Our goal with this set is to go out and gather a ton and our set goals are the following:
- 3/3
Imparted Wisdom - Gives us more rare loot
- 4/4
Botanist - boosts many types of gathering
- 3/3
Geologist - boosts bone piles/mining nodes/special items
- 1/1
Entomologist - lets us kill bugs for materials
- 1/1
Outdoorsman - if you decide to fish/grill/capture eggs
- 3/3
Intimidator - QoL improvement
- 2/2
Aquatic/Oilsilt Mobility - QoL so you don't get slowed
There are luckily a ton of different armors that you can chose from for most of these options and you can use decorations to cover 4/5th's of the above. Which means we need to focus on getting Imparted Wisdom from gear which is a bit tricky because this only comes from one of the hidden sets that come from trading/auto gathering from the different villages. You need to do side quests in the different villages to unlock these features.
