As for the Half Blacksmith Lord; the rank up system of monsters and jobs are pretty much the same. The difference is that humans stack their jobs while monsters evolve and concentrate on a certain path. That isn't to say monsters can't learn skills. They can, like Dismantle or Language skills. It's just that humans have an easier time getting more jobs while monsters won't necessarily be able to rank up at all (as we saw with some of the goblins under Rou's command during the war against the Empire). Rou's group is an anamoly caused by his own influence upon them.

I wouldn't equate a Half Blacksmith Lord to a level 50 Blacksmith. I think it's more appropriate to say that a Blacksmith Lord would be equal to a Magic Blacksmith, or whatever new job Blacksmith obtained after spending time with Rou.
