So far as a Frost mage Engineering hasn't given me much love. A few months ago it was pretty cool but I've come to realize that Engineering as a profession is pretty much useless to me, except for the Goggles which are the only thing that is keeping me from dropping. With all the chaincasting I can barely ever use any of the bombs, and the items are rather expensive to make with almost no moneymaking potential. If I'm going to drop one right now, it would be better because I wouldn't have to worry about it after getting to level 80.
The question I want to ask is should I not drop it and hope for more usefulness in Wrath? Or if I should drop it, what professions should I pick up instead? I was thinking tailoring and enchanting for the money potential and to take advantage of the Blood Elf racial. Tell me what you think.

Personally, I would wait to see what eng in Wrath offers before making any true decision. Tailoring is already great for the sets and money (i.e. Shadoweave and Spellthreads), so it's probably gonna be a great profession in WotLK. I would personally wait until more engineer information is leaked from WotLK, however.
Totally agree with this assessment. Most of the profs that whine about not having enough junk, and dont get me wrong i agree with you that the goggles and mote extractor are all we've got really, get the most good stuff. Ive got a pally with blacksmithing which does nothing for him and would drop it if i didnt think it wud help once the expansion comes out.

Ok guys thanks for the advice. I think I will keep it to see what goodies we get for the expansion. I hear we can make parachute cloak enchants (lol) and binoculars attached to belts and stuff. Maybe I'll actually be able to make some money if these things catch on.
