Usage

First Aid

Ginseng is primarily used in first aid, reducing exhaustion by 2 when consumed. It is the only item that directly reduces exhaustion.

It is useful for a short burst of energy, particularly when exhausted to the point of being unable to run whilst chased.

Main article: Foraging

Ginseng can only be found via foraging, finding 2-8 at a time. It will never be found unless the player has the herbalist trait or has read The Herbalist magazine.

Like other plants, ginseng cannot be found during winter. It is most common in deep forest, however can also be found in forest, vegetation, farmland and farm zones.

Park rangers will have a massive chance increase in finding ginseng, whilst veterans, farmers, chefs, burger flippers, doctors, nurses, fitness instructors and being unemployed will have a small chance increase.

Having the herbalist trait will further increase the chance of finding ginseng, whilst having the former scout, hiker, hunter, gardener, outdoorsman, cook or nutritionist traits will provide a minor increase.
