Engineering Guide 1-450

This Engineering guide is designed to aid you in leveling your engineering from 1-450.  Although you might find alternative methods along the way but in my experience this is the fastest and most affordable way.  If you fail to follow this guide you may end up wasting gold on extra mats you won’t need.

Traditionally players who take up engineering are also miners.  It is not necessary to be a miner though it may reduce the cost of leveling your engineering since you won’t have to buy all the mats.  If you’d like to become a miner you can also visit my my wow mining guide.

Although in this engineering guide I have made every attempt to make leveling engineering as affordable as possible it will still require a considerable amount of gold.  If you are low on gold I recommend this guide.  You don’t have to use the guide but it will make power leveling your Engineering much easier.  (This is the actual guide that I use)
