Engineering is used to assemble metal and stones into parts needed to make explosives, guns, scopes, bullets, mechanical dragons, aquatic helmets, and more. More than any other Profession, engineering products require several steps to be completed. Bombs and Dynamite are the bread and butter of the engineer's creations. Many engineering recipes require a lot of different parts before the item can be created. This will require more space in your bags than other Professions. Engineering is a very fun and creative Profession. You can create all kinds of wacky things that are fun to use and also entertain and amaze other players.

If you plan on being an engineer, you should probably already be a miner. Miners collect ore and smelt ore into bars to create the majority of engineering items. Engineer recipes often include jewels, which are found in a variety of places. Typicalliy, most engineers buy or are given rare jewels from other players. Some engineer recipes require leather, which you will need to buy from a skinner. You will need to find a lot of other odd ingredients for your recipes that might need to be purchased from other players. Some items can actually be fished up with the fishing skill or found from monster drops or treasure chests.

The engineering trainer has some very cool engineering plans. However, there are many more interesting and desirable plans out there to find from monster drops. You will likely have to buy these from other players or get them from friends if you aren't lucky enough to get them yourself.

• You can create area of effect and direct damage explosives that you can use during combat. You can also give or sell these to other players.
• Scopes do not require the Engineering skill to equip.
• The level of the Mechanical Dragonlings, Battlechicken, and Bombs dropped by the Goblin Bomb Dropper scale with your engineering skill, so they will be always useful against enemies.
• You can find engineering devices as drops on higher level (50+) dungeons and in raids.
• Bombs cause a disorient effect when they go off.
• Target Dummies generate an initial taunt pulse so creatures will attack them for the first 5 seconds after they are dropped.
• Both types of the engineer-made Jumper Cables share a cooldown.

Repair Robot
An engineering recipe is available in Blackrock Depths for a repair robot. This robot acts as a repair vendor for 10 minutes and will repair and purchase items for normal cost. This will allow dungeon groups and raids to get items repaired and sold without returning to town.
