    At book X(6-7?) there was a continuous quest given to feed the fruit of the quickening to multiple professionals..

    so how about we have up to 3 dungeon groups constantly herding wounded animals, or caring them to the entrance of the dungeon and having a line of bellow lvl 10 dudes to kill the beast and get the exp, then just level their craft in any smart way until lvl 45? then go for profession quest.

    This should take no longer that a few days and every citizen will be over lvl 10(at least half already are over it.)
    Remaining few hundred might be lvl 6-9 so not a lot of exp needed. Perhaps most of them will not have the needed skill level to get the profession but at least lvl 10 will be reached.

    So we have a relatively easy way to get every vlger to lvl10 but how would we level special skill to lvl 45(not sure if this is true) ?

    In addition, for Chaos Seeds, would profession quests count their time on Earth?

    What I mean is would a professional blacksmith from Earth start with a higher level and have progress on the profession quests because of what he made on Earth, or does it only count work done in the Land?

    Would depend on whether the System had access to information on what occurred on Earth or can access the memories of Earthlings that enter The Land or the rest of the Universe that uses the System.

    Got to disagree on this. You need to have them get to skill level 45 first. The reasoning is Elora and her profession. She was effectively level 7 when she gained her profession. True she was level 16 but she had yet to allocate those points. So once she did, then she would get those talent points too apparently (not sure if the numbers actually worked out that way for Richtær).

    “It’s actually kind of lucky that you started your Trial when you did. If you had finished spending your level points before you came here, you would have been treated as if you were level twenty-eight rather than level twenty-one. Those extra Talent points you might have wasted will probably come in handy.

    So if the skill level 45 people can get multiple levels worth of XP, then they can get more TP. Also the specialty will probably come quicker. So what level of monster kill will they need to be apart of so that when a bunch of XP is sent to them they double level?

    Valid point!
    so how what is the fastest way to level ur skills to level 45?!
    work in the dungeon as a crafter?! train..

    • Having profession relevant buildings
    • Having ingredients and rare items for crafting
    • Professional trainers, Richto could hire at least 20 or so for a years time
    • trade, if u make something then sell it .. that should help

    For soldiers/warriors you have the way of it. He got a nice building with 6) Training in a Barracks increases acquisition of Martial skills by +30% (cumulative with trainer bonus). So they are the highest single ground that will be going toward a profession. All they need are trainers.

    The next largest groups are the construction skill people, smithing skill people, the Alchemist people, and the clothes washer skill people, herbalist people.

    • Construction: construction tech for faster building and new prints for new buildings. Upgrade the workshop for construction skill bonuses.
    • Smithing: Alloy research, decrease production time techA
    • Alchemist: more herbs?
    • Washer woman: dedicated building?trainer?
    • Herbalist: more time and freedom to collect herbs. These people need some help. They need to be able to range afar but there are big bears. But on a good note, nearly all of them are also special units for the barracks, and might not need to worry about the Herb profession if they can't level it up fast enough or are already approaching level 20.

    Maybe, but would you rather have a skill lvl 100 washer or skill 22ish crossbowman?

    Watch out for the washer talents. The washer can clean a blood and gore covered outfit with just looking. Boosting both moral and fighting spirit

    Skill level 100 washer definitely. A Master washer would be able to replace dozens of others freeing them for other tasks or military training. Probably has an ability to clean out any stains as well and retain colors, so ideal for handling expensive clothes that might be damaged. The effect on health and morale is likely to also be significant.

    The level 100 washer would also probably give extra boosts to hygiene, and keep clothes from wearing out so save opportunity cost of having to make and buy new clothing.

    Since it is a game logic world (at least partially), a master wash might be able to give clothes a temp buff that repels dirt and other cloth ruining substances like acid. Of course it would effect only the clothes but...

    The washing profession probably has talents that provide buffs for anyone wearing clothes they wash because of how soft and comfy they make the clothes.

    I bet they gain a similar skill power to the zootomy skill adepts/masters where the Cleaning (the skill Tifini professed in, launder was just a talent that expedited the washing) proffessional can just have the dirt and grime remove itself without actually washing and what not.

    Maybe some sort of aura with a slight expenditure of mana so they can clean things by walking past them.

    That would be incredible. The amount of time spent taking care of clothes before the invention of the washing machine was ridiculous.

    You'd be surprised how little they cared about that kind of thing in the middle ages.

    Right? Maybe reserved for masters, and maybe they need some other skills or specific certain talents to flavor the cleaning aura for certain jobs. I'm thinking like Scribing for organizing office papers / arranging book shelves (not as good as the association talent the scribes have just literally putting papers in order so they aren't spread out), or Herb Lore for de-weeding sidewalks or some such.

    It would be super useful in combat too. Having blood/ gore just sluice off your armor and clothes would be great. Would also avoid that bit in book 6 when he was saving prisoners looking like some macabre nightmare. Maybe even a hit to enemy moral as you cut through their lines looking fresh as hell.
