This page is to help people find the things they need for Adventurer's Guild tasks. Or really, for any other tasks you'd like.

Maps of areas can be found with terrain and climate info for each room are have been compiled and are available elsewhere.[1]

An in-game script with data on many forageable items is also available.[2]

Table Usage

As should be described on the forage page, each item can be found in one (or more) type of climate and terrain. The world is composed of several different climates (arid, arid temperate, cold damp, cold dry, freshwater, glacial, hot damp, humid, moist, saltwater, snowy arctic, and temperate). Each of these is divided into several terrain types (barren scrub, coniferous, cultivated, deciduous, grassland, hard flat, hilly, mountainous, plain dirt, riparian, rough, sandy, tropical forest, muddy wetlands, and subteranean). The beauty of this, is that it does not matter the time, location, realm, or day; each combination of climate and terrain will have a certain type of herb(s) growing.

Therefore, this table need only contain the item, climate, terrain, and number of bounty points. Then, if Character A gets assigned to forage blueberries in the catacombs, he need only look at this table, and see that Character B got assigned to forage for blueberries in Bonespear, found them in humid climate and rough terrain, and entered them here, then Character A can then look on his handy maps and see that there are a few rooms of the catacombs that are humid and rough, and forage just in those rooms.

Foraging Locations
Item Climate Terrain(s) Bounty Points Comments
poop humid coniferous 1500 Really, you can find poop anywhere, this is just an example
acantha leaf arid decidious, grassland, riparian, trapical forest 250
acantha leaf cold, dry coniferous, deciduous, grassland, plain dirt, riparian, sandy 250
angelica root glacial plain dirt 850 Also found in cemetary in Ta'Vaalor (need to sense)
black trafel mushroom hot, damp deciduous, grassland 700

fiddlehead fern cold, damp deciduous, riparian 400
frostweed snowy, arctic coniferous
honeysuckle vine snowy, arctic coniferous
iceblossom snowy, arctic forest, not garden Any color was accepted
pink clover blossom humid rough 250 forage for a pink one specifically
pothinir grass hot, damp deciduous 800
red clover blossom humid rough
sovyn clove temperate plain dirt 850
white clover blossom temperate grassland 250
wolifrew lichen cold, dry deciduous, grassland, plain dirt, riparian
yabathilium fruit arid riparian

Note: for consistency, can we arbitrarily handle things that can show up in different climates AND terrains how I've started the acantha leaf one? So some items will have multiple rows, but each row will only contain a single climate.

Unknown Climate/Terrain

If you are unable to determine the climate or terrain of the location from which you obtained your item, there is a secondary table on this page where you can add a detailed description of the rooms in which you found the item you were looking for and some friendly ranger with too much time on their hands may go through, find the climate/terrain, and move that information here.
