I have no use for the acorns but need the leaves. After 1 hour I have 5 acorns and one leaf. I would rather gouge my eyeballs with ice pick than look for these,but now that I have 1,I must keep looking :(
Mesa info Evergreen leaf will spawn in 16 possible spots around the largest willow tree near Kathrine. Acorns spawn in 5 possible spots on the east side. Only 2 will be up at any time. Either 2 leafs, 2 acorns or both at once. Spawn time for leafs can be anywhere from 1 second to 5 minutes but generally within 1 minute. Acorns spawn time is about an hour.
Ducking helps see the spawns easier. Moving slow helps a lot as they are minuscule. Being short is even better, like a halfling. Turning gamma to 75 or higher helps. Turning off 1.1, 1.4, 2.0 and radial flora in options is extremely helpful.
After hanging around for 2 and a half hours I got 76 leafs and 15 acorn at the mesa. Finding them at Gfay is like looking for a black marble on a black floor...in the dark. You may get lucky but most likely not.
Leafs are for dyes that can be used for armor or green hand made back packs. The back packs sell well in the bazaar due to their 10 slots, giant capacity and 10% weight reduction. Other colors have the same but green is harder to find than say...black. I made a good chunk of change since I am a 199 tailor. If your looking to sell back packs, there are easier colors to obtain but green goes with my gear color so I collected a lot in case I failed at making some.
These are the listed points I have on my maps but I am not sure how mapping works so I have post them all.

Thanks that helped alot, for some reason they all seem to be floating, seeing the acorns is like trying to see a piece of paper from the side. After i turned off the pixels and jacked up the gamma spotting changes of color was alot easier. =)

Turning off 1.1, 1.4, 2.0 and radial flora in options is extremely helpful.
I second that ... to explain: the options mentioned above (they're in the Advanced Options in Display page) make the ground look like a well-grown grass while turning them off makes the ground flat and muddy-brown. And on the brown floor you can see the green groundspawns very clearly.

Being old school, I decided to get one of these from greater faydark rather than Goru Mesa. Unfortunately I didn't find any at the locs mentioned, so either they weren't up or have moved since the zone was changed. In any case, from randomly running about I found two at (1340, -970) in Greater Faydark on top of each other. They had a light green leaf graphic on the floor, rather than the light green polygon appearance they did a decade ago. They're still minuscule however!
I agree. The area around the willow tree has two evergreen leaves and two acorn ground spawns. It's a very small area to search in and avoids messing around with /locs. (The willow area is by where Kathryn spawns).
I would hate that anyone has to search for these..
Note: The extract is found around the Willow in Mesa and at these locs in G Fay: (63, 166); (596, 200); (638, -96); (-411, -57); (962, 814); (-191, 7); (90, -400); (30, -2); (403, -440); (555, -234); (669, 774); (717, 748); (197, -483); (427, -321); ... Goru`kar Mesa Greater Faydark (also see Kelethin) Wakening Land
I'm not to smart so it took me about 4 hours to figure this out... The EASY way..
Go to Mesa.. in the AREA with Kathryn there are several large trees; go to the one that is LIGHTER in color than the others.. looks like there is a light on it or something but its clearly tan while all the others are brown.
type out /showgrass off
Log out of the game and back in.. be sure the only plants you see now are the sunflower looking Silverspun petals and the trees and any windwillows standing around...
Now on the ground... VERY tiny at the base of the lighter tree you wil see VERY tiny FLAT leaves these will either be Windwillow Acorns or Evergreen leaves.. they are REALLY hard to see they are are so small... I would describe them a one half of a green skittle sitting on the ground. Yeah stupid small.
Okay... loot all the ones you find.. I found 6 Acorns and looted them all.. I came back about 1 hour later and looted them all again and the 5th one it was the Evergreen Leaf.
GL and if you found this helpful please give me a good rating... Other people figured this out... and didn't post it... I'd like to save you a few hours.
(FYI these are ALL over GFay BUT they are green and so is the ground there so they are IMPOSSIBLE to see... the ground in Mesa is brown so they are at least a different color)
I went back to that Light Willow and I started searching it (as if i didn't have enough) but I discovered alot more drops 5-6 every time, and I got a evergreen leaf every time. I believe my initial searches didn't go far enough from the base of the tree.. just be sure when you search you look hard all around the base of the tree the leaves are all over the place.
Remember if I saved you a ton of time... give me a good rating so this stays up top and someone else can get the help they need.
U are correct in that turning the grass objects off with the chat command /showgrass off helps alot. I also maxed out the resolution in the OPTIONS - Display tab - video modes. This brought out alot more detail and the leaves and acorns stuck out like sore thumbs. They ground spawn within spitting distance from the "charm of lore" quest "silverspun petals" plant. (the red flower at the base of the tree). Well it seems that the Evergreen Leaf only spawns around the base of this tree. After 1/2 hour I have 10 leaves and 6 Windwillow Acorn. Gonna take a look in GFay see if I can find them there. Well just left GFay and did not find any there. After searching several of the locations listed in this thread, I came away empty handed. I have picked up a stack now in mesa on the dryad plateau so I would assume that they look the same in GFay. Well back in GFay with the leaves I got in mesa. Drop one on the ground and sure enough they disappear. After clicking the ground multiple times I picked it up. Dropped it again in another spot and they fade right into the ground. Will keep you all posted.
I had left a very discriptive post on how to find these... and it was appearantly removed... why I couldn't imagine.
The easiest way to get these is to go to the Goru Mesa... okay... now go to the elevated area in which you would find that annoying fairy chick Kathrine...
There are several trees... ONE tree is lighter in color than all the rest.. its in the middlish... it clearly looks different than the others...
At the base of this tree look DIRECTLY at the ground... and search for the leaves. They are very small and hard to see. Go round and round the base of this tree they spawn all over the place.
Oh yeah and they actually have PH's... some sort of Acorns. The respawn is 1 hour. On each trip around the base of the tree I would find 5-8 acorns or evergreen leaves... After three days of searching the green grass of Gfay and other zones I found this spot and scored 2 full stacks in a single afternoon.
Although... the quest I was working on... was very worth it... Dragoste effect PWNS.
Checked all the posts this was the only spot in GFay that I could find any. There were 3 or 4 in the area around this spot they are hard to find but not impossible they look like a single green leaf stay close to the ground and walk around you will find them.
Hello: If you look aroud the zone, anywhere really, you can find these as a fairly common Ground Spawn. Just need to look around for it. I find them in Greater Faydark and Butcherblock Mountains when hunting with my Newbie toons there.
