I've decided to start harvesting since its way too expensive to buy ressources.

I would like to know what are the "best" harvesting spots at each level.

1) Jute : A bit below Leth Nurae : 4 plants : 1 min repop

2) Cotton :

3) Firegrass :

4) Silkbloom

5) Vielthread :

6) Steelweave :

I just want to hit T4/T5 ASAP to start working on my +HP/Mitigation armor.

Also what secondary harvesting skill would you recommend ?

I absolutely fucking HATED with passion the "gardening simulator" WoW was.

So i'm doing this to avoid having to spend 2 Plat just to make alternate T4 armor.

An easy to reach spot with mixed firegrass/cotton is along the road heading west from Ahgram to CiS. One node is just as you chunk in from Ahgram, the sister node is further up the road and off to the south, just out of sight of the "road."

An easy to farm spot with firegrass is in Skrillien Point (just north of Strand of Ancients in Qalia). There are some mobs in the 20s.

An easy to reach spot with mixed firegrass/silkbloom is in Ridge of Memories, but that is one that you have to be shown to get to. Roughly, its N of Tursh, on the other side of the mountains. Being able to evac/succor makes this chunk a pleasure rather than a chore.

I'll only show guildmembers where my secret no-mob T5 chunk is located. Sorry. After the merger, you'll be on the same server as me.

Here are 2 entries to add to your "points of interest" file. It is located in the /bin folder that VG was installed in, and is called CustomPoINames.txt

Code:

PoIName="Fire1" ChunkX=-10 ChunkY=-8 X=28662 Y=87946 Z=1814 PoIRank=1
PoIName="Fire2" ChunkX=-10 ChunkY=-8 X=-7175 Y=98165 Z=2565 PoIRank=1

This is a text file, and I believe there should be no blank lines at the end. Then when you pop the map up in Qalia, you'll see "Fire1" and "Fire2" appear on the NE corner of the continent. I believe this file is only loaded when you start the game, and not from camping out to char select screen.

I skilled up on Jute/Cotton around Ca'ial Brael, and the cotton was in 2 areas. The highest traffic area was pretty much at the words "Gataro Village" (and a bit north) on this map. Another good spot was just south of the Shrine of the Mind on this map (the chunk due north of CB, the sister node is on the other side of the big rock, this node is mixed cotton/jute). Between Shrine of Time and the road (north side of lake/pond) are some cottons mixed with mobs.

A pure cotton area is just north of Themnwar's Shield. One node on the west shore, the sister node on the east shore. There is some cotton SW of Renton Keep, but I never found the sister node. A guildie showed me a bunch of cotton due north of Renton Keep, it was in areas that had a lot of bugbears and spiders which he had leveled up on. I'm not all that certain I can find the place again.

I put skinning as the secondary harvesting on all my toons. Partly because I hate to see anything go to waste, and partly because rare skins are so far beyond fucked that I know 2 leather workers in my guild who quit because of the ultra low rare drop rate for rares. The drop rate for ultra rares was so low that other than a guild of exploiters on the pvp server, only 1 UR hide was spotted on all other servers (from a work order, no less), and that guild of exploiters had several people in full T5 UR medium armor (Silius claimed that they weren't exploiting but refused to describe/identify the mob that always dropped UR hides and repopped in like 2 min).

To build boats, one requires an insane amount of wood, and far too many rare woods at that, so perhaps you might like to do lumberjacking for a secondary.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-06 05:48

Well this is where abouts I did mine, Maxed in two days of harvesting

1) Jute : A bit below Leth Nurae : 4 plants : 1 min repop

2) Cotton :Jathar Flats

3) Firegrass : CiS

4) Silkbloom TarJenisar

5) Vielthread : Wyrmwing Slopes

6) Steelweave :Wyrmwing Slopes

Main reason for those areas is because I made a pattern on them all. As long as you worked in a circle you would have repops by the time you came back around.

Southern enterence from ahgram for CiS, just work your way up to the alter on the left side, turn around and repeat.

