Guild Wars 2

I just ran the entire map of Straights of Devastation and harvested fourteen (14) Cayenne Peppers and one (1) Lemongrass.

If unhappy with the harvest of Cayenne Peppers, I can just go to Fireheart Rise and harvest more. But since the only place you can harvest Lemongrass is Straights of Devastation – you are just out of luck! (http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Lemongrass)

ANet makes achievements and rewards at the upper end more difficult, hence the scarcity of resources such as Ancient Wood, Orichalcum Ore, or Omnomberries – but I can still harvest dozens of the wood and ore, and at least a dozen of the omnomberries daily, PER CHARACTER.

Lemongrass is NOT a multiple vitamin – ANet needs to fix this…. Nuff said.

There’s usually a fair bit outside of Fort Trinity.

just checked. 3 total herb patches in the general area. only 1 gave lemon grass. even if all 3 had, still….

Try guesting on different servers. Not all nodes are in the same places.

This. There are 5-6 Herb Patches in the greener zone between Fort Trinity and Mount Maelstrom on my server (Ruins of Surmia). I run 3 characters there twice a day and average 15-20 lemongrass daily. If 3 chars isn’t an option, just run 1 char hourly when you can, it should add-up within a day or two. At least after the initial run you’ll know where to find them.

But I agree, the nodes are few enough in this zone, no need to throw stuff like tarragon leaves or garlic in the mix, I’d be happier if it was a split 50% chance between coriander seeds and lemongrass.

What Valandil said, gather then guest. repeat. If you have several alts very easy to get a stack a week. Seems those nodes have a pretty quick respawn rate to.

Good luck finding Vicious Claws as well, their drop rate is horrible. Apparently they do drop from something cuz I had some in the bank but after killing many mobs that supposedly drop them – zero, zilch, nada. Bad luck with RNG or really low drop rate maybe?

Farm some icebrood outside of frostgorge sound and you’ll start noticing T6 claws (and sometimes even bones) coming your way.
