1-3 Handful of Cobalt Bolts] - 70 Cobalt Bar

  • 377 - 385
    Save these too, you will need them.

    10 x [Overcharged Capacitor] - 40 Cobalt Bar, 10 Crystallized Earth

  • 385 - 390 

    8 x [Explosive Decoy] - 8 Frostweave Cloth, 24 Volatile Blasting Trigger

  • 390 - 400
    Save these too, you will need them later.

    You will probably reach more then 400, then stop making these and make more only if you need it.

    15 x [Froststeel Tube] - 120 Cobalt Bar, 15 Crystallized Water

  • 405 - 415 

    13 x [Box of Bombs] - 65 Saronite Bar, 13 Volatile Blasting Trigger

  • 415 - 420
    You can sell these at the Auction House.

    5 x [Mana Injector Kit] - 60 Saronite Bar, 10 Crystallized Water

  • 420 - 430 

    13 x [Mechanized Snow Goggles] - 104 Saronite Bar, 26 Borean Leather, 13 Eternal Shadow

  • 430 - 435
    5 x [Noise Machine] - 10 Froststeel Tube, 10 Overcharged Capacitor, 40 Handful of Cobalt Bolts
  • 435 - 450 

    When you reach 440, you can make your epic Engineering Helm, however if you want to level your Engineering past 440, you should wait with your Goggles until 445, because there are only green recipes at that point, but the Goggles are still orange.

    This part is stupid I know, but there is just no other recipe that you can use to level your Engineering. The Gnomish Army Knife recipe turns yellow at 440 and green at 445. It doesn't sell at all, at least I couldn't sell any yet. That's pretty much a few thousand gold worth of Saronite Bars down the drain. Most of the time you will need to make a lot more then 25 of these.

    25 x [Gnomish Army Knife] - 250 Saronite Bar, 25 Skinning Knife, 25 Minning Pick, 25 Blacksmithing Hammer

Making the Most Out of Engineering

While you’re increasing your skills, it’s also a good idea to start making other items that you can sell. Hang out in the auction house and watch which items are in demand. Get the necessary materials and the recipes and you’ll be able to start selling these items on your own. This is a great way to make extra money to purchase the components you need for your skill levels to increase.
