Harvesting

Gather plants and materials

Beginner Updated Jan 6, 2025

Overview

Harvesting is the simplest lifeskill — no tool required! Simply walk up to plants and hold E to gather them. There are 8 different plants you can harvest, ranging from common Flax and Wheat to rare Moonpetals and Veilcap Mushrooms.

Harvested materials are used for crafting clothing, potions, and other items. As your Harvesting level increases, you'll gather faster and obtain more resources per harvest.

No tools needed! Harvesting can be done with just your hands — perfect for new players.

  2. 2 Approach within 8 studs of the plant
  3. 3 Press and hold E for 2 seconds
  4. 4 Collect your harvest and gain Harvesting EXP!

Tips

Plants respawn after a random delay at random spawn nodes — check back often for new spawns!
No tool required — harvesting is the perfect lifeskill to level while saving up for pickaxes and axes.
Hunt for rare plants — Moonpetal, Thornberry, and Veilcap Mushroom only have a low spawn chance, but can be used to brew powerful potions.
Level up for massive yields — at max bonus, you'll get 3x the resources per harvest.
Gather while traveling — pick up plants as you explore to build up crafting materials over time.
