[@TeddyTwighlite]

I tried to get as much as I could for Gathering and anything I could think that could help with Gathering but if there's anything missing please let me know! It was a long couple days getting everything ready for this and after not posting an updated guide in a year, here it is and I hope it either helps you out or you just enjoyed it! Keep Gathering out there!

[@mmo-king4180]

Teddy, Thank you for making videos that help us understand life skills! You are awesome and amazing! Keep it up!

[@PandaPowerable]

The timing of your video is perfect! I just started a season Shai character with the aim of getting into gathering 🙏

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Aaaaye there we goooo! Hope it helps you!

[@BanXxX69]

Oh wow! Really wholesome! Didnt know about Lighstone combi!

[@Guaglionejjuv77]

I sold everything to buy a tet black star and tried to use the 2 free j hammers and it went pen! Sold it and got 115 bil, so I managed to buy full tet manos accs and tet manos hunting, I’m so happy!

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Grats

[@dectocs]

Holllly haha big money maneuvers!!

[@Guaglionejjuv77]

@@dectocs last night i went on a gamble spree and pen roulette all the tet manos i bought plus the tet manos hunting cloth. i got a pen manos belt that i then sold for 150bil - tax and proceeded to get my hunting back to tet with 1.5 bil. after all these i was left with around 25 bil profit xD im that crazy yes

[@aaya204]

Great guide, well explained 👏 appreciated the effort u put on this guides ,thanks 😊

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Aww thank you! I'm glad you liked it and this wouldn't be fun without viewers like you :)

[@citraterranova1431]

Thank you for helping!! lifeskilling is kinda confusing

[@MadeForJapan]

Best guide ever for life skil :X:X

[@Gyva02]

So many things to keep track of, I think you need a spread sheet to keep it all straight. 😳

[@Weamz]

I feel so lowly just using magic tools and silver embroided +2s and sharp life stone

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Don't worry. With some time and investments, it's easy to get up to this point. A great way to get a start on it all is to use mob grinding as a way to pay for the gear ya want

[@SkywalkFPV]

Amazing collection of knowledge, thank you! I do wonder how you get Agris up to 90k and have it drop 150% instead of 100%, does it all have to do with that book of Margahan?

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Yep, I'd check out both journals. They're easy to do

[@frankdolores6199]

can u rank the gears and recommend which one to get thats good mid lvl while saving to get the best gear

[@joseflowery]

drak is also amazing for gathering, especially dead tree essence

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Out in drieghan, kama, or LoML?

[@joseflowery]

@@TeddyTwighlite garmoth primarily, makes looping from top to bottom effortless

[@RexxyRobin]

This chance might be so low it is almost irrelevant, but the lustrous gems you can proc while mining can also contain an iridescent lightstone

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Oh? Ooo even better but I know the drop rate is something really small on it like 1/2000

[@waffleswafflson3076]

I had to make a choice between warrior or musa. From the sound of things, I made the right one

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Lol you chose Musa didn't ya lol 😆

[@waffleswafflson3076]

@@TeddyTwighlite Nah :P

[@lutidus]

could you make a video of the collection sites in the land of dawn?

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Sure!

[@anrilazashvili2014]

I love your videos ty for it. As a beginner player, I am baffled about energy, how to increase it, etc Also I heard that Shai is better for gathering and life skilling, but I started as Drakania and now I lost motivation to play with her, now that I heard about Shai : ( could you make a video about energy? also is there going to be a problem if I keep playing as Drakania if I want to mainly do life skilling? thank you again

[@TeddyTwighlite]

I have a video on recovering the most energy but to increase just complete as much knowledge topics uou can. The ecology is the easiest to do

[@anrilazashvili2014]

@@TeddyTwighlite and could you give me some adivice about the classes, that I asked? or I am ok for now, I started bdo 1 week ago :D

[@TeddyTwighlite]

@anrilazashvili2014 striker is better at hunting with the crit, tamer is better with trainining, musa is I guess good at everything, Shai has the gathering and alchemy passive, and corsair is good at underwater gathering. Not really sure on other classes though so you might wanna check class passives

[@anrilazashvili2014]

@@TeddyTwighlite thank you so much

[@vannamite6402]

Hello, do you have gear progression guide?

[@mikeaxer1625]

Do you know which is better, the drop rate artifacts or the mastery artifacts

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Not sure between the 2 I just stick to the item drop rate. Mastery might be better if it helps meet a new bracket like 1600 1800 and 2k Mastery

[@ricsisallai3542]

Hello mate, just want to ask you that, how i can gather more item? /gather ? I mean, i saw some player get 20 meal / gather

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Agris Enabled, using the hedgehog or llama pet, yawning hedgehog lightstone combination, and rarely do we get buff items to increase it. Higher Mastery increases the amount you can get too

[@tylerdavis7359]

Does console have artifacts, if not when will they get it

[@TheBlizzG]

I have a question about life skilling . Is it better to have all your life skills on one character or different life skills across multiple characters? Thanks in advance!

