Sickly Maiden's Hair  

 

I'm not sure if this means anything, but I spent hours and hours foraging in RM and each time I either dropped the items or destroyed them. I never foraged anything other than water flasks and roots. I decided to start putting the foraged items in my inventory and started getting items I hadn't gotten before, like eggs and berries. After about an hour, I got the hair.

I got it on the first try at the inactive druid ring! Only tried foraging 3 other times along the way.

I've been foraging on the old giant hill at the 300, 1600 location now for several hours. forage skill is 189. still no luck -- anyon have anything new to add about getting this or am i just unlucky?

LOC at (-231.81, -287.29, 103.00). from previous post worked for me in 2 forages

Foraged at 2487.7, 729.9, 19.7 (Skill 146)

I say you have a much better chance of finding it at the old HG hill. I got it on the 2nd forage attempt at 91 forage skill. So if your looking for this go around +300, +1600.

ok forage is random yes... but i was all over zone... GOTO 300..1600..... 2nd forage there...DONT listen to people that say its total random ... they got lucky.. <if u like me u wont be at random spots>

I foraged this at the NEW Hill Giant hill after less than an hour, so you certainly don't have to be at the old hill to get it. I strongly suspect that, like all other forages I'm aware of, this one can be found anywhere in the zone, and the chance of finding it in any one place is purely random; in fact, there's nothing you can do to affect what you get from any one forage attempt (other than to pray, maybe).

After a full night of foraging unsuccessfully, I decided to look it up. Boy am I glad I did. After running to 300,1600 I got it on the 3rd forage there. Thanks to all that have posted this info.

So yes, +300,+1600 works. Don't ask, just do it lol :D

4 forages while reading all these other posts during forage repop time and bam, 20 minutes max...old giant hill 300 1600, doesnt seem like a coincidence...

Found this at HG Hill (with orc warrior tents) with my druid, pos 3268 neg 1282, pos 117. 185 forage skill. Good luck!

This is random, hands down. Been at this for well over 3 nights still nothing even with a skill of 160 i cant find anything other than berries, veggies, and rabbit meat. Been all over the zone nothing seems to work. This forage is random.

I forage a few hours where the new hill giants were, went over to where they now spawn and got it within 10 minutes ..... so go to where the hill giants spawned back in the day ....300 1600 round there on the hill where al the mosquitoes flying around and your golden.

I think it doesn't matter where you forage the hair. First I sat about 2 hours near the zoneline to Feerot. Then I went to the hill, where the hillgiants used to spawn (330, 1670) for another 2 hours. Finally I tried to forage it close to the zo to Lake Rathetear, and it's there, where I found it.

had been in Rathe Mountains 2 days foraging on my druid. Finally read the posts went to the loc mentioned for the corrupt hill giant. approx pos 330 pos 1673. hit gorage 2 times and there it was.

If you have played a while this is an old loc for the giant the moved them.

Zoned into Rathe mountains and was just running towards hill giant camp and hit forage button once and got this. Had no idea what it was even for, lol. Sorry have no idea what the loc was. Good luck

I've been foraging at this loc (Nidachi's loc) for about an hour and a half and have a full bag of food and water + some grubs to show for it. I'm 100% sure I'm at the loc and I have yet to show any success for it. I continue to stay out of superstition however. Just a forwarning for further druids.

Went to the loc that nedachi gave was there 20-30 min and got one .

Hey guys ..i been in Rathe Mountians (killing Brother Zephyl)and i forged this item(4 times) at this LOC (-231.81, -287.29, 103.00).I know its the same thing b/c its the only lore item i have in my bags)My forge is maxxed. Hope this helps someone.

2 Hours running around zone foraging = nothing.

20 minutes at the corrupted loc (approx +330, +1670) = Sickly Maiden's Hair

Weird, I also foraged this in Crystal Caverns today. Did they change the location or something?

This is for the Druid Epic 1.5 and they have significantly reduced the drop rate. 65 Druid with 200 forage skill. Been foraging for 3 hours now and nothing.

the item is part of the druid epic 1.5, quote from these boards..

Althele says 'I am certain that you would sense it too, had you been so blessed as to be without sight. My sense of the life of Norrath is greatly heightened without the hindrance of vision. As I can sense that you have at your call the power of the lands, perhaps in the form of the Nature Walkers Scimitar. I can feel an unnatural illness creeping about the edges of Norrath. Please, if you come across anything suspicious bring it to me. I am worried about this cold sickness that I can almost taste. Go with the blessing of the Mother and the speed of the Storm, my child.'


Head to Rathe Mountains and forage until you get "Sickly Maiden's Hair". Return to Althele with it.

This appears to be for Ranger/Druid epic 1.5 if you already have the old epic(s) 1.0. Hand the Maiden's Hair to Althele in EK.

Foraged this in Rathe Mountains. Looks like a bag of fries. Hanging on to it for now...no know use yet. Forage skill is 138.
