Um I’m new to the game I’m not sure if I’m posting this in the right spot so…. Anyway I’ve bought the 3 tools for gathering/harvesting but I can’t seem to find nodes anywhere. I’m lvl 7 so far is there a certain level you must be to start gathering?

Yes there is a certain level I do not recall what it is but it should not be too far off for you.

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

Thanks for the reply I was starting to think I was doing something wrong. I watched a beginners guide and he was gathering at level 2 but maybe that was changed the video was from 2014

The starting zones have no nodes until you are fighting creatures and doing hearts that are higher than level 6/7.

For Queensdale this means on the other side of the mountains south of the reservoir and east of the tutorial fort (Shaemoor).

Wayfarer Foothills – North of where you killed Issomir

Plains of Ashford – East of the mountains/gate across from the Citadel.

Caldeon Forest – North of the Giant tower where a Hero Point turns you into a bellossom for a few seconds and northwest of the heart where you kill grasping hands and light lamps.

Metrica Provice – North of the Golem Arena/mountains above the ooze testing area.

Basically, if you ran along and someone said something along the lines of ‘the creatures up ahead are stronger, you might want to train a bit more’ go past them and you’ll start finding nodes.

This was a change that happened with the NPE update, before that you could find nodes just outside of the capital cities. You can still harvest at level 2, you just need to go to level 6/7+ areas to do it.

I think around level 8 you get all three tools, though with low charges as a reward. First time for that, allow you to unlock seeing the nodes then i believe.
