New herbs and recipies survey
« on: July 31, 2018, 10:06:11 AM »
Hi all, with the massive herbalism upgrade finally here, the next stage calls for your help in assessing if the new herbs are properly spawning throughout domains and in proper quantities.

Please do not post the name and locations of the new herbs, nor their recipies here. We intend those discoveries to be enjoyed in game.

What I would like are weekly reports send through PMs of what new herbs you found and where. This may take several weeks to complete as some herbs are still meant to be rare and are seasonnal spawns. There are new herbs for each domains.

On my part, I will simply let you know if all the new herbs of a given domain have been found in game.

Obviously, do let me know if you have concerns regarding certain of the new potions. One of them was already made harder to make following player suggestions.

Thank you!
Best Regards!

After 2 days, it is confirmed that herbs in the following domains do seem to spawn as intended: Barovia, Hazlan, Dementlieu, Ghastria, Sithicus & the Mists areas.

Issues with herbs not spawning in Blaustein, Har'Akir and Perfidus are still under investigation.
Best Regards!

Point of clarification. For Har'Akir it is the surface herbs that are not spawning. In the caves and dungeons it sees to be fine, although more spawning points need to be added.

We are aware not all herbs work with herbalist bags, it will be corrected.

With autumn being there in game, I need new reports of the new herbs you are finding in game, so please keep them coming.

I am aware of the Black Hawthorne issue, a fix is already available and will be applied as soon as it is possible.

Spring is in game. I need those reports coming. Tell me in PM (don't post here) what herbs you found.

Are desert tileset herbs still not spawning? Seeking confirmation for both Har'Akir and Perfidus.

Is Blaustein blooming?

Have you find nice herb combos? Which ones.
Best Regards!

I'll help! I saw some new herb I don't remember the name of in Har'akir - it looked like some kind of twiggy bush? Spawned in the area south of the Temple of Harvest.

New herbs definitely appear in Barovia.

I love the initiative taken by doing this, and seeing previous caster-only goodies get into the hands of martial characters is long-awaited (although the changes to make crafting NPCs disappear at night takes away from this a lot).

Seeing potives of Light Step and Ultravision is definitely a good start. A bottled black no longer screws over a 20th-level fighter.

FYI. I am aware the Black Hawthorne thornes are still not spawning. The fix is done, but it simply slipped through the cracks and was not implemented on the module directly, but we'll fix that shortly.
