I was searching online to see ways to improve the Bountiful Harvest skill level above the 54% I tend to have when I am out harvesting. I know the three three things that are obvious: - Blessed Coldain Prayer Shawl gives 27% - Compact Sumac Harvesting Kit gives 12% - Tradeskill AA "Ample Harvest" can give 15% I know of one more that is debatable (due to the alternative "Cloak of the Harvester"): - Shroud of Hidden Harvests gives 1% The above gives 55%. Is there more available from other sources?
Kaaria was asking about this in chat, so I added it as a feature to EQ2U: http://u.eq2wire.com/soe/item_searc...-1/-1/-1/-1/-1/-1/-1/harvest a second time/-1
Elixir of Mara - http://eq2.zam.com/db/item.html?eq2item=299d483de0f9c35b99d4f3fe710844be Potion of Bountiful Harvest - http://eq2.wikia.com/wiki/Potion_of_Bountiful_Harvests
Ahh.... now .... (1) Gi of the Ashen Artisan is an excellent suggestion. I found it from an EQ2U search as suggested before mentioned again above. I totally mssed its existence! Already crafted it now .. so ... 67%! Thank you! (2) Elixir of Mara ... is this a one shot deal? As in, one, ever? Or can we make/acquire more of them? (3) The Potion of Bountiful Harvest, despite its name, does not mention giving any Bountiful Harvest skill at all, only +%chance of rare...
Despite its name, the Potion of Bountiful Harvest only increases your chance of getting a rare harvest (which, it seems, doesn't apply to spellshards and foundations) and has no effect on getting bountiful harvest procs.
Elixir of Mara is a one time item and only lasts an hour, yes it helps for that one hour but not really something that we can continually obtain/use. I still use the potion of bountiful harvest, why not? May as well get the other rares while out there decimating the landscape by clearing every harvesting node . Also, who here doesn't have hundreds of them already
