Gathering progression is a fame race, and you win it by hitting a lot of cheap nodes fast instead of a few rare ones slowly. Most players who feel stuck at T6 spend their evenings riding between T7 nodes. Gather the plentiful lower tiers in the matching gear and the unlocks come much sooner.
Pick one resource
Five lines exist: wood, ore, fiber, hide and stone. Each levels on its own, and gathering gear only boosts its own resource. Splitting your time early means levelling two lines at half speed.
| Resource | Tool | Gear set |
|---|---|---|
| Ore | Pickaxe | Miner |
| Wood | Axe | Lumberjack |
| Fiber | Sickle | Harvester |
| Hide | Skinning Knife | Skinner |
| Stone | Stone Hammer | Quarrier |
Choose by where you play and what sells:
- The common resource of the biome around your city levels fastest because you find more of it.
- Hide means killing resource mobs. Since Dragonfire those mobs are less aggressive and fewer pull from range, which makes solo skinning smoother than it was.
- Check this week's prices in the Market Explorer if you also want the silver.
