In this World of Warcraft guide everything revolves around Shadowlands Engineering and how to level it.

Please be aware, that reagents and itemlevel in tooltips may not be correct.
Blizzard is still not done with adjusting the required reagents for professions.

Most important new features

  • Many engineering devices are now more powerful, but also more difficult to control. Misfires can be catastrophic! However, a higher skill in engineering reduces the chance of backfires.
  • Engineering glasses have fantastic values, look super-fancy and grant +20 Engineering Skill.
  • As in other expansions, Shadowlands has a mechanical auction house that can only be used by engineers. The Photonic Gearhaggle can be found near the Engineering Trainer in the Hall of Shapes in Oribos.

Shadowlands Engineering Trainer

You can learn Shadowlands Engineering with a Level 50 character or higher from this trainer in Oribos:

  • WoW Allianz WoW Horde Machinist Au’gur – Oribos, Hall of Shapes (38.1, 44.7)
    If you can’t find your trainer directly, you can also ask a city guard.

The Journal for Shadowlands Engineering is called Engineer’s Journal.

Shopping List

The following list of materials is only a rough guide to get an overview of the quantitative dimensions of reagents needed to skill at maximum level! Depending on your luck or bad luck with the yellow/green recipes you might need more or less materials.

A shopping list for engineering is much more complex than for any other profession, partly because the variances can be very high. Therefore, there are specifications for the best case (2-3 parts per production always result in 3 parts), for the worst case (2-3 parts per craft always result in 2) and a corresponding average value.

TOTALLY the following demand results:

In addition, depending on your choice in the guide (from 92-100), the following reagents are required:

for Cloth Goggles: 60-80 Shrouded Cloth, 12-16 Umbryl
for Leather Goggles: 60-80 Desolate Leather, 6-8 Oriblase, 6-8 Umbryl
for Mail Goggles: 25-35 Desolate Leather, 25-35 Pallid Bone, 6-8 Angerseye, 6-8 Umbryl
for Plate Goggles: 60-80 Sinvyr Ore, 12-16 Angerseye


The following is a breakdown of the calculation of the materials:

  • 115-130 Handful of Laestrite Bolts 
    Best Case: 70 Laestrite Ore, Worst Case: 130 Laestrite Ore, Average Value: 100 Laestrite Ore
  • 35-130 Porous Stone (only when skilling from 18-25 with Porous Abrasive)
  • 174-196 Laestrite Ore (unprocessed)
  • 35-42 Wormfed Gear Assembly – 50 pieces are crafted in the guide from Skill 26 to 75 – per craft you get 1-2, so potentially 50-100 (and thus sufficient) are created with the following materials:
    250 Porous Polishing Abrasive 
    Best Case: 420 Porous Stone, Worst Case: 625 Porous Stone, Average Value: 525
    200 Handful of Laestrite Bolts 
    Best Case: 100 Laestrite Ore, Worst Case: 200 Laestrite Ore, Average Value: 150

With all 4 electroplasma goggles you can easily reach Skill 100, but depending on the server the prices for the materials may vary, making it impossible to say which goggles are the cheapest to craft.
