Do plants grow back in Kingdoms of Amalur

kingdoms-amalur-reckoning

I've been running around Amalur picking most of the glowing plants and trees that dot the landscape. Since my alchemy is so low, however, I'm doing a pretty awful job at actually receiving any items for my troubles.

Do plants respawn in KoA? How long does it take?

Best Answer

Yes, they do grow back. I don't know specifically how long it takes, but here's an idea: I got a house (Gossamer End) in Canneroc, Webwood, and upgraded it to grow some plants in the basement. I return to this house after each quest and by that time any plants that I had picked on my way out have often grown back. I can say that some plants (*seem to) take longer to grow than others, but for the most part, they don't take long. Maybe a day or two in game.

Unrelated: I just wanted to add this... Do the forests in this game conjure thoughts of James Cameron's Avatar? They do for me. Okay, time to stop talking and getting back to playing.
