How to Gather Plants

When Herbalism is learned as a profession, you will also learn a skill named Find Herbs that will show nearby plant nodes as a golden point at your minimap. I suggest you to put a button for Find Herbs on your Action Bars, because you will need it to constantly re-activate the skill buff, because just like your other buffs, it does not persist through death and has to be re-applied all the time.

When you see a golden point on your minimap and go to that or you see a plant yourself, you can interact with it to try to pluck the plant and gather it. But you cannot gather all plants from the start, you will see different colors representing how hard is it for you to gather that certain plant. These colors represent the skill level needed to gather the plant and they can be:

-Red means that plant needs higher skill level than you have and you cannot pluck it.

-Orange means you can hardly pluck this plant, your attempts may often fail but every successful attempt will definitely increase your Herbalism skill.

-Yellow means you can normally pluck this plant, your attempts may sometimes fail and so every successful attempt will generally increase your Herbalism skill.

-Green means you can easily pluck this plant, your attempts will rarely fail and so every successful attempt may not increase your Herbalism skill.

-Gray means you can pluck this plant with no effort, your attempts will never fail and so it will not increase your Herbalism skill.
