Everything About Professions
Professions in Last War: Survival Game
Introduction
With the start of Season 1, a new building becomes available in the game — the Profession Hall. Here, the player can choose a specialization. Currently, two professions are available:
- Engineer
- War Leader
There is also a slot in the interface for a third profession — Diplomat, however, its skills have not been implemented yet. When information becomes available, we will definitely update the guide.
Professions grant access to unique skills and persist even after the season ends. Therefore, this guide is universal and will remain relevant regardless of the season. Seasonal specifics, including seasonal skills (which are the same for all professions), will be covered in a separate article.
How the Profession System Works
1. Gaining Experience
During the season, you gain profession experience by killing monsters, capturing cities, and upgrading Seasonal Buildings. You can also obtain experience using 
Profession EXP Books rewarded from events and Battle Passes.
⚠️ Note: experience can only be earned during an active season.
The most effective way to level up is by upgrading Seasonal Buildings.
2. Leveling Up and Skills
For every profession level, you receive 1 Skill Point. These points can be distributed between active and passive skills.
3. Unlocking Skills
At Level 1, two basic skills and one seasonal skill are available. New skills unlock every 5 levels: at Lv. 5, 10, 15, and so on.
4. Seasonal Skills
Seasonal skills are only active during the current season. After it ends, the points invested in them are refunded — they can be redistributed into the main skill trees.
5. Profession Level Limit
Each season has a maximum level cap:
- Season 1 — up to Lv. 40
- Season 2 — up to Lv. 70
- Season 3 — up to Lv. 100
Once the limit is reached, excess experience does not go towards leveling up but is stored. At the start of the next season, the accumulated experience is sent via in-game mail.
Who to Choose — Engineer or War Leader?
A common question among players is — which profession to choose? It all depends on your playstyle:
- War Leader — suitable for alliance leaders and those who play an important role on the server: actively participating in captures, coordinating battles, and commanding.
- Engineer — a more universal choice recommended for most players. It helps you develop faster, upgrade buildings, increase base efficiency, and catch up with top players.
Important: you can obtain a Profession Change Certificate 
in the store and from certain events, so the choice is not final.
Skill System
Skills are divided into two types:
- 🛡️ Passive — works continuously, without player participation.
- ⚡ Active — requires activation and has a cooldown time (CD).
Each skill can be upgraded from Level 1 to 5. Increasing the level reduces the CD or strengthens the effect.
Profession Hall Capabilities
- Study the entire skill tree
- Track available active skills and their cooldowns
Redistributing Skill Points
If you want to change your specialization within the chosen profession, you can use the Profession Skill Reset Book 
. It completely resets the tree and allows you to redistribute points again.
There is also a "Skill Points" 
item, which adds extra points regardless of the profession level. You can use up to 10 such items per season. All points exceeding the limit are automatically converted into profession experience — 10,000 XP for each extra point.
Skill Point Deficit
Even at the maximum profession level, you will not be able to unlock the entire skill tree. Therefore, it is worth setting priorities. We tentatively divide skills into three categories:
- 🟢 Priority — recommended to upgrade first.
- 🟡 Useful — situational, enhances specific aspects of the game.
- 🔴 Niche — used in rare cases, can be upgraded last.
⚠️ These recommendations are not strict instructions, but a hint. The choice depends on your playstyle and current tasks.
