How many players have 2nd/3rd professions?

Postby PioPico » Thu Dec 02, 2010 11:15 am

Based on what you have heard from players within your guild or around your faction's capital, how many people do you think have second or third professions? Is it becoming more common that players have a second profession or do most people comfortably have one profession?

I think it is becoming more common for at least a 2nd profession on people as the game advances. This has been helped immensely by the exp scrolls speeding what is essentially worse than the wandering alchemist quest.

Maybe you could influence the higher aboves to increase the rep reward? ;)

Personally, I am so very close to getting my 2nd profession. I hate you refined mithril strips but not as much as I hate limestone!

Yeah, exp scrolls make the effort to obtain a 2nd profession somewhat worth it. Back in the day when I couldn't play at all, I'd buy all the wilted arnicas I could, pop an exp scroll and just do the daily and logout and again and again, until I run out of herbs, that's how I got the 2nd profession.

More and more people start getting it, 2nd, also due to the addition of the artisan permit in the CS, some just buy it from there.

I am Herbalist + Leatherworker
My brother is Alchemist + Disassembler

We combo with each other.

Most players are comfortable with one profession which is alchemy or herbalism. Because leatherworking, blacksmithing, tailoring all three are really really hard compared to alchemy. With latest patch mobs 5 level below than u not dropping any loot made it more difficult than ever. To me these 3 are waste of time effort and gold.
Yet i am leveling up leatherworking because i have nothing else to do. LOL.

I opted for 3 :)

  • Disassembler
  • Tailor
  • Leatherworker

It is a very usable combo. Disassemble item, use pieces to make an item, disassemble that, make an item from the pieces.... .. repeat.

Complimentary leveling of skill :)

I know a lot of herbalist alchemists. As the game progresses, there are more people who have had time to do the rep grinds for the free 2nd profession. The XP scrolls really help that.

Also, I know a few people who opted to buy the 2nd and 3rd profession from the CS, and who use the equipment refiners to make gear.

All in all, a lot more professions out there than there used to be.

Since the artisan is on CS more people are getting second profession

Herbalism+Alchemy seems to be the most used
