Default Zone-specific foraging items not available until September 1999

Was looking around the Ranger forums for other things and I noticed a discussion about the "new" zone-specific foraging items in the September 13th patch:

https://web.archive.org/web/19991122...ML/000108.html

Also mentioned in the newsgroups:

Sep 15, 1999

Notice the new foraged food yet?
You can sell them for a little over a gold each.
I have noticed with the new foraged food
that it seems to be zone specific. Perhaps
they may be parts of some new quests or
new baking and brewing recipes as well?


Here are the ones I have found so far:

North Karana Wild Cabbage
South Karana Thunderhoof Mushroom
Kithicor Wild Radish
Lake Rathe Rathe Berries
Highpass Tea Leaves

Definitely intriguing to me.

Anyone add to the list?

---

Ice radish, near Halas

---

Greater Faydark - Cinnamon Sticks
Butcher Block - Aviak Eggs.

---

Gorge Moss... In Beholder's maze

---

East Commons - Griphon Eggs

---

Bag of Sea Salt - Oasis

https://groups.google.com/g/alt.game...m/DP-5AiX-Kl8J
The items they list as new all seem to be the zone-specific foraging items here:

https://wiki.project1999.com/Skill_F...cific_Foraging

Not sure if these are era-ruled already but it seems like they should be ruled for September 1999.

As I was working on implementing a quest, I needed to check forage specifics. During this, I noticed some inconsistencies of zones, so I thought I would open this up for more feedback/research.

For this test I specifically removed berries, fishing grubs, fruit, rabbit meat, roots, vegetables, and pod of water from the larger list as they are present in every zone. (They still exist in the database, but to make this readable I didn't want to clutter the results.)

Caveat: All zones have the above ^, except the following zones do not have pod of water:

Code:
cobaltscar
crystal
eastwastes
frozenshadow
greatdivide
iceclad
kael
necropolis
sirens
skyshrine
sleeper
thurgadina
thurgadinb
velketor
wakening
 westwastes
I assume this is because they have Glob of Slush Water instead?


Here is a result of each zone. (name - zone - era (if exists))

Should all zones have the possibility of berries, fishing grubs, fruit, rabbit meat, roots, vegetables, and pod of water/glob of slush water?

Are there any out of era items on the list?

Are any foraged items missing?

According to the OP, several items need timeline restrictions placed upon them. Do any others?

These are for the bard epic 1.5 in OoW, definitely out of era.

Branch of Planar Oak is probably OOE, it's for OOE wood elf cultural fletching.
Branch of Sylvan Oak is also probably OOE, it's for a tinkering recipe in PoP.

There's definitely more that I'm missing but that's what I noticed at a quick glance.

EQTraders Zone Specific Foraged Goodies (Last updated 3 December 2001)

Looks like the dragon crystals and branches were forageable in-era, but used in later quests/crafting.

New Foraged Food List(please help complete it)
John M Clancy

Foraged Food specials:

Zone Food
----------------------------------------
North Karana Wild Cabbage
South Karana Thunderhoof Mushroom
East Karana Tea Leaves
West Karana Miller Carrot
Kithicor Wild Radish
Highpass Hold Tea Leaves
Halas Ice Radish
The Gorge Gorge Moss
Butcher Block Aviak Eggs

Cities:
---------------------------

North Qeynos ????
South Qeynos ????
Qeynos Sewers ????
Rivervale ----
Oggok ????
Grobb ????
Erudin ????
Ak'Anon ????
Felwithe ????

Dungeons:

Permafrost ????
Black Burrow ????
Befallen ????
Cazic-Thule ????
Upper Guk ????
Lower Guk ????
Crushbone ????
Najena ????
Nagafen's Lair ????
Solusek's Eye ????

Notes:

I have confirmed most of these.

It looks like most cities don't have foraged specials.
I foraged for a long time and never found anything in Rivervale.
However, Halas does. Wouldn't it be funny if a quest
needed food foraged from Neriak?

Dungeons seem rather barren as well. With one exception
again, that being Mistmoore.

Doesn't is seem like the Ocean of tears and the
Oasis of Marr have their food switched? Coding error?

If you have any additions or corrections
please post them.

Thanks
I think the bulk of the old world unique forages can be flagged for Sep1999.

