Sometimes when I'm in the wilds, I may see some cool looking flower or bush or something. Some old tree stump, or maybe an odd looking rock.

Without fail I just HAVE to /forage there just on the off chance I find some rare berry or old forgotten relic.

Funnily enough, I'm yet to find this "rare" item, just lurking under the shade of that ol' tree, or by the sunken lichen-covered bridge, but I will find it. If it's there, it's just one /forage away.

I'm just the opposite. I will try to /forage in the most obscure places. It's amazing what you can find on top of your guild hall or in the fire while camping. No rare items yet...

I forage at the Star Ports often. Nothing there either.

They removed the rare find in beta. They thought that peeps would make forage macros to get SEA's and such. Funny tho, they still have not fixed the Borgle Cave...

I use it to feed Achilles and Simba.

Oh don't get me wrong. I know exactly what the things I can find are, all of which I don't need.

I just do it because I have this romantic notion that when I see this strange looking piece of land or plantlife, you just never know... (even though I do perfectly well).

I just can't help but to let Camby dig around by that strange looking plant, or old stone carving. I know well enough she won't find anything, but she doesn't.

I'd love it for the devs ro covertly put in these rare spawnsby selected trees and plants. So there you are, out in the wilderness when you espy an amazingly rare plant known to produce these special berries, let's have a dig around then... /forage

Would certainly make adventuring on foot even more fun.

They fixed that just before the Corvette patch. Caves, if they drop anything, drop +1's only. Now all the SEA's are coming off the Corvette, NS elders, Tuskens, high level faction NPCs,and Lord Nyax ( most of the time already in clothing).

Oh I only wish the forage system worked that way in SWG but sadly it doesn't

It seems to me that its just a random item from a list for that particular region. It would be pretty sweet if they did revamp the forage system though.

In Morrowind, different plants were actually containers so "foraging" was more like pulling the item from the plants inventory. I also read in World of Warcraft they're going to have a node system, and as you go up the hunting/foraging class you'll actually be able to recognize different nodes for better items. Maybe we could get a system like that?

There are 10 types of people in this world... those who know binary and those who don't.
