Trade & Survival Skills

Tradeskills

The cities of Telara are alive with the din of trade. Roaring furnaces, whirring looms, and ringing anvils are telltale signs of Ascended making (and sometimes breaking) equipment, runes, potions, and more. Finding your place in the bustling economy is as easy as picking your craft(s): will you gather raw materials and sell to other Ascended, craft rare arms and armor, or a mix of both?

Gathering Skills

The world’s riches are yours to harvest, catch, pluck, and mine. Collect raw materials for the type of crafting you’d like to do, or focus solely on gathering and sell your finds for profit!

Butchering
Recover and work with hides, leathers, meats, and more (and be popular with Outfitters and cooks).
Supports: Outfitter, Armorsmith, and Apothecary

Fishing
Cast and reel from Silverwood to Seratos. The better your spot and lure, the better the catch!
Supports: Survival

Foraging
The trade in herbs and lumber has never been richer – gather both, refine planks, and use or sell to the highest bidder.
Supports: Apothecary, Artificer, Weaponsmith

Mining
Harvest sparkling ore and gems used in the construction of armor, weapons, and magical devices.
Supports: Armorsmith, Weaponsmith, Artificer

Crafting Skills

Whether smithing elemental power into a blade, weaving brilliance into a robe, or binding magic to runes and potions, you can use the fruits of your labor or sell them to finance even greater adventures.
