Guild Wars 2

Does anyone know whether the Harvesting Node output is effected by the level/type of sickle you use on it?

For example if I use a Steel sickle on this Basic Harvesting herb node, will I only get harvesting mats found in the drop tables of Young Herbs nodes, whereas if I use an mithril sickle I will get drops from Verdant Herbs nodes? In other words, can we pick what material tables will roll the drops based on the sickle type?

Nope. I’ve harvested Vanilla (T1 herbs), Sage Leaves (T2) and Rosemary (T3) all from the same node in DR using a Thresher sickle. It’s completely random, and the loot table seems to be region-independent.

I use only orichalcum sickles now. The mats from nodes depend on the node level.