[@TeddyTwighlite]

I'd get alts set up to do certain lifeskills to speed up how quickly you can do it for example, a cook alt is ready to cook in Calpheon after Gathering in Duvencrune or a trader alt in nampo for when you want to turn in crates but dont want to travel out there

[@therealexpletive]

@@TeddyTwighlite dont forget each alt has their own pool of ENERGY!!! :)

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Not to mention the shared family lifeskills will change everything to a point lol

[@ztan7271]

Thank you for the guide. Im still confused about green thumb gathering, from when i turn it on i always end up with less materials, and it seemed like it didnt benefit from hedgehog or the 30% chance of no energy consumption. Was it confirmed taht hedgehog does indeed apply times 10 on green thumb gathering? i seemed to apply only once when i checked.

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Hedgehog and the agris applies to the items gathered while the mini game only increases the amount by 10x though it doesn't lower any amount. Mini game drops and energy aren't affected by hedgy and agris since their in the mini game and not the actual gathering.

[@kendrickguo]

@@TeddyTwighlitedo I need do this quest for every character? Or is it just one time for family to unlock?

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Unlocked account wide

[@kendrickguo]

Nice!!!@@TeddyTwighlite

[@SkywalkFPV]

I just figured I am not able to get the crystals of durability in the marketplace.. I don`t know hot to fill these slots efficiently, durability reduction would make sense for sure - are they removed?! o.0..

[@TeddyTwighlite]

They were removed with the crystal update. Sadly no other way than to use brand stones and pets for durability loss

[@babyfish4111]

Teddy could you do a short vid on were to get sea lion meat...Been looking all over LOML can't find it and google no help lol

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Lion meat is in the mainland. I covered it for in making valenicia meals :)

[@kito8968]

whats going on with audio xdd (noise in the background), good vid tho learnt a lot

[@jonathanalvar1234]

How do i get pets?? Is there any way to buy them at the store?

[@TeddyTwighlite]

There are quests that has either companion or pet in the title or the Central Market and events

[@corbenikgaming7688]

Yeah I came back and found that I hate the fact that they removed the gathering level crystals that let you gather faster

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Not reeally.. I have 10 of the dim crystals we used to have that were only limited to 2 and was only +3% each

[@TeddyTwighlite]

I got 4 gathering before the land of the Morning Light

[@noeltage]

Is it important enough to gather as Shy ? I don't have one.

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Not really. They only come with more weight limit than others, higher gather and alchemy levels at the Start while giving +300% combat exp when performing them.

[@noeltage]

@@TeddyTwighlite Thank you.

[@Haz3Nation]

I dnt see the progression pass at all…is it only a non season server thing

[@TeddyTwighlite]

It might be, I havent done seasons since drak

[@Haz3Nation]

@@TeddyTwighlite ah ok

[@user-vl8jv1tl5e]

worth buying pen gathers currently ?? . I have 1500 mastery with tet loggia. no gems. tet loggia. tet granola gathers. pen butch / hoe

[@TeddyTwighlite]

That's up to you. If you make enough to go to manos then go ahead lol

[@ConfusedGamer101]

Sadge that there is no lifeskill progression pass left

[@TeddyTwighlite]

I'm finding that out myself

[@nicolasbram165]

imo skipping blue gear and straight to manos is bad idea.. tet loggia tool and cloth give 400 mastery and cost about 900 mil.. tet blue tool and cloth give u 500 mastery and cost u about 1.5 bil.. tet manos tool and cloth give u 600 mastery and cost u about 8 bil.. so for 100 mastery from loggia cost u 600m or 6m/mastery but from loggia to manos will cost u about 7b that is about 35m/mastery for me the silver/mastery is just to high if u dont plan to gather 24/7..

[@KingJerbear]

The point is that TET Loggia get you 90% of the way there. There is no need to upgrade further unless you want to have the major investment of going towards Manos, whether it be TRI or TET. You can keep the loggia gear and just grab a single TET Manos tool cheap and have huge upgrade

[@nicolasbram165]

@@KingJerbear lol how can 100 mastery is a huge upgrade?? its not like cooking where the box price or the proc matter that much.. and for the cost of tet manos tool u can buy tet blue cloth and 2 -3 tet blue tools which more cost friendly with the same amount of mastery and u dont stuck with only 1 gathering tool until ur next 3b

[@TeddyTwighlite]

I forget people tend to just buy everything and look at the game through a silver per hour cost and min max meta playing. I guess I should have said Manos is for the players that can aren't broke. You can always just mob grind and get everything you need :D seems like more your pace

[@nicolasbram165]

@@TeddyTwighlite sure if u have extra silver to burn without care for the world.. but for a "begginer guide" its very weird to assume every begginer have extra 10b to burn.. and just mob grind is just lame excuse.. for begginer earning 1b is gonna take them a long time and with so many thing to spend its better to go for the most cost efficient instead of just burn it on some thing that not gonna give u a lot of advantage.. its like telling someone with who use naru to skip tuvalla and go straight for blackstar its just bad advice

[@JTruong3rd]

sadly the season changes massively made it harder for season characters

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Why's that?

[@JTruong3rd]

@FinalsTwin Besides artifacts, all gear with mastery is barred from being equipped, some life skills got more tedious to raise like processing due to the lack of useable processing stone.

[@tamba7055]

Thank you so much for this guide. Just got into lifeskilling (mining) 2 weeks ago and have been lost. Do you think pilgrams haven is a good spot to mine?

[@monowhoma2641]

yes, the best mining spot for sure

[@TeddyTwighlite]

Yesssssssss! Do it!!
