High level planting distribution

Is it just me or is high level planting material distribution completely messed up? Here is what I get for woods, for example.

L61 seed
Ancient Spirit Oak
Fastan Banyan
Dragon Beard Root
Fairywood

L67 seed
Ancient Spirit Oak
Fastan Banyan
Dragon Beard Root
Aeontree

L73 seed
Ancient Spirit Oak
Ancient Spirit Oak
Fastan Banyan
Aeontree

For all 3 levels, Ancient Spirit Oak is the first, and it seems like pretty much all I get. I get almost every plant giving me Oak, and I am lucky to get 2 Fastan Banyans a day. Same pattern for herbs - tons of Thorn apple, almost no Verbena. Metals? Olivine is stuck behind Rune Obsidian and virtually impossible to get.

Is it just continuing bad luck or have they really messed up distribution and made L63 mats hard to get in quantity? All the other levels seem to have "if you want this mat, use this level seed" pattern. At high end, not so.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

Hiya wiffo, ya i have to agree with you there, they have it all messed up, as well as you cannot for the most part get the materials from planting to do most of the level 70+ crafting either, its either a green when you need blue (which is ok if you can get someone to process it) or whats worse is its blue when you need green, thats where you are hooped!!! cant reverse the mat... You are also so correct, you get so many of the mats that most people dont even want, lol, but i guess the is ok for guild donations, that is what I do with those that dont sell. Overall though, i do think they need to do a bit of "tweeking" to the seeds and mats, somehow someone messed it up. Have a great day :)

By using the best soil and water level 63 and 67 seeds, i always get at least 32 Fastan banyan lumber and every 2 days i get 64. I water them all the way to 96% at the start and then 12 hours later the same and little bit before harvesting them. Try it.

I get the same for the Verbena juice.

Works for me, hope it helps.

You have to use the 55 seeds to hit 61 first, iirc.

Try the same guy you talked in Varenas - master planter. Don't you think he might have some master seeds?

They are located in Varanas in Lower West..You have to complete a growing quest to get your master planter qualifications to get xp past lvl 60.

I did not have to complete any quests to get past lvl 60?! Of course, I am special. :)

Sorry, I missed your question. Expert Seed Vendor is in Crafting Square in Obsidian Stronghold, just as Inferiority has said. Don't mix it with regular seed vendor.

I wish so much that I could go to OS for planting instead of Varanas. 3 different characters for planting = a lot of crashing.

There is no quest to get past 60. You talk to the Master Planter and you automatically get qualified to level to 80.

Edit: Crap, double post. Sorry >.<.

Meh. It is not like it is difficult to stock up.

Meanwhile, the distribution sucks more than ever. They took the normal progression (level of seed roughly equal level of mat) that worked up to 60, then stretched 60 to 80 seeds to cover essentially L63 mats. Then they realized they need L70 mats, and now L75 mats so they are all dumped into the last seed.

How mind-numbingly stupid that is? I can understand the initial stretch, but once they realized they need to put more mats, the right thing to do would not be cramming it all on last seed, the right thing would be to take L61, L67, L73 and L79 and try to distribute the mats more evenly. What they done is what we, programmers, call fustercluck. Hope they will fix it soon, along with the nocturnal bug.
