Profession notes for the crafted tools, material flow, and choices that fit this class's leveling route.
Mining and Blacksmithing keep Warrior and Paladin weapon damage close to the level band.
Mine bars on the route, smelt them in town, and build the two-hander before Warrior damage falls behind the zone. A current weapon shortens fights and reduces the time a patrol can join. Engineering covers a widened pull. Blacksmithing covers the weapon gap.
Food restores health between pulls, provides buffs at higher levels, and keeps a Hunter pet fed.
Warrior has no self-heal. A fight ending at 70% HP needs a recovery pause before the next pull. Cooking turns that pause into an 18-second reset while you loot.
Bombs, Target Dummies, and Sapper Charges add a stun, threat handoff, and area damage when a pull widens.
Warrior starts in melee and has few ways to create space. Iron Grenade pauses the pull, and Target Dummy can buy a reset. Mining plus Engineering supplies the bombs from the same cave routes where they are useful.
Class profession defaults, alternatives, and the tools each package adds to a difficult route.
Default: Mining plus Engineering. Iron Grenade and Target Dummy cover runners, doubles, and cave pulls. Alternate: Herbalism plus Alchemy for a patient duo or sustain-focused route. Blacksmithing can solve the weapon gap once bags, gold, and ore are stable.
