Farming UI

Farming is a production skill that allows players to grow and harvest produce. The produce can then be used in the Crafting and Cooking skill to create gear or food.


Equipment

The following items affect farming:

  • Hoes give a bonus to effective farming level, increasing the chance of a greater yield when harvesting (does not exceed the cap). Augmenting a hoe increases its farming bonus.
  • Fertilizer will increase the growth rate of a crop by 30%. The amount of fertilizer required depends on the plant's size.

Plot Size

Plot size is only affected by a player's base farming level, and not effective levels; hoes and mastery do not increase plot size.
