Lantadyme Patch: What Does It Mean in OSRS?
The Lantadyme patch is an important feature in Old School RuneScape for players interested in the Farming skill. It offers players an opportunity to grow and harvest Lantadyme herbs, which are valuable for creating various potions, making it a crucial part of the game's economy and a key to efficient gameplay.
Location and Access
Lantadyme patches are found in several herb patch locations around Gielinor. To access these patches, players need to have completed certain quests or have specific levels in other skills:
- Falador Herb Patch: Located near the Falador allotment patch. Accessible to all players.
- Catherby Herb Patch: Situated in Catherby, requires no quest requirements.
- Ardougne Herb Patch: Found in the north of Ardougne, accessible after completing certain diaries.
Planting and Harvesting
To plant Lantadyme seeds, players must have a Farming level of 73. It is advisable to use supercompost or ultracompost to enhance the growth rate and yield of Lantadyme plants. The growth cycle consists of four stages, and using compost reduces the chance of disease.
- Prepare the patch with compost.
- Plant the Lantadyme seed.
- Wait for the growth cycle to complete.
- Harvest the fully grown Lantadyme herbs.
Benefits and Usage
Harvesting Lantadyme yields valuable herbs used in Herblore to make potions such as the Anti-fire potion and Magic potion. This makes Lantadyme farming a lucrative activity for players aiming to improve their Herblore skill or generate profit. Additionally, selling the harvested Lantadyme on the Grand Exchange can be a substantial source of income.