Plains Pebble? New foraged item
John M Clancy
Apr 13, 2000, 7:00:00 AM

Plains Pebble (looks like a blue gem)

It is a new foraged item in the karanas. I foraged one in north
and south karana. It is no drop but not lore, not stackable.

Must be for a quest. does anyone know?

Planes Pebble
Mhortaki | 4/25/2000 2:34:30 PM

As a forager I have of late started to forage up a blue crystal looking object in S Karana that is called a Planes Pebble. Aftr hours of trying to discover its purpose I have been unsuccesful. The item is no drop so i cant even give it away. If you have any information regarding the mystery surrounding this object pls let me know.

Plains Pebble Use Revealed
lion...@shell.flite.net
Sep 20, 2000, 7:00:00 AM

On the news of the day at eqdruids.com, it was announced that there is
a new level 29 druid spell called Imbue Plains Pebble
that will turn
a foraged plains pebble into a magic one that can be used in smithing.

I assume that is for the new colored armour though that was not stated
in the announcement.

The spell can be purchased at the NK gypsy camp.

There was also a new spell "Imbue Emerald", also for smithing. The
location for purchase of that spell was not given.

BTW, Imbued items are tradeable, so this may be a nice little money
maker for level 29 druids if there is a demand for colored armor :-)

Indeed, all iksars have forage, capped at 50.

These plains pebbles used to be no drop, but aren't any more. My ranger foraged them in the Karanas when they were no drop, he only started foraging these and other special items at skill 100, which is why people assume iksars can't forage special items, but I assume this must be different for iksars.

Although Iksar foraging is capped at 50, Iksar forage from the entire forage table, so they can get any of the special forages in a zone.

Plains pebbles are also used in cultural armor, and the reason the nodrop tag was removed from them is so that they can be given to a cleric at some point.
Looks like the NO DROP flag was removed from the Plains Pebble with the introduction of the Imbue Plains Pebble and Imbue Emerald spells in Sep2000.

Misty Acorns and Yew Leaves weren't on the forage table until Nov2001. Prior to this, they were ground-spawn only.

Misty acorns
By: Dandru
Posted @ Sun, Dec 17th 7:54 AM 2000

one thing you might want to remember is that misty acorns are NOT foraged, I have completed the quest and you can find misty acorns on the ground in misty thicket, they look like coins on the ground or something. I found my acorn on the upper level mob side of the wall near the orc camps kinda. All and all this quest took me about 7 hours to complete, but thats just because 2 of the forages were especially hard, those being the fireflare seeds in the FoB and the emerald orange from the EJ or TT, I think it is because there are several "rare" forages from these zones, and my luck just wasnt with me those days [You must be logged in to view images.

Re: Fan Faire Brief Note

I was there for about an hour, Daniel Enright was the sole person in the hot seat in the front of the room.

Things he said he would look into:
Drop rate of Swirling mists.
drop rate of HQ pieces of ore.
Making cultural pelts stack.
Adding yew leaves to the foraging table (even he admits that they sometimes spawn at the tops of trees, and was disappointed in the graphic chosen, but that any new picture would have to wait till after the release of SoL).
Some idols are not equipable by the listed races and classes even when worshiping the correct deity: Rallos zek and shadow knights was the example someone gave to him.

Yesterday's patch changed fishing and foraging a tad, and as word comes in, the site will be updated with more information. So far, we've got verification that yew leaves and misty acorns can now be foraged, if rarely. Cinnamon sticks are also now live, and folks will be trying to pin down the trivial for Pixie Powdered Cinnesticks (it trivials somewhere above 174!). Still no word on a verified recipe for the brellium chain, though there's even a few gnomes who've decided to try and see if they can figure out a working recipe.

Per this comment, the Misty Acorn ground spawns are flagged for Velious. This flag could be moved to Nov2000.

Two separate entries added to Everlore, one day apart:

Misty Acorns
Zalamieer | 11/20/2000 7:00:22 PM

I've been finding 'misty acorns' on the ground all over Misty Thicket. It is a stackable item.

Does anyone know what they are for? Someone mentioned in passing that they are for a new armor quest.

Any help would be appreciated.
This lines up with the release of the Halfling Cultural armor and the pieces of HQ ore discussed here.
