Grand Forester Garran
The master hands you the first tool free. The five above it are bought, and a tool only unlocks its own tier: owning the tier five tool does nothing for tier two work.
- T1 Bronze Axe level 1
- T2 Iron Axe level 15
- T3 Steel Axe level 30
- T4 Tectonite Axe level 45
- T5 Lunarite Axe level 60
- T6 Solarite Axe level 75
The six tiers
Each tier needs both the level and the tool that belongs to it. Times are the base interval, before mastery takes up to a quarter off.

| Fell Ash Tree | Ash Log | 8 | 4.0s |

Underneath the level
Every action carries its own mastery track, one to ninety-nine, separate from the skill. Mastery is per action: mastering copper does nothing for iron. At ninety-nine a single action runs up to 25% faster, pays up to 10% bonus skill experience, and has up to a 20% chance of an extra yield.
How professions work covers the experience curve, the tier gates and offline progress, which are identical for all sixteen.
