Editing Best places (section)

== [[Alchemy]] ==

=== [[Earth Essence]] ===
* [[Southern cave]], [[Palon Vertas]] (C2)
The cave is just a short walk from the storage, with [[Sulphur]] and [[Coal]] deposits are just a few steps from each other. All you need to bring is [[Swamp Candles]], [[Food]], [[Leather Gloves]] and [[Pickaxe|Pickaxes]].

=== [[Energy Essence]] ===
* [[Crystal Caverns]], [[Desert Pines]] (C1)
Outside [[Crystal Caverns]] Northern entrance you can find [[Tiger Lilly|Tiger Lillies]] and inside are [[Iron Ore]] and [[Silver Ore]]. You only need to bring [[Pickaxe|pickaxes]] and plenty of food to eat while you are harvesting and mixing.

* [[Bethel Mine]], [[Bethel]] (C2)
'''Warning:''' You will need [[Monster Magnetism Perk]], [[Monster Magnetism Cloak]] or a defense of at least 86 (the ignore level for [[Feros]]) to use this mine. The east side of the mine has [[Iron Ore]] and [[Silver Ore]] are just a few steps from each other. Using the [[Palon Vertas]] storage, you can grab [[Tiger Lilly|Tiger Lillies]] in two places on the walk up to Bethel, then bag mix in the mine. Even with [[Feros]] ignoring you, you may need either [[Monster Magnetism Perk]] or bring [[Monster Magnetism Cloak]] for the brief time in Bethel, if [[Desert Chimeran|Desert Chimerans]] still attack you.

=== [[Fire Essence]] ===
* Fire Essence Cave in [[Melinis]] (C2)
This cave contains food like [[Vegetables]] on a box, [[Fruits]] behind the same box, [[Toadstool|Toadstools]] and everything you need to make fire essences. The cave is inside Melinis city, so it is safe. The coordinates for the cave are [130,190]. The closest [[storage]] is [[Hazardel]], so bring essences for the [[Teleport to Range Spell]].

* [[North Zirakgunda]], [[Zirakinbar]] (C2)
This subterranean city is a good source for these essences.  You can find [[Sulfur]], and Roses and [[Red Snapdragons]] are available in the Garden Room inside North Gunda. This map contains [[Fruits]] and nearby there are [[Toadstool|Toadstools]]. Watch out for the [[Hobgoblin|hobgoblins]] upstairs but there are no creatures in [[Zirakgunda]].

=== [[Health Essence]] ===
* [[Morcraven Marsh Caves]] in [[Morcraven Marsh]] (C1)
In [[Morcraven Marsh]], harvest [[Chrysanthemum]] between the South cave entrance and the [[Naralik]] exit. Enter the South ([[Gold Ore]]) cave, then take the boat across to the [[Silver Ore]] and mix.

=== [[Life Essence]] ===
* [[Wyrmgoth Underground]] in [[Aeth Aelfan]] (C2)
Enter the underground through the waterfall. In the northeast side of the underground are [[Silver Ore]] and [[Sunflower|Sunflowers]] are not many steps apart. You can also find some [[Toadstool|Toadstools]] in the underground, if you need food. Warning: [[Hobgoblin|hobgoblins]] spawn at the [[Silver Ore]] and the cave contains [[Armed Female Orc|armed female orcs]], [[Armed Male Orc|armed male orcs]] and a single [[Male Ogre|ogre]] that could get to this area, so its not perfectly safe - keep a [[Monster Magnetism Cloak]] handy or have the [[Monster Magnetism Perk]].

* [[Morcraven Marsh Caves]] in [[Morcraven Marsh]] (via [[Naralik]] Storage) (C1)
From [[Naralik]] storage, harvest [[Sunflower|sunflowers]] west of Ardur the bookseller. Go to [[Morcraven Marsh]], enter the South ([[Gold Ore]]) cave and take the boat across to the [[Silver Ore]] to mix.

* [[Morcraven Marsh Caves]] in [[Morcraven Marsh]] (via [[Morcraven Marsh]] Storage) (C1)
Use the [[Morcraven Marsh]] storage, harvest [[Sunflower|sunflowers]] north of storage, then head into the cave.

