Are there any rare ingredients I can farm for good money?

Deathgiggle

I love harvesting stuff out in the world so I was wondering if I should be looking out for anything in particular that is in high demand? What 3 things in your opinion should I watch out for? Or is it all pretty much the same out there? So many herbs and ores and provisioning supplies, I don't know what is sought after cause I don't really craft anything except some food for myself.

Ancestor silk, rubidite ore and columbine.

You can't go wrong just picking flowers, most go for at least 30g each some go for over 100g each. Use the Master Merchant AddOn (if you can) to get a price, or just look round the guild traders.

It amazes me when people walk by ignoring flowers. If it had been a stack of gold coins they'd stop to pick them up - flowers in this game are as good as cash.

Also in addition to the above, if you have a crafter who has 3/3 in extraction passives, just collect every bs/cloth/ww node you can find (the level doesn't matter) and refine them - if you are diligent about it and collect a lot of raw mats, and have points in extraction, when you refine them you will get a fair amount of gold tempers, which can be sold for high prices - Tempering Alloy currently around 7k each, Dreugh Wax around 6k each, Rosin around 2.8k each on PC NA server.

That, and selling provisioning ingredients looted out of containers, is how I make most of my money.

Thank you so much! I loot everything, in fact it's taken me a month to level to 29 because I can't pass up a single container or node without looting or harvesting it.

Columbine and Namira's Rot both sell for a lot.

If you fancy a bit of fishing, you can sell the unprocessed white fish that you catch for a decent amount, or you can skin them yourself for a chance of Perfect Roe which sells for about 9k each on the NA PC server.

Collect any bs/cloth/ww node you see, have a character with 3 ranks in extraction for each skill refine them, and sell any gold tempers you get. Alternatively you can sell the raw mats.

Provisioning ingredients always sell pretty well for me via guild traders - a lot of people overlook them because they are mostly white quality, but some of them sell quickly if you have access to a decent guild kiosk.

Console prices sound so much higher than PC. T Alloys hitting 14k Columbine can sell for 1k each on Xbox NA.

Yes, ancestor silks, rubedo leathers, rubedite ingots (so much the ores cause you have to refine those to get the ingots), alloys and dreugh waxs are all in high-demands.

I think 14k for an alloy is a bit overpriced (or any above 10k).. and 1k for a columbine.. really?! You can find plenty of those laying about in the field everywhere.. even walking in your sleep!

idk

This, and the newer motifs may sell pretty good.

You can also go to Craglorn and Cyrodiil for a chance to get Fortified or Potent Nirncrux from clothing, blacksmithing or woodworking nodes.

Gold and end tier materials mostly.

Ghost-Shot

The equipment crafting materials are decent in large quantities but the main things you should watch for are columbine, namiras rot, and runes, specifically repora and kuta.

If Tamriel One turns out to level all crafting nodes to your current level, then I suspect that there will be large demand for lower tier materials.

A lot of higher level crafters are level 50 and may not have harvesters at the various tiers for all of the lower level materials. And they will likely need to craft for lower level alts and guildies.

Just a thought...

Perfect roe from fishing is by far the one that's worth the most gold.

After that probably nirn stones from crafting writs with characters with 9/10 in a crafting skill (10/10 will not send your writ turn-in to Craglorn and won't get you enough resources back to be worthwhile).
