WoW Classic – Gnomish Engineering Specializations

Gnomish Engineering Specializations

Engineering is one of the select few professions in WoW Classic that offers specializations within the profession. As an Engineer, you can choose to specialize in Gnomish Engineering or Goblin Engineering. Once you are 200 in Engineering, you can pick up the quest for whichever specialization you want to choose from an Engineering trainer.

Gnomish Engineering focuses more on utility devices and gadgets, many of which are very useful in PvP. It also offers some powerful PvE items, specifically the  Gnomish Battle Chicken, which when attacking has a chance to proc a buff that grants melee haste to all party members. This is considered by many melee DPS to be a must have in raids if you want to be as competitive as possible. It is worth noting that you should be careful when using some of these devices, as many of them have the potential to backfire, either causing the effect to you instead of the enemy or doing something else bad. Read the tooltip of the item to see if there is a chance of it backfiring or failing.

There are two Gnomish Engineering trainers, Oglethorpe Obnoticus in Stranglethorn Vale and Tinkmaster Oversparkin Ironforge. They both teach the same recipes.

• -Gnomish Battle Chicken — Creates a battle chicken that fights for you for 2 minutes. Each attack it does has a chance to enrage it, which causes it to grant a melee haste buff to all party members.

• -Gnomish Death Ray — You slowly channel your health into the trinket, losing some health, before blasting the target with your death ray, dealing massive damage.

• -Gnomish Harm Prevention Belt — You can activate this belt to put a shield on you that absorbs 500 damage.

•  -Gnomish Mind Control Cap — This helmet mind controls the target for 20 seconds when used, making them follow you around as an ally during that time.

• -Gnomish Net-o-Matic Projector — Throws a net at the target, rooting them for 10 seconds. Sometimes it backfires however, rooting you instead.

•  -Gnomish Rocket Boots — These boots significantly increase your run speed for 20 seconds when used.

• -Gnomish Shrink Ray — Reduces the target’s attack power by 250.
