WoW Herbalism Guide

Herbalism is a primary profession and is one of three gathering professions which provide a great opportunity to make gold. Some professions in WoW complement one another and in the case of Herbalism it complements both Alchemy and Inscription. The following WoW Herbalism guide will give you the basics of getting started with this profession.

As with any other profession, the first step is to locate a trainer. They are easily found in the large cities but if you do have difficultly finding one just ask a guard. You’ll often find an Alchemist near the Herbalism trainer making it really convenient to learn both.

With skill level 300-375 you can be a master in Herbalism; just head to Hellfire Peninsula for training. At skill level 375-450 Alliance players can go to Valgarde in Howling Fjord or Valiance Keep in the Borean Tundra to train to the Grand master level. Horde can head to Vengeance Landing in Howling Fjord. A WoW Herbalism guide come with the Ultimate WoW guide and will take you through level to 450 in the easiest and most profitable way.

Once your trained up you’re good to go, you won’t need and special items. The only thing to have is lot of bag space to put what you pick in. Tailors can make special bags that actually have slots for carrying herbs. Herbs and plants can be found anywhere even underwater and in cave so keep a look out for them. Don’t miss a chance to pick herbs especially because any unused ones can be stored and sold to other players in the Auction House. Get a WoW Herbalism guide that’ll help you level the fastest way possible. Once you get the Find Herb ability all the herbs that are near you will show up as yellow dots on the map, make sure to keep this ability active.

To pick a plant it’s really simple just go up to it until the action cursor is active, now you can pick it. Unless that is you don’t have the needed skill level, all plants have a minimum skill level to be picked. Also one thing to know is that easier herbs to harvest are in lower areas and harder ones are in the higher zones. As I mentioned, herbs can be found anywhere including treasure chests, instances and by killing certain monsters.

As you come across a herb you want to pick you can hover your mouse over it to get a color coding. The colors refer to the likelihood that it will increase your skill level. Here are the colors:

• Red- You can’t pick this herb because of insufficient skill
• Orange- High chance of increasing your Herbalism level
• Yellow- Moderate chance
• Green- Low Chance
• Gray- No chance of increase your skill level

Leveling to 450 is beyond the scope of this WoW Herbalism guide but as you level up to level 450 you will gain the Lifeblood ability which allows you to heal by absorb energy and nutrients from the earth. You Lifeblood power increases as you level up your Herbalism skill. There is a 3 minute cool down with is ability. In levels 1-75 you’ll be able to heal to 300 over 5 seconds. When you reach levels 350-450 you’ll be able to heal to 2000 over 5 seconds. For the most efficient leveling path for Herbalism get a WoW Herbalism Guide that’ll walk you through.
