When starting herbilism, try to find a few herbs (that you can farm!)
close together. Right click on it (BUT DON'T LOOT) and u will get a skill
up (if its appropriate to your level).
-Repeat: Don't loot it.
Go to the nearest herb, and do the same. make sure not to loot that one.
Go to whatever other close ones and loot the last one that is close.
Go back to first one and second (etc) in order and on a few of them you
should be able to skill up.
(hope u like it)
