SUPPLIES & PLANTS

The purpose of this page is to make it a bit clearer what sort of wild-growing plants and useful items can be scavenged in Adstringendum and with what frequency. This is by no means an exhaustive list, only a guideline: much of this is up to player discretion, with the exception of those things that require mod permission.


This list is out of date as of August 1, 2014. We are working on bringing a list compatible with the new location and appreciate your patience as we do.


→ SUPPLIES

COMMON

These items can be found with little difficulty, and it's fair to assume your character has as much as they need in most circumstances.

- Broken and irreparable electronics and electronic parts

CANNOT BE SCAVENGED

Some items will not be available for scavenging, and characters will have to farm, hunt, or trade for them. These include:

- Dairy products (cheese, milk, butter)
- Fresh meat
- Fresh eggs

- Fresh fruits or vegetables (edible wild plants can be found by foraging, but most recognizable fruits and vegetables will require cultivation.)


PLANTS

COMMON

These plants can be found with little difficulty in the wastelands, and even in the safezone in some areas such as parks.

- Grasses
- Weedy herbs (clover, dandelions, burrs, nettles)
- Bushes (yew, boxwood, juniper, creosote)

- Small/scrub trees (scrub oak, azalea)
- Lemongrass
- Small cacti

UNCOMMON

These plants are a rarer sight than the ones listed above, but by no means unusual to come across in the wastelands with a little looking.

- Large trees (pine, cottonwood, oak, elm)
- Mild medicinal herbs, such as aloe vera and willows
- Hardy wildflowers such as snapdragons, hyacinths, violets, columbine, easter and canadian lilies

- Cattails, irises, waterlilies
- Lake prunes (a kind of lake weed with a small prune-shaped growth that proved to be edible)

RARE

These plants are rare and can only be found in the more wild zones of the wastelands. If your character often ventures there it's safe to assume they can find these plants with some looking, but it isn't an every day occurrence.

- Desirable tea herbs such as lavender, chamomile, mint
- Hemlock, deadly nightshade, and other highly poisonous plants
- Most common culinary herbs, such as fennel, sage, rosemary, and oregano

- Desirable edible greens, such as mustard or watercress
- Wild-growing plants with edible seeds: chickpeas, amaranth, teosinte, wild rice
- Pokeberry trees

REQUIRES PERMISSION

Finding any of these plants require permission. Feel free to PM the mod account or leave a comment here with any requests, including world-specific plants.

- Exotic spices such as saffron, paprika, nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon, especially those usually in powdered form
- Peppers (bell, chilis), garlic, onions
