Originally, health needed Horehound and Calamus as it's main components, something like 4 of the one and 2 of the other. Now, it needs 8 galingale, and this means that in the last 24 hours or so I've gone through nearly 1500 galingale, and I don't think the basin can sustain that much, so please can we switch it to something less focused on one herb? Mybe Galingale and Horehound, or something. I don't know, just it's insanely hard at times to get enough herbs to fill for people.

It's fine. Estarra already said doing a quick check, she can see an immense amount of Galingale not harvested, absolutely immense. There is a ton of galingale out there, and it isn't to hard to get a decent supply at all.

it is when you're going through 1500+ in the space of one day, it takes rather a lot of herbalists to find and harvest that much.

Actually, just to be more accurate, it wasn't a day, so much as 6 hours or so.

The jobs are supposed to have to rely on one another. Tailors need gems, enchanters need clothes or jewelery to enchant upon, and alchemists need herbalists to pick herbs. In other words, if you want to be succesful in your job, you need to have relations with others who can supply you with what you need.

Remember, alchemy isn't supposed to be something that requires no outside help at all. If you want to do refills, and make a profit from them, you need to work with herbalists, and not just a few. Perhaps this is a sign you need to work with other people who can also harvest herbs, if you find you are lacking a certain one. And, as such, you might have to refill for them - such is life and business.

It's all about player interaction, baby. kiss.gif

Heh everybody's been whining about galingale shortage or lack of sale.

Laysus isn't stopping the player interaction, just changing the focus.

I hear alot of complaining, then I look and see plenty that isn't harvested, and even more sitting in rifts.....looks like it's just a bunch of complaining to me.

Well maybe this apparently huge amount is hidden somewhere where I cant find it as every room I check seems to be harvested down to very little at all.

I can only think that perhaps there are some very tucked away rooms that have been planted that only a few know about.

Well, Amphitrite, did you know the Northern Serenwilde has galingale too? The FIRST ROOM OFF THE ROAD I went to there had 21. wink.gif

200 forest rooms times 7 galingale to a room, aye heaps
