Herbalism Guide

Since picking weeds is frowned upon by the guardians of Silvermoon City, the Herbalism profession can't be done at The AIE Craft Faire. However, the good news is the Craft Faire Herbalism crew, headed up by Geillis, a Level 90 Mage, is usually available to saddle up a two person flying mount and/or a three person mammoth and escort lower level AIE Guildmates (below Level 60) on their appointed rounds to pick herbs and level their Herbalism profession.

How and why can this be done outside of the Craft Faire you ask? The answer is simple. . .the main guy running Craft Faire Herbalism is Tynchal, who IRL is a retired AIE Guildmate with lots of time on his hands. . .in between doctor's appointments since Tynchal is also AIE's unofficial oldest senior citizen.

By appointment via ingame mail to Geillis, time will be set aside (within reason) to escort all AIE Guildmates who want to level their Herbalism but are unable to fly. Geillis will serve as transportation and bodyguard while the Herbalist is busy picking weeds. In return for the help in leveling, the person(s) being helped will be asked to donate all the herbs harvested on the excursion to The Craft Faire. The herbs will then be divided between Alchemy and Inscription, with any profession specific herbs being sent to that profession, i.e. Purple Lotus to Enchanting. However, for your help with The Craft Faire, each Herbalist gains the XP and will also receive a 36 slot Herb Bag. . .such a deal!

For those of you who prefer to go out on your own to farm herbs for The Craft Faire, here is the link to the Herbalism spreadsheet.

Please note the tabs at the bottom to select Alchemy/Enchanting and Inscription. As these professions receive donations either from Herbalism donors or their own, the totals remaining to farm will be reflected on the Herbalism spreadsheet as well as the respective Alchemy, Enchanting and Inscription spreadsheets. If you are donating herbs for whomever can use them, please send them to Melwas and they will be divided 50%-50% between the two major users. Purple Lotus will always go to Enchanting first until they have what they need. If you specify Alchemy, send your donations to Melwas; if your donations need to go to Inscription, send them to Corwalch.

Geillis is looking forward to helping all you "budding Herbalists" (pun intended) while old Tynchal takes it easy. Please send her an ingame mail listing the day of the week and time that work for you; and she will put you on the event calendar, which will remind you of your picking time.
