Getting started
Look along woodland edges; different climates and caves have different finds.
Wild food supports your travels; some finds restore mana or can be cooked.
Why train it?
Higher Foraging opens different wild foods as you explore.
Berries: 1 GC each at the Smith or Kitchen, 1 GC at the general store. Explore a route between patches. Rare finds can sell well; keep healing and mana food for your journeys.
Maximum level: 99. Open Skills in the game to see your current XP and next goal.
