Ineffable Wingbolt Rent-an-Ihrno Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 During my last playthrough which I finished yesterday, I encountered a forest filled with gremlins and gorgons in eastern Karnold province. If you beat these, you get to some patches of so-called "savory herbs". They don't appear to be used in any potion, and I can't find anyone who wants them. What are they there for?

Understated Ur-Drakon Nioca Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 There's a courier quest (not a job dispatch) between Lennus/Squiggus and Storm port. I think, once you agree to the job, Storm port will accept Savory Herbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Rent-an-Ihrno Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Oh! I know that quest, but never bothered accepting it. I guess I don't like the idea of my own custom-made heroes should run petty courier routes. That explains everything, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 It allowed you to increase your profit since you wouldn't have to pay for buying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulate Vlish Maledictis Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 That courier route was the way I made most of my money in Exile 3... I was peeved when they limited it in Avernum. But really, it's for the best. It's still a great way to make a bit of cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 What I miss in A3 is being able to reset the job listings, which is how I make most of my money early in the game. And I also miss how I used to make a ton of money in Lorelei by buying cheap potion ingredients and then selling the potions I made for a good size profit.

Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 In E3 the courier route was the only option for purchasing spells like Quickfire and Shockwave. I'd also use the money to outfit my whole party in mithril armor, and buy my spell casters Micah's gloves. In A3 I purchased Hawkes Manse with the courier money. However, A3 has a lot of good loot, so you have it made either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit it's a bit tedious, but it's just as effective nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma JP Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I was able to get all the money I wished by buying herbs at the nephil village (very cheap), making potions and selling them in Stormport. Then I bought mandrake root from the hermit on the isles and made as many skill potion as I could. In fact it was too easy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 It's quicker to do that in Lorelei, because you can buy ingredients and sell the potions right there in town. The only thing is that in Lorelei, you need some Anama rings to get the very cheap herbs. And if the game is too easy for you, just change the preferences to make it harder.
