As you embark on your adventure in Brighter Shores, you’ll quickly realize that a wealth of opportunities awaits you. With an abundance of items to collect, recipes to create, and creatures to battle, deciding where to start can be overwhelming. However, every action you take contributes to the growth of your character in the game.
In the initial chapter, Hopeport, you can engage in foraging, which allows you to gather essential materials for crafting various recipes. Let’s explore what you need to know about obtaining Brown Kelp, which is the first material you’ll gather as a Forager.
Where to Locate Brown Kelp
Brown Kelp is a basic resource for foraging at level zero and is crucial for crafting basic healing potions. If you aim to improve both your Alchemy and Foraging skills, stockpiling this item is key, so it’s important to know where to find it.
You can find Brown Kelp in two specific spots within Hopeport: the East Beach and Jellyfish Landing. Both locations are situated to the south and west of the Town Square and the main street of Hopeport.
Visually, Brown Kelp resembles a clump of light-brown fabric, making it easy to identify compared to other items in the vicinity.
As you progress, you’ll be able to upgrade Brown Kelp into higher-tier varieties. Here’s a breakdown of the different types of Kelp that you can gather as a Forager:
|
Kelp |
Forager Level |
|---|---|
|
Brown Kelp |
0 |
|
Green Kelp |
47 |
|
Silver Kelp |
161 |
You can collect all types of Kelp from the same two locations in Hopeport. If you’re a Forager above level 47, you can still gather Brown Kelp by using the Past Action option to select lower-tier items.
