Ok some info regarding crafting and gathering for the newbies:
Gathering:
You can learn all the gathering skills in any of the resource areas (Lacheish, Poitain and Purple Lotus). These include skills such as Mining, Prospecting, Woodcutting, Stonecutting etc.
Tier 1 Gathering can be learnt at level 20
Tier 2 Gathering can be learnt at level 50
Tier 3?-Not quite sure if there is a tier 3 as yet.
Crafting:
-Crafting can be learnt at level 40.
-It seems that you can choose 2 professions (Be careful though, I would advise atm to stick to 1 profession as nobody is really sure if it's a glitch). The first profession you choose is your main and cannot be changed. The second however, is your sub and can be changed. The only class exempt from this atm are people who choose Architect as their main, nobody knows atm if this is a bug or intended.
