With Wrath prepatch upon us I have seen a new phenomenon by which all guilds are requiring engineering on all our characters. They all mention the rocket boots as the reason. Engineering has practically become the new Leatherworking. The solution is easy.
Make rocket boots BOE and remove the engineering requirement.
OR
Make rocket boots unusable in raids.
In this way, the obligation for people to go engineering will be mitigated.
Blizzard correctly nerfed the Drums for TBC. It should also do something about engineering in Wrath.
Idk why engineering is a problem now, never heard about it before. On flat stats, there are better proffesions. Are those Rocket boots really that op? Dont think so
Yeah our more serious raid team has engi as requirement, but it is a nominal rule, since like 30/35 of them were going it anyway because it is by far BiS with boots and sappers and all that.
I’ll be happily sitting in the bommer dad raid with my tailor/enchant
But yeah, there is little doubt Engi is by far the best PvE profession for any class. Casters pretty much locked to engi/tailor for embroidery.
