Within the prof elemental, there are four different profs, Pyromancers - fire users, Aeromencers - air users, hydromancers - water users, and geomancers - earth users. Are there names for different types of professions within the other professions?

I think people have just applied the names to the specialized path they've gone down with their particular build as elementalists. I suppose I could apply names for the other classes:

Mesmer
Dominist (is that even a word?)
Illusionist
Enchanter (for inspiration I suppose)
Monk
Healer
Protector
Smiter
Necromancer
Cultist (Blood Magic)
Witch Doctor (Curses)
Ritualist (Death Magic)
Ranger
Hunter (Marksmanship)
Beast Master
Woodsman (for wilderness survival)
Warrior
Swordsman
Axeman
"The Hammer" - What do you call someone that wields a hammer?
Some of the names follow some of the mob names I've seen out there. For example, Charr Hunters appear to specialize higher in marksmanship than in wilderness survival. I'm pretty sure Claude (the necromancer henchman) uses blood magic because he casts blood ritual a lot.

Dunno, I usually see the elementalists using their terminology. A smiting monk might not be in high demand though. I think I'd rather have them have points in healing prayers and divine favor and put the rest in protection prayers, personally.

Dominist isn't a word, but Dominator is.

Yeah was gonna go down that path but realized it would be Dominatrix for a female and that might, erm, carry the wrong connotations.
