Farming

Green Hills County

The long plain west of Barradin Estate (see picture on the right) has roughly 30 Aloe Seeds and Aloe Husks spread across it. Almost all foes are non-hostile and the area also features numerous bandits and elementals in the northern cave, making it also good to reduce loot scaling and farm Enchanted Lodestones and/or Worn Belts. Focusing on the seeds only, one run is expected to take around 7 minutes.

Alternatively, the quest The Vineyard Problem spawns a group of 9 plants to the east of the outpost, which can be killed in under 1 minute per run as long as the quest isn't completed. Although this run is undermined by loot scaling, doing a small detour to the west (see path 2 on the second picture) allows to kill a few additional 3-5 seeds and some elementals while increasing the run duration to a bit above 2 minutes. However, this run requires the player to be warrior primary or secondary and abandon and retake the quest (as well as discarding the Starter Axe Little Thom hands out) every time. This process is easier with a secondary account.

The Northlands

If seeking to also farm experience, the Northlands have a decent number of level 5 Oakhearts throughout their western side. If you do not care about the survivor title, you can rezone faster by letting a group of Charr kill you in order to be resurrected at the entrance shrine. Rezoning is easier with a secondary account.
