1-300 Inscription Herbalism guide
With the 3.0.1 patch on the horizon I, like many others, have opted to take up herbalism to help up-and-coming inscribers (and to make a bit of coin ourselves :D)
There’s plenty of guides out there describing what you need. This will be another one.
The word on the street is that you’ll need lots of herbs to complete this task, that much is obvious. At this point you’ll only need old world herbs because until the Wrath of the Lich King, this skill only goes to 300.
Everything in inscription requires ink, which you acquire from pigments that are milled from the different levels of herbs. Milling is a lot like prospecting in Jewelcrafting. Milling takes a stack of 5 herbs, from which it can get up to 5 pigments (but is usually closer to 2-3.) The pigments are then used to make ink to make scrolls & glyphs.
To get from 1-300 you’ll need many stacks or each pigment level of herb, beacuse milling uses so many.
As an herbalist that’s not taking up Inscription, we’ve got lots of old-school zones to revisit. Keep in mind the numbers of stacks are for 1 inscriber. There’s lots of herbs needed, and therefore lots of gold to be made!
200 (Stacks!) x Alabaster Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 5-10)
100 x Dusky Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 15-20)
100 x Golden Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 22-30)
120 x Emerald Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 32-39)
240 x Violet Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 32-39)
380 x Silvery & Sapphire Pigment Level Herbs: (Item Levels* 52-58)
Although I think it’s a typo on wowhead… it seems the sapphire should be a rare from these herbs… just a heads up.
** What level the item is, not what level is required to use it.
