Best areas for stockpiling food/heal items?
« on: June 18, 2008, 09:57:33 am »
Sorry if this has been brought up before, but can anyone recommend the best areas for stockpiling food/healing items (or ingredients for such)? I've just reached the Creator and have virtually nothing that'll give a decent boost to my health. I don't mind having to run around for hours, as long as it gets the job done. :P

Cheers.

Might spoil somewhat:

Well, if you have most of the collectable items then your house is a great place. The pot in your kitchen gives lots of meat, the plants in the garden give various things, and outside there are schools of fish and some jellyfish for ever so needed oils (oh, and those eels can give oil too, you have to sing to them as they swim around you). Oh, and for rubber and tenticles there is an octopus out there too.
Home waters FTW basicly. ;)

Yes, Hiro is right. Additionally I used to roam through the lower floors of open water with beast form, to stock up some very very effective beast form shots. Just beware that they are gone if you quit and load the game (will be fixed in the 1.1 I guess).

home waters for sure, but I always would shop at the Veil Market when I was in the neighbourhood. they often had specials on shark fin soup, spicey meat, jelly oil and a fairly abundant supply of meats and oils as well.

if you are around the kelp forest there is often leaves and you might just go by it a few times during the game but that little nymph cave is stuffed full of them. anytime I'm doing turtle errands I get off at the kelp forest exchange and pick up a supply of eyeballs and eggs, there's no better place for selection, price and quality.

it's just a bit out of your way but if you head over to Mithalis Mall you should stock up on mushrooms, eel oil and then there is a strip mall just north of Ekkrit where you can also do some pretty good basic fishing and pick up some shark fins as well. this is all right at the open waters turtle turnstile so it's pretty efficient shopping but a traffic is a nightmare around there  ;)

Just one more thing, if you aim for that octopus in the Home waters, just make sure that you have a few of the healing eye poultices, and a pet helps also lol

Well, it's easy to avoid the ink. Try it next time. ;)

Most of the time I do avoid it but sometimes I don't and then I need it fast :D

Meh, ink isn't too harmful anyway, wear the jelly costume and any health damage will be negated.

I know but other things can happen while your blind especially if those two jellies and the crab haven't been dealt with before the fight, and you soon loose it if you want to kill it for the meat. :o :D
