I was looking at upgrades as I level my Priest (now 74) - I have gone shadow on advice and it seems to have worked.

Several of the upgrades for trinkets were crafted and it got me to thinking about what he should do.

He currently has Mining and Engineering but Engineering is only at 53 atm. Should I stay engineered or scrap it and do something else.

I already have max in all professions on other characters so its really only about what might be most helpful for him.

The other professions that give trinkets - JC,Alchemy & Inscription iirc are all quite expensive to level - not that Engineering is cheap.

I would value opinions.

He isn't going to raid so I am not going to get high level drops. Just quest rewards

I would stick with Engineering if you already have every other profession maxed out but that might be the completionist in me talking. Trinket wise, I would just stick to quest rewards. Nothing you get from professions, trinket wise, is worth keeping around expecially once you get to Hyjal/Vashj'ir (not that you don't already know that ). Engineering has a nice helm you can make at max level plus with cogs you will get a massive stat boost in your choice of stats.

TL;DR - Stick with Engineering.

The best reason to go with Inscription is getting to completely skip Deepholm and the Therazane rep grind for your shoulder 'chant. Other than that, all the professions basically balance out.

I like engineering on my priest. I have the cardboard assassin tinker hotkeyed, in case I need to divert a little attention away from the healer. The helm is nice for a new level 85. Plus, the wormhole generator comes in handy for getting around, and don't forget your Loot-a-rang. Yeah, I'm an engineering fan.

Ultimately, do what you like and have fun.
