A Tradeskill is a "trade" that a player can learn and use to create items in the game and gain other benefits. Tradeskills are similar to hobbies, however only two tradeskills may be acquired at a time.

Description

There are 5 levels of Tradeskill expertise, as well as 5 levels of Harvesting Tools. These levels are Novice, Apprentice, Journeyman, Artisan, and Expert. Salvaging starts at level 6, and this allows you to salvage armor and weapons for materials. There is also a chance of a Salvage Critical, which can drop rarer materials.

Crafting will require a crafting table, normally located at a Tradeskill Hub. Crafting tables can also be added to your housing plot. The current way is to place a BBQ pit into an unused landscape socket. The BBQ pit works because you can use any cooking table or any crafting table to do either a tradeskill or a hobby, and the BBQ pit is a cooking table. You will be able to change Tradeskills for a respec fee. Skills previously learned will not be lost, but there is a cooldown period if you wish to swap back to a previous tradeskill.
