To learn new Jobs in Forsaken World you need Job Points. You get these by following main quests and at a certain point you get one Job point as quest reward. You will get a total of 6 Job points as you level up.
Your first three Job points come from talking to Alberti the Job Tutor. He will give you a quest which rewards 2 Job Points. You will need to answer correctly to 2 questions he makes in order to get the third Job point. The correct answers are always the bottom choices. The next Job point you get at level 20 after following the main quests until General Sutherland sends you to talk to Marrick in order to reach another map zone (Sea of Oblivion).
You can spend these Job points in the professions recommended by the New Player tutorial (Botany, Cooking and Alchemy), completing the quests the Rosemason gives you. But you can ignore them and save the Job points for other professions. If you are indeed a new player, such as me, I honestly recommend sticking to these professions. They give you the basic consumables you will need to keep leveling.
There's an excelent
Guide for professions on the Forsaken World Forums, made by cashholder11. I really recommend checking this out.
You can learn Botany, Cooking and Alchemy from the Tutors at Freedom Harbor's Craftsman Fair (check picture for location on the map).
Gathering Job: Botany and FishingBotany is a simple farming Job. You will walk around the world and collect plants. These are a good source of Player Money if you sell them at the Auctioneer. So, if you are a noob like me, don't forget to gather those plants once you come across them. Use some to get experience in alchemy, if you wish to keep/learn that profession and sell the rest at the Auction House.
Unlike World of Warcraft, where fishing was quite boring and demanded your full attention, in Forsaken World you can just go to a fishing zone and click the fishing skill. Just sit back and watch your character fish wonderful things. But there is a catch, of course. Each fishing will cost you Energy, so you can't just fish forever.
Crafting Jobs: Alchemy and CookingThese are your professions for creating consumables: potions, food and drinks. Alchemy makes potions which you can use during combat, such as mana or health restoration. Cooking makes things to restore mana or health outside of combat. At the first levels I recomend using the mana and health 50.000 restore potions you receive on your first 5 levels. These will despawn after just 1 week and I doubt you'll be going through them under that time unless you are a really hardcore player. Still, you should get familiar with crafting potions and food for your later leveling since you will need a certain Job Level to learn some recipes. In order for you to avoid some crafting pain later on I really recommend that you keep doing some crafting while leveling so you don't fall back too much.
Vigor and EnergyVigor is used to make things, so it's a vital part for all crafting Jobs in Forsaken World. Once you access the crafting window of one of your crafting professions, which you can access by clicking on your Job icon on the top-right of your screen and clicking on the crafting profession button you wish, you can start doing any of those recipes you have. For each one you spend ONE vigor point. You will be limited daily by the amount of vigor you have and how fast you can get it.
Energy, is used for gathering professions: fishing, botany, mining. You consume 1 energy for every plant you collect or every time you hook your fishing pole. You can get more than one item each time you collect a plant, though.
Since you restore vigor/energy at a rate of 12 per hour while playing and 3 per hour while offline (with a limit of 8 hours offline), you will restore at least +24 vigor/energy up to +264 per day (if you played 24 hours, of course). So far I haven't seen an automatic logout mechanism, so there's nothing preventing you from leaving the game open while online and restore your vigor/energy to full in just a few hours.
I've read that there's also the possibility of vigor/energy restoration potions, but I haven't been able to encounter these yet.
Happy crafting and gathering!
So here is how it works. When you open your Pet Panel, if your pet is recalled, you can click on a new button located on the pet frame of each of your pets (in the picture, this is marked with a number 2). You can only send out one of your pets into journeys. This means there's no profit in being a Tamer.
Pierre Dannika for example, which is right next to Rio. There is a catch though, which I only found out after reaching Socialite Rank 3: you need to have thirty social contribution to learn each one. That's right... social contribution. I thought I had to volunteer at the hobo Christmas dinner or something but no. There is only two ways to obtain social contribution and that's:
You can check your social contribution points by opening you character pane, then opening the Reputation pane, clicking the Personal tab and checking the Contribution value. Hovering the mouse over the Contribution gives you some help on how to get more of it and how to use it.
