Wow Engineering leveling guide 1-450 for 3.3.3
This Engineering Guide was created to help you level through 1-450 in the quickest way possible.
Engineering Introduction
To start you’ll have to go to a major city and seek out an engineering trainer (just ask a guard for directions). Once you find the trainer train “Apprentice Engineering” and you are ready to begin!
The supplies for engineering are found in a variety of places, some of the supplies are from mining and smelting, while others are found at vendors and off of mobs. Some of the items required by some engineering formulas are actually created through other engineering formulas so pay attention to the chart and where it says “Keep” or “Sell” because you will need many items to make others as you level up.
In order to make some items in this guide you will have to create an “Arclight Spanner” and a “Gyromatic Micro-Adjustor” these items are not consumed in the recipes you need them for, so hold onto at least one of each of them!
