level 25 mains

[MrMT]

Where are the best places to get these?

I am feeling a bit stuck... although I guess I should just grind (yeesh) with the low level vendor trash.

Most of the things that drop level 1 ingredients seem to drop level 25s as an uncommon-ish event for Butchering. I don't know about the other professions. I found myself going back to Tier 1 at Tier 2 in order to harvest enough materials to get to Apothecary 50....I hear that's not necessary but it felt necessary at the time.

On the bright side I've never had to do this since...in Tier 3 my apothecary is already good enough to make potions two steps beyond what I can currently use, and I've so many spare ingredients that I can vendor the ones I don't care for.

Unless you want to use the high potion, you don't need 25 mains. You can lvl from 1-51 on lvl 1 ticks and leeches. I would use leeches cause ticks seem to require more stabilizing ingredients.

Both butchering and Scavanging produce level 25 main ingredients for Apothecary. Also level 25 seeds produce level 25 mains for Apothecary. However, you dont need level 25 mains as Apothecary will continue to level up at a slower rate with just level 1 ingredients.
