Aion Gathering Guide

Vitality
Gathering is not so much a tradeskill as much as it is a normal action. This is commonly known as "Collecting" and you will experience it starting at level 1, while you are farming the Angelica.

With each item you collect you will earn a certain amount of experience and you will have a chance to boost your collection level. There is, however, a chance that you will fail the collection as well. If you fail one, you still have the chance to boost your collection level, but you will not obtain an item.

Your collection level is there to determine what items you are able to farm. For example, if you put your mouse over the Angelica you will see that it requires collection level 1. This is represented by the "1p." If you then move over to the Iron Ore you will see that it requires "p15," or "Level 15 collection." So to farm this Iron Ore you must farm the Angelica until you boost your level to 15. Due to the nature of how the leveling works, you may have to farm more (sometimes significantly more) than just one in order to boost your level.

Keep in mind that while farming the various materials you are also obtaining experience (if the harvest was successful). With Angelica, for example, you earn 60 experience for each one you farm. That is not a lot of experience, but it does help give an added incentive to farming. It keeps you from just looking at it as obtaining materials and instead lets you view it as character progression too!

When farming materials keep in mind the following things:
.Only one person can harvest a material at a time
.The new "node" will always spawn with three chances of collecting the material in it. If you just found a node that was left there by someone else, there is a chance that it has less than three. Along with this, it does not mean you can farm it until you obtain three. It means you can try three times. If you fail twice and succeed once, for example, that will deplete that node.
.The nodes always respawn in the same area. As you explore you will undoubtedly notice around mobs you need for a quest or just for many nodes. If you are farming a couple grinding, you will notice that they respawn in the same exact spot. This helps out a lot when it comes to farming.
