Where do you find Columbine?

ZeFeZ

Been searching for 2 hours now, and only found 1....

Jura23

Writs, crafting survey pergamons (aquired via writs too), searching environment (hollow City?) and... heavy sacks!

....cyrodiil..

I bought everything I could find after realizing how easy its to make money from IC. Players havent realized it yet that everything should be more expensive, so buy now!

There's some in Stormhaven and Rivenspire but its sparse. Some people say there's more plants in Craglorn than other zones but I haven't verified.

Best way to find columbine is to look for something else. Or decide that for the next hour your are going to focus on questing and not gather any mats. You'll trip over them.

I don't think there are more plants in Craglorn, but I think it is easier to see nodes and plants in Craglorn because said nodes don't blend into the environment.

This.

Columbine and Bugloss. Both are annoying, because I have to stop and pick them. They sit there and taunt me until I do.

Columbine is everywhere. It got a stealth buff and tends to spawn a lot more now. I find it all over the place, whereas a few months ago I'd be lucky to find one or two a day, now I can find 20-30 a day without even trying.

Columbine, Bugloss, Mtn Flower tend to grow more in open, rolling hills type areas.
All the flowers share nodes so harvest everything and next spawn it may be something more desireable.

Mushrooms tend to grow next to trees, rocks and, of course caves.
Again the nodes are shared.
I do seem to find a lot of Namira's Rot in Wrothgar

Turning grass off makes it easier to spot them all.

Run around Hollow City in Cold Harbor.

Your welcome!

It's a little tough to see in grassy areas without the keen eye passive. Hollow City & Coldharbor seems easier.

I think they nerfed columbine in the latest update. I used to get tons from writs and surveys (with 4 max alchemists)- but Wrothgar gives me none. Thinking about respeccing a few characters to lower their alchemy skills and go back to doing Craglorn writs.

Forestd16b14_ESO

Any where really. Been finding alot more in Wrothgarth how ever.

You find it on guild stores for a fixed price because a cartel of unscrupulous players are farming it and trying to keep the price high by colluding and price fixing.

I found some around the Davon's Watch Wayshrine.

Refuse2GrowUp

on the ground

If specifically looking for it, I often do laps in Cold Harbor Hollow City. Just do a lap or two around the city; you will find it all over in the grassy spots

From my experience. there are four types of harvesting nodes for alchemy: Mushroom nodes, nirnroot nodes, water hyacinth nodes, and the rest.

Mushroom nodes only spawn mushrooms, nirn and hyacint only spawn their respective plant, and the final type can contain any of the remaining flowers.

So basically, anywhere you see a lady's smock, wormwood, bugloss, mountain flower etc. etc, there could be a columbine spawned next time you pass by, provided you or someone else picked up the flower currently blocking the node and gave it a chance to respawn.

Morale of the story: pick up all flowers you come across. If you only pick the good flowers and let the bad ones there blocking the node, there will be less and less good flowers to pick.

Tell yourself you're looking for Water Hyacinths and loop round ColdHarbour. ZoS hears everything and does the opposite.

In my bank

If you spend a skill point on Keen Eye: Reagents you will find a lot more alchemy mats of all kinds.

I believe Columbine is in Colorado somewhere.

Agreed! I have found it in several different places, just a matter of keeping your eyes open I suppose!

THEDKEXPERIENCE

You could just buy it from me since I bought every one in Belkarth this week.

Wasn't there some famous shooting there, with Micheal Moore or something?

Can we all just stop and talk about the crazy wizard fertilizer it must have taken to get the flowers in Cyrodiil 4 damn feet tall.

Same place as these:

Shardaxx

It seems to grow mostly in patches of green grass dotted around the more arid areas like craglorn, altho I've found it in cyrodiil too.

Heindrich

I've been trying to tell my friends this for the longest time
