Most of mats farmed are herbs. How to make money with them?


I have noticed that metal, wood, coal, and stone mats can easily be made into wines and Ultimate Substance and sold. However, around 80-90% of the mats you gather while "farming" are herbs.

What do you do with them? I know from experience that cat shop and auction never sells them effectively. Is there a better way to make at least a bit of money with them? (like even 500g each...?)b:sad

I thought about making them into remedies at apothecary...but which remedies are in demand? and how should I go about selling them? I never see remedies in the auction house on Harshlands.

Any advice from people with experience are greatly appreciated.b:thanks

    Make hp/mp recovery pots as well as spark-gaining pots. Just level your apoth skill and use the pots you make from it for yourself. It's a money saver.

    Either sell them in a catshop or find a catshop that's buying those herbs. Make sure to check if some of them are items for a quest then you can increase your profit by selling those. b:victory

    Thanks alot for your suggestions.

    so, mostly sell for 400g each to B/S catshops it seems.

    I heard TW uses alot of remedies. Any TW or PvPer wish to share what remedy they think is in demand?

    Potions can sell good, particularly God's Tea (+1.5 sparks) and the ones that reduce the damage you take for a certain amount of time (same level as God's Tea).
    I sold a lot of these at my servers favourite PvP spot and right before TW (gotta tele around to see where some faction is meeting b:chuckle).

    Of course catshop sells. Why do you think there are catshops buying herbs? Obviously there are profits to be made. I think the problem might the location of your catshop.

    I've made atleast 10k from catshopping herbs I just picked up during doing my quests. I just sell those I don't make to level up/crafting good apoth pots.

    When I have the time, I farm in hell and a) donate half the herbs to my faction for TW b) Sell them in catshop. On good days when I farm for a good few hours, I make 1mil+ in shop each night.

    Devilwood is the money-maker herb.


    If you dedicate time and effort, farming in hell can make you alot of money.


    Usually since I don't have anything else to do, I farm herbs for easy simple cash.
