The second goal was to increase his profession's levels. He needed to bring at least his tailoring and enchanting up to level 450 or higher so he could craft gear that would actually help him survive.
Woodworking was less important since he mainly used his summons to fight, but improving it would be useful later when he had the chance to make some wands or staves.
The challenge was in balancing both goals. If he focused on leveling, his professions would fall further behind. If he focused on crafting, he would miss opportunities to gain levels while the volcanic zone was accessible.
The plan was not ideal, but it was workable. The real question was whether Mara would cooperate by staying in the area long enough for him to execute it.
