Eternal Fires are far more expensive on the AH than any other eternals because they aren't as easily obtained just by merely mob farming. As a result of this, they normally go for 40-50g on the AH. The map below is going to assist engineers in making their farming of steam clouds a little bit easier by following the path shown.

What your going to be doing is farming Crystallized Fire and Crystallized Water off the Steam Clouds in Sholazar Basin. Your map of Sholazar should look like this if you did it properly:

Eternal Fire Farming


I personally followed the path shown above over a 1 hour period and I managed to obtain 108 Crystallized Fire and 37 Crystallized Water. So in total 10 Eternal Fire and 3 Eternal Water which netted me 486g all together after selling them on the AH while selling them at a slight price reduction compared to the competition. Happy Eternal Fire farming folks!

Engineering 375-450
Engineering is yet another primary crafting profession that can create many cool, useful and amazing items. The highlight of WotLK for Engineering is none other than the ultra expensive motorcycle land mount. Another personal favorite of mine is the Noise Machine for spell casters or in my case... my mage which helps a lot during AoE farming.

Alrighty, let us have a look at where the trainers are for Engineering:

Alliance:
Sock Brightbolt - 57,72 in Valiance Keep, Borean Tundra.
Tisha Longbridge - 59,64 in Valgarde, Howling Fjord.

Horde:
Jamesina Watterly - 78,30 in Vengence Landing, Howling Fjord.

Neutral:
Justin Oshenko - 35,25 in Dalaran.
Findle Whistlesteam (Gnome Engineering) - 39,25 in Dalaran.
Didi the Wrench (Goblin Engineering) - 39,25 in Dalaran.


Here is the powerleveling guide for Engineering 375 to 450. Kindly note that some of the steps might be overlapping, so use the one which you have mats for or can be bought cheaply from the auction house:

375-385
Overcharged Capacitor - 4 Cobalt Bar, 1 Crystallized Earth.

385-390
Explosive Decoy – 1 Frostweave Cloth, 3 Volatile Blasting Trigger

390-400

First and foremost, you would need to be an Engineer with a Mote Extractor in order to do this. Head over to the north of Howling Fjord where you can find them at the 3 lakes where the mote clouds spawns quite often.

You can easily obtain between 30-40 primals in an hour if you are the only one there. For the exact location, kindly view the map below:



Crystallized Air


Update: 25th Nov 2008
Crystallized Water Farming Spot

Frozen Earth mobs around here drop 1-2 crystallized water every single kill. The exact spot is highlighted on the map below (kindly click map for enlarge view).

Co-ords are 54,47 in Zul'Drak

A map showing where the Fel Mist spawn spots in Shadow Moon Valley. You would need to be an Engineer and have the mote extractor to do this. You can easily get all the primal shadow you need for SR or just sell them for a nice profit since they are quite in demand.

Large Prismatic Shard has always been a hot commodity in the game due to its various usage in enchanting, blacksmithing and engineering profession. A great way to obtain this is by disenchanting rare items above level 66 especially those obtained through instance runs. Unfortunately doing this requires a large investment of your time for just a few shards.

A faster method to obtain Large Prismatic Shards is via crafted rare items. Here I shall list 3 items which materials required to craft is generally cheaper than the average price of a Large Prismatic Shard especially if you have the corresponding gathering profession.


Engineering - Cogspinner Goggles
The schematic can be purchased from faction town in Hellfire Peninsula.
Reagents Required:
4 x Heavy Knothide Leather
2 x Blood Garnet
8 x Arcane Dust


Tailoring - Arcanoweave Bracers
The pattern is a rare drop from Arcatraz Sentinel at The Arcatraz instance.
Reagents Required:
6 x Bolt of Netherweave
12 x Arcane Dust
2 x Rune Thread


Jewelcrafting - Thick Felsteel Necklace
This design is a rare world drop item which makes it the hardest of all 3.
Reagents Required:
2 x Felsteel Bar
3 x Mercurial Adamantite

This is so extremely funny and super fun when it works that I just have to share with you guys.

Almost everyone has seen the Fel Reaver running around in the Outlands, and may or may not have killed or been killed by it, nevertheless, you can tell it packs a punch!


First, you must be an Engineer with at least 125 skill level and go to shimmering flats and buy the schematic for Gnomish Universal Remote.

Next create it and head on down to the Outlands, if all works as planned, this should happen:


Do bear in mind that it doesn't work all the time but when it DOES... my god it is pure EVIL FUN! I shall leave it to your imagination on what you can do with this... Have Fun!
