Engineering leveling guide

Engineering in Classic Era runs from 1 to 300 on stone, metal bars and some cloth, which makes Mining the natural partner. Much of what you craft is a part for a later recipe, so keep everything. Counts are approximate: a recipe can turn green a few points earlier or later.
