Changing second profession? - Guild Wars Forums

I heard it was possible to change your second profession. If you can change it, where do you? And what's a common second profession for a Ranger?

You'll get a quest at Droknar's Forge called "Hero's Journey" that will take you back to the crystal desert to find some new towns. At those towns, you'll get quests that will let you change your class after you finish the quest.

As for a common Ranger secondary, I think Monk and Necro is rather common, but Rangers are such Jacks of All Trades it doesn't matter what you take. Rangers are good no matter what.

Keep in mind those quests aren't available until after you ascend...

Thanks a lot. I'm currently a R/Mo. I guess I'll stay that way for now. Also, can you change your second profession more than once? Let's say I decided to switch to R/E, and wanted to switch back to R/Mo, then decided to switch back to R/E. Can I switch to different professions more than once even if I've been it before? Thanks.

Thanks for the information; I???m looking at changing my W/Mo into a W/R.

Is obtaining the skills for your new second profession as simple as going back to skill traders and buying new ones?

VGJustice · Aug 24, 2005, 04:31 AM // 04:31

Yes to both of you.

Your skills that you have unlocked, through purchase, capture, and quests, will always be "on the back burner" no matter how many times you change your profession.

DO NOT purchase any skills until you have returned to Ascalon, Yak's, Serenity Temple, and Sardelac Sanitarium--those secondary profession quests will show up for you now. Do them for skills that you won't have to waste skill points on.

Do you loose your skills from the first second prof?

Furious Soldier · Aug 26, 2005, 08:45 PM // 20:45

i mean the unlocks

Yes, you do, but it is only access to PvP characters to whatever class it was, will be kept. By the way, don't double post, just edit.
