Farming Idea

Hey I am a partially avid farmer and I after a group discussion with people we came up with two ideas that we would LOVE to be made available if possible. Keep in mind we would pay zen for these.

Idea 1:

Make available a pick-axe that reduces the time on farming herbs. This could be a perm item if possible or otherwise something that would last week (please!!!).

Idea 2:

A scroll like the eso scrolls that would allow people to farm with say 50% more chance of finding herbs or 50% less time in farming herbs.

Please be polite about my ideas and thank you.

G

EDIT:

Another idea would be to make herbs appear on our mini maps.

    I dont agree with the second idea, you can't make it so that if you use a scroll you find 50% more herbs.... but maybe you use a scroll and it shows on mini map where they are, OR have a chance of getting more from one group (instead of 1-2 for mats and 2-3 for herbs, 3-4 mats and 4-5 herbs or something like that)

    I'd rather just have an area that only your character can see.... Which has a certain herb that you need to farm. :P

    I was told that resource gathering speeds up with level. The level of WHAT is beyond me, though.

    You have a 90% chance to find the normal amount (2 for herbs, 1 for everything else) when you mine and a 10% to get one extra.

    When you reach the level required to gather the next resource tier, the speed of gathering all previous tiers increases. Therefore, a level 60 will be much faster gathering nectar, for example, than a level 20.

    Venomancers are Female. Barbarians are male. It will forever be this way. So suck it up and deal with it already.

    Why have they made it like that? It would be common sense to make it the other way around as a lvl 20 would need nectar more than a lvl 60 would. Weird..

    Actually, it makes more sense for higher lvl's to farm lower lvl herbs quicker. Since at higher lvl your farming higher end stuff, it makes it easier to gather up the lower end stuff, so it takes you less time.

    Ah yes I also meant to add in that idea of making herbs show up on the mini map.

    Well I hope someday at least some part of this idea would come to the game.

    because you farmed so darn many of them (me has had like 200 of every herb in PWI up to me level except high grade herbs) you know how to pull em from the ground in mere seconds.
    b:chuckle

    what me don't get is how a herb can overpower you...a person who can kill giant monsters in seconds.
    (o.o)'

    also me like your ideas.
    =O me farm a boatload of herbs and would wuv to get them faster (usually end up being interrupted by wandering mobs since me take so long with the higher grade mats.) b:sad

    Waiting for...Hamster Packs!
    58% chance to get tokens
    41% chance to get an all class pet hamster....but they has already been freed by the magic hamster.
    1% chance to get ban hamstered with the message "Hamsters United!"

    Ah yes see being a Veno I am lucky as I can keep watch for mobs and if one comes to close I set my pet to attack it, either killing it or keeping it busy till I am done ;)
