Okay, thinking about changing my profession. I've been an Engineer since I was level 7, and 40 levels later, I'm just not finding it as useful as I did then. Bombs don't help me much anymore b/c I can do just as much damage in 2-3 Auto Shots. And it's just becoming a pain, an expensive pain at that, having to pay so much to get my skill up. I hardly make any money off of it at all, except I do have one client who pays me 6G per Green Lens I make (large radiant shards sell for 7 on my server right now), and it costs me almost that much to make one. Even when I do farm the Wildvine, and get the leather from friends, Aquamarine costs about 1.5G each and Jade is around the same ... Only use I find from Engineering is the Mining Helmet with the +5 to Mining skill. I have +5 on my gloves too though ...
And worst of all is that I chose the line of Goblin Engineering ... and that was a big mistake. I have no use for bombs. I'd much rather have a Discombobulator or Shrink Ray or something like that.
But I don't know what I'd take up to replace it. Herbalism and Alchemy maybe? Heck, I'd benefit a LOT from Elixir of the Mongoose. Or maybe Leatherworking and go the Dragonscale route. That Black Dragonscale Armor is really nice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
