Trading gnomish and goblin items between each other?Follow

#1 Dec 09 2005 at 4:51 AM Rating: Decent
I have come to the point where I have to choose between the Gnomish engineering and the Goblin engineering.

I am leaning heavily towards choosing Goblin, basically because I want the bombs and im on a PvP server.

But nobody can deny that gnomish probably has the most fun items, probably why most people by far pick the gnomish school.

But I am wondering if it is possible for a goblin engineer to get a gnomish made item (for example Gnomish Shrink Ray) (of course if its not BoP) from a gnomish engineer and use it.

?

I hope you guys can answer this for me, and give me some clues.

Thank you

Yes, most engineering devices only require engineering to use. There are a handful of items that are goblin or gnome specific. But otherwise it’s just a mater of fining someone to make the item for you or finding it on the auction house.

Go gnomish and have someone make you a goblin rocket helm and you have the best of both sides. The only things you'll miss out on are the dragon gun (nice but not indispensable) and the bombs (which suck, cost a fortune to make and you can't move while throwing them like regular bombs)

Depends on your class, but if you ever do AV, i recomend the Dragon gun that goblin tree makes, in a one on one contest the death ray(gnomish pop) dose way way way more dammage, to a single target, dragon gun.... welljust for giggles I parced the data form a AV match, well i caught 10 folks with it at onece with a average dammage of 64 damamge for 10 sec, so WAIT, I did 6400 dammage with one shot--- well it is not as cool as it sounds, nobody died, but I sure sofentend that rush across the bridge, it is most likely luck but my dragon gun rarely backfires. but ya the goblin only bombs are great, if your a gold buyer, na realy though "The Big One" is a rocken bomb but jsut not worth it unless it is a group effort thing, like one guy goes out and farms the Metal/stone one guy gets the pirates for rum, My alchemest makes rocket fule. I have done this twice making 20 bombs each time, I think so hard every time I thorw one because of the time invested,I still have 18 left, Yup I have only justified throwing 2(I ued them hevely before, but only 2 out of my last stack)

to me the biggest thing to keep in mind, to you want a quick trip to Gadget, or Everlook, for your transporter, because thats the biggest diffrence I see
