# Professions There will be a wide variety of professions to choose from and level up. These include crafting professions such as Cooking, Alchemy, Engineering and Forging, or gathering professions like Botany, Mining, Scavanging, and more. For many Players, professions will be necessary to progress in the game or to trade your way into gear upgrades, enchantments, and other cool items. We have also planned a passive way to earn gathering materials while offline to help discourage bots and farmers. Professions will be a big part of the game’s economy in terms of crafting items players can use in-game and outside of battles. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