Silkbloom, stay north of the city heading east, round to the south keep going till you pass all the cylops and undead ( a few easy names that I farm everytime when I get done for some cheap rares to sell, then evac and repeat )

Vielthread, Varndunes on the east side of the river is easy spot, head north or south. At this point I was able to help harvest steelweave, so I was in Wyrmwing slopes, a 50/50 mix of viel and steel. No mobs, so it was repeative cirlces, one set of planets to the east of riftway, then head west, repeat , repeat , repeat.

Yes the mob does exisit that drops the Ultra Rare hide. have seen it seen it myself many of times, the repop on it has been fixed to the best of my knowledge, as well as the drop rate on the hide. Was most taken advantage of when the UR nods where set to hit a lot ( few months back ? ) anyways it is there FYI. Just have to find it.

Daeanor · 2007-08-06 06:04

Some alternate spots:

Jute - near the prison camps outside of Khal; some lowbie mobs

Cotton - either side of Khal, north and south (you can harvest these two forever); no mobs

Firegrass - all around the Strand of the Ancients, Upside, and everything between; high teens, low 20's mobs

Silkbloom - Qa Riverbank, across the river from Neamsog, mixed with Firegrass; no mobs

Vielthread - Varryn Dunes along the river bank on the outpost side of the river; level 42-ish mobs. I know of a mob-free area too, but like Drkpl2, I'm not willing to share just yet .

I haven't found Steelweave yet myself.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-06 06:22

Oh I have no problem sharing mob free areas, that is why I told her about Wrymwing Slopes. All other areas, at level 50, even if you harvest right next to them they will not bother you at all with agro.

The only thing I can not share is the location of the mob that drops the ultra rare hide for skinning. shrugs..

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-06 06:56

Its not for the "best farming spot" but the simplest to raise your skill.

I want to make a full set of yellow T5 of Health + Qualian.

In case i ever need a ton of hp (you never know), 2500 unbuffed is really low.

Plus i have some spare dusts, could make a couple of Heroic T5 Resists for raiding.

But at 15G (yellow) 45 (orange) per Vielthread of FH no way.

Thanks everyone !

Will load some DIVX on the right screen (Regenesis was a pleasant surprise) and harvest semi AFK.

PS : I have to admit, illusive really gave me crazy ideals about ToT wizard tanking !

And i'm not willing to spend 2 3 plats to realise them. 3 4 Plat for T5 Agony yeah

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-06 07:04

hmmm, use to get a lot of prime viel in wyrmwing Emilia, about one to two per hour. would call guild over thou, so we always had about 10 bales per run at it. Mature is much more commen to find there ( well obvesouly ) after server merger, if you still need some I will hook you up with what you need.

Illusive · 2007-08-06 09:16

if you're planning on tanking, you may want to get a healing dispersion focus made (i tried to get a t4 one made but it turns into dd proc instead of heal proc /shakes fist at soe) and also get the "wind" crystals made into a chestpiece as they proc a heal when struck, IIRC

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-07 03:09

242 Harvesting after 3 sessions and 3 seasons of Regenesis

Thanks everyone

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-07 05:44

Grats Emilia,

another thing you may want to look for is a leather worker that is willing to make you a harvesting outfit. I have two, one for reaping and one for mining. Thye do make a nice difference as you are building your skills. Thou once maxed at 500/500 500, you will not really need them as much if you solo harvest. You will only be able to yield 1.7 of anything.

Working in a group will help raise it faster as well.

Tangurena · 2007-08-07 10:30

Any outfitter can make the harvesting clothes (as a tailor, I can also make the leather pieces, and a leatherworker can also make the cloth pieces). The best harvesting clothes consume rares. Mature Veilthread isn't that hard to come by. The rare T5 skins are so mad rare, that I'd recommend against using for clothing. My harvesting outfit is straight +harvesting, and not specialised (one can get it either way: specialized or not). The better clothing and tools are supposed to improve the "depletion bonus" which is some number that has to do with rares coming up. If you harvest much, you may notice getting rare harvests as a bonus to the regular item being harvested (eg. a rare bale looted in addition to the regular material).

