Drops are dictated by *regional drop tables* and *modifiers*, with each *region* having a specific list of *resources* you can find while skilling there. Let’s look at the basic *logging* gameplay loop as an example. First, you must navigate to your desired *region*. Once there, you'll choose to go *logging* in the *region's* *wilderness*. Without selecting specific *trees*, your character will begin exploring the *region*. As you encounter *trees*, you'll automatically start cutting them down. This mechanic introduces an element of randomness that results in various *resources* gathered. The *items* you can receive in each *region* are limited only by that skill's respective level. For instance, a level 3 logger in *Pyr* may acquire *cedar logs*, *bamboo shafts*, and *specialty items* from each gather, but not *willow logs*, which require level 4 *logging*. So, per the *regional drop table* below, a level 3 logger has a 35% chance of receiving *cedar logs*, 25% for *bamboo shafts*, 4% for sap, 1% for *ancient fragments*, and 0% for *willow logs*. In addition to the *regional drop tables*, modifiers also play a part in the loot you'll receive. * *Mastery* increases the flat drop rate of specific *items* across *regions*. * Skill level determines which items can be *gathered* while * Better *tools* reduce the time each *gather* takes. *Modifiers allow players to strategize, specialize,* and outmaneuver their peers. More information on each of these *modifiers* can be found in their respective sections.
