Level cap
The modern Season 1 research baseline establishes:
- Profession Level cap = 40 during Season 1.
Later-season profession levels must remain quarantined from the S1 guide.
Engineer — who it fits
Engineer is the default recommendation when the player's priority is:
- faster development;
- more efficient seasonal-resource use;
- more stamina/resource utility;
- construction/research/economy acceleration;
- reaching key seasonal progression gates earlier.
Do not phrase this as “everyone must choose Engineer.”
A heavy PvP/leadership player can rationally choose War Leader when combat utility creates more value than growth speed.
Free reset at Profession Lv10 — current client
The actionable registry identifies a high-confidence current S1 rule:

Player implication
Do not be afraid that the earliest points permanently lock the account. The Lv10 reset creates an early correction opportunity.
Any later reset/change items should still be documented from their own current rules rather than inferred from Season 2.
Profession EXP — safe sources
The current evidence set supports Profession EXP from Season progression activities, especially:
- upgrading seasonal buildings;
- defeating relevant seasonal monsters;
- territory/capture progression where the event awards it;
- season activities/rewards;
- weather/event modifiers where explicitly active.
Sunny weather
Captured official modern S1 weather guidance:
- Sunny: +30% base Profession EXP from monster kills.
This is actionable enough for a “What should I do during Sunny?” card:
If you have stamina and useful seasonal monsters available, Sunny is a strong Profession EXP farming window.
Profession EXP optimization logic
Early Season
- Favor actions that advance both season progression + Profession EXP.
- Seasonal-building upgrades are valuable because they improve the progression engine while also contributing profession growth.
- Use Sunny monster windows efficiently.
Mid Season
- Do not spend resources purely for Profession EXP if the underlying seasonal upgrade has little account/battle value.
- Coordinate Stronghold/City activity with progression goals.
Late Season
- Check whether Profession Lv40 is already reached.
- If capped, stop treating Profession EXP as a reason by itself to spend scarce seasonal resources.
- Evaluate settlement conversions separately from active-season utility.
