Thread: what job to take, weapon smith or woodsman???

both weaponsmith and woodsman craft bows so which way should i go???? and another thing on my first toon I have a half opened training crate the wont competeiy open Any have that happen?

If your main interest is making bows, the woodsman vocation includes forester so you can supply mats for woodworking.

thanks i wasnt thinking about the mats..............

If you plan to play only one character, bows are your primary objective, and you don't have access to planks from friends or kinmates, ddave is correct: go with Woodsman.

On the other hand, if you plan to have a few crafting alts, I highly recommend making your first character an explorer. An explorer can gather and process ore, wood, and leather. An explorer can as well make light and medium armour. You can only carry one bow -- but you'll need six pieces of armour plus a cape!

For an avid crafter, there is nothing worse than being unable to progress in crafting for want of basic resources.

Create an Alt for each of the crafting professions.

Level each alt up in their respective Craft Guilds.

Now you can craft anything you want/need for your main or any other character without depending on other players.

Problem solved! :-)
