Profession · Road

Areas and stages

Each area of the profession on the craft tree can be revealed once you have earned enough craft XP in the profession. Your profession stage is the highest stage among the areas you have reached.

Craft XP Stage Area Lore
86 1 5 Dusty burial chambers hide more than bones. A relic seeker's eye picks out one more trinket, and the finer pieces glint brighter in the gloom.
306 2 1 Grave goods are scattered in the crypts for those with patience. A careful delver leaves with a heavier sack than most.
908 3 7 Behind a loose stone or under a rotting shield, another treasure waits. Deep delvers rarely leave a crypt with just one find. The barrows give more to those who search every corner. Coin and amber pile higher in the sack of a patient seeker.
1,535 4 3 Old chests in sunken crypts are heavier than they look. Those who know the dead's habits find them packed full to the lid.
2,681 5 4 Jarls were buried with their finest treasures. Delvers who read the old marks pull richer and rarer relics from every chest and corner.
3,726 6 2 A torch in a cold tomb is a hearth of its own. Its light chases away fear and grants rest, even among the restless dead.
4,969 7 6 Deep below the earth, the lantern is life. Old delvers' torches burned brighter and lasted much longer than the dark could wait. In the deepest vaults, treasures lie in heaps beneath the dust. The seeker who reaches this far leaves with a heavier pack. Pitch-soaked rags and a well-trimmed wick. The delver's light reaches further into the dark and refuses to go out.
