If you are going to PVP - take the engineering.
Potions are useless when you die a lot!! I would know, i have both professions almost up to 300 on each.
Plus any potion you could ever want you can get an equal item out of engineering.
Swiftness potion = rocket boots
ect...
plus you get so many other neat items and dynamite you cant go wrong.
Good point on the dying part, but playing the devil's advocate...
Many engineering items are only useful if you're an engineer. Potions can be used by anyone, and higher-level potions and herbs go for good money on the AH.
I have to agree though, lots of cool engineering items. Just depends on what you're looking for from a trade skill.
