Legend: Legacy of the Dragons Forum

Professions can be considered as a means of attaining some extra income aside from constantly killing monsters. Although a bit mundane and tedious at times, your chosen profession can be very beneficial to you as a warrior. With a little hard work and dedication, you can increase you skill level and gain mastery points by practicing your selected trade. Soon enough you will not need to purchase particular items from the shop but you would be able to produce them yourself and sell them to other players.

The following is a small list of common questions asked pertaining to professions in the world of Faeo.

What are the available professions

First off before simply listing the professions, lets categorize them based on their attributes. There are three basic categories.

1. Extractive (Raw Materils)
--> Geologist - Mines stones
--> Herbologist - Picks plants
--> Fisherman - Catches fish

2. Productive (Manufacturing)
--> Jeweler - Creates Amulets, runes, and converts stones to dust
--> Alchemist - Creates Elixirs and converts plants to collected plants
--> Sorcerer - Creates Scrolls and converts fish to Magic Ink

3. Supplementary (Services - Not related to resources)
--> Healer - Heals players injuries by using Healing scrolls
--> Locksmith - Opens various chests for players
--> Executioner - Eliminates and Injures your enemy on request

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's simple enough right?
Now let get to know each one a little more.

We'll start off with the extractive professions. Of these listed here, you may only choose one. You cannot have two professions which belong to the same category.

Geologist
This profession involves the exploration for useful minerals, the search, gathering, and study of various rock formations, minerals, and semi-precious and precious stones. They mine stones

Herbologist
This is the study of the flora of the world of Faeo, the compilation of herbaria, and the scientific handling of plants (grasses, flowers) for their later use in various areas. They pick plants

Fisherman
The profession of Fisherman provides the skills needed to catch fish, which is useful not only for food, but also for the preparation of various magic ingredients. They catch fish


Now for the Productive professions. These are the professions which make use of those raw materials that you have been gathering. Turning it into something valuable

Jeweler
The Jeweller profession is the study of gems, the processing and cutting of precious stones, and the charming of magic runes. Basically, Jewelers takes stones and other materials and produces dust, amulets and armour runes for purposes of upgrading armour.

Alchemist
The Alchemist profession is the study of alchemy and occult sciences, the search for the philosopher's stone, but above all the discovery and preparation of combat elixirs for use by fighters in combat

Sorcerer
Sorcery is the art of preparing various magic scrolls that can save the life of a warrior in combat, and the preparation of other various magic ingredients (Magic inks).


And finally, we get to the supplemtary profession. These profession are in no way related to the natural resources found in Faeo. These professions provide a service to the other inhabitants of the land. All these jobs require a large sum of money to undertake and it is strongly advised that you save up some gold before attempting to enlist as one them.

Healer
Healers are those skilled warriors with the ability to heal another warriors wounds. A healer may only heal an injury that is on par or below his/her profesion level. Scrolls of healing wounds are required to get rid of a players injuries. The healer profession at level 2 is also required to be allowed into the Brotherhood of Virtue.

Locksmith
Players with the locksmith profession are vital to all those who find a chest or a casket after defeating a monster and also some closed precious Chests that can drop even a Cerrador. These items can not be opened without the assistance of a locksmith. Also, players inflicted with a ball and chain by their enemies would reaquire the assistance of a locksmith to have it speedily removed. 30 Locksmith master will be required if you with to join Broderhood of virtue path or none for Bringers of Evil.

Executioner
These are players whom you can hire to eliminate and injure your enemies. Note, executioners are not limited to attacking the other race, if your have a dispute with someone of your own race they are eligable for execution. This profession goes Hand-to-hand with Bringers of Evil.

Simply put, a player can only have
one extractive profession (Geologist, Herbologist or Fisherman)
one productive profession (Jeweler, Alchemist or Sorcerer)
one supplemtary profession (Healer, Locksmith or Executioner)

How you decide to mix and match these options is completely up to you.
That is, a player can choose to be
Herbologist, Jeweler and Executioner
Herbologist, Alchemist and Locksmith
Geologist only
Fisherman Sorcerer
and so on

A player cannot be
Geologist, Alchemist
Jeweler, Sorcerer
Locksmith, Executioner and Alchemist

Remember that supplemtary profession rarely provide a player with any real source of income, as a matter of fact, they can cost you a great deal of gold. They are expensive to develop and care should be taken in choosing one (if you decide to take one at all).


As for the second part of the question "Can i change my profession"

Yes.
When u decide upon a profession, you are not forced to keep that profession for the rest of your game life. You will be allowed to resign any profession if ever and whenever you deem it necessary. Professions can be resigned one by one without affecting the others that you currently have. You would not need to resign all the professions that you have if you wish to give up only one.

Resign:

To resign a profession, simply click on the professions icon (multi-colored circle)
You can access this by: Knight icon (character icon) => Multi-colored circle (profession icon)
Once you are in the professions display, you can select the appropriate tab for the profession you wish to resign.
On the lower left of the screen, under the profession information, you will see a resign profession button. Simply click it and confirm your action.

NOTE: When you resign a profession, you lose all the mastery points that you gained for that particular skill. When u choose a new profession you start back at skill level 0. If you wish to go back to your old profession (the one which you resigned before) you would again need to start over from skill level 0.

