Herb Farming
« on: September 02, 2015, 03:21:28 pm »
I believe this already exists in osrs but I'm not 100% sure.

While picking the herbs when they are fully grown your inventory will be filled like 3x, so you have to bank 3x. I know running to the bank is not that much of an issue at Catherby, but as for the Falador herb patches, the run is pretty long.

So my idea is, if you use any herb on the Tool Leprechaun, all those specific herbs will be noted in your inventory. Which will make picking those herbs much more efficient.

Again, this is not an original idea I guess. Just something which could make the gameplay slightly smoother.

I like this idea, would take away a very tedious part of the skill.

sounds a great idea, I'll definitely like to see this coming in game!

I may not be the best, but I'm definitely not like the rest.

Great idea to sink cash from the game, which is way too much right now.
Would love to see it coming.

More important question, why do you get 3 inventories of herbs from one seed plant o.O?


It's our decisions that define us

Why have I never received a full inv of herbs from 1 plant ??????

On topic: I'm sure this was discussed a long time ago. The verdict from the staff team was that if this was to be implemented, the number of herbs received would be reduced slightly. Meaning you save time running, but end up with less herbs.

Personally I don't mind the running back and forward and I certainly wouldn't want to receive less herbs per seed. However if the number of herbs was not reduced and it was implemented I would be all for it :P.

Gotta do this correction tho: he never spoke about getting 3 invs of herbs from 1 patch.

While picking the herbs when they are fully grown your inventory will be filled like 3x, so you have to bank 3x.

He only said that inventory will be filled 3 times from all the patches in total. There's 12 patches in Catherby.

What I would like to see is farming becoming the passive skill it is in runescape. Babysitting plants is silly, in my opinion. Increase the time for things to grow a bit, increase XP rates so xp/h doesn't suffer from it, but keep the herb yield per patch as it is. That way growing X number of herbs would take longer, but wouldn't require constant checking.

Honestly I'd like to see this be expanded upon.

For one, it's an easy money sink to pay the leprachauns for noting your herbs. Why not also pay them for taking care of your crops/herbs/trees? Could make the payment in herbs if necessary too.

Would this be one of those nuisances sinks like the 1k money sink when decanting potions that does nothing or an actual sink? Tbh, I don't think stakers would care either way because they have the largest portion of all the money in the game.

True, this feature isn't a good money sink. E.G. Paying 10k * 3 = 30k per a farm round is not much at all, especially when many players are not farming constantly (after they have achieved 99 farming). If the payment would be raised (let's say to 30k per once or something else), it is not worth at all, most players would rather bank them. Farming is easy enough now, why making it more easier? You can always take 2 lvl 3 acc with you and trade the herbs to them if you feel that it is too hard/taking too much time for you to run back and forward.
