	Starting out a bit higher than its Forage counterpart, Plains foraging has a base step amount of 90 steps, and can be brought as low as 57 steps per action with only a 60% Work Efficiency bonus. The drops from the activity is significantly better as well, with [[Flax]] and [[Hemp]] being teased as ingredients needed for the upcoming two new skills (Hunting and Tailoring). It has a [[Wheat]] droprate which is slightly higher when starting out, but eventually dropping to 12.676%. The activity is found in both [[Norsack Plains]] and [[Casbrant Fields]], the latter being the closest to Kallaheim, if you bring your skis!

	The tool which will improve your chances of getting the BIS the most, is of course '''the craftable sickles'''. Ideally you wont start the grind without at least a [[Steel sickle]] of excellent quality, but preferably a [[Hydrilium sickle]] of excellent or better quality. This should be your number 1 priority.		The tool which will improve your chances of getting the BIS the most, is of course '''the craftable sickles'''.
