List for Horde
- This list uses 3 crafting professions: Leatherworking (Chest, Waist), Engineering (Trinket), Enchanting (Relic). You can only learn two, so pick two and use the next-best alternative for items from the others.
The list itself stays as is, so you can still see the strongest item for each slot.
