Forage?

Postby belibutn » Thu Aug 23, 2012 11:51 am

I know that foraging is like one of the first things you learned, but I keep seeing references to turning it on. Once you learn it, isn't 'on' all the time? If not, how do you turn it on?

Forage is a movement mode, unlocked when you get the Foraging skill. There's a movement button in the main menu, look there for it.

it also has a "cost"; using it drains phlegm(?)...

There are 4 movement speeds/searching types. Normal, Foraging(Slowest move speed + best foraging ability), Wandering (Faster movement +lesser foraging) and Running (Fastest movement + lowest foraging ability). Hope this helps.

Wandering (Faster movement +lesser foraging)

Not as in you find less things when wandering, but it's a lesser version of the foraging buff. You still find more stuff wandering than normal walking.

Just wanted to clarify :)
I never managed to figure out something clever for my signature on Paradoxplaza, and I doubt I'll do it here either.

one thing that has confused me with the Wander movement mode (my preferred mode at the moment for treking to find a claim spot) is the description mentions if draining blood and phlegm... but I've never noticed it actually draining blood. Is that a recent change or a bug?

Wander should drain blood, if it doesn't then it's a bug.

It definetely does drain it, its a lot less than phlegm though.

hmm... guess it's not draining enough blood to show before I have to top up the phlegm by eating... good to know :) thanks
