Specialty and professional masterwork
An earned long-form path with explicit gates and records.
Prerequisites: pick one profession and earn its levels through ordinary work. This is an extended progression test. A masterwork is not reachable merely by opening the form, and analytical high-level fixtures do not prove this player journey is balanced.
Step by step
Tick a step after observing the expected result. Saved on this device only.
01Read your career record
In Character & builds find your profession and choose Career record; in /play → Work choose Study career with the skill.
The response shows level, all three objectives, actual recorded best results and masterwork requirements.
02Earn the first specialization gate
Continue actual professional batches until that profession reaches level 15. Choose Specialty, inspect its three options and select one.
Below level 15 it is refused. At level 15 the selected index is saved and its effect appears in subsequent work.
03Test a deliberate specialty change
After obtaining two research notes through legitimate production or player exchange, change to a different specialty while idle.
The change consumes two notes. Re-selecting the same specialty must not repeatedly charge retraining.
04Build the masterwork evidence
Reach profession level 30 and successfully record at least quality 75 in each of its three professional objectives. Review the career record after every new best.
The record names actual completed expert batches. Failed or low-quality attempts do not masquerade as qualifying evidence.
05Commit the masterwork
Carry two research notes plus the selected profession’s real tool and work inputs, and visit a valid working region. Choose Masterwork and complete the expert decisions.
The attempt consumes the documented design inputs and uses the normal activity boundary. A successful result requires quality at least 80.
06Check the attestation
After successful settlement inspect the actual masterwork item, title and career record. Try to claim the first masterwork again.
One attested first masterwork is recorded. A second attempt cannot duplicate its special item or title. Record the earned route and friction even if a prerequisite remains blocked.