As you approach 400 harvesting, you might want to look to have a true silver sickle made. While the improved tools don't do a heck of a lot when solo harvesting, they really shine when group harvesting. And if you're in a place where you can't get in/out of easily, you can run your gear down to 1% durability and it won't poof. It does adversely affect your harvesting, but at 500/500 harvesting/reaping, when the tools and gear are down into the single digits, then you're getting about 15-18 sheaves instead of 27 at 100% durability.

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-08 05:38

0-100 : Outside Leth Nurae

100-200 : Between Aghram & Khal

200-300 : Just West of Aghram in CiS

300 : West of New Targonor (friend told me there are a couple of spots there)

305 before going to work this afternoon.

As i dont care about efficiency or speed, 2 close spots without much aggro are perfect.

I got from 70 to 305 in i'd say 10-12h doing 'relaxed' harvesting.

However i am surprised, i saw only 2 Yellow Cotton, 2 Yellow Firegrass.

They must have nerfed hardcore the R/UR drop rate from that crazy harvest patch.

Still at lvl50 with DiVX its quite easy and not very painfull.

Cant be compared to the clusterfuck it was in WoW.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-08 06:05

yeah the drop rates are bad, lol.

some areas seem better then others. Tar Jen use to be REALLY good for me. I am talking about 3-4 mature and 2 Primes an hour. ( and not when the rates where up for the weekend ) but now, maybe one an hour.

Wyrmwing is still my favorite area by far. nice releaxing area ( except the ever so often PVPer who thinks they can down me )

Illusive · 2007-08-08 09:12

I got about 5 mature firegrass bales in CIS yesterday emilia, i went from 205 to 305, also got 1 Prime firegrass spawn, and called some guildies over to help. I spent a good 2 hours working that up.

Cotton was rare as all hell for me, only saw 3 mature cotton. turned all 3 into superior grifters of hexes (robe legs/shoulders)

Never saw one mature jute at all.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-08 09:16

there is not a mature jute if I am correct. could be wrong thou, lol. will double check my list and get back on that. Mature cotton I find all too often, no one buys it on tharridon. even at extremely cheap prices.

Yeah just double checked there is no rare for Tier 1's and no primes for Tier 2. ( Tier 1 also has no Primes )

http://www.vanguardcrafters.com/foru...9&d=1184933085

Illusive · 2007-08-08 11:39

Yeah just double checked there is no rare for Tier 1's and no primes for Tier 2. ( Tier 1 also has no Primes )

http://www.vanguardcrafters.com/foru...9&d=1184933085

stock up on that mature cotton, it only takes me 1 bale (and a gem) to upgrade the crafted armor from uncommon to rare.

There is 0 t2 crafted caster stuffs on targanor and i'd like to start offering it to the community. (i know i spent hours farming silvers for it when i started)

So if you wouldn't mind saving it and selling it to me once the servers merge i'd appreciate it

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-08 11:44

have about 8 bales now, will stock a bunch for you. ( lots seem to be around the Jathar Flats area )

Illusive · 2007-08-08 01:52

yah thats where I skilled up on cotton harvesting skill but I only walked away with 4 bales out of 100 or so skill ups and a few hours.

of course there's 0 on the broker on targanor too. I want to start making full rare sets of grifters gear to put on the broker.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-08 02:27

considier it done mate. will hmmm, you will need what 6 or 7 bales per outfit right ?

Illusive · 2007-08-08 03:24

9 slots so 9 bales per outfit. (heh thats a bunch of rares)

(head, shoulders,chest,arms,wrists,belt,gloves,pants,boot s)

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-09 08:22

Well 380 something before going to work.

I found a very nice place in PoA, just outside Haven 5 plants

You then use the "back road" to go to where Captain Dreavers is 5 more plants.

