A player doing occupations can gain certain rewards from them. The most important rewards are special items that massively increase your regeneration for a short time but can only be used outside of combat. However, doing occupations also earns you small amounts of dapper, and can give you items that help with the occupations themselves as well as a special teleport pact.
Contents
Dapper
You can earn dappers whenever you complete a task from the component gathering mission: The "To New Horizons" transporters may accept the basic occupation products to help the service maintenance. The amount of money you get depends on your fame regarding te transporter's nation; additionally, they may also reward your gift with nation points and extra fame. Have a look to the To New Horizons transporters' page for more details.
Note: you can practice your occupations at all levels below your actual level. For example, an homin with a level 3 occupation can practice level 1, level 2 and level 3 occupation every day.
Products
The products are the main reason for doing occupations. Every occupation has its own unique products. Of the 8 occupations ingame, 7 of these produce items that enhance certain regenerations, and the last one produces items that increase your success chance in crafting.
For every grade you have in an occupation, you can create these products once every 20 hours, provided you have the required components. How good the products you create are depends on the grade. How many of them you create depends on the recipe you use, better recipes give a higher yield, which gives more items. The following table shows how many items are produced for each possible yield.
| Yield | 30% 33% 37% | 40% 43% 47% | 50% 53% 57% | 60% 63% 67% | 70% 73% 77% | 80% 83% 87% | 90% 93% 97% | 100% |
| Products created (basic) | 3 | 6 | 6 | 9 | 9 | 12 | 15 | 18 |
| Products created (improved) | 4 | 8 | 8 | 12 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 |
Re-use time
All items created with occupations have a re-use time. This re-use time is the time that must pass after using the item before you can use another occupation item, including items created by another occupation. Thus you cannot use items of different occupations together.
Also, higher grade occupation items give a better bonus, but also have a longer re-use time. So using the highest grade item is not always the best choice.
Comparison with flowers
Some outposts produce flowers that also aid regeneration. The difference between these flowers and the items created with occupations, is that the flowers give a very small bonus to regeneration that lasts for a full hour, while the occupation products give a huge bonus to regeneration that only lasts 10 seconds.
Butcher
Butchers produce meat, which increases your metabolism and thus your life regeneration for 10 seconds.
However it also gives a penalty to your strength during those 10 seconds, thus leaving you drained of your stamina.
| Grade | Name | Metabolism | = Life Regen | Strength* | Use time | Re-use time |
| Basic 1 | Leg of Yubo (Q10) | +400 | +160 (+320 sitting) | -100 | 1 second | 20 seconds |
| Basic 2 / Improved 1 | Bodoc Steak (Q20) | +900 | +360 (+720 sitting) | -500 | 2 seconds | 70 seconds |
| Basic 3 / Improved 2 | Giblet of Arma (Q30) | +1500 | +600 (+1200 sitting) | -1000 | 4 seconds | 120 seconds |
| Basic 4 / Improved 3 | Fillet of Arma (Q40) | +2200 | +880 (+1760 sitting) | -1500 | 8 seconds | 170 seconds |
| Basic 5 / Improved 4 | ??? (Q50) | +3000 | +1200 (+2400 sitting) | -2000 | 12 seconds | 220 seconds |
| Basic 6 / Improved 5 | Shalah Ribs (Q60) | +3900 | +1560 (+3120 sitting) | -2500 | 14 seconds | 270 seconds |
| Improved 6 | ??? (Q70) | +4900 | +1960 (+3920 sitting) | -3000 | 16 seconds | 320 seconds |
(*) Since the maximum strength is 260, any but the lowest quality meat will simply reduce your strength to 1 and drain all the stamina you get from your strength. Stamina bonuses from equipment remain.
Florist
Florists produce bouquets, which increase your wisdom and thus your sap regeneration for 10 seconds.
| Grade | Name | Wisdom | = Sap Regen | Use time | Re-use time |
| Basic 1 | Basic Bouquet (Q10) | +100 | +40 (+80 sitting) | 1 second | 20 seconds |