Save:

Various events and Bank shop offer scrolls to save your mastery. When you use them your mastry will get saved and then you can start over with new profession. Whenever you want to go back to the profession you saved previously you can simple use the saved skill scoll and all will be like before!

Saved Herbologist Skill
Saved Fisherman Skill
Saved Geologist Skill
Saved Alchemist Skill
Saved Mage Skill
Saved Jeweller Skill
Saved Healer Skill
Saved Locksmith Skill
Saved Executioner Skill

The category the three Supplementary professions (Healer, Losksmith, Executioner) are linked to the Brotherhood of Virtue and Bringers of Evil Reputations.

To join the Brotherhood of Virtue, you will need to be either a level 2 healer or a level 30 locksmith. Without either of these professions, you can not be initiated into the brotherhood.

You do not need to be an Executioner to become a Bringer of Evil, however, the reputation does help with your profession. You can be an executioner and still be a healer or a locksmith, however such a combination may be viewed as disadvantage/handicap to your professions true potential. Taking on the roll of an executioner and enlisting in the Bringers of Evil enhances your abilities as an executioner. The ability to hex your opponents, as well as the summons that are made available to those with sufficient reputation within the Bringers of Evil can go a long way in helping you achieve victory in battle while carrying out an execution.

Aside from this, you professions are simply a means of making some extra income or creating items for your own use in battle. With this said, some players have developed the theory that certain professions go hand in hand with certain fighting styles. And there is a short info for you:

Quoted

Why?
Because Bonecrushers will be creating for themselves Amulet of Destruction which fits for their combat style and will help them in fights.


Heavyweights:
Best Profession: FIsherman/Sorcerer

Why?
Because Heavyweights will be hreating for themselves Scroll of Rock Skin which fits for their combat style and will help them in fights.

Lets tackle the basic products first. Raw materials are converted directly into
stones (Geologist) => dust (Jeweler)
plants (Herbologist) => collected plants (Alchemist)
fish (Fisherman) => magic ink (Sorcerer)

In order to produce these products, you simply have to acquire the ricipe which teaches you how to convert the raw material into the product state that you desire.
These recipes can be found at:
Professions Icon at the vertical menu on the left screen side. Then on top you have 3 sub-menus (Selected Recipes, All Recipes, Available Recipes)

Available Recipes
At this tab you can purchase the recipes you wish to use.

NOTE: You should be aware that your profession has a level limit based on your character level:
Level 3 - limit 29
Level 4 - limit 59
Level 5 - limit 89
Level 6 - limit 119

And further on the count goes by 30 for each level.

The level limit restricts which raw materials you can extract as well as which items you can produce

Ok, so all of that has covered how your character learns to make items. To actually produce them you would need to

Why my mastery don't increase?

The probability of increasing your professional mastery depends on the difference between your mastery level and the minimal necessary mastery for extracting the resource. The greater your experience relative to the experience necessary for extracting the resource, the less is the probability of increasing your experience level.

What this simply means is, the closer your skill level is to the skill level required for extracting the resource, the greater the chance for your mastery to rise. The further away your skill level is from the skill level required to extract the resource, the lesser the chance of your mastery rising.

Example:
Resource +30 - Character Skill Level 30 <HIGH PROBABILITY>
Resource +30 - Character Skill Level 56 <LOW PROBABILITY>

Resource +90 - Character Skill Level 95 <HIGH PROBABILITY>
Resource +90 - Character Skill Level 116 <LOW PROBABILITY>

The same concept applies for productive (manufacturing) Professions as well as the locksmith profession.

Orange - very high probability of increasing your professional mastery;

Violet - high probability of increasing your professional mastery;

Blue - average probability of increasing your professional mastery;

Green - low probability of increasing your professional mastery;

Gray - very low probability of increasing your professional mastery;


Your professional mastery can only increase with a successfully completed action. In this case you will see the following notification: Your mastery has increased by +1

Essentially, the more mastery points you gain between a given mastery range, the harder it gets to achieving another until you cross over into the new range and start extracting new resources or producing new items.

Mastery Range:
0-29
30-59
60-89
90-119
120-149
And further on the count goes by 30 for each level.

Healer Mastery:

Even though in game chat it writes 07:26 You cast healing magic upon character ..., there's no magic involved. Healers have to BUY(these scrolls cannot be made by sorcerors) the scrolls from Professional or Healer's Shops and use them.

Healer level 1 - healing experience required.
Healer level 2 - 1000 healing experience required.
Healer level 3 - 2500 healing experience required.
Healer level 4 - 4500 healing experience required.
Healer level 5 - 7000 healing experience required.
Healer level 6 - 10000 healing experience required.
Healer level 7 - 13500 healing experience required.
Healer level 8 - 17500 healing experience required.
Healer level 9 and above available from Mage levels (11+)
Healer level 9 - 22000 healing experience required.
and so on.

Executioner Mastery:

The inures they inflict depend on their skill mastery.

Injury level 1 - Executioner mastery 1-19
Injury level 2 - Executioner mastery 19-40
Injury level 3 - Executioner mastery 41-61
Injury level 4 - Executioner mastery 61-91
Injury level 5 - Executioner mastery 91-114