180 Green T4, 5 Yellow T4, 1 Orange T5

I think i'll get my 5 T4 Yellow transformed into Yellow Crafting Gear.

15G Per Yellow T5, thats a lot of cash if you want to make a Yellow T5 Harvesting.

Small Question : Has anyone seen a pattern with Mature/Prime ?

Or you just get a % chance for R/UR every time a plant pops ?

I'm kinda surprised since 1 Orange for 180 Green is kinda lowish.

But as they are easy to harvest, i'd say you can get like 1 Orange per 3H.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-09 08:31

not sure if there is really a pattern, as more just per plant. ( node ) I have found a Prime and two Mature T5's all in the same grouping at the same time. So it is not really by chunk.

Hard to say I guess honestly.

Illusive · 2007-08-09 09:19

Hard to say I guess honestly.

same I had a prime and mature pop right next to each other in CIS two days ago.

It seems like its a % chance when a node pops to spawn rare or ur.

also yellow harvesting clothes (or UR) are super duper rare. Best bet emilia is to get a UR harvesting tool so you hit faster and can cap out the harvest (27 sheafs per node per person) and once you get T5 Get UR set made of clothes and tools.

btw

I spent 3 hours yesterday deconning. I bought up everything 11-20 on targ that I could decon, I only got 5 hexes dusts, and 11 int dusts for T2. (i deconned well over 150 items)

I cant at least now understand why crafters would put such a big markup on gear, i spent about 20g for just T2 crap and didn't even walk away with enough to make a full set of hexes.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-09 09:53

clothes sets end up rare for best possible. same with tools. two mature vielthread and two aged hides make it up. as well as one common vielthread. two true silver, one for each of your harvesting tools.

They will increase your yields a lot. I would recommend to anyone getting the common version of each made for you by any leather worker, for the tier of the primary you are on. Then get the rare version when you hit 400.

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-09 10:45

Yeah i asked a friend, and he told me the best weapon for every tier is a no-brainer.

A friend is a T5 weaponsmith, so he'll do the Sickle as soon as i can use it.

However i have a few questions :

- what is the difference bewteen normal & pristine.

- how much difference does 1 Harvesting/Unit do ?

Because i expect dramatic price differences between Green T5, Yellow T5, Yellow T4

Mature Vielthread Harvester's Pants

Bindable Harvesting LegsClothing

+6 Harvesting

+4 Min Units Per Hit

+2 Average Units Per Hit

Requires Harvesting At 400

Pristine Mature Vielthread Harvester's Pants

Bindable Harvesting LegsClothing

+6 Harvesting

+4 Min Units Per Hit

+2 Average Units Per Hit

Requires Harvesting At 400

Pristine Vielthread Harvester's Pants

Bindable Harvesting LegsClothing

+6 Harvesting

+4 Min Units Per Hit

Requires Harvesting At 400

Pristine Mature Silkbloom Harvester's Pants

Bindable Harvesting LegsClothing

+6 Harvesting

+3 Min Units Per Hit

+1 Average Units Per Hit

Requires Harvesting At 300

I'm taking up Harvesting to save money & be able to make "alternate" gear.

So spending 1P just to harvest better is out of the question.

Kantern · 2007-08-09 10:52

Just so you know, I was talking to a tailor about the healing set.

adding "of healing" to armor removes the qalian effect. Not sure if you knew this or not.

All the boon of health does is increase incoming heals by 10.

They did this because a certain necro use to use an entire set, so that would mean 16+90 qalian procs.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-09 10:56

you should not have to spend anywhere near a plat to get common gear in T5 stats. tops I would say is 10g. Just find a leather worker and most will do it for nothing as long as you supply the items.

Pristine I believe increase the drop rate of the add on's. in short a higher % chance to get a mature bale when harvesting a common plant. I do not get them a whole lot, but more then most from what I hear.

