The '''FORAGE''' [[verb]] is used to find various plants in wilderness areas in [[Elanthia]]. Most commonly, it is used to find [[herb]]s such as [[acantha leaf]], though sometimes it is used to find poisons, flowers, fruits, or vegetables. |
|||
[[Foraging]] is also a task assigned by the [[Adventurer's Guild]]. |
|||
== Syntax == |
|||
The syntax for the forage verb is as follows: |
|||
*FORAGE {descriptor} {noun} |
|||
The descriptor can be abbreviated, however, the noun cannot. For example, if foraging for [[ephlox moss]], the command can be typed <TT>FORAGE EPH MOSS</TT>, however, <TT>FORAGE EPHLOX MOS</TT> will not find the ephlox moss, even if successful. |
|||
== Foraging == |
|||
The availability of the various plants depends on an area's terrain and climate. As many areas do not possess certain climates or terrains, many foragable items cannot be found in a given area.<ref>[http://www.play.net/gs4/info/flora/home.asp Elanthian Flora Guide], on Play.net<sup>[http://www.play.net/]</sup></ref><ref>[http://www.gsranger.net/guides/foraging/ Elanthian Herb Information] - Hosted by the [[Elanthian Explorers' Society|EES]]<sup>[http://www.gsranger.net/]</sup></ref> |
|||
A specific room can only be foraged for five items at a time. When one successfully forages in a room, the "inventory" of the room decreases by one, and the room begins to regenerate its "inventory" at a rate of one per six minutes. If a room is depleted significantly and no foraging occurs in the room in 20 minutes, all five items in the "inventory" are replaced. |
|||
Foraging successfully depends on a few factors. The following will affect the character's chance of success: |
|||
;Increase: |
|||
* [[Agility]] bonus |
|||
* [[Intuition]] bonus |
|||
* [[Survival]] [[skill]] |
|||
* [[Perception]] [[skill]] |
|||
* Kneeling position |
|||
* Open hands |
|||
* [[Ranger Base]] spell, [[Foraging (603)]] |
|||
* [[Ranger Base]] spell, [[Assume Aspect (650)]], Aspect of the Yierka |
|||
;Decrease: |
|||
* Injuries (hands, eyes) |
|||
* Only one hand open |
|||
==Messaging== |
|||
:Indicates that the plant can be found at a different time of the day (f.ex., only at night): |
|||
As you carefully forage around you can find no hint of what you are looking for right now, though you are fairly certain this is where it can be found. |
|||
:Indicates that this room has the wrong terrain type. |
|||
As you carefully forage around you see no evidence of what you are looking for. You wonder if it could even be found in this terrain. |
