At level 24,you will receive a remote quest directing you to Irene. Once you have a briefchat with her, you will be directed to go to Saint’s Haven. Once you reach thebig city, open the System menu, then click the Select Channel button. You willsee a tab on the left of the Channel List labeled “Farm”. You can probablyguess what this leads to.
Pro-Tip: Youcan only reach the Farm channels in Saint’s Haven, so if you don’t see thechannels, you’re probably in the wrong town!
Old Man MauryHas a Farm
In additionto the standard cows, chickens and the like, Old Maury has vast fields andrivers that are just begging to be exploited.
In additionto the various florae and faunae on the farm, you can also find Mose, theStorage guy, and Cox the affable Marketplace master. You’ll also find Old ManMaury, who holds the quests that will teach you 3 invaluable skills: Farming,Fishing and Cooking.
Each one ofthese skills supports the other, in a triangle of power that leaves you withsome awesome items.
Master Chef
Masteringthe fine art of cooking is the key to unlocking some of the most valuablerestorative, defensive and offensive items in Dragon Nest.
Cookingrequires a number of Utensils, Ingridiants, and Recipes to craft yourscrumptious meals.
Utensils andRecipes can be purchased from Maury, and Ingrediants range from simple itemsthat drop in dungeons to fish and vegetables harvested from fields.
Cookinglevels ups, so you’ll have to start with simple recipes and repeatedly cookthem to learn more advanced recipes.
One of themost vital recipes is the Apple Juice of Life, which can allow you to resurrectin the Green or Sea Dragon Nests. You can also learn recipes that will allowyou to temporarily increase your physical and magical damage, your elementalresistance and more.
Fishing forComplements
Fishing requires3 things: a fishing pole, bait and patience. It also requires a suitablefishing area, which can only be found in Maury’s Farm fields. There are 4Fishing Holes on every Public Farm, each one with its own assortment of Magic,Rare and Epic fish.
You canchoose to auto-fish, which will allow you to cast your line and wait for thefish to bite or fish manually, by pressing and holding the left mouse key tokeep your fishing gauge in the sweet spot. Manual fishing requires a bit moreskill, but it can substantially reduce the amount of time you spend fishing.
BasicFishing poles and bait can be purchased from Maury, but expert anglers would bewise to pick up a Tough Fishing Rod and Marvelous Bait from the Dragon Vault,as these 2 items combined will increase your auto-fishing skills by 50\% andyour success at catching fish by 10\%.
GardenVariety
Farming is agreat way to spend your time away from the hassles and dragons of Altera. Inorder to farm, you need a Sickle, a Watering Can and Seeds, all of which can bepurchased from Maury. Each one of these tools is needed to complete thethree-step process of harvesting crops. Initially, you will only be able toplant level 1 seeds, but as you progress, you will be able to level up yourfarming skill, and plant higher level seeds.
The firststep to farming is to find a plot of land. You may want to hop around thepublic farm channels a few times to find an empty spot, but if you don’t, thereare always a few spots open in the center of the farm. Use the Find Locationbutton on the Farm Board to track down the perfect place to plant your crop.
If you wantto make sure that you always have ample plots to farm on, purchase a Bonus FarmPass, which will grant you one additional plot of land for 30 days.
Afterfinding the right spot, you must click on the mound of dirt and select whichseeds to plant. You can also purchase Growth Accelerator from the Dragon Vault,which will speed up the process of any crop planted.
Your cropwill sprout once its timer reaches zero, but like any plant, it will need waterto survive. Be careful when timing your watering, because if your H20 meterhits zero, your crop cannot be harvested.
Onceyour crop is ready, make sure you have your Sickle, and click on the crop toharvest it. Once harvested, all crops are directly moved to your Crop Granary(AKA: Maury). Be careful not to let your crops sit in the Granary for too long,because they will eventually rot, and disappear forever.