Larvester
Larvesters produce larva, which increase your will and thus your focus regeneration for 10 seconds.
| Grade | Name | Will | = Focus Regen | Use time | Re-use time |
| Basic 1 | Dried Larva (Q10) | +400 | +160 (+320 sitting) | 1 second | 20 seconds |

Magnetic Cartographer
Magnetic Cartographers produce maps of magnetism, which activate an aura that increases the life and stamina regeneration of you and your nearby teammates for 10 seconds.
Maps of magnetism can be rather confusing as they have 3 different cooldowns:
- The cooldown until you can use an occupation item again, listed in the table as Re-use time.
- The cooldown until you can use an aura again (including your protection auras), listed as Auras down.
- The cooldown until your teammates can be effected by a regeneration aura again, listed as Team.

Medic
Medics produce medic kits, which increase your metabolism and thus your life regeneration for 10 seconds.
However it also gives a penalty to your intelligence during those 10 seconds, thus leaving you drained of your sap.
| Grade | Name | Metabolism | = Life Regen | Intelligence* | Use time | Re-use time |
| Basic 1 | Small First-Aid Kit (Q10) | +600 | +240 (+480 sitting) | -100 | 1 second | 20 seconds |
| Basic 2 / Improved 1 | First-Aid Kit (Q20) | +1300 | +520 (+1040 sitting) | -500 | 2 seconds | 70 seconds |

| Improved 6 | Kit of Supreme Healing (Q70) | +6300 | +2520 (+5040 sitting) | -3000 | 16 seconds | 320 seconds |
(*) Since the maximum intelligence is 260, any but the lowest quality medic kit will simply reduce your intelligence to 1 and drain all the sap you get from your intelligence. Sap bonuses from rites or equipment remain.
Scrollmaker
Scrollmakers produce writing necessities, which increase your success chance in crafting for a while.

Water-Carrier
Water-Carriers produce flasks of water, which activate an aura that increases the life and sap regeneration of you and your nearby teammates for 10 seconds.
Flasks of water can be rather confusing as they have 3 different cooldowns:
- The cooldown until you can use an occupation item again, listed in the table as Re-use time.
- The cooldown until you can use an aura again (including your protection auras), listed as Auras down.
- The cooldown until your teammates can be effected by a regeneration aura again, listed as Team.

Special Items
Every occupation has it's own special item, and practising an occupation allows you to get that occupation's special item once every 2 days from the occupation master.
Teleport Pacts
For the 4 harder occupations, the special item is a teleporter pact to Almati Wood. For Butcher and Medic this is a Kami pact, and for Larvester and Scrollmaker a Karavan pact, but this only affects which side of the Ranger camp you end up in.
Note that the Ranger camp in Almati Wood has NPCs that can teleport you to any capital in which you have an occupation, so these pacts can also be used as a "teleport pact to any capital where you have an occupation".
Occupation Enhancers
For the 4 easier occupations, the special item is something that helps with occupations itself. Three of these items help with improving components, and the fourth one helps with actually practising your occupation.
- Lucky Flower (Florist)
You can chose to use a lucky flower when you start an upgrade action to increase your chances of success in the upgrading.
- Amber of Protection (Magnetic Cartographer)
You can chose to use an amber of protectionto prevent the loss of 2 basic components when you fail an upgrade action .
- Stimulating Water (Water-Carrier)
You can chose to use a stimulating water to get 4 upgraded components instead of 2 when you succeed an upgrade action.
- Improved Tool (Toolmaker)
You can chose to use up an improved tool when you start practising your occupation (only with basic components) to give you +10% yield on that item creation.
Careful: It does NOT increase yield past 100%. If you are already using the best recipe (for 18 products), do NOT choose to use the improved tool, due to a bug it will actually lower the final number of products.
