Was wondering what you guys would consider more efficient. Farming herb with skygolem or farming both?

Whether i farm starlight, foxflower or fjarnskaggl I always struggle deciding on whether to do both or not.
 
Yeah but how many nodes of foxflower could you get in a hour vs how many nodes of leystone ore?

try one route 5x with ore, 5x without, check out how many more of each... do the math...

but in general ore is not worth dismounting right now. with gathering while mountet + enchant its so much more profit.

Will do,

These are logs without Sky Golem, herbing and mining. Both have slightly different Ilvls, but I notice no difference in deaths.

I use the plugin for ancient mana, blacklists node after gathering the second time. I believe GB2 counts the second time as well. But the amount I have and listed is always pretty close and this is because of the mob that drops phat loot.

Will post herbing ones with Sky Golem after running them.
 
Was wondering what you guys would consider more efficient. Farming herb with skygolem or farming both?

Whether i farm starlight, foxflower or fjarnskaggl I always struggle deciding on whether to do both or not.

i wrote a guide on that might wanna check that out.
 
Well the routes I am running with herbing only are too small it seems because I hit the beginning way too fast for the starlight to re-spawn.

Anyways I hit around 80 starlight nodes per hour on Sky Golem with blacklisted mobs, except for withered hungerer. I am positive you can easily get 100+ starlight roses with an optimized profile and mob included.

So lets say herbing starlight nets at least 100 starlight roses worth 16500.

Mining and herbing averages (without Sky Golem) for me:
63 starlight nodes per hour, around 70 starlight roses per hour worth 11550 (165*70)
100 nodes of leystone ore per hour, estimated around 400 ores including rich deposit worth 4000 (10*400)
24 nodes of felslate ore per hour, estimated around 50 ores including rich deposits worth 2000 (40*50)
Total 17550

My mining ranks are 1, aethril isn't 3 and starlight rose is rank 3. Aethril rank 3 got a decent nerf from what I heard and I can't be bother to pickup mining rank 3 because this takes a while for 2 chars.

My conclusion so far is that if the real attainable number of starlight roses per hour isn't far off from 100 per hour, you don't have a Sky Golem, Aethril rank 3 and a optimized profile, herbing/mining would be an easy way to go, if you do have them, take herbing only.

BUT it still depends on server prices.

Happy to hear some more thoughts about it.

What do I have to add that my bot kills the withered hungerer.
Also is it possible that my bot doesn't attack mobs?
Sometime he turns around and starts to attack them even though I disabled killing mobs between nodes.
