Harvesting is gathering natural resources. People harvest these resoures for alchemy, selling, quests, or other things. The diagram to the right shows the main things used in harvesting. The object is where you gather the resource from, the player is you (duh), and the harvest bar, is a way to get the resource early.

Normally it would take several seconds to harvest the resource, but you an cut the time short if you have good clicking accuracy. In the harvest bar, there is a moving green bar and an orange line. If you can click on the orange line as the green bar hits is, you will instantaneously get the resource, thus saving time. "It's only a few seconds, what does it matter?" I hear you say. Well, sometimes another player could interfere with you, and you might want to beat them at getting the resource. Or maybe you're trying to collect the resources as quickly as possible. Or maybe you're just up to a challenge. Either way, it's a useful tool.

Please note for mining you need a pickaxe and the mining skill (from a skill master).

So how do I harvest?

It's very simple. All you need to do is find an object (explained below), and double click it. A good idea is not to harvest something that another person is harvesting, as they could easily get annoyed. Harvesting takes only seconds, but when there's alot around, this can seem like too much time, especially when there are other people nearby! Remember when you finish harvesting to pick up the resources, although sometimes you won't get any.

Locations of the objects

These objects can be found virtually anywhere outside of a town! Great places to harvest are in hunting grounds, and other off-town areas. Ores can be found in caves such as Echo Cave and Windy Cave.

But someplaces have higher harvesting spawning, like more trees and wood or herbs.

Forest of Tides is a great place for harvesting from and woods and trees
Forest of Mist has plenty of herbs, though best for herb roots, leaves, stem, sage, and geranium
Moonlight Tomb has plenty of herbs, they produce violet and rosemary the most
Sea of Greed, in the middle of the map where you change from forest to sea, is a grove of trees and everywhere are mushrooms
Ancient Elven Woods has large abundances of mushrooms
