Greetings fellow Goblins!
Some of you may of heard about the Seed Raid Discord, some of you might have not. Not to worry!
Most information used in this guide will be from the
The Ultimate Seed Raid Guide which
/u/cannotgameinanair made.
What are Seed Raids
Seed Raids are raids consisting of exactly 10 people who are grouping up to plant their Legion Herbalism Seeds. Groups always consist of 10 players, not more, not less. The reason behind this is that a planted Legion Herbalism Seed can be gathered by up to 10 people. Therefore, only 10 people are allowed to a raid and to maximize profits you always take 10 players! You can make up to even 100k profit per hour if you have a good server for that. Unfortunately, there are servers these might not be profitable.
Currently there are seven types of Seed in Legion:
Семечко айтрила,
Семечко грезолиста,
Семечко фьярнскаггла,
Семечко лисоцвета,
Семечко звездной розы,
Семечко зверобоя Скверны and
Семя Изеры. However, only the first five of those can be planted and are used in Seed Raids.
Семя Изеры can not be planted and do not produce an herb node. Felwort on the other hand can be planted and do produce an herb node, but this herb node can only be gathered by one person. Therefore, it is not used during Seed Raids. However, you can use it to trade for regular seeds in the #seed-trade channel.
How do I get into the action myself?
In order to get in on the action yourself you can visit the
Seed Raid Discord. Once you have joined the Discord Server there is a 10 minute timer, which keeps you from talking, but gives you time to read up on the
#welcome and
#faq channel. After your 10 minutes have passed you can then enroll yourself into the correct region(s) and faction(s) as you desire, by using the following commands in the #role-request channel and reacting in
#get-roles.
If you already have Aethril and Felwort Rank 3, you should head to #role-request and do as followed in pinned message :D
Preparations for a Seed Raid
In order to participate in Seed Raids, you need a level 110 character with Herbalism. Besides that, you of course need some Legion Seeds!
How do I obtain seeds?
There are three ways to acquire seeds:
- Farming them by herbing nodes across Broken Isles (after you have Felwort Rank 3).
- Herbalism World Quest Rewards (These are rare, we post them in #announcements when they happen).
- Trading or buying them from the Auction House.
If you decide to farm them yourself you need Felwort Rank 3, as this allows you to occasionally loot seeds while gathering herbs across the Broken Isles. In order to get the Felwort Rank 3 you will need a lvl 110 herbalist character and defeating Cenarius in the Emerald Nightmare raid (can be done in LFR). The best and most efficient way is (you guessed it) through the Auction House.
How many seeds do I need?
The amount and type of seeds varies on each raid and depends on several factors, such as the amount of seeds other raiders have, the available time and which rules the Seed Organizer sets for the raid. Always verify your understanding of the rules for the run with the organizer running it! The most usual Seed Raid sizes are for 50 and 100 seeds. As an estimate, 50 seed raids take about 25 minutes to 1h to complete and 100 seeds 50 minutes or any other amount the Seed Organizer states.
Where do Seed Raids take place?
The raid usually take place near Felblaze Ingress in Azsuna.
What are the Seed Raid Rules?
The Seed Raid Rules are these, where you need to have the seedling role to attend raids, without it, you can't join a raid!
Felwort Rank 3 Required. The
Зверобой Скверны Rank 3 is required, because they give you additional seeds from the Seed Raid (usually it's around 30% seeds which you plant)
Aethril Rank 3 Required.
Айтрил Rank 3 is required by the fact they spawn additional nodes when herbing, which increases amount of herbs you get from a raid.
