Acquiring Skills for Changed Secondary Profession? - Guild Wars Forums

I was under the impression that if you changed your secondary prof, you could redo any skill quests you had already completed to fill out skills for the new prof. Is this incorrect? I recently changed my newly-ascended W/Mo to a W/E, and while I was able to find the Elementalist-only skill quests, I'm unable to repeat any quests I've already done for new skills.

It's just the profession-specific quests you can return to and complete by changing your secondary profession late in the game. I don't think there are any repeatable quests in Prophecies.

i was W/Mo, then i changed to W/N, i got the Disenchantment Course from Ng.. and i was level 20.

So how should I be acquiring skills? Buying them from trainers? Are all the skills I would have gotten from quests available from trainers?

If you change your secondary, you can do the quests specific to your new secondary, but the general skill quests are done. If you can't fnd a skill, try Dakk at ember light camp or Zenaida at harvest temple. they have all the skills for their respective campaigns.

yeah listen to deathlord lol hes got the right idea youre gonna have to just buy the skills. thats the downfall of changing profs. cause usually your skill charges are up to 1k by the time you switch. damn i was broke after i changed from W/R to W/Mo.

Yeah I know, still dont have all of them either. Generally not worth swapping unless your rich.

Are you tyrian or canthan born? Tyrian born characters can change their professions and do SOME of the skill giving quests in tyria (because catha doesn't have any). You can do the ones from Yak's Bend, Sardelac Sanitarium (or its environs depending on the profession, Ranger for example, isn't in town it is outside near the statue of Balthazar), and Serenity Temple.

Canthan born charas do get some new free skills from Instructor Ng at Shing Jea Monastary after changing secondary. Not guaranteed, but usually there is a new course available, be it "Snaring Course"/"Disenchantment Course" etc etc, the new secondary might unlock one of those. Of course it's just a skill or two, but...
