Is it just me, or do herb spawns seem really low? I'm on Darrowshire, and whenever I go to farm Dreamfoil in Azshara, there's almost nothing. I've got all the spawn points added in Gatherer, and I take a route from Valormak all the way up through the northern half of the zone, passing by every spawn point along the way. I never find more than 3 nodes.

 

And then when I go back along that route, nothing is respawned and I don't find any more nodes. I check /who and there's only 2 other people in the zone. Check /who on the other faction and there's only 3.

 

Am I doing something wrong, or are the herb spawn rates just really low?

The spawn rates have decreased since the influx of people that hit the server have vanished.  Dynamic has been reduced back to normal which puts Dreamfoil in Azshara back to the normal 30-45 min Respawn timer roughly per node... There are a few that are 3 min spawns but thats about 3-5 of them.

 

Honestly, When i herbed Azshara, I did 3-5 rounds and stopped for 2 hours and came back.  Also, I moved on to Winterspring / Ungoro for nodes as well.  Its kind of hit and miss.

Its actually good if you find some herbs during first circle in azshara. Also gatherer database you are using is different than what we have here. Some spawns are same but most are not. That includes black lotuses spawns also. Different than importet db unless you got it from herbalist here. my suggestion is to delete db and make your own spawns as you go and get addon that also tracks respawn time.

No, it's not.

 

I didn't import someone's gatherer DB, I looked up the spawns on Vanillagaming and manually added them into Gatherer.

 

I have not found a single Dreamfoil spawn outside of the positions listed here: http://db.vanillagaming.org/?object=176584

Why did you add them manually database is the same??? Muh logic, just do disagree i see. Database that comes with that 1.12.1 addon collection passed around everywhere is not the same ad herb spawns here its a mix.

I didn't use the 1.12.1 addon collection. I downloaded Gatherer separately and manually added the Dreamfoil spawns in Azshara, from Vanillagaming.

 

I have not found a single Dreamfoil outside of any of those spawn points from Vanillagaming.

quality post as always :)

Don't be so passive aggressive.

My statement implies that the herb spawns have been so bad that the best herbs are becoming stupidly expensive.

It's almost like there's a bunch of new raid content on the horizon that has driven up demand for herbs...

Not really. Everyone is stacking up on consums even more now. Its not unusual for people to have up to 50 stacks on elixirs 10,20 flasks,hundreds of stacks of potions and food. Most people in my guild have at least this ammount to last 4 hours 2 nights a week for next 1-2 months.

Trick to get herbs is park your alt in epl and wait for server to crash. After that log fast abd collect. This way t ou alwayst get 5-6 spawns and if lucky also black lotus.

Blizlike spawntimers. Changing it to faster spawn would not change ah prices since people dont herb to make money atm those that do are minority.

Do you want this custom feature on realm with 3-4k players? Population is low enough for herb timers as it is. 

Sure next thing will be black lotus vendor is the city. After that flask and elixir vendor and next thing we have instant 60 with prebis.

Stop demanding custom changes.

Everyone is noticing the slow respawns. There are relatively the same number of people farming for herbs in any given zone yet nodes are respawning very slowly compared to what it once was when the nostalrius respawn system was in place. Obviously they took that out and replaced it with their own code.

When Nostalrius introduced a dynamic respawn system the playerbase was pretty happy with it. It really helped the server economy. It is a fallacy to believe that increasing the rate at which herbs respawn is going to lead to vendors that sell black lotus.

where did i even demand to have anything changed? im just saying for months the spawn rate has been twice as fast as it is now. you say the only reason for price increase is because of aq coming out but i could get a chance at black lotus every 15 minutes and a stack of dreamfoil in a few loops. obviously its more then just the new raid coming out. you make me sick

Lets remain civil here guys...

 

The Herb spawns are on normal timers... Yes, there is 3-4k people playing, Yes, people are stocking up as well, Yes, the price hike is happening...

There could be factors that are pushing this...  

  1. Anathema (AQ War Effort) seeing MORE people out farming for turn ins
  2. Spawn timers are back to normal now that the initial 3 month period of new life has worn off and people left the game
  3. other unsaid factors...

We have to remember that if something is wrong, we can always post in the bug reporting section and have it looked into.
