Guild Wars 2

Are there any materials like Passion Flowers that take 3 seconds to farm and are worth quite a bit and that can be repeated daily?

- orichalcum ore
- ancient wood log

Edit:
Ok, seems like my answer was to short to understand
- Ori: Get your lvl80 char up to the Karka champion at southsun. There you have one guaranteed ori node. So it will take 10 seconds to login daily and get ~15s out of it. I’m doing this each day with 7 char, all together it takes less than 1 minute and i get more than 1 gold.
- Ancient wood: If you look for your daily passion flower then you will find always close to it at least one ancient wood node. Another 45 silver (why does the forum “4_5_s” without _ translate into “kitten”???).

Most efficient way is probably to join southsun map 5 min. before karka queen. If you walk from the left waypoint to the middle you will find at least 1 passion flower, 1 ori node, 1 ancient wood node. It takes around 2.5 minutes to walk this way, then you can usually just kill karka queen and get your daily goldi items.
All together you get on a daily basis between 2 – 4 Gold out of this in around 5 minutes.

You can harvest the herbs aroun Fort Trinity every hour for a chance of
Lemongrass. However its a little RNG.

Ori ? Its down to 3 s nearly .. not worth seeking the spots of it anymore.
T3 wood was nearly as much worth a while ago, and you can find masses
of that.

Just like other posters mentioned, there are plenty of other mats that have a decent value for the frequency of gathering.

The 3 blooming passifloras in SSC are limited to 1 harvest once per day per account, so while its definately good gold for 5 mins, you cant spam it.

1 go in a Orr map / Frostgorge Sound map / Southsun Cove map
2 type /ip in chat
3 copy it on the site
4 look on the resulting map where the rare nodes are
5 go there and mine
6 ??
7 PROFIT

ps: some guys like to put false nodes on the maps on that site, not every node will be really there. just remember that there’s a fixed number of maximum nodes for every resource in every map.

FGS isn’t worth it since a long time. I have stopped it when Ori went under 6s
because the IPs start changing a while before Clawmag event and also a while
after it and most of the time the entries were wrong and i had to made the
entries on gw2nodes.
But .. if you are in FGS .. look for snow truffels.

At some point i just decided it isn’t worth it and i can just better go harvest
iron, platin, seasoned and hard wood.

Chili peppers. So please get to farming them so the price will come back down to earth.

On that same topic all the nodes are crazy stingy and whoever is setting the rates needs to jump back. This is not Las Vegas, we paid for the game. Ease up a little before players start calling for regulations like they have in china to keep the industry from gouging the heck out of consumers…..

Well, just sold my stock of chili peppers when I saw the price. You are welcome. Then again, my wallet thanks me as well.

LOL my chef thanks you /deepbow

Poultry meat is a nice price and there are a ton of moas and raptors who would love to give it to you, if you ask nicely.

Poultry meat
Chili peppers > All herb nodes in Ascalon
Lemongrass > Cluster of Herbs in Straits of Devastation
Snow Truffles > Snow Truffle nodes in Frostgorge Sound
Orrian Truffles > Orrian truffle nodes in Orr (and some in EB)
Rosemary Sprigs > All mature and young herb nodes
Vanilla Beans > All herb nodes in Maguuma
Peppercorns > All herb sprout, young herb, and herb seedling nodes
Dill Sprigs > Young, Mature, and Verdant herb nodes in middle-to-higher level Ascalon maps
Prickly Pears > Cacti in Dry Top and SW
Passion Flowers > Southsun

Those are what I usually make a point to go for when I’m on harvesting runs. Obviously it can be a bit of a gamble, but I usually have good luck getting what I want.

Unintuitively, one of the most efficient resources is parking storage toons at rich platinum ore. That continues to be worth about 20s/day per rich node. (Even passiflora requires some walking around.)

Thanks all

So it’s pretty much lemongrass and passion flowers that are worth gathering? Pretty much, what are the ingredients that are worth 6+ silver.

Sure it can, I farmed some (Poultry) last night. And chili peppers are more like 35 silver ea. but good luck building a stack of them soon with the stingy nodes :/

There is at least one spot with high concentrations of raptors. I go there sometimes and kill them all till I get a gold or so worth of poultry meat.
