How do you pick herbs in monster hunter freedom 2?

Answer 1

this introduce the "gathering spots"

i guess you're in the training quests combining herbs and blue mushrooms.

there are 2 spots to gather them, one is to the left as you enter area 1 from base camp and one again to the left as you enter area 1 from area 2. they are indicated by a small yellow flowering plant. hard to miss it.

from this, you must vigilantly look for some spots in an area that is unique to the area

like mushrooms, unique plants, single plants in the snowy area, rock formations, cracks (to mine using pickaxe), floating tiny lights (to catch using bugnets), skeleton remains, nests, and the likes.

bring a felyne fighter on a quest. when they stop following you, observe and they'll go to a spot, that's a "gathering spot". follow them and press "O".