If you decide to sell what you harvest, you will pay for the rare gear within a week. There is a huge difference from common and rare gear when it comes to harvesting. You will probably top out at 15-18 shafes at 500 reaping. with the gear you are at 27. I saw no difference when going from common to rare tools ( already at 500 in botht thou ) but I did see an increase in rare adds to nodes.

Would ask your friend for a common of each tier tool thou ( well from where you are and up ) if you are at 360, just get the rare then. The other things about the harvesting gear rare is you can have it tweeked to what you do ( reaping for ex. ) thou it will not show when you are on your own, in a group, it will show.

Kantern · 2007-08-09 11:34

IMHO the tool is the biggest thing you want to get in rare form asap. It increases the speed in which you "swing".

On a different note, for first time ever I got a "Prime Vielthread Bale" off of a regular Vielthread plant.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-09 12:25

grats ^^

yeah getting a prime off a common is not something that happens too much, but it is a nice surprise when it does.

Tangurena · 2007-08-09 05:26

Illusive, I have a bunch of amateur level hexes if you want. I think I stored them on an alt, so I'll check when I get home (typically I only make amateur gear for guildies, some of whom are serial lowbies). If you're still under 420 reaping, and interested, I can show you the place near tursh (2 pairs of plant nodes, one pair requires evac/succor to get out of the valley [or fight past lvl 28 ents that can be harvested for timber], the other one doesn't need it, but it makes it a pleasure). You didn't respond to tells last nite, so you were probably kiting things (in T-something Harbor). Ridge of Memories is a mixed t3/t4 chunk (but is one of those where you have to be shown the first time). There are 2 pure t4 nodes, one sort of west of NT (I've never found the sister node, since it involves passing lvl 30+ mobs) and one on the road to southwatch (one half guarded by lvl 30 trolls, the other guarded by lvl 30 bandits).

In general, when deconstructing, green gear will only get you the basic stat powders (str, int, wis, etc). The blue gear will get you a reasonable chance at the effect powders (hexes, assassin, etc) with a smaller chance at the basic stat powders. Yellow on up (orange and red items currently use the same deconstruct table as yellow items) gives a small chance at the rarer/special effect powders (wizardry, alacrity, tactician, etc) with ordinary effect powders being the common. One smith I know spent more than 75G on gear to decon to get a single tactician powder. When I'm selling stuff, I typically sell it for 2x the most expensive part. Several tailors I know get bent because "the customer" only wants hexes for gear, and other items just won't sell (even at 1/2 the price of something with hexes).

- what is the difference bewteen normal & pristine.

Pristine means the crafter got the "quality" bar to 100% when they completed the item. The difference between a bag that is "pristine" and one that only got to 99% is 2 slots. Otherwise, gear tends to have the same stats from 76% (bottom of A-grade) as it does at 100%. There is a tiny (in the 1% ballpark) chance at getting a bonus upgrade (like blue to yellow) when you complete an item at 100%.

- how much difference does 1 Harvesting/Unit do ?

I don't know. I've heard all sorts of descriptions, all mutually contradictory and some nonsensical.

Because i expect dramatic price differences between Green T5, Yellow T5, Yellow T4

At level 34, I can make T4 harvesting clothes. I can't make T5. Most of the T5 tailors I know have quit, or at least quit tailoring.

Also, I recommend getting "helper" harvesting tools. They'll have "harvester" in their name, and part of the decription will be "lets a harvester who is not $SKILLer harvest some $SKILL." This way, if you're in a group with a lumberjack, and you aren't one, you can still help harvest that rare tree (the lumberjack still has to start swinging).

that would be awesome.

sorry if I didn't respond to tells, i was probably wooting too much at geting my legendary neck. I had a long afk afterwards where I went to get some food and as usually just see plat seller spam so i dont bother to scroll up. Apologies as i was not ignoring a real person

I only have 3 hexes dusts left. I dont think there are any more blue/yellow items on qalian broker from 11-20 cus i bought them all and deconned em lol.

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 12:12

402 + True Silver Sickle....

