Artisans

Artisan professions in Ashes of Creation are split into three distinct categories which are Gathering, Processing, and Crafting. Crafters will be able to assign different skills, abilities, and stats on gear. Not every crafter can master everything so as a result a player must choose a path within the artisan skill tree for each of the three paths and may only ever master one of these paths on their character.
