Jobs

Jobs are the main source of income on Vulengate. There are currently a total of **7** jobs to choose from.

Jobs pay players automatically for doing certain actions depending on the job they're in. Players can join two different jobs when they first start out, though this number can be increased through ranks, eventually allowing players to join and get income from all seven jobs at once. Players can level up their stats in each job by doing the various tasks that give payment. For each job level the amount of income and experience gained from doing its tasks are increased by 0.1%, eventually capping at level 200. A special tag for each job is also given at level 200 to commemorate maxing the job stats.

## Job Types

###  Miner

Miner job is centered around mining stone, ores and smelting, actions most players will be passively doing during their playtime. Miner is the simplest and most popular of the seven jobs. It's extremely useful as an early game job and is arguably the best job on the server for making large amounts of money quickly in the end game. As of February 2022 there are **56,630** players working in the Miner job, with **65** of them at or above level 200.

###  Hunter

Hunter job is centered around killing hostile and passive mobs, another activity the majority of players will be passively doing. Though not as lucrative as Miner, it can still be a helpful job to have for a consistent source of passive income. Certain mob grinding set-ups can make it a viable long term job for the end game, though most of the optimal grinding setups will require summoning Minecraft bosses and thus pre-planning is needed. As of February 2022 there are **27,272** players working in the Hunter job, with **39** of them at or above level 200.

###  **Woodcutter**

Woodcutter job is centered around chopping down trees and clearing leaves. It can be useful as an early game job due to the amount of wood players gather early on for building and chest supplies, though quickly falls off in the late game as a long term job. Optimal set-ups for making money with this job require hours of set-up and the payment for it still is outclassed by many other jobs. As of February 2022 there are **26,836** players working in the Woodcutter job, with **7** of them at or above level 200.

###  Fisherman

Fisherman job is centered around catching fish. It's one of the best jobs for new players as the entry requirements for it are almost non-existent, just requiring a fishing rod to begin working. Upgrades such as a crate rod and higher fishing mcMMO can help high level Fishermen make tons of money very quickly. Fishing during Fishing Contests is an optimal grinding set-up for this job as it eliminates the mcMMO junk catches from appearing for the duration of the contest. As of February 2022 there are **16,362** players working in the Fisherman job, with **17** at or above level 200.

###  Digger

Digger job is centered around digging blocks such as sand, clay, grass etc. Due to its limited range of payment options and low income rates it's a difficult job to grind for money. Often times it's used as a form of passive income while gathering materials like sand that are in high demand. As of February 2022 there are **14,865** players working in the Digger job, with **3** at or above level 200.

###  Farmer

Farmer job is centered around harvesting crops, picking flowers and tending to animals. It can be extremely useful as an early game job due to the availability of large public farms at Player Warps, and even into the late game can be an exceptional money making method with the right farm set-up. As of February 2022 there are **14,821** players working in the Farmer job, with **21** at or above level 200.

###  Enchanter

Enchanter job is centered around enchanting items. It's the only job that is entirely menu based and is the least popular job by a large margin. It can be an excellent source of income, on par and even surpassing the likes of Farmer and Hunter job, though the entry requirements for grinding it is much higher than most other jobs. Its reliance on needing a large amount of materials to enchant and access to an efficient experience farm make it extremely difficult to grind effectively. As of February 2022 there are **1,508** players working in the Enchanter job, with **3** at or above level 200.

## Removed Jobs

### Brewer

Brewer job was centered around brewing potions. Players would add potion ingredients into brewing stands and receive payment depending on the item inserted. This action of adding items into the brewing stands could be automated through the use of hoppers and the job was removed after AFK money farm designs became popular.

### Smelter

Smelter job was a side category of Miner job that briefly lasted from late Summer to early Fall of 2021. All payment for mining ores was removed over rising concerns over the ability to place and re-mine ore blocks for income, and smelting raw ores became the only method of getting payment from them. The job was reverted back to its original state after smelter job saw an uprising of AFK money farms once again. Silk touch was adjusted to no longer pay when breaking ores to account for the previous exploit.

## Trivia

* The experience needed to max a job is exponential, due to this level 158 is the real "halfway" point when maxing a job, rather than 100.
* When maxing a job to level 200, the exact same amount of money is generated no matter which job it is. Because of this Jobs that max quickly such as Miner are optimal for making insane amounts of income.
* In order to claim a job tag once level 200 has been hit it must be done manually through /redeemtags.
* Despite being inaccessible, the Brewer tag can still be found in the /redeemtags GUI alongside the other job tags.
