Yep, does your farming lvl affect on the amount of ranarrs you get? Sometimes I get 5 ranarrs, sometimes 11. Someone said his max is 14 ranarrs. Someone said he gets always 9-11 ranarrs per patch.

 

 

 

So what's the mysterious answer? Thx in advance :)

Hi...

 

 

 

I've got to say I think farming is set along the lines of cooking and fishing. The higher your lvl the easier the lower lvl items become. It's kinda like cooking as your lvl rises you burn less and less food.

 

 

 

As far as harvest amounts, well there has been an increase in yield for my lower lvl herbs, but nothing too significant on the higher ones. (It would be interesting to know the farming lvl of the player that claimed the large number on ranarrs.)

 

 

 

Of course, some players swear watering increases the _yield_ even though they supposedly do not need to be water. Another said too be sure to have an lots of open space in your bag when you go to harvest. They felt if you had too make two trips it lessened the yield. One thing all serious farmers do agree on is "super" compost it is a must use component.

 

 

 

Personally, the only difference I've notice is how often a crop will fail with my lvl 71 farming. Now I just play the odds, unless I'm growing Ranarr or higher. In fact, I prefer selling most of my Ranarr seeds for 15k or more and just killing Chaos Druids in Yanille or Banishes in Slayer Tower in Canifis for herb drops.)

 

 

 

Sorry... can't be more certain. Well, here's too good farming!

 

 

 

O-BTW - If you're talking regular crops, well, there is a significant difference in the amounts I harvest when I care for them myself vs "paying" a NPC to do it for me.... Ciao

You can't water herbs, can you? :s

 

If you try, it just says 'these dont need to be watered'

 

 

 

As for OP, i've heard from a fair few people that higher farming increases yeild, and i agree that the effect is felt more with lower level herbs. That's how it seems to me anyway.
