Engineering in WoW Forever
Engineers build explosives, fireworks, gadgets, guns and mechanical pets, and the odd device that doesn’t do quite what it should. Much of it only engineers can use, which makes it a favorite for PvP and for fun.
Good first profession? Only if you want the gadgets. It costs a lot, and most of the best devices are for engineers only, so it earns little gold.
How it works in Classic.
What it makes
- Explosives and fireworks
- Bombs and dynamite for fights, fireworks for fun.