So i go to Wyrmwing Slopes....

1st patch (a bit north of the rift) : 4 Viel 1 Steelweave

2nd patch (a bit south of the right : 4 Viel 1 Steelweave

Go back to 1st patch : 3 Steelweave

Wyrming Slopes near the TP is useless if i get T6.

Varyn Dunes next... I remember seeing some T5 near Old Targ.

Kantern · 2007-08-10 12:27

I like wyrmwing even with the T6. Hell, its better than silkbloom, atleast T6 will be used SOMEDAY. :P

Gotten like 15 mature vielthread there and 3 prime bales, got 2 prime steelweave and about 4 mature.

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 02:43

402 cant harvest T6 noob !

462 now and slowly rising, i've found a plant thats bugged and cant be harvested.

Old Targ is Silk/Viel and you need to kill 1 mob to get it.

Vadyn is 100% Viel, Wyrwing is Viel/Steel.

BTW does anyone know how to make "Fireweave" ?

I really really really really really really really really really want the shoulders.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-10 05:34

upgrade the swamp armor with mature steel

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 06:06

which swamp amor ? how do you get that swamp armor ?

All my "regular" crew quit, and i dont have info about swamps armor.

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-10 06:10

the gor armor can be upgraded, if you like I can see about getting you some more info on it later. I helped a few of my guild get the bales needed as well as the armor parts. I myself never decided to put forth the effort to get the armor itself. Have always been satified with my T5 set. As well as the fact that APW will have the strongest armor in the game period.

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 06:51

Gorgalosh oh shit

I chose Flordiel faction a loooooooong time ago guess i'm fucked.

I wanted Fireweave Shawl because ... surprise surprise ! +74 Critic

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-10 07:28

I believe if I am not mistaken these are what you upgrade to from the Flordiel Armor.

http://vg.curse.com/database/items/details/1351005/

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 07:47

Weee ! More useless +Accuracy !

Oh well gonna try and get that quest for the faction reset.

Any idea where the mob to kill is ? or do you still get the token ?

Drkpl2 · 2007-08-10 08:10

think it is still token. Like I said, I never bothered with it myself ( and why you need more crit IDK, lol you are one of the few ppl higher then me ) because of my T5 set.

Only helped a few ppl with it. I will see what info I can gather for you. The Psi I helped made a mixed set thou, parts from all three. ( yes a huge faction grind )

EmiliaSEB · 2007-08-10 09:19

I'm a critic whore

43% w/o : ToT Neck & Fireweave & RI Neck

Why do i want to hit 50% e-peen and to see if it caps at 50%

Plus i love the "double or nothing" when using CV4

Its typical

Most of my stuff comes from depletion bonus, and I have only gotten 4 prime plants so far.

But those prime I usually group.

I showed Illusive the Ridge of Memories spots last night and we got 1 UR node to pop and 4 or 5 rare nodes to pop. Approx 2 hours of group harvesting. Nothing useful (coilvine and berries) from depletion bonus. He's now able to harvest silkbloom by himself. I have about 100ish firegrass bags to make this weekend to try to empty out my reaper's pouch.

ZERO Mature, ZERO Prime...

Yay for the RNG. I ground from 400-500 there in about 3 hours total and got 3 mature nodes and 2 prime.

Illusive,

Was wondering if you wanted me to hang onto other mature bales for you for after merger. currently sitting on about a dozen of each mature ( except steelweave ) and I was going to ship them off to my normal buyer.

If you are planning on making more gear as you level for prizes and such, I will be more then willing to send them to you.

nah, its going to take me a bit to get to lvl 31, and even longer to 41.

right now my focus is on getting 7 more dusts of darkness from rhaz so i can spawn the named to finish rise of the zull, also have to ding 22 then do the crafting quests in NT for 3 more pieces of jewlery, then i can focus back on grinding wo's to 31, maybe stuff in a trip back to aromizo to try to get my g/f her last upate for high justice rank too.
