Thread: Can I Drop Artisan?
According to the skills tool I downloaded, I don't need all the artisan skills once I'm an Armorsmith. I don't particularly want the surveying skills and would love the skill points back. Can I drop them, or will I lose armorsmith if I did so?
Thanks for any help.
However, it is often useful to have a few of those skills.
Specifically Business 3 so you can have a vendor... unless you just use the bazaar and/or sell in town.
You can make good cases for needing all of artisan... everytime I try to talk myself into dropping it, I find another reason I need it.

So in that case... my artisan can be 4 only, 0, 4 only, 1-4... since i'm a merchant too?
If you are Shiwpright and Merchant you must be at least Artisan 4040. You cannot drop the Enginnering line since it's a prerequisite for SW and you cannot drop the Businees line because is a prerequisite for Merchant.

I was talking to someone the other day and this subject came up. He told me that every box in artisan helps with the assembly. Not sure if that's true, anyone know?
Not true. Artisan skills only affect artisan related schematics.
All of the skills for a shipwright come from the shipwright boxes.
And Cottus: Yes, if you have any Merchant skills, you must also keep that Artisan branch at 4.
I don't understand why you would want to. Engineering IV is a requirement for Novice Shipwright. Business is a must if you have any intent of selling your wares. Surveying is quinessential for gathering resources.
Of course, you can always have alts or friends sell your wares and survey for resources.
