Engineers rise up!

Wonder why the tailoring flying mount (Flying Carpet) is BoP while this engineer land mount won't be?
I admit that every class should have some highest thing that's BoP and some BoE which could be sold for profit.

I do, however, realize that usually selling the materials needed for some craftable usually provide higher profit than the actual craftable. Which why blizzard should decrease the initial materials needed to make things or higher drop/gathering rate so that there would be so much stuff for sale that the price of materials would never exceed the crafted item's price.

Engineers will indeed get some nice stuff in WotLK according to what's revealed. It will be as useful (read: fun to use) as before, even if not many of the items you make are useful after you pass the respective level range.

I cherish the idea of making parachute kits for cloaks and boosters for boots so you don't have to keep 30 levels lower stuff in your bank just for those Gadgetzan etc transports. Just hope Blizzard would understand that fun isn't opposite of effectiveness, so that these "kits" woulnd't occupy enchant slot for respective item either, but I guess that's not going to happen.

You know that our flying mount was only useable by engineers aswell. So whats the big deal? :

Going by the OP's logic, only hunters should be able to ride "living" mounts cos they are the only ones who can tame em. The rest of us should walk.

YES. THIS SHOULD HAPPEN. World of Huntercraft, here we come!

The motorcycle is not a way to make money. The mats themselves are going to be expensive as hell. And as far as comparing it to tailoring, well thats just stupid. Tailoring has plenty of benefits that make it worth leveling. A huge reason people pick engineering is for the fun gadgety aspect. If someone wanted to make money with a profession then they would'nt choose engineering. The motorcycle is a symbol of engineering, those who level the skill up to 450 and make it should be allowed to ride it aronud and no one else. Its not a logical way to make money.

I earn a lot of money on my Engineering...

Extracting motes from clouds easily earn me 1500-2000g each day.

Engineering = Bombs and BoP / engineering only crap, i dont see any point earning gold in it except mote exctractor! Yeah tailers gets carpets but they get like 5 different, engineers get a blue chopper and a epic one, then a cool flashy motercycle that ALL gets, realy i cant see the irony, i want nice self-exploding-useless items!

You're either the only Engineer on your server, your server has a totally fubared Primal economy, or you farm 12 hours a day.

./sign Hogs should be BOP or very expensive.
