IntroHerblore can be an expensive skill to train if you don't collect the ingredients yourself, however there are a few ways that will make very good profits. The skill is unavailable when you start but is unlocked by completing the Druidic Ritual quest. Like all skills you start with very limited choices of potions to create, but you learn how to make more as you become more skilled. The skill isn't exactly complicated: You start out with water filled vial, add the herb (primary) ingredient, and then add the secondary ingredient. Herbs generally come from monster drops or are grown using the farming skill. Before herbs can be used in potions they must be cleaned, as they are originally grimy. Cleaning herbs doesn't require any tools and is done with a single click. Remember that you can only engage in the herblore skill on a members server as it is a members only skill.
This guide will cover all aspects of the herblore skill, some only briefly as there is a more detailed guide on some of the subjects.Shop
Herblore shops are located in Taverly, Entrana, and Gu'tanoth
For 200 gp each, Zahur, in Nardah, will clean the herbs you don't have the level for.(or herbs you don't want to clean yourself)
