Description

Foraging is the skill used when searching Resource nodes for a wide variety of resources, including seeds and various food items.

Notes

  • Foraging a node will deplete it, causing it to disappear.
  • Resource nodes spawn randomly, and can take up to a few days for more to appear.
  • Different tile types and location, season, player condition, and other possible variables affect the percentage and type of items that can be botanized. See the Resource nodes page for more details on these modifiers.
  • Higher skill adds a flat value increasing the number of items you find. (see Resource nodes page)
  • You have a chance to obtain rare coin while botanizing.
  • Foraging can be done while mounted/driving a vehicle.
  • Foraging can be done while moving, so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working
