Engineering

Engineering is the expensive profession that makes the raid’s life easier: bombs, scopes and ammo for Hunters, PvP toys for everyone, and in Forever the Repair Bot, which is the only camp object that repairs gear. The guild needs one or two engineers, not ten. If you take it, you are the person who places the Repair Bot at the summoning stone.

Bombs, grenades, scopes, goggles, trinkets, guns, and in Forever: SAF-T Dynamite and SAF-T bombs (safer versions), EZ-Thro variants, parachutes and gliders, Emergency Field Cloak, Compact Critter Carrier, Loot-A-Rang, Hyper Deluxe Sniper Rifle Mk XVII (300, item level 65), Swiftfeather Arrow and Swiftstrike Shot ammo, and field transporters to Mount Hyjal and Gadgetzan (the Deep Dive’s “Dimensional Transporter to Mount Hyjal”). verified from foreverchanges.pro and classicwowforever.com.

Hunters (guns, scopes, ammo, the new Sniper Rifle). PvPers of every class (bombs, nets, reflectors). Raid utility (Goblin Sapper Charge in vanilla, vanilla baseline). Anyone who values a Repair Bot at a remote camp, which is everyone. The guild plan: one hunter and one rogue or warrior take Mining + Engineering.

76 new recipes per foreverchanges, 80 per zockify, plus 29 on the Merchant’s Favor vendor. foreverchanges notes “36 more recipes make an item the client does not describe yet, and are left out.” verified

Gnomish and Goblin both remain and “receive new toys and crafts unique to their respective paths.” unverified, search snippet only. The leveling routes avoid spec schematics so either choice works. verified Vanilla trainers, vanilla baseline: Gnomish via Tinkmaster Overspark (Ironforge) or Oglethorpe Obnoticus (Booty Bay); Goblin via Nixx Sprocketspring (Gadgetzan) or Vazario Linkgrease (Ratchet). In vanilla, Goblin gave Sapper Charges and the Gadgetzan transporter; Gnomish gave the Gnomish Death Ray and the Everlook transporter. Whether Forever’s new Hyjal and Gadgetzan transporters are spec-gated is not stated.

  • Take Mining. Buying bars for Engineering is the fastest way to be broke at 40 without a mount.
  • Do not level past what you need until you have riding money. The vanilla 100 gold at 40 rule is now “100 gold of riding training, mount free.” See Gold and economy.
  • The Repair Bot Blueprint drops from a dungeon boss nobody has named. The moment a guildmate sees one, it goes to the engineer, not the AH.
  • Bartering (Legacy) knocks 10% off the vendor parts (Weak Flux, Blasting Powder ingredients, Wooden Stock). See Legacy.
  • Skill levels and effects of most new schematics.
  • Whether the new spec-specific toys exist and what they are.
  • Bind status and “engineer only” requirements on new toys and the Sniper Rifle.
