A Question Looking for an Answer

Ok, today i made a new assassin and was in the Factions Noob Island. I noticed a lvl 1 Ranger with elite druid armor and 2 professions. im wondering how this is possible because, getting a second profession gives you the xp to get to lvl 3. And in Gunnar's, i saw a lvl 20 Ele, with only 1 profession. Anyone wanna explain to me how this is possible please?

The ranger used the old gh glitch that unlocked all outposts im pretty sure and the ele got EoTn from tyria or nf by getting to lvl 10 and never doing the 2nd prof quests

Yeah, the ranger must have gotten around from the Guild Hall mapping exploit, which has been fixed for a while now. The ele with no second profession is something you can still do, by starting in Nightfall (and ONLY nightfall), then getting a ferry in Kamadam to the Consulate Docks, and then a ferry to LA, or KC and doing whatever til you're level 20 (this is also one of the fastest ways to get the survivor titles).

oh ok, i was all confused and wondering on how they did it for a few hours. Ty for the answers

Not a Factions character, that much is guaranteed -- just entering the monastery gets you to level 2. Also not a Nightfall character, second profession can't be chosen until level 5.

The quests to get a secondary profession in Prophecies don't have level requirements -- I've entered the academy with a level 1 character. In my case my character got to level 2 before getting to post, but I also wasn't specifically avoiding experience.

Then, of course, it's just a matter of getting a run to the outpost with the armor you want.

Edit:
Just for amusement, I made a ranger in Prophecies. Took the first two quests in town (Message from a Friend and War Preparations), then took the Ranger Test just outside. I killed the skale queen, but I could have had someone else do that to avoid the XP. I went back into town after accepting the quest reward, and grabbed my other account for killing the bull. Quest from Lady Althea, other account killed the bull, then back into town -- talked to Sir Tydus (avoiding Armin Saberlin and the quest for a secondary profession) and headed through the academy. Careful flagging of the henchmen allowed me to hang back and get no experience from the grawl or Vatlaaw Doomtooth, and poof, post-searing at level one, with 875 more XP before level two. No guild hall glitch needed.



It took me about a half hour to do, but that's including the time I took to make and eat lunch.
