Professions in Rift

Post by Bubba Grizz »

My main has all three gathering profs, Butcher, Forager, and Miner. I then feed these items down to two alts who are production crafters, Apothocary, Armorsmith, Artificer, Outfitter, and Runebreaker.

Right now I am having a difficult time leveling up my Foraging beyond 275. I need to get that quest drop for Pristine Distillate but that is a 285 quest. Is there any place besides Stillmore to get my skill up and are there any plants (instead of lumber) that I can skill up on?

Found my own answer on the Pristine Distillate. I'll have to forage more in the western Stillmore area. Should only be ganked about 10-20 times.
Herein lies the secret of the elusive Pristine Distillate Quest in Rift. Foragers, rejoice, but be warned this requires some patience to acquire.

Pristine Distillate Quest
Quest: Elegent Evolution
Item: Pristine Sap

From: Tempest Flower

Zone: Stillmoor

Requires Foraging 280



Leads To: Master Distiller
10 Tempestflower Stems

10 Twilight Bloom Roots



Reward: Recipe: Pristine Distillate
Requires: Foraging 260

Requires: The Runeguard: Friendly



To Make:
Tempestflower Stems x 1

Twilight Bloom Roots x 2

Aqua Regia x 1



Yields: Pristine Distillate (1)



Good luck foragers, I know there are many apothecaries out there waiting for the Pristine Distillate, and now you have the information on this quest to help all your companions in Rift.

Looks like the next big patch will address several profession issues such as the retarded need for pristine distillate for apothecary dailies.

I love those 15 second crit potions that require a pristine as well :roll:
What a pointless tradeskill.

And those exact potions are the daily!

Wish I would have known before taking that prof.


So, along with making the daily more reasonable, they are categorizing pots to have them on their own cool downs. Having most on the same cool down was just plain stupid.
