though u dont have to get carpenter but if u seriously r going for just dungeons and monster loot then sure go 4 it, if u can get to the deep dark cave and never die u can get super loots like dark leggings, 602 gold value!
just increase all the stats that at all effects ur combat hit ratio stop whining if u started as construction or something ur miss chance might be higher at begginning if it late mid game and u miss most of the time then u just fail
to get the teddy bear for good use get like 35-40+ compassion and then it will say u took the teddy bear back to town and gave it back to the little girl for 60 gp :D
