Now, soon, im to choose between the first class change, and i dont know what to choose. To be a tradeskiller and later get pets, or, to spoil?
Is i right in assuming, it seems noone want crafters, even guilds? and dwarfs who can spoil is popular? but for castle sieges those pets is usefull?
>.< hard to choose.
There is definitely a place for crafters. Warsmith's ability to summon golems is also a nice advantage in certain situations. I hear that it can be fairly tough to get into parties as a loner Warsmith, joining a good Clan should fix that problem however.
Personally I chose BH and was pretty happy with it. I did discover that it eventually became near impossible to solo efficiently. It's pretty easy to get into a party with a BH but to do so most of the time you have to give up the reason you chose a spoiler class in the first place, as in sharing the spoils with classes geared towars combat. Again joining a good Clan is a nice move, since you at least know the people that will be benefitting from your spoils.
You can make a profit with both classes. With a BH it's about finding the right mobs to spoil depending on what people want in the market at the time. With a Warsmith it's about playing the market and knowing the right people to turn a profit from.
A lot of people have their own warsmith, but for clans that are active on the siege field, a warsmith is very valuable.
So are bounty hunters. Especially at high levels (same for both classes) as they can spoil some very nice things such as enchants and key mats.

You'd be surprised to know the first person to need a crafter is yourself. You'll be able to craft your own shots, and trust me, this will save you TONS of adena.
On the other hand, you can always make TONS of adena by selling shots also.
So here is what you do. Make your first dwarf to hit lvl 20 an artisan (crafter). This way, you can craft your own shots right away, and you'll want to park this char and use it only when needed.
Then you roll yourself another dwarf and quickly level it to 20 (use the other dwarf's gear). Make the second dwarf a spoiler, and then start picking up mats to make a D grade weapon.
After that, you basically play the style you enjoy the most. You'll always enjoy your dwarf artisan, it's a good support char, you'll use it to supply all your chars.

Bounty Hunters are gimp, I know, I have one (but they are **** cute). Neither a BH or WS makes exceptionally more adena than any other character, so you are best making whichever sounds the most fun. Neither will get many groups, neither can do much harm in PvP (WS is better at this though). Warsmiths can solo to some degree though, which could be the deciding factor, if I were rolling a new one.
Why have to choose? Make both! :) My main is a 70+ prophet but I have a WS 50+ that makes all of our shots (soon A shots), arrows and some gear and she crafts gear shots and mats for friends/alliance. She's a lot of fun :D I have a 2nd crafter on the way up too, for higher level armor/weapon/jewelry crafting believe it or not lol :P Fishing helps to expand the craft slots but its never enough :/
I also have several spoilers ranging from lvl 15 to 42ish (this one would be over 50 but I delevel her a lot depending on what we are spoiling for :) I use them all for spoiling and seeding (and selling lol) and it works out great :)
It's all about fun, just play what you feel like :) I also have a necro, se and soon to be overlord just for fun :D
I was gonna say the exact opposite. Make Neither! Choose something else, as you'll probably hate going throught this later on.
Ps: By the way, I do have a descent level Bounty Hunter. Oh boy, talk about a waiste of about 2 months of my life that I'll never be able to recover. :eek:
Let me tell you the advantages and disadvantages of each class so you can make a decision.
Bounty hunter:
If your willing to share spoils you will be wanted in groups. If your a gready *** you won't get inveted often.
You can make more money then a Warsmith off of fake death. If your willing to grief for money. Farmers are the best targets.
Can use a polarm for fast leveling with an SE partner. Spoil festival can help make it very profitable. Polarms also have the most efficient SS use.
They lack summons.
Warsmith:
Can make money but it's a lot of work. You have to hunt recipes and parts to make SS. Jewelry dropping mobs in catas and necro's are best.
No fake death so no grief skills. Stun is not effective for griefing.
Summons are good. A little costly but you can afford them. You have one of the most important roles in siege.
Polarm is also the best way to go. MP isn't a worry while hunting so you can use skills or craft while hunting.
Forget craft shops, not very profitable. You will need to craft and sell or crush to make money.
