Increase herbs given out per harvest

I hate it. Running around in circles for hours with a 1 - 3 herb gain. Even worse if you've got a lot of other players looking for herbs which makes it more difficult to find them.

    It's just fine as it is.

    You just need a decent route.

    I'd say 1-4 per 'grab' would be fair. somethign like 15/35/35/15% chances.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    2-3 is enough me thinks o_O Aiming for specific herbs for specific apothecary is much more efficient anyways. 300 of each herb within an hour b:laugh

    You have to know where the herbs are. Apothecary is by far the easiest to level for me, I got it to level 5 already and have enough of level 4 herbs to level to 6, but need the other half of level 5 which I have none of cuz I wasn't in such high level areas yet.

    On the other hand I didn't get past the damn level 3 quests for the other crafts, need 3 more two star weapons, 1 for each craft (bow, light legs, belt). And on top of that, to get to level 5 I will need 60 leather, 60 compound oil, 90 strong glue and 30 compound thread. The problem here is leather and compound oil which I farmed like crazy in the last couple of days.

    This is why I stay at level 63 for so long now, probably a week already when I used to level at least once a day. I send all my XP into genies for now until I collect all mid mats from mobs needed, since if I level up I will have even more reduced drop rate as if it's not already bad enough (4 hours farming leather on Snake Isle Zealots non stop and getting ~12 drops b:cry)

    This is **** in my opinion and not the herbs. The drop rates and amounts of drops you need from mobs for craft.

    2-3 is enough... but apoth manufacturing itself need to change b:sweat. Should be divided by five to make 1 powder / orb each. It doesn't make sense but yeah, easiest to manufacture, not really a problem. Also if it is increased... don't you think people will go super crazy over herbs all over?

    @ the poster above, farm all the mats before you level up if you want to level your crafting... Buying the mats or just skip it... I bought bunches on my other main toon. + I stayed even lower leveled than you XD. Not even 59 yet. But at least I got tailor and craftsman and blacksmith above LVL3 :D, tailor and craftsman is LVL5 too xD

    im not good at making & finding routes so i use the track points to place 5 of them on the map & run around to each one i wish we could set more then 10 track points then i could farm herbs much easierb:chuckle

    I find nothing wrong with the current herb count. However i wouldn't mind if they shortened the spawn time on it.

    Herbs are fine now. Stop asking Devs to make the game easier, u lazy ppl. As i say in every post like this one, PWI is already too easy. If u want easier, buy urself a single player game and play with cheat codesb:surrender
