Harvesting

Crawlers' Nest

Deep in the heart of Derfland lies a labyrinth of twisting tunnels, where many creatures make their nest. The Iron Musketeers in collaboration with the Department of Industry have designated new sites to search for valuable resources in this previously untapped area. This area will become available after completing a quest.
(Requires Quest: Thread Bare)

Pashhow Marshlands

The thriving marsh of Derfland is home to a diverse array of creatures. While seeming an unlikely place to strike rich, this area has become of increasing significance to botanists and alchemists who seek fresh materials for their own interests.