=== [[Matter Conglomerate]] ===
* [[North Zirakgunda]], [[Zirakinbar]] (C2)
All ingredients for Matter Conglomerates are found on this map. Swamp candles are found outside while Coal, Iron, Sulfur and all three types of quartz are inside. Bring some [[Pickaxe|pickaxes]] and food to make as many as you can carry. This map contains [[Fruits]] and nearby there are [[Toadstool|Toadstools]].  Watch out for the [[Hobgoblin|hobgoblins]] upstairs but there are no creatures in [[Zirakgunda]].

=== [[Matter Essence]] ===
* [[Crystal Caverns]], [[Desert Pines]] (C1)
Enter [[Crystal Caverns]] by the Southern entrance, and go left (south). As you go round the corner, you will find an outcrop of [[Iron Ore]]. Immediately to the south contained within a stone circle, can be found a fairly impressive growth of [[Quartz]] which is surrounded by both [[Blue Quartz|Blue]] and [[Rose Quartz]]. You only need to bring a few [[Pickaxe|pickaxes]] and plenty of food to eat while you are harvesting and mixing.

It is far more efficient to create the essences here, than to gather the ingredients separately. A matter essence weighs only 1 EMU, but the ingredients weigh 10 EMU.

As a bonus, try using the 'pointy finger' on the Quartz for a nice surprise.

* [[North Zirakgunda]], [[Zirakinbar]] (C2)
This subterranean city is a good source for these essences, as you can find all the Quartz in one location and the [[Iron Ore]] is not very far away. This map contains [[Fruits]] and nearby there are [[Toadstool|Toadstools]]. Watch out for the [[Hobgoblin|hobgoblins]] upstairs but there are no creatures in [[Zirakgunda]]. 

* [[Melinis]] (C2)
Gather up the [[Iron Ore]] in the steel cave and mule it over to the city center where you'll find a plank with all forms of quartz within easy reach. Just sit right down with your bag. Then take everything to [[South Redmoon]] via the boat ride or to [[Hazardel]] storage. Be sure to bring your [[Monster Magnetism Cloak]] or have the [[Monster Magnetism Perk]].

=== [[Spirit Essence]] ===
* [[Morcraven Marsh Caves]] in [[Morcraven Marsh]] (C1)
From [[Morcraven Marsh]] storage bring [[Mercury]] and [[Food|food]], enter the South ([[Gold Ore]]) cave. [[Silver Ore]] is a boat trip away, mix either at gold or silver deposit.

* [[Palon Vertas]] for the adventurous spirit (C2)
You can mine the [[Cinnabar]] on this map to create the [[Mercury]]. Harvest the [[Gold Ore]] from the Gold Cave. Use the boat for Kusamura Jungle, where there is a [[Silver Ore]] deposit.

=== [[Water Essence]] ===
* [[Portland]] [[Eastern Cave|Cave]] to [[White Stone]] City (C1)
Everything you need to make water essence is very close to this cave. Simply bring a few pickaxes along and something to eat. [[Blue Lupine]]s are in Portland just north of the cave entrance. [[Blue Star Flower|Blue Star Flowers]] are inside the cave, just north of the cave exit to Portland. [[Sapphire|Sapphires]] are south of the cave exit to Portland. You can find [[Blue Quartz]] in front of the cave entrance to [[White Stone]] City.

=== [[Iron Bar]] and [[Steel Bar]] ===
* Steel Bar Cave in [[Melinis]] (C2)
Steel Bar cave is in the northeast of Melinis. It contains [[Coal]] and [[Iron Ore]] close to each other. The cave is outside Melinis city, so its not safe to go to - use a [[Monster Magnetism Cloak]] or have the [[Monster Magnetism Perk]] unless you want to fight [[Fluffy Rabbit|fluffies]] and [[Desert Chimeran|desert chimerans]]. The closest storage is the [[Hazardel]] hazardous storage entrance to the north of the city. A good way to make the bars is to first go to the FE cave in [[Melinis]] to make fire essences and harvest food - about half FE and half food - and then continue to the Steel Bar cave, making the bars from scratch.

* [[North Zirakgunda]], [[Zirakinbar]] (C2)
This subterranean city is a good place to make these bars.  You can find [[Iron Ore]] with [[Coal]] close by. This map contains [[Fruits]] and nearby there are [[Toadstool|Toadstools]]. Watch out for the [[Hobgoblin|hobgoblins]] upstairs but there are no creatures in [[Zirakgunda]].
