Zaniac: Xanat Teppy: Ok, so right now I have it so that Xanet, for instance, is giving a +13/-13 effect, and the really common ones are doing around 2. Teppy: Camelmint gave +18 tlanthil: I got some spinnea for the first time an hour or two ago Teppy: ILet me check that one. Pascalito: and i just had first Enchanter's Plant Zaniac: but what is this msg the herb is off? Teppy: That means "Teppy is fixing the code, and if you see the numbers halfway thru and he changes them then you'll yell." Teppy: Ok, now name some herbs that you see from time to time. Malard: but wont we yell anyway? Teppy: Yes, but this way you'll yell once. That way, twice. Orrin: Squill Teppy: That's +13 as I have it right now. Zaniac: Whitebelly Teppy: 7 Mudkest: Patchouli Teppy: 18 Arame: Crampbark Teppy: 3 Zaniac: Crampbark is common Taff: buckler leaf Teppy: 2 Arame: Bucklerleaf is common Dreasimy: Pitcher Plant Teppy: 10 Orrin: Tagetese Sprocket: crampbark is relatively common, but definitely not amoung the 20-30 most common ones.. Please keep in mind that the herbs with useful stats (like crampbark) will be the most consumed ones Teppy: Right. Teppy: I see that used a lot in cooking. Taff: bull's blood Teppy: 18 on Bull's Blood. That must be pretty rare, right? Teppy: Looks like at the current state we're maxxing out at 18. Arame: Yes Malard: dont have a great deal of it in my chests Sprocket: with bot common and somewhat common hers giving +2-3 it will hardly worth it to try any kind of herb stacking Teppy: Let's try some more of the not quite common, but not real rare ones. Malard: if anything royal rosemary, wild garlic etc (c5 herbs) will have the highest potency for most of the tale. Arame: Maybe Death's Piping? Teppy: 13 Taff: Meadowsweet? Teppy: 10 Teppy: So how would you categorize an herb like Meadowsweet? Orrin: medium->rare Vulpine: Do you track how often an herb is picked, or just the spawn rates of herbs and thus their realitive rarity? Teppy: I know the spawn rates; it's the usage rates that are more interesting. Malard: semi useful, only used it when doing white sand runs (eaten fresh) Insomnia: i find meadowsweet quite a lot TheMazeEcho: not really common, but in the middle range Teppy: Ok, so I think that if an herb like that is giving 10's, then that's not so bad. Taff: it depends on where you live, really
