Engineering is sometimes known for how little the profession can make gold, but I can’t disagree more. Every profession has their ways of making gold and as long as you are willing to give it your best shot, you can make a lot of gold from any profession! This article will talk about one of the many ways to make gold with Engineering.

Zapthrottle Mote Extractor
Just like in the Burning Crusasde, in the new expansion, the Wrath of the Lich King, you can use the Zapthrottle Mote Extractor to extract motes in Outland and Crystallized pieces in Northrend. You can get crystallized pieces from clouds that are scattered all over Northrend. There are 3 different clouds that you can extract from:
Steam Clouds – Crystallized fire and water
Cinder Clouds – Crystallized fire
Arctic Clouds – Crystallized Air and Water

The materials to build the Zapthrottle Mote Extractor are:
2 x Fel Iron Casing
2 x Fel Iron Casing
4 x Primal Life
1 x Delicate Arcanite Converter

Where to farm in Northrend
From what I have seen and heard it looks like Borean Tundra, Dragonblight, and Sholazar Basin are the best places to farm the clouds. If you have a gathering profession you can search for nodes or herbs as you look for these clouds. Try and find the best route for yourself as you look for these clouds while looking for your materials for your gathering profession. Efficiency is key to making a lot of gold with the Zapthrottle Mote Extractor. I will definitely write about more Engineering ways to make gold in the World of Warcraft. Stay tuned!
