Farming tracks how skilled you are at working the soil. It rises when you plant, water, and harvest crops in the garden attached to your house.

What it is for

• Farming plots: Buy your first plot bundle for 2000 gold (4 plots). Expand with 1000 gold per extra plot. Premium subscribers can own up to 8 plots; standard accounts cap at 6.
• Crop lifecycle: Plant a seed, water on schedule, protect plant health, harvest when ready. Neglected plants die.
• Harvest window: Crops ready for harvest wait up to 3 hours. If forgotten, they begin to rot and become unusable.
• Harvest notifications: When a crop becomes ready, the app sends a push notification so you can return before it spoils.
• Sprinkler: The Sprinkler store item auto-waters while you are away from the house city.
• Dunmir fertilizer: In the seed picker, toggle Use 1x Dunmir before planting. Costs 1 Dunmir Crystal per crop. Growth time is halved and supreme roll chance gains +10% at harvest. Watering count stays the same; only the interval between waterings shrinks.
• Loots / Harvest Bag: Harvested crops go to your inventory Harvest Bag. Use them for bonuses or sell them.
• Supreme quality: With good Farming skill, timely watering, Dunmir-fertilized plantings (+10%), and a bit of luck (the Horseshoe helps), harvests can roll Supreme. Only supreme crops grant their full special effects.
• Dragonwort: A rare late-game seed whose supreme harvest is a quest key for the Vorgrim alliance hunt, not a consumable buff.

Dunmir fertilizer

Open an empty plot, enable Use 1x Dunmir in the black card above the seed list, then pick your seed.

• Cost: 1 Dunmir Crystal per planting (deducted with the seed's gold price).
• Faster growth: The grow time shown in the picker is cut in half (for example, 3 hours becomes 1 hour 30 minutes).
• Same watering count: A seed that normally needs 6 waterings still needs 6; you simply have less time between each watering. Without a Sprinkler, you must visit the garden more often.
• Better supreme odds: +10 percentage points on the supreme roll when you harvest that crop.

In combat

Farming adds only a small direct bonus to fighting power from the skill percentage itself. The real PvP edge is indirect:

• Blood Rose supreme: +10% attack for one hour (shown on Character buffs).
• Stone Leaf supreme: +10% armor for one hour (shown on Character buffs).
• Permanent +5 skill harvests (Wolf Claw, Ember Fruit, etc.) raise Hunting or Smithing over time.
• Illumara Beans supreme: enemies cannot put trackers on you for two hours. If you are already tracked, eating it breaks that track immediately.

See Farming Crops for the full crop list.

Tips

• You must be at your house city to manage the garden.
• Dunmir fertilizer is optional; normal planting works without crystals.
• Water before health drops; dead crops must be cleared manually.
