I have seen Ranger. Possibly hunter? Archer? Maybe something we have not seen yet to do with being a Meidon Sprite?
More likely a Ranger/Archer that involves Magic in some way, but I also suspect that he will also (when able) go for a Mage Class of some type later on.
It should just be Ranger, I think it's a pretty broad profession. Professions are pretty specific to just the core skills (in Sion's case Archery). Like anyone in magic skills gets Mage. His specialization should be pretty epic though given the possibility of flavor from his other available skills (air magic, Imbue, enhanced Imbue, alchemy and herb lore) Whatever he does, he should go to trial a week from his 8 level windfall. Then he can just bank those tps until he reaches level 30 to get some really good specialization talents
It is and it isn't. Professions aren't all that different, but that's okay since they're the standard paths to power. Then specializations come along and make you stand out a bit in your area of expertise. I think we just need lower expectations for the initial professions, as our only real in depth view of one is colored by Richter who ended up getting a specialization like a week later.
As far as specializations go, I'm guessing Sion will have an option for Bombardier or something due to Imbue Arrow
