Guild Wars 2

So i decided to start working on leatherwork, on my Ranger who is a Norn. Honestly i don’t know anything about gw Lore, but i like to read a few things from time to time and I find them interesting, and was just wondering… if i wanted to match the different disciplines with Races and/or professions, is there some ways that it would make more sense, lore-wise, than randomly learn a discipline with any character?

I know this wouldn’t affect the crafting discipline at all, im merely curious

Much like real life, there’s no strict rules. Each race can operate more or less independently from the others, necessitating every discipline be present in some form.

Whilst it’s not hugely lore based, an easy assumption would probably be matching weapon/armour crafting with the professions that use the tools. For example, Huntsman are probably more likely to be Rangers or Engineers, as they use the products of the disciplines.

Just remember, it’s equally likely that adventurers wouldn’t have a crafting discipline at all, or just basic skills. Someone who devotes their life to crafting is more likely to produce better quality weapons then those who do it as a hobby, simply due to practice.

Hope that helps.
