Wrath Engineering Guide


Rating:

Engineering is a primary crafting profession that can create as many useful items including end level epic helms, guns, bullets, arrows and scopes. Looking at that list it’s no wonder that many hunters will find engineering useful but other classes will also find interesting items as an Engineer. The ability to harvest “clouds” for motes and crystallized elements, the Mechano-hog and Mekgineer’s Chopper for example.

List of Materials

Hopefully you’ve taken mining as a second profession or you have access to a miner otherwise Engineering will be an expensive profession to take all the way to 450. I’ve worked some leeway into the guide, often by making extra when the recipe has turn yellow just incase you don’t get a skill point. This means that there maybe some left over materials by the end.

There are occasions when you might need to buy extra. The Gnomish Knife at the end is a prime example of this. I’ve also not included the materials need to make the epic engineering helm as it is dependant on which you want to make for yourself.

310-320 10 x Fel Iron Casing
15 x 4 Elemental Blasting Powder
30 Fel Iron Bar
30 Mote of Earth
15 Mote of Fire
You need at least 5 casings and 25 powders but probably more due to Fel iron Bomb already being
yellow at 320. So make at least 10 casings and 10 powders. If you haven’t managed to get to 320 you
might want to risk moving on to the Fel iron bombs as there is a chance to make some points up.
320-325 10 x Fel Iron Bomb 10 Fel Iron Casing
20 Handful of Fel Iron Bolts
10 Elemental Blasting Powder
This is already yellow but you would be very unlucky not to get 5 points from 10 attempts.
325-340 20 x 3 Adamantite Grenade 80 Adamantite Bar
20 Elemental Blasting Powder
40 Handful of Fel Iron Bolts
Only make enough to get to 340 as it goes yellow at 335
340-350 10 x Felsteel Stabilizer 20 Felsteel Bar Time to find a trainer in Northrend

370-375 18 x 2 Volatile Blasting Trigger 54 Cobalt Bar
18 Crystallized Water
You’ll need a minimum of 25 triggers for later but we’ll make 36 (18×2) as some of the recipes will go yellow and extras may be needed
375-380 10 x Overcharged Capacitor 40 Cobalt Bar
10 Crystallized Earth
You’ll need 10 capacitors later so keep going passed 380
380-385 10 x Hammer Pick 50 Cobalt Bar Only make enough to get to 385. If you’re a miner keep 1 to replace your pick and hammer.
385-390 8 x Explosive Decoy 8 Frostweave Cloth
24 Volatile Blasting Trigger
This is one of the yellow recipes that uses the triggers, so only make enough to get to 390
390-400 15 x Froststeel Tube 120 Cobalt Bar
15 Crystallized Water
You might not need all 15 so you can stop once you get to 400 and then come back to make more if needed for later recipes
400-405 5 x Diamond-cut Refractor Scope 5 Froststeel Tube
10 Handful of Cobalt Bolts
405-415 15 x 2-4Saronite Bomb 65 Saronite Bar
15 Volatile Blasting Trigger
Another of the yellow recipes that uses the triggers, so just make enough to get to 415
415-420 5 x 5 Mana Injector Kit 60 Saronite Bar
10 Crystallized Water
420-430 15 x Mechanized Snow Goggles 120 Saronite Bar

Goes yellow at 425 so you might not need all 15 to get to 430
430-435 5 x Noise Machine 10 Froststeel Tube
10 Overcharged Capacitor
40 Handful of Cobalt Bolts
435-445 15 x Gnomish Army Knife 150 Saronite Bar
15 Skinning Knife
15 Minning Pick
15 Blacksmithing Hammer
Stop when you get to 445 to make the your engineering helm (assuming you want it)
445-446 1 x Engineering helm example Materials are dependant on what helm you want I’m assuming that since you’ve gotten this far you will want the engineering helm
446-450 15 x Gnomish Army Knife 150 Saronite Bar
15 Skinning Knife
15 Minning Pick
15 Blacksmithing Hammer
To get to the last couple of points is very expensive as the only really viable recipe to use
is the Gnomish Army Knife which unfortunately goes green at 445.
So just keep grinding them out till you get there. I would say at least 15-20 might be necessary..
unless you are very unlucky.

Summary

This really is the end.. honest

I hope you found this guide useful.
