If there’s anything Lost Ark isn’t short on, it’s various activities and events that you can hop in and out of when you feel the need. You can even scour the landscape for plants to pick; it’s called Foraging. And yes, it’s a useful skill. Foraging is great for crafting potions (that could save your life), so you’ll need to know the top 5 places to level up foraging in Lost Ark.
Delphi Forest
Top 5 Places to Level Up Foraging in Lost Ark
Early on, you’ll need the most optimal zone to level up your Foraging skill. In that case, you’ll want to visit Delphi Forest. For starters, tier 1 flowers will spawn in abundance. And, if you’re lucky, you might come across tier 2 flowers, too. The higher the tier, the more experience you’ll earn for picking them.
Medrick Monastery
Top 5 Places to Level Up Foraging in Lost Ark
If you don’t mind tasting a little danger, then venture into the Medrick Monastery to level up your Foraging skill in Lost Ark. Unlike Delphi Forest, Medrick Monastery is home to tier 2 flowers that spawn more frequently. Don’t worry about the enemies that roam; you can quickly defeat them.
Lullaby Island
Top 5 Places to Level Up Foraging in Lost Ark
What’s special about Lullaby Island is not only is it good for leveling up Foraging, it’s also good for Mining and Logging, too. It isn’t very big either; you can constantly circle the island in no time, ad infinitum. Most importantly, you won’t run into any beasties, making it one of the safest areas to level up Foraging.
Slime Island
Top 5 Places to Level Up Foraging in Lost Ark
If Lullaby Island is the safest and quietest, then Slime Island is on the other end of the spectrum. Slime Island is a PVP zone, so players can and will attack you given the opportunity. Tough monsters also roam the area. Unfortunately, it’s also one of the top five places to level up Foraging in Lost Ark.
We recommend equipping movement speed abilities, dashes, teleports—anything you have at your disposal that allows you to move as quickly as possible and away from other players trying to attack. Alternatively, you can also wait until you’ve gathered a set of endgame gear.
Platinum Fields – Nahun’s Domain
Top 5 Places to Level Up Foraging in Lost Ark
You’re improving your trade skills and happen upon a special ticket, the Platinum Field Ticket. It’s essentially like winning the Golden Ticket from Willy Wonka, because if you obtain one, you can access a zone that is by far the best place to level up Foraging, Logging, Mining, Fishing, Hunting, and Excavating.
Unfortunately, finding one is random. What you can at least count on is that Platinum Field Tickets drop whenever you’re using any of your trade skills. If one does drop, hold onto to it until your trade skills are level 10. That way every node is available for gathering.
When you use your Platinum Field Ticket in Lost Ark, two paths will be available: Old Yudian Canal and Nahun’s Domain. To level up Foraging, choose Nahun’s Domain.
And that wraps up our guide on the top 5 places to level up Foraging in Lost Ark. Since you’re leveling up trade skills, considering checking out our guide on Fishing, too.
