Why are there so few courtiers, traders and infiltrators? Are those classes for one reason or another useless? Does this alleged uselessness apply only to some continents or to all of them? Is it possible to become courtier/trader and get filthy rich? Is that playstyle, like, uhm, possible?
Also, side question - can nobles buy (and use) scrolls from adventurers? Does spellcasting and adventuring do anything for a noble?
There used to be more of other classes. But now that we no longer have over 1000 characters, you just don't see as many. Also some classes were changed like Trader for example mainly due to changes in how food trading works. So traders are not as needed anymore since bankers can do most food related stuff.
Courtiers, even in the golden days, were mainly for people who couldn't stay active or paid attention some other islands. These days most people are engaged in wars so you just don't see as many. Courtiers can't lead any sizable unit so it is a huge disadvantage to be a courtier when your realm needs a warrior.
