Renown

This is partially for architects, but everyone can benefit from it.
Renown is from grouping. You can be questing in the open world, doing dungeons, adventures, basically any content done while grouped. It also has a variety of uses. There are cosmetics such as new mounts and mount add-ons, potions that give various buffs that are unlocked through a guilds influence system, and most importantly crafting bags.
For fun I tested this out at 15 and found just queuing for dungeons and leveling earns you enough renown to buy enough crafting bags to maintain your trade skills without farming mats. Architects can pick up one skill, I recommend mining to get the blue gems you'll need later on, and use the renown to supply the other. No need for alts to gather freeing up more time to level and experience everything.
Anyways I saw a lot of concern over how to level architect and thought I'd give the PSA~
