TechRepublic contributor Wally Bahny takes you through World of Warcraft's Engineering profession, a world of Steam Tonks, Dimensional Rippers, and Khorium Destroyers.

This is a picture of Metral the Hunter, member of Technologia, the official unofficial guild of TechRepublic. Metral is a highly skilled Engineer.

Engineering provides the player with many crafted items including clothing, such as the Surestrike Goggles v2.0 pictured above, and pets, like the non-combat "companion" pet Mechanical Squirrel also above. While companions cannot engage in combat, Engineers are also able to make combat pets, such as an Explosive Sheep, which charges a target and then explodes causing damage.

Continue on for a deeper look into the Engineering profession.
